“Welcome to the beautiful island of Mahé in Seychelles! I’m your host, Tom
Peters, and you,” says the man in front of us, spreading his arms out wide, “are the handpicked
contestants for the premiere season of Date, Mate, Fate: Celebrity Edition.” He pauses for
inserted applause. No, really—a crewman standing off-camera holds up a sign that says, “Insert
Applause.”
When the clapping has met the appropriate meter level, Tom continues.
“Several faces here, I’m sure you’ll recognize; celebrities from an array of arenas, including sports, the
big screen, and even the Olympics have been generous enough to take time from their grueling
schedules to join us. And each of them was asked to invite a plus one—anyone—of their
choosing, whom we also thank for being here.”
I already feel cramped in my own skin, the endless barrage of cameras and
crew filming our every move and reaction in full, intimidating effect. And to top it all off, I’ve just been
declared a second-class citizen. Bonus.
I don’t join in on the clapping and whistling; the others’ enthusiasm is far
from what I’m feeling. Instead, I burrow deeper into Oakley’s side, shielding my face behind his burly
arm and clamping down tighter on his hand. I’m so far removed from my comfort zone, consisting of
community college and a job at an off-the-beaten-path truck stop in a Podunk town. But it appears I’ve
also landed in a certain circle of hell I’m having trouble comprehending—despite the
generous one-week notice.
I knew from the moment I read the blurb that Matched was going to be an amazing book. I will be the first to admit that I am addicted to reality television and the thought of reading a book along the same lines was exciting. Matched was like watching The Real World, mixed with Big Brother and combined with The Bachelor/Bachelorette. The storyline dragged me in from the first page and didn’t let me go until the end and even then I didn’t want it to be over. It was really like a TV show that I went through withdraw over when it ended.
The show Date, Mate, Fate: Celebrity Edition brings together 8 sexy men and 8 equally hot women competing to find their soulmates for charity. Hot tempers, out of control hormones and unfiltered mouths make this the show to watch and the book to read.
I am keeping this review very vague if you notice. Why you ask? Well the answer to that is because you need to meet these characters, these personalities through unbiased eyes. You will think you made up your mind about someone and then BAM! your mind will be changed on a dime.
I won’t even tell you who my favorites are because that is still giving away too much information. What I can tell you in be ready for a non-stop, energy filled, hormone inducing, story that will rival anything you have ever read. Not only is it hot but there are also moments that will tug at your heartstrings and bring tears to your eyes.
