Marry Your Billionaire by CJ Anaya

Six years ago, Midge Knightly walked away from her trust fund, her Hollywood producer father, and the expectation that she would join the family business. Avoiding handsome playboys with hidden agendas was just an added bonus. Now one semester shy of graduation, she is shocked to discover her scholarship has lost its funding. Her estranged father is having problems of his own. A contestant on his latest reality TV series has cancelled two months before shooting. His solution? Midge gets her trust fund back if she stands in as a potential marriage candidate for the dating series Marry Your Billionaire. Twenty women competing for one arrogant guy. Not Midge's cup of tea. Agreeing to this proposition sucks her back into the world she happily broke ties from, but no trust fund equals no college degree.

 

First Line:

 

"Unbelievable! Madelyn Knightly -Midge to her friends-took one look at the handsome stranger who'd had the audacity, the outrageous nerve, to steal her usual seat at Café Canape and felt an irrational pang of anger surge to the surface."
