Description
Silver Jennings is a paralegal who likes things to be organized, including her sock drawer. She finds herself out of her comfort zone when she appears on TV show Cupid in Control and wins a romantic holiday with Mark the woodworker.
Mark is a complete Neanderthal who looks terrible in a suit and refuses to put the cap back on the toothpaste properly, the jerk. He is not Silver’s type at all. Not that Silver wants a relationship, after her ex-boyfriend broke her heart. But perhaps Silver and Mark have more in common than at first glance. Could friendship at least be on the cards?
Of course, they have to survive the holiday first, which is being filmed by a camera crew eager to capture every embarrassing personal flaw.
Then there’s Silver’s secret past, which she’d really rather not discuss. Although some secrets just seem to get dragged out into the open…

It didn't linger in areas or make them go by too fast, they shows just enough. The few pictures in the book were intriguing and added a small surprise element while you read.

I enjoyed the Unstable Orbit very much. I laugh Mark could not lie, Silver was bossy. But a very cute read. I would recommend it to friends.
Thank you, NetGalley for the advance copy to review.

I liked this book. The writing style was good; the author was straight to the point and neat chapters provided the info to follow the story without too much flowery text.
The first half of the book was better than the second, which is really unusual. The story started well and I was hooked pretty quickly. However, the second half of the book felt like it was rushed for a happy-ever-after ending, it just didn’t come together in a way that I’m used to.
There were no twists or surprises. So I found myself a bit deflated when I got to the epilogue.
3.5 stars from me. The story was just a bit flat. However, I loved the author’s style of writing and will definitely read other work from them!
