A fast and furious new Matchmaker in Wonderland novel from the New York Times bestseling author of Daring in a Blue Dress. Trying to escape her sheltered life, Paulina Rostakova jumps at the chance to get behind the wheel of a vintage car, as a reality show contestant reenacting an historic 1908 car race across the US, Asia, Russia, and Europe. Dixon Ainslie has nothing to lose by entering the race, except the rut he's been in since the death of his girlfriend. But he never expected to gain a wife. The producers want Dixon to join forces with Paulie-and pretend to fall in love and get married. But as their scripted courtship takes off, Dixon and Paulie will have to take a detour into reality to turn the sparks flying between them into a passion with staying power.

      Paulina Rostakova (Paulie), wishing to escape her wealthy father's overbearing ways, joins a reality TV show that reenacts a race around the world that originally took place in 1908. Narrator Saskia Maarleveld portrays Paulie, who wears a corset and suffragette costume while driving a finicky vintage car. Sparks fly the moment Paulie meets fellow racer Dixon Ainslie, an English aristocrat subtly portrayed by Brian Hutchison with a light English accent. The chapters alternate between Paulie's and Dixon's journals, detailing the action during the race and in the bedroom. Although both narrators read in such a restrained manner that some of the slapstick humor is lost, they make up for it with strong engagement and fitting character accents.
