Voluptuous private eye Savannah Reid's cravings for tasty treats come second only to her appetite for adventure. Of course, every girl needs a little down time, and when things are quiet, Savannah loves nothing more than to curl up in bed with a box of chocolates, a steaming Irish coffee topped with whipped cream, and an even steamier romance novel - preferably one with Lance Roman on the cover. Lance Roman is everything Savannah has ever wanted in a man: hunky, handsome, and incredibly sexy. Savannah can't believe her luck when her friends surprise her with a special birthday treat: the opportunity to compete for Lance s affections on a reality TV show called "Man of My Dreams." But life in the castle soon takes a sinister turn. No sooner has Savannah started strutting her stuff than one of the show's producers, Tess Jarvis, turns up dead - tragically felled by a carton of Killer Fudge ice cream. Savannah's got her work cut out for her. When she's not working overtime charming Lance Roman, she's racing to uncover all sorts of surprises about the late Tess. As "Man of My Dreams" quickly descends into the worst kind of soap opera, all the juiciest, most unpredictable drama is taking place off-camera.
