The Ex Files - Mayhem and Maddie

Madison Blake is divorced, bummed and adjusting to the single life. Everyone keeps telling her to move on, but she just can't figure out exactly what she's supposed to move on to. Sounds like every chick-lit book known to man, doesn't it? Well, not quite...

Maddie takes a lot of advice from her friends and her lame counselor, who's taught her to keep an emotional journal and use life-affirming words, like "I will". But she still doesn't feel much better, until one night she meets a great guy...in a bunny suit. And joins a group of divorced women for a little divorcee therapy. Oh, and karaoke...

Maddie's life begins to change rapidly as she experiences a fetish, a hot guy in an animal costume and three women who will change her life forever. Maddie's being dragged into moving on, so can she leave the past behind and find her happy place?

Who's Bride is She Anyway?

Whose Bride Is She Anyway? is the most popular reality show on TV, featuring a bride, twenty potential hunk 'o licious grooms, a jury and a whole lot of cash at the end of the matrimonial aisle.

The rules? Spend a month on a tropical island (as if you didn't know that) and let a jury of your peers and one high school friend choose your man for life. If you can manage to stay married for a year- you get the booty.

A million bucks.

Tara Douglas doesn't care about the booty. Once taunted and humiliated for being an overweight geek, Tara is now a svelte thirty-something looking for revenge and it ain't as the bride.

The bride is Kelsey Little, ex Evanston High cheerleader and all 'round bitch. Kelsey Little was responsible for Tara's ultimate humiliation in high school.

Tara wants to be picked to become jury foreman and head up the groom picking task force, choosing a groom that will leave Kelsey cryin' in her Miss Clairol. Tara's quest for revenge takes an unexpected course when she meets August Guthrie, a contestant on the show. August is the forbidden fruit-jury members aren't supposed to dip their hand in the hunk jar and Tara could be caught elbow deep, not only in August Guthrie heaven, but in the guilt she begins to feel for ever wanting petty revenge.

August, a former dork himself, came to Whose Bride Is She Anyway to win the woman he thought was his high school wet dream. He wants to prove to Kelsey that he's no longer just the A he helped her get in English and guess what? August ain't a geek anymore either… Then he meets Tara Douglas and all of a sudden the ex pom-pom queen of August's lusty, adolescent dreams becomes a big, fat, blonde nightmare.

Tara and August share chemistry, hell they have biology and trigonometry too and it's a force that can't be denied, unless little things like sabotage, treachery, deceit, clandestine meetings and an airtight contract that could leave you bankrupt with the paparazzi breathing down your neck for an eternity are a problem…
