Why do men like intelligent women? Because opposites attract.
Kit Kincade, American, with diamond-studded ears and friends in low places, believes women are little more than a life support system to an ovary.
Shelly Green, pinstripe-underpanted, cultured, classical guitarist, thinks optimism is an eye disease and hates all men. The perfect pair? Yes, according to a 'Desperate and Dateless' reality TV competition.
A computer has matched them — physically and emotionally — with huge financial rewards if they can survive their five-star honeymoon on a paradise island. Kit and Shelly meet the day they are to be married… and it's hate at first sight.
