Blurb/Summary:

Seven days, seven challenges. Twelve strangers. Eight thousand cameras. Only one winner.

Welcome to The Ant Farm, a social study in the wilds of interior Alaska, documenting the dynamics between a dozen competitors as they take part in a series of physical and psychological face-offs. With five hundred grand up for grabs at the end of the battle royal, the stakes are high and the tension blazing.

Could the seemingly mild-mannered nice guy win it all? The cutthroat alpha female? The strongest or the smartest, the idealist or the cynic? It’s anyone’s guess as teams are undercut by alliances, loyalties tendered and tested, and passions enflamed by both affection and animosity.

In this contest where even knives and guns are fair game, sex may prove the most dangerous weapon of all.

Reader Advisory: This book features the recreational use of illicit substances, and non-explicit references to childhood abuse and trauma. It also features an unlikely mix of romance, lust and hate-sex, plus a ton of way crazier crap that the author delights in not preparing you for.

Review:

It's a battle of wits, a battle of the strongest person, and so much more....

Fair warning- this book may not be for everyone. It's unlike any book I've read recently. There's no holding back, no boundaries. It's full of surprises and shockers. It's got plenty of action and suspense. You just never know what's going to happen.

I like a story that features a reality show/study type setting. These kinds of stories really know how to hook me in. I just never know what curve ball surprise the author will throw out, and this book was no different. It's intriguing, different.

Cara McKenna presents a wild ride within the pages of this book. If you're dating enough, take on the challenge of Skin Game. Prepare yourself for the absolute unexpected.

I will be looking for other titles by this author.
