Book Overview

DELUXE EDITION--featuring beautiful sprayed edges!

The New York Times bestselling author Katherine Center's next laugh out loud, feel good rom-com about writing your own story.

She's rewriting his love story. But can she rewrite her own?

Emma Wheeler desperately longs to be a screenwriter. She's spent her life studying, obsessing over, and writing romantic comedies--good ones! That win contests! But she's also been the sole caretaker for her kind-hearted dad, who needs full-time care. Now, when she gets a chance to re-write a script for famous screenwriter Charlie Yates--The Charlie Yates! Her personal writing god!--it's a break too big to pass up.

Emma's younger sister steps in for caretaking duties, and Emma moves to L.A. for six weeks for the writing gig of a lifetime. But what is it they say? Don't meet your heroes? Charlie Yates doesn't want to write with anyone--much less "a failed, nobody screenwriter." Worse, the romantic comedy he's written is so terrible it might actually bring on the apocalypse. Plus! He doesn't even care about the script--it's just a means to get a different one green-lit. Oh, and he thinks love is an emotional Ponzi scheme.

But Emma's not going down without a fight. She will stand up for herself, and for rom-coms, and for love itself. She will convince him that love stories matter--even if she has to kiss him senseless to do it. But . . . what if that kiss is accidentally amazing? What if real life turns out to be so much . . . more real than fiction? What if the love story they're writing breaks all Emma's rules--and comes true?
