Sheâs rewriting his love story. But can she rewrite her own?
Emma Wheeler desperately longs to be a screenwriter. Sheâs spent her life studying, obsessing over, and writing romantic comediesâgood ones! That win contests! But sheâs 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 YatesâThe Charlie Yates! Her personal writing god!âitâs a break too big to pass up.
Emmaâs 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? Donât meet your heroes? Charlie Yates doesnât want to write with anyoneâmuch less âa failed, nobody screenwriter.â Worse, the romantic comedy heâs written is so terrible it might actually bring on the apocalypse. Plus! He doesnât even care about the scriptâitâs just a means to get a different one green-lit. Oh, and he thinks love is an emotional Ponzi scheme.
But Emmaâs 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 matterâeven 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 theyâre writing breaks all Emmaâs rulesâand comes true?
