The Rom-Commers Story Box

She's Rewriting His Love Story. But Can She Rewrite Her Own?

Fall head over heels for Katherine Center's latest #1 New York Times bestseller—a witty, heartfelt celebration of rom-coms, screenwriting, and believing that love stories matter. Readers are calling this "the queen of comfort reads" at her absolute best.

Emma Wheeler desperately longs to be a screenwriter. She's spent her life studying 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. When she gets the chance to rewrite 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 Charlie Yates doesn't want to write with anyone—much less "a failed, nobody screenwriter." Worse, the romantic comedy he's written is terrible. And he doesn't even believe in love. But Emma's not going down without a fight. She will stand up for herself, for rom-coms, and for love itself. Even if she has to kiss him senseless to prove her point. But what if that kiss is accidentally amazing? What if real life turns out to be more real than fiction?
