Katherine Center's newest release THE ROM-COMMERS is a beautifully crafted story of sacrifices and personal growth with well-written characters that make you want to laugh out loud and cry for their pain. Emma Wheeler's high school boyfriend offers her the chance to work with her favorite screenwriter Charlie Yates to ghost re-write his most recent screenplay. Since Emma put her role as a full-time caretaker to her disabled father first for over ten years, she is hoping this job can kick start her stagnant career. When Emma is introduced to Charlie, she realizes that he has no interest in making the horrible romantic comedy script successful. He only wants to do the bare minimum to fulfill a deal and achieve an alternative goal for a different screenplay he wrote. In classic Grumpy meets Sunshine, Emma and Charlie strike a bargain to achieve their own objectives while living together to re-write including researching the situations in the original screenplay. They become closer as they spend time writing together and living the romantic events in the script. Along the way, they reveal their past relationship and personal traumas that created their emotional scars. Truly a book that makes your heart hurt for the characters and sigh in delight at the ending.
Featuring beautiful spray-painted edges with vibrant designed endpapers.
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?
