Nora s life is about to get a rewrite

Nora Hamilton knows the formula for love better than anyone. As a romance channel screenwriter, it s her job. But when her too-good-to work husband leaves her and their two kids, Nora turns her marriage s collapse into cash and writes the best script of her life. No one is more surprised than her when it s picked up for the big screen and set to film on location at her 100-year-old-home. When former Sexiest Man Alive, Leo Vance, is cast as her ne er do well husband Nora s life will never be the same.

The morning after shooting wraps and the crew leaves, Nora finds Leo on her porch with a half-empty bottle of tequila and a proposition. He ll pay a thousand dollars a day to stay for a week. The extra seven grand would give Nora breathing room, but it s the need in his eyes that makes her say yes. Seven days: it s the blink of an eye or an eternity depending on how you look at it. Enough time to fall in love. Enough time to break your heart.

Filled with warmth, wit, and wisdom, Nora Goes Off Script is the best kind of love story the real kind where love is complicated by work, kids, and the emotional baggage that comes with life. For Nora and Leo, this kind of love is bigger than the big screen.

Five starry-eyed stars for Nora Goes Off Script!...I honestly didn t know how it would end. Pins and needles! I loved the small-town setting, Nora s chance to start over after a bad marriage, and Nora s children and best friends. Highly recommend! The Southern Bookseller Review

Brimming with compelling characters .Readers will connect with the warmth and humor of this relationship-fiction gem. Booklist, starred review

With Nora Ephron-level wit and smarts, Annabel Monaghan performs something of a literary hat trick in Nora Goes Off Script. While sending-up the romance industry, she chronicles the very romantic (and oddly believable) love affair between a handsome film star and a divorced suburban mom and she turns tradition on its head. Because in this wise and funny novel, it s the Hollywood hero who needs rescuing and a grounded single mom who saves the day. Nora Goes Off Script is sexy, heart-warming, and intelligent, and I loved it! Karen Dukess, author of The Last Book Party
