The Rom-Commers

I just finished The Rom-commers by Katherine Center and here are my thoughts.

Emma Wheeler is a nobody in the screenwriting world after missing her shot all those years ago because of her dads accident. Then out of nowhere she gets the opportunity of a lifetime. Her idol, her moby dick, Charlie Yates has to produce a screenplay and she is being brought on board to rewrite his script.

With her sister taking over her dads care and her ticket to LA bought, Emma cannot believe her luck. Trouble is, Charlie isn't interested in working with her, in fact he said a big heck no to it. He isn't invested in this script anyway but has to produce something to get to the gig he actually wants. He isn't the kind of man who should be writing a rom-com as he doesn't even believe in love.

Emma isn't swayed and she isn't going to let a love hater ruin rom-coms. Taking Charlie on all kinds of romantic adventures, Emma pulls out all the stops to show Charlie what's missing from his screenplay and maybe what kind of woman is missing from his life.


Grumpy sunshine comedy perfection. This book had me side splitting laughing in its comedic genius. The tears that rolled down my face were hard to wipe away. I needed this book andI didn't know it. Charlie is that moody man who doesn't appreciate what he has. Emma is pure joy and so delightful. I loved her right from the beginning. Even with all the bad that has happened to her, she still sees the perfection in that perfect kiss. Relishes in the beauty of the small things.

I loved how she schooled Charlie in romance. He is the hot shot and he couldn't bring the magic of the script to life without this bubbly beauty! They are such opposites but they balance each other out and I loved watching how their relationship developed and grew.

It was beautifully written and highly entertaining. I loved every single second.

5 stars... all the stars!!
