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.

Not enough smut for me

I love a good build up to kissing, I also love details and this book lacks all of it. I like the story, the narrator is great, but I’m disappointed with the little amount of detail overall. If you’re used to detailed romance, find another book. If you want something less smutty, this one is probably for you.

Such a fun story

I really liked this story! It was such a unique and fun concept. For a while, I really didn’t know how it was going to resolve. The only reason I didn’t give five stars was because the actual falling in love of Leo and Nora seemed rushed. Loved the ending!

Loved it!

This was a great story of love, family and understanding! Heartwarming, surprising and some humor!

Couldn’t stop reading

I loved this story and see why it’s gotten good reviews! I was not a fan of the sometimes whiny narrator. I found myself reacting out loud on my walks to parts that made me laugh or almost cry.

a sequel is major needed!!

i loved this story and these characters so much. Nora & Leo! what a couple! i major need a sequel!
