‘A big hit of dopamine’ EMILY GIFFIN
*The instant New York Times bestseller!*
****
She’s rewriting his love story. But can she rewrite her own?
Emma has big dreams, though she hasn’t let herself think about them in years. Until her big break comes along: the chance to re-write a screenplay with her hero, Charlie-freaking-Yates! Even better: it’s a rom-com – Emma’s dream come true.
Charlie is a Hollywood legend. He’s also, as it turns out, kind of a jerk. He’s written the worst rom-com Emma’s ever read – and it turns out Charlie doesn’t believe in love at all…
But Emma’s not going down without a fight. To help Charlie write the perfect rom-com, she needs to make him understand true romance. But the more she tries to teach him about love, the more real it all starts to seem . . .

Winsome and charming, Center's latest is that perfect blend of romance and overcoming life challenges that her readers treasure
This rom-com about a rom-com offers a pretty predictable storyline, but the enjoyment comes from the tongue-in-cheek commentary on its own genre. As Center writes, 'If you're surprised by the ending, somebody wasn't doing their job. We all know where it's headed. The fun is how we get there
Center, the prolific author of many romances, clearly understands what it takes to create a winning romantic comedy and puts Charlie and Emma through many of the most delightful rom-com tropes (enemies to lovers, forced proximity). But the book, like all of Center's work, doesn't completely eschew darkness―both Emma and Charlie are dealing with trauma and grief. A winning romance that deftly balances heft and humor
The Rom-Commers by Katherine Center is a delightful, hilarious love story that fans of Emily Henry will be eager to dive into this summer
For a good cry, many laughs and a big hit of dopamine, read The Rom-Commers, a story about an aspiring screenwriter looking for real-life love. I'm a massive Katherine Center stan, and this book is her best yet
If you're into Katherine Center's rich character development and a juicy enemies-to-lovers romance, read this
