Nora從沒把自己當成故事主角，身為精明強勢的出版經紀人和疼愛小妹的大姊，哪種身分都似與書中夢幻甜美的女主角相去甚遠。一場拗不過妹妹的旅行，一個新仇疊加舊恨的暴躁編輯，算不上美好邂逅，但是否有新的篇章悄然寫下…？A by-the-book literary agent must decide if happily ever after is worth changing her whole life for in this insightful, delightful new novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Beach Read and People We Meet on Vacation. Nora Stephens life is books―she’s read them all―and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby. Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away―with visions of a small town transformation for Nora who she’s convinced needs to become the heroine in her own story. But instead of picnics in meadows, or run-ins with a handsome country doctor or bulging-forearmed bartender, Nora keeps bumping into Charlie Lastra, a bookish brooding editor from back in the city. It would be a meet-cute if not for the fact that they’ve met many times and it’s never been cute. If Nora knows she’s not an ideal heroine, Charlie knows he’s nobody’s hero, but as they are thrown together again and again―in a series of coincidences no editor worth their salt would allow―what they discover might just unravel the carefully crafted stories they’ve written about themselves.
