Publisher's Summary

An aspiring screenwriter has a chance encounter with an actor who could be the man of her dreams. Over the next 10 years, she’ll write the story...but will he end up being the star?

February 4, 2003, promises to be a typical day for Olivia Ross - a greeting card writer whose passion project is a screenplay of her own. But after she and a handsome actor have a magical meet-cute in a coffee shop, they make a spontaneous pact: in 10 years, after they’ve found the success they’re just sure they’re going to achieve, they’ll return to the coffeehouse to partner up and make a film together. The only problem? Olivia neglected to get the stranger’s name. But she doesn’t forget his face - or the date.

For the next ten years, every February 4 is marked with coincidences and ironies for Olivia. As men come and go and return to her life, she continues to write, but still wonders about the guy from the coffee shop - the nameless actor she’s almost certain has turned out to be Hamish MacDougal, now a famous A-lister and Hollywood leading man.

But a lot can happen in 10 years, and while waiting for the curtain to rise on her fate, the true story of Olivia’s life is being written - and if she’s not careful, she’ll completely miss the real-life romantic comedy playing out right before her eyes.

Surprisingly Wonderful ❤️

I wasn't expecting to love this story as much as I did but it was beautiful. It kept me on the edge of my seat with all the twists and turns. It was one of those kinds of books that had things in it you needed to hear when going through some hard times in life. When a book can make me laugh and cry like this one did, it's worth every page. Well worth the read. I loved it in everyway.

Thoroughly enjoyed it

Really enjoyed the plot and the twist!

My only complaint is that the narrator should verify the pronunciations of words and people's names.

Adored this sweet rom com

Aaaggghhh this plot had me so invested it basically consumed me until i was able to finish. While i was so frustrated by the MC chronically martyring, i did love the idea of a love so powerful it pulled her and her love interest to each other across the span of 10 years. Oh, how i want them to have those 10 years together, though!

Characters were lovable, just the right amount of corny, super fun and unique way to give you the perfect feel good, happy ending rom-com without
feeling like you’ve seen this one before.
Plus the story/writing style makes it impossible to not be fully immersed and invested in the love story of Liam and Liv.

After reading and loving The Do-Over i immediately bought this one and wasn’t disappointed. Will be reading all of her work!
I read about a book a week (sometimes 2), half of which are rom-coms, and this ranks up there for me.

I highly recommend

Cute and quick

This was a really enjoyable listen! I finished in one day. It's got all of the normal chick lit content with, wait for it, plot twists! Good if your looking for a light easy read.

Good but aggravating

This is the first Bethany Turner book I have listened to and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The main character did make me want to shake some sense into her, but when a book can pull a reaction from you, that’s a good thing.
I am excited to listen to some of her other works!

Starts silly, ends happy

The main character first comes off as a "pick me" girl, but develops well throughout the book to a leading lady we can all be proud of. The perfect summer read to make your heart happy.
