Nora usually writes for sappy tv movies that have holidays and romance in them. But her latest script is based on her life and her failed marriage, and doesn't have a happy ending. Except that it does: the script is being be made into a movie for the Big Screen.
Her story's outcome depended on the peace that she found while writing in a charming outbuilding on her property in upstate New York. The movie director wants to film part of the movie at her place. Nora meets the cast, including Leo, the actor who's playing the role of her ex-husband, and while he's very famous, she's not sure what she thinks about him: he helps himself to her beer and hangs out on her porch where she watches the sunrise every day.
After the movie wraps, he asks if he can stay in her little outbuilding for a week, and offers to pay her well. She really needs the money, so she agrees. What she doesn't expect is how Leo melds into her life with her kids. Can a relationship with a man who's famous and has 3 homes last?
The writing style flows and the conversations feel real. In spite of one misdirection by the author which was never addressed, I definitely enjoyed the novel.
