About this listen
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.

Critic reviews
I loved this book with my whole heart. It's smart, fresh and romantic, full of humour and warmth. I didn't want to put it down
Such a charming read
Absolutely irresistible - funny, addictive and deliciously romantic, this is exactly the sort of book we all need right now
Wildly addictive and perfectly escapist, I have recommended this book to everyone!
I love Nora. I love her voice. I love the romance. I love the pacing. I love that she's a mum. I love it all . . . It's got the vibes of Beach Read by Emily Henry, with the escapist glamour of Hollywood. Absolutely nails the comedy, the romance, and the sparkle. My favourite read of this year, and soon to be yours!
I absolutely loved this book. It is the perfect combination of heart, drama and humour. Totally delicious, and perfect for summer
Magical . . . As much a beautiful story of female agency and empowerment, as it is a tantalising love story. The kind of book you want to savour, yet can't help whizzing through. It's a dream read
Nora and Leo are both believable, engaging protagonists who I rooted for from the start
This sparkling rom-com is fresh, funny and will make your heart soar with the romance of it!
I really liked this book, with Annabel Monaghan managing to bring that feature film feeling to the page . . . the perfect book for those looking for a second chance at love and even those who just love to get swept up in a story
So refreshing and different, I was reading late into the night. I defy you not to fall in love with Nora's story
Funny and good-hearted - a romance for romantics, a blending of the real and the deliciously unreal
This perfectly-scripted love story left me feeling the way all the best romances do: filled with hope and the feeling that true love always wins
Such a freaking delight . . . Charming, funny, uplifting and completely captivating, I devoured it in three days
Dreamy
Perfectly captures the apprehension and excitement of infatuation blended with life's complications
Irresistible . . . With pitch-perfect characters full of foibles and flaws, the work taps into genuine feelings as the characters fall in love. This is a winner
A witty and poignant roller coaster that springs a delightful surprise
The perfect escape from reality
Wryly observed escapism - romantic but never mawkish
For fans of Book Lovers by Emily Henry . . . highlights single motherhood and the ways in which children can both complicate new romance and make it even more heartwarming. It's the feel-good book you didn't realize you needed
I urge you to read the brilliantly scripted (pun intended), smart, off-beat romance Nora Goes Off Script by Annabel Monaghan. I adored it
Really recommend as a good holiday read

A gem

An interesting twist towards the end.
The story is set in the USA so the narrator is American.
She has a slightly irritating voice but it didn't spoil the story telling.
