Kate Walker used to believe that Happily Ever After would happen for her. But a relationship that has left her brokenhearted has also made her steel hearted against romance in general. Not good when you write romance TV screen plays for a living. Wanting to write something that means something meaningful, Kate feels lost in her career, unsure of what to do. But when disaster strikes her home town of Maple Valley, Kate hurries to help.
Injured in a football game that leaves him on the bench for good, former NFL quarterback Colton Greene is hiding out at his buddy’s house to avoid the onslaught of media. Wallowing in self pity, Colton’s friend urges him to do something meaningful. His agent is bugging him about writing a book, but where is Colton going to find an author? When his friend’s hometown is ravaged by a tornado, Colton heads along to help.
When Kate and Colton meet, sparks fly. But soon they realize they can help each other; Colton needs an author and Kate needs a job. So they join forces on Colton’s biography. Things seem to be going swimmingly. But life has a way of making itself challenging, even when things seem so right From The Start.

This book had me rolling with laughter...From The Start. Okay, not really, but I was laughing way more than I normally do with books. Miss. Tagg is so humorous in the way she writes! From the way Kate and Colt meet to the “shower fight” to the end, it was just so fun!
While the book was funny, there was a very real angle to it as well. Colton and Kate struggle with their pasts. Kate’s agent and friend also has a little boy with Leukemia. There is also a young, pregnant teen who Kate helps Miss. Tagg addresses these real life issues with grace and talent. I was crying at one point.
I give this book five stars, no doubt. I would say it is for older teens (+14) due to the issues addressed and some other parts.
I was given this book for my honest review, from the Book Club Network.
