Savannah Cade is a low-level editor at Pennington Publishing, a prestigious publisher producing only the highest of highbrow titles, but she has a secret: she’s writing a romance novel. After leaving her manuscript behind one afternoon in her secret room off the ARC room, she returns to the nook only to discover someone has written notes in the margins. Savannah’s first response to the criticism is defensive, but events transpire that force her to admit that she needs the help of this shadowy editor after all. As the notes take a turn for the romantic, and as Savannah’s madcap life gets more complicated than ever, she uses the process of elimination to identify her mysterious editor—only to discover that what she truly wants and what she should want just might not be the same.
This was an entertaining rom-com--my favorite story by the author so far. It's perfectly predictable, but it didn't detract from the fun. I did disagree with editor's recommendation of putting Savannah's story (and, for that matter, this actual book) in present tense; it always takes me a few chapters to get used to it, but at least the story was fun enough that I pushed through. It's cute, clean, and humorous. Nothing heavy about it, and the Nashville setting was fun and different, especially without a music focus (not that country music was completely neglected).
