Love, Unscripted by Denise Hunter is a cute, sweet, and clean story that I thoroughly enjoyed, it kept my attention throughout. In order to help with a difficult breakup, Chloe Anderson writes her debut novel, one that includes her perfect man as the lead. The book is a runaway hit that is optioned for a film, but when Chloe finds out Liam Hamilton is cast as the lead she is devastated. Liam is a super hot Hollywood actor, but he also has a bad boy reputation that doesn't fit Chloe's idea of her ideal man, she feels there is no way he'll do the part justice. The story follows him coming to her town to film the movie and them working together to try to bridge their differences for the sake of her movie and his career. Much to her chagrin, Chloe finds that even though she's not impressed by Liam, there are definitely sparks between the two of them that are not easy to deny.

Denise Hunter has been one of my FAVOURITE authors for years and any new release from her immediately jumps to the top of my TBR list. Her books never disappoint, and Love, Unscripted is no different! It is a light, heartwarming read, but engaging enough to want to finish the whole book in one sitting. The characters are well-rounded and believable, with their own struggles and flaws. Chloe Anderson is a small town author, whose bestselling book is being made into a movie starring Hollywood bad boy, Liam Hamilton. I LOVE a good fake dating trope, and the author absolutely nails it here. Highly recommend to anyone who loves a clean, inspirational rom-com.
A huge thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and Denise Hunter for the complimentary ARC in return for my honest review.

Denise Hunter has done it again. The perfect romance with a small town girl who is not looking for love but love comes and finds her. Chloe and Liam are both flawed characters which have been impacted by their parents decisions. Although the fake relationship is a familiar theme, Love, Unscripted is an enjoyable get away and fast read. This entry will delight Denise Hunter's fans and romance readers alike.
I received an ARC ebook from NetGalley and the publisher, Harper's Collins Christian Publishing, in exchange for an honest review.

Denise Hunter has penned another lovely story that is inspired by having a previous book made into a movie. This book has an adorable first meet-cute between the hero and heroine that made me smile. The story is lighthearted and yet dealt with some sad issues Chloe and Liam experienced in their individual lives. I found the book to be very enjoyable and inspiring.
I listened to the book, and the narrator's voice is perfect for the characters. She did a great job.

4.5 stars!
This was my first read by Denise Hunter. I really loved her writing style and sense of humor. Chloe is an author who is having her book turned into a movie. Liam is an actor who will play the leading man. Chloe doesn’t want Liam for her perfect fictional male character she created because of his bad reputation, but she learns after meeting him that everything in the tabloids isn’t true. Including the newest news that her and Liam are dating! This leads to them fake dating to help his reputation and help her movie and social media status. But the more time they spend together the more the lines of real vs fake blur together. I really liked both of these characters. They are both very caring and kind people. They do have a little bit of trust issues but otherwise great. I was a little disappointed that there was no Christian content, except one line of prayer, considering this is labeled as Christian Fiction. However, I still really enjoyed this story!

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from netgalley. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.

I simply adored this novel! The celebrity romance trope is a favorite of mine and this book had many of the things that make this trope one that I have so much fun reading. I loved the way Liam and Chloe connected. Their “meet cute” before they even met in person was priceless and set things up for them to be wonderfully awkward when they actually did meet.
I felt like I connected with these characters right from the beginning of the story. They were wounded by the actions of people who should have loved them forever. It impacted them and did end up causing problems for their relationship.
I loved seeing the way Liam opened up with Chloe. It was great to see them together, actually enjoying themselves and connecting with each other. I rejoiced with them in moments of happiness and my heart hurt when theirs did.
I loved this book from start to finish. It is now my favorite novel by this author and these characters are ones that I can’t stop thinking about.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

I laughed.
I cried.
I smiled big.
I ugly sobbed.
And I very much wished these people were real.

Denise Hunter delivers another delightful read with Love, Unscripted. A stand alone novel, Love, Unscripted is set in a small Atlantic beach town and tells the story of a bestselling book author and the man chosen to be the hero in the movie. Author Chloe has a difficult past that has influenced all of her relationships. As she uncovers more about herself throughout the story she also falls more in love with actor Liam, who is playing the "perfect book boyfriend" in her book turned movie. Both characters have depth to them, and we follow their journey of discovering more about themselves so that they can be more open to one another. A perfect beach read, Love, Unscripted, is a clean romance that will keep you up to the last page. Thank you to Netgalley and Thomas Nelson Fiction for a free e-copy of this book. All opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Another great inspirational story by this author.
I always enjoy her writing because I feel as though I can visualize the places the people live based on the descriptions this author writes. I always feel the characters are well developed and the relationships have normal lives that I can connect with as I read. I also ennui the ending of her stories because they are uplifting and encouraging and in the works we live in today we need this encouragement.
Thanks for the advanced copy.

Perfect Summer Romance.

I received a complimentary copy from Harper Collins Christian and Thomas Nelson and all opinions expressed are mine.
I love Denise Hunter and in some words we are friends. The book follows Chloe who writes this delactable book that gets commissioned into a movie with one of Hollywood's biggest stars-Liam. Initially, she can't stand him because he is known as a player and reliable. To make her movie not flop they agree to 'work together'. It made me mad somewhat but it was a beautiful story. I loved it! The sibling love and protection, the way the author tackled alcoholism, parents separation was well written.

Wonderful story for everyone to enjoy. I received an ARC of this book courtesy of NetGalley and the publisher. All opinions expressed in this review are my own and given freely. Happy reading!

I just adored Chloe, Liam and Buttercup!
Fun, sweet, romantic story by Denise Hunter. Love her stories! Chloe is an author who's book was picked up to become a movie. She's very protective of the leading male character in the story and was disappointed to find out what actor was protraying him in the movie. Until she gets to know him better! The side characters are awesome, too - I loved her brother's storyline, too.
Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for a temporary, digital ARC.

Love, Unscripted by Denise Hunter is an amazing read that keeps you entertained the whole way through the story. I absolutely loved this book and highly recommend it. You’ll be rooting for Chloe through the entire story, she’s so likable and sweet. Liam has a whole other side of himself that will completely surprise you.

This was a clean, swoon-worthy story between an author and the actor portraying her leading man in a movie adaptation. The dynamic between Chole and Liam felt real without being over the top.

One of my favorite authors is @denisehunter and I will read anything she writes! Thank you @tnzfiction for my early copy of her newest novel, LOVE, UNSCRIPTED.
This novel follows Chloe, an author who is experiencing a wave of fame from her recent novel where she penned the perfect boyfriend. This novel has been opted for a film and Liam Hamilton, Hollywood's bad boy has been cast as the hero.
In this forced-proximity, fake dating novel, I could NOT put it down. I loved how Liam worked to win Chloe over, I loved how Chloe fought for what she wanted to see in the character, and I just loved the quiet, quaint North Carolina town, so far from Hollywood where Liam could be truly himself.
If you love quick, easy beach reads, you will love Chloe and Liam’s story!

The newest Denise Hunter book did not disappoint! It’s everything we all love about her books - relatable, likable, and well-developed characters; heartwarming storyline; an ending that just makes you feel good. The end of her books are predictable, yes, but the path to get there isn’t, and that’s what makes her stories so good. I am also thankful for women’s fiction that isn’t full of explicit scenes and foul language! Definitely recommend this one if you need a feel-good read.

Such a sweet and feel good love story. This book pulls you in from the start and doesn't let go. The storyline was really fun and entertaining. The chemistry was great between LIam and Chloe and there were plenty of charming and heartfelt moments. Beautifully written, inspirational and uplighting.. I enjoyed everything about this book. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book via NetGalley.

Well, Chloe can't seem to find the perfect boyfriend, so she wrote a novel about one. It was a big seller! Now, it's being made into a movie in her hometown! Imagine when the male lead was given to an actor she considers a big jerk. Absolutely opposite from the perfect man in her story. Liam is a womanizer. Not knowing the phone was on speaker and he was sitting next to the producer when she calls Chloe to tell her who got the lead male role, Chloe let it all out about how she felt about him playing the part. Oh, imagine her embarrassment!
She soon learns, the hard way, that everything written about you in the tabloids and social media is not true. In fact, it can be far far from the truth. But, many believe what they read about a person. Chloe soon realized that Liam was nothing like what she'd read and expected. He really needed his public image to change. Chloe needed a social 'following' to help sales.
So, a plan is hatched for them to pretend to be a couple. Guess what happened? I'm not going to spoil it for you. Very sweet story with a happy ending.
I was given an advanced ecopy by the publisher, Thomas Nelson through Netgalley. I was under no obligation to write a positive review.

I received a complimentary copy and this review is purely my own opinion.
Love, Unscripted was a great book, it was fun, laughable and was a very enjoyable storyline.
It delt with forgiving your dad and working through struggles in a relationship.
I enjoyed it immensely!
