There are few things in life more satisfying than reading a book and then seeing the words brought to life in a movie in a way you could only imagine. This has been proven again and again through record-breaking numbers for the Harry Potter and Twilight series. Get ready to crack open some books because Her Campus Mizzou has the info on the page-turners that promise big stars and even bigger box office numbers.

One for the Money by Janet Evanovich
Release Date: Jan. 27, 2012
Stars: Katherine Heigl, Jason O’Mara, Daniel Sunjata
Genre: A don’t-want-to-think-too-hard, just-give-me-a-hunky-man, steamy romance with a dash of mystery
Series: The series contains 22 books, including Two for the Dough and Three to Get Deadly
Plot: Recently laid off from her job as a lingerie buyer, Stephanie Plum lands a job as a bounty-hunter by desperately blackmailing her cousin Vinnie. Stephanie struggles through the transition from Macy’s employee to gun-toting badass. Things only get worse when she has to return her high-school love to jail for skipping out on bail. Full of mystery, action and lust, this book is sure to translate seamlessly to the big screen.
