"I am so thrilled to be working with Hallmark to bring my novel Groundswell to the screen," said Biegel. "This project has been a long time in the making and it's a dream come true to see my characters brought to life for viewers. I could not be happier!"
"As an award-winning television personality, chef, cookbook writer and bestselling novelist, it seems that there's nothing Katie Lee Biegel can't do," said Elizabeth Yost, SVP Programming at Crown Media Family Networks . "We are so excited to work with her on yet another accomplishment … bringing her wonderful debut novel, Groundswell, to life on screen … and know that viewers will fall in love with this story."
Groundswell follows an Atlanta chef named Emma who, on the heels of a personal and professional setback, travels to Hawaii where she meets a reclusive surf instructor named Ben whose lessons help her to regain her footing.
Biegel is co-host of Food Network's The Kitchen . She can be seen regularly on the network's Best. Ever. and Beat Bobby Flay, and as a judge for the Halloween Baking Championship series.
