Instead of trying to find your perfect match in a dating app, we bring you the “Author-Reader-Match” where we introduce you to authors you may fall in love with. It’s our great pleasure to present Jillian Meadows!
Writes:
Hello, romance readers! I’m Jillian Meadows, and I write contemporary romance that will make you swoon, smile, and kick your feet squealing! I love writing cozy happily-ever-afters that give readers a front row seat to all the big and small moments that make two people fall in love! My newest release, GIVE ME BUTTERFLIES, is a workplace romance that takes place in a museum, so it’s full of all the nerdy goodness your heart can handle. Our heroine, Millie, is an entomology curator, and she’s fighting against her imposter syndrome and anxiety to apply for her dream job— the head of the entomology department. But after a few less-than-ideal run-ins with Finn, the head of the astronomy department, she discovers he is on her interview panel, and as much as she would like to avoid him, the universe keeps pulling them together.
About:
I’m a mom of four who currently lives in west Texas, where the heat is unavoidable, but the sunsets are beautiful! My hobbies include reading, reading, and more reading— preferably with a scenic view, a warm blanket, and a fun drink. I also enjoy spending time outdoors, playing board games, experimenting in the kitchen, and reorganizing a random spot in my house for fun. When life feels overwhelming, you can find me rewatching Pride and Prejudice while cuddling with my dog.
What I’m looking for in my ideal reader match:
- I’m looking for readers who love:
- sassy, nerdy banter
- characters with good communication skills
- the best-found family vibes
- the single dad trope, but this time it’s single guardian
- adorable kids in their books
- the toe-curling tension of a slow burn and the heat of open-door spice
- flirty texts and emails
- realistic mental health representation
- cute nicknames
- characters who go to therapy
What to expect if we’re compatible:
- strong women who stand up for themselves
- the best book boyfriends, who always fall hard and fast
- love stories that feel like a warm, cozy hug
- to crave a sweet little treat while reading
- characters who feel real, flaws and all
- laughter, tears, and probably blushing
- to fall in love with the side characters too
- that heart-bursting, butterflies-in-your-stomach feeling you’re looking for in a romance!
Oak Sisters #1
A swoony, steamy, STEM romance in which two curators at a science museum—a handsome but grumpy astronomer and an anxious but sunshine-y entomologist—realize they are the perfect match. Equal parts nerdy banter and fiery tension, it’s perfect for fans of Ali Hazelwood and Tessa Bailey. Now with exclusive bonus content!
Millie was never one to take the expected path. She’s an entomologist who loves her job as a natural science curator, inspiring museum visitors every day. It’s her dream to take a larger role in the planning of her department, so when a director position opens, she is determined not to let anything distract her from her goals. Especially Finn, her grumpy coworker with his permanent scowl, electric blue eyes, and nerdy astronomy ties.
. . . Not that she’s spent much time noticing any of those things.
Finn doesn’t mean to glare at everyone, but he’s juggling his role at the museum, navigating the grief of losing his sister, attempting to make his nieces smile, and trying not to ruin dinner for the fifth night in a row. He can’t afford to let anything slip, and certainly doesn’t need anything more to deal with—especially not Millie literally stumbling into him, with her bright smile and sunny optimism.
He bugs her. She’s too starry-eyed for him. They want nothing to do with each other. But with Finn on the interview committee, avoidance is impossible. And Millie soon realizes it’s one thing when a job is on the line. It’s quite another when it’s her heart.
