"Meet Me in the Margins is a delightfully charming jewel of a book that fans of romantic comedy won't be able to put down!" --Kristy Woodson Harvey, New York Times bestselling author of A Happier Life

Savannah Cade's dreams are coming true. The Claire Donovan, editor-in-chief of the most successful romance publishing company in the country, has requested to see the manuscript Savannah's been secretly writing. The only problem: she's an editor for a different company, and their philosophy is only highbrow works are worth printing and romance should be reserved for the lowest level of Dante's inferno.

But when Savannah drops her manuscript during a staff meeting and nearly exposes herself to the whole company--including William Pennington, the new boss and son of the romance-despising CEO herself--she has no choice but to hide the manuscript in a hidden room.

When she returns, she's dismayed to discover that someone has not only been in her hidden nook but has written notes in the margins--quite critical ones. But when Claire's own reaction turns out to be nearly identical to the scribbled remarks, and, worse, Claire announces that Savannah has six weeks to resubmit before she retires, Savannah finds herself forced to seek the help of the shadowy editor after all.

As their notes back and forth start to fill up the pages, however, Savannah finds him becoming pivotal not just to her work but her life. There's no doubt about it: she's falling for her mystery editor. If she only knew who he was.

With its irresistible bookish setting, slow-burn romance, and included discussion questions, Meet Me in the Margins makes a delightful pick for book clubs and readers who love stories about stories. Melissa Ferguson once again delivers her trademark laugh-out-loud charm and heartfelt romance--all without the spice.

Tropes:

• Workplace romance
• Book about books

So good! So cute!

The story started off a bit slow but it turned out to be the perfect pace for the sweet ending. I’m so wary of romance bestsellers but this one is so good! Just enough sweetness and spark with no language or blush-worthy scenes. Loved the transformations and lessons learned. Great read overall!
