Description
"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
You've Got Mail meets The Proposal--this romance is one for the books.
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.
Meet Me in the Margins is a delightful rom-com that combines the witty banter and tension of You've Got Mail with the clean and heartwarming romance found in Katherine Center's novels. With its fun premise and charming characters, this book is perfect for book clubs and girls' nights. Plus, it includes discussion questions to spark engaging conversations about love, literature, and the power of second chances.

Featured Reviews

MEET ME IN THE MARGINS by MELISSA FERGUSON is a hysterically funny romantic comedy with a great mixture of characters and an interesting message running through it regarding what really makes up a worthwhile life.
The story takes place at Pennington Publishing where the protagonist, Savannah Cade, works as Assistant Aquisitions Editor. She is a master at multitasking, but never does enough to please her hyperactive and bossy younger sister Olivia, who is looked upon by her family as perfection personified, and, to make it worse, is engaged to Savannah’s ex boyfriend!
Pennington Publishing is strict about the books they publish due to Ms Pennington’s aversion to anything she deems unworthy, such as romance. She rules the office with a rod of iron and it seems at first as though her son William, who has left a prestigious publishing house in New York, is cut from the same cloth as his mother.
I love the witty repartee between the characters and the messages between Savannah and her secret editor who visits her hideaway and comments in the margins.
What a really enjoyable read - a true breath of fresh air!
I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from Thomas Nelson. The opinions in this review are competely my own.

This was a very sweet romance!!! I loved the setting in this and I think any bookworm would enjoy reading about Savannah falling for Will, her new boss’s son. I love the trope in this!! It was very fun plus the publishing aspect was fascinating to read. It read almost like a movie! Very sweet

I loved the story and plot line here, I thought TJ eas so cute and and entertaining and the banter was so fun and jsut all around nice and cute

Meet me in the Margins is such a fun book. I always enjoy Melissa Ferguson's books. Her books are always clean, sweet, and swoony. I loved the hidden room in Meet me in the Margins, as well as the mystery editor. Ferguson balanced serious workplace situations with humorous ones, all while developing relationships. With so many gears turning, I felt like a fly on the wall in the office, and to watch it all come together was just so wonderful. I've read Meet me in the Margins several times, and have listed to the audio version (also great!), and love it more each time. I'm so thankful I got to read it through Netgalley.
