Give Me Butterflies: A Novel | Jillian Meadows
2 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
A swoony, steamy, STEM romance in which two curators at a science museuma handsome but grumpy astronomer and an anxious but sunshine-y entomologistrealize they are the perfect match. Equal parts nerdy banter and fiery tension, its perfect for fans of Ali Hazelwood and Tessa Bailey. 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 up, she is determined not to let anything distract her from her goals. Especially her grumpy coworker with his permanent scowl, electric blue eyes, and nerdy astronomy ties. . . . Not that shes spent much time noticing any of those things. Finn doesnt mean to glare at everyone, but hes 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 on his plate. Millie literally stumbling into him with her bright smile and sunny optimism, is the last thing he needs. 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.

Sweet and spicy with emotional depth. Thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for an advance reading copy.

This suffered from trying to be too much by throwing in all the tropes instead of focusing on a few & really fleshing them out (there‘s workplace romance, grumpy vs. sunshine, enemies-to-lovers, male MC has kids (nieces), toxic ex, toxic parents…). Most had limited page time & I forgot they were a part of the story after they popped up.

It was a little too sugary sweet for my taste, but if you enjoy those stories, then you‘ll like this one.

⭐️⭐️
