PJ's Birthday Giveaway #6
Jean Meltzer
Magical Meet Cute
I haven't met Jean Meltzer in person but she's an author whose books I enjoy reading. Her romcoms are well crafted, with well developed, engaging characters, strong Jewish representation, and, in the case of Magical Meet Cute, some magical realism as well. Hellie reviewed this title for the blog, giving it our highest Top Dish rating (click to read) and saying, "The premise is a hoot and a treat - and I thirstily read this book down like the cool drink of lemonade, sweet and tart and refreshing, that it is." Here's the blurb for Magical Meet Cute:
Magical Meet Cute
by Jean Meltzer
Is he the real deal…or did she truly summon a golem?
Faye Kaplan used to be engaged. She also used to have a successful legal practice. But she much prefers her new life as a potter in Woodstock, New York. The only thing missing is the perfect guy.
Not that she needs one. She’s definitely happy alone.
That is, until she finds her town papered with anti-Semitic flyers after yet another failed singles event at the synagogue. Desperate for comfort, Faye drunkenly turns to the only thing guaranteed to soothe her—pottery. A golem protector is just what her town needs…and adding all the little details to make him her ideal man can’t hurt, right?
When a seriously hot stranger mysteriously turns up the next day, Greg seems too good to be true—if you ignore the fact that Faye hit him with her bike. And that he subsequently lost his memory…
But otherwise, the man checks Every. Single. Box. Causing Faye to wonder if Greg’s sudden and spicy appearance might be anything but a coincidence.

I have read Jean Meltzer's books and love them since they are unique, special and amazing. Humor and sweetness combined. Being Jewish they resonate with me greatly. I would love this book. The golem has to have a sense of humor, be empathetic and understanding but most of all be a mensch.
