Meeting Her Match by Jen Turano had me smiling, smirking, laughing, and eagerly flipping pages. Camilla Pierpont, a matchmaker who’s sworn off love, crosses paths with the blunt and fascinating Owen Chesterfield after a near-abduction that turns her life upside down. What follows is an adventure brimming with humor, banter, and unexpected twists that kept my heart engaged from start to finish.
Camilla and Owen's interactions are a real highlight—sharp, witty, and downright delightful. Their chemistry builds naturally, with each exchange crackling with energy. The contrast between Camilla's polished sophistication and Owen's unfiltered honesty not only keeps things lively but also adds a layer of depth that makes their connection feel all the more rewarding. Throw in a meddling Meemaw, quirky townsfolk, and a pet pig that effortlessly steals the spotlight, and you’ve got a story bursting with charm.
Turano masterfully weaves in themes of healing and forgiveness without losing the lighthearted tone. Both Camilla and Owen are carrying the weight of past hurts and watching them slowly open their hearts to love again is not just touching—it’s uplifting. Their journey feels real, and their growth resonates in a way that left me both laughing and teary-eyed.
If you’re seeking a read that balances humor with genuine emotion, Meeting Her Match is an absolute delight. Jen Turano’s ability to craft a story that’s both fun and meaningful makes this a book I’ll be recommending to everyone I know—and re-reading for years to come.
