Author: Jean Meltzer

Jean Meltzer writes Jewish romantic fiction informed by her background in television, dramatic writing, religious study, and literary advocacy. Mr. Perfect on Paper follows Dara Rabinowitz, the creator of a Jewish matchmaking app, after a private checklist becomes the basis for a televised search. The setup lets Meltzer explore the gap between inherited expectations and the less orderly reality of attachment, while keeping family and Jewish community central to the comedy. Her novels also include The Matzah Ball, Kissing Kosher, Magical Meet Cute, and The Eight Heartbreaks of Hanukkah. Beyond fiction, she founded Jewish Joy LLC to support events and conversations around Jewish storytelling.
