Are Jillian Walsh books considered clean romance?
Yes. Jillian Walsh books are clean romance, closed-door romance, kisses-only romance, and no-spice romance. They may include heartfelt attraction, romantic tension, and some fairly passionate kissing scenes, but anything beyond that is left to the imagination.

Mercer Hollow Ranch is an upcoming clean cowboy romance series. Like my other books, it will feature heartwarming romance, strong emotional connection, and happily-ever-afters, but with a small-town western setting and a big ranching family with six brothers and one sister.
What kinds of tropes do you write?
I often find myself writing second chance romance, return-to-hometown stories, small-town romance, and characters starting over in a new season of life. I also love mixing in a variety of other tropes, including secret identity, fish out of water, fake dating, forbidden romance, light mystery, and opposites attract. I intend to try many more.

Why do you write clean romance?
I have always loved reading romance, but I often found myself skimming past explicit scenes. Not because there is anything wrong with physical expressions of love, but because I personally prefer the fade-to-black, “okay, we get it” moment—and then I’m ready to move on with the story.
When I discovered clean romance around 2019, I was thrilled to find the kinds of love stories I most enjoyed reading: romantic, heartfelt, emotionally satisfying, and sweet without being explicit. I began reading more of them, and in 2020, I started writing them too.
For me, clean romance is about the heart of the love story—the longing, the connection, the trust, the vulnerability, and the joy of watching two people find their way to each other.
