Review: The Picture Perfect Summer

Book: The Picture Perfect Summer

Author: Jessica Booth

Thank you so much Jessica Booth for an eARC.

I enjoyed this small-town romance so much!

Katie is 27 years old and just trying to figure out her career. She has never had a serious boyfriend but she has been secretly crushing on her brother’s best friend Jacob for years.

Jacob is a journalist for the local paper. We find out that Jacob as well has been crushing on Katie.

Katie takes a freelance photography job at the local paper where Jacob and her brother work. Jacob and Katie are assigned to go to the summer festivals in Louisiana. Each is planned to be featured in the paper as a series.

The banter and flirtation that Jacob and Katie had with one another flowed perfectly. You could feel the chemistry between one another so vividly. They meshed so perfectly together. n

During their festival journey from the Mudbug Madness to the Ruston Lousiana Peach Festival something always went oddly wrong. From a dumpster flying at Jacob to a canceled bed and breakfast reservation. You start wondering if it was all a coincidence. You learn that Jacob and Katie are wondering the same. I was a little shocked by the way it unfolded. I won’t spoil it, you will have to read it for yourself!

Overall, I really enjoyed watching Jacob and Katie’s friendship and relationship blossom. All of the characters are very lovable. I especially loved how supportive her best friend Celia was.

This is the second book in a series but it can be read as a standalone.

The Picture Perfect Summer is released on Tuesday!

Final Score: 5/5
