About this ebook

When a fake relationship starts to feel all too real with the wrong person, Gwen McDougall must choose between the perfect charade, and the imperfectly perfect love that lies with the other brother.

Brent Crawford, the swoon-worthy tight end for the New York Sharks, is caught in a career crisis of epic proportions. Accused of assault, he's teetering on the edge of losing his sponsors faster than a linebacker chasing a quarterback. In a Hail Mary move, he turns to Gwen McDougall.

Gwen, a former fashion model turned aspiring photographer, yearns for a break from the predictable. Craving more than staged shots of second-tier celebrities, she seizes an opportunity to transform her craft. All she has to do is fake-date Brent to help restore his tarnished image. Simple, right? After all, he's Brent Crawford, the epitome of perfection.

Enter Marc Crawford, the other half of the Crawford brothers equation. With an imperfect face marked by snowboarding scars, Marc is a quirky mix of sensitivity and humor.

As Gwen immerses herself in Brent's world, she discovers that the heart she truly desires beats beneath the scarred exterior of Marc. Caught in a love triangle that would make even the nimblest wide receiver dizzy, Gwen must decide between reneging on her deal to fake the picture-perfect illusion of love with Brent, or give up her photography dreams for the imperfectly raw truth that rests in the arms of Marc.

Hold onto your helmets because this rollercoaster romance is about to unveil the imperfections hidden beneath the glossiest of surfaces! Get ready for a wild ride where love, laughter, and unexpected twists make for a playbook worth following.

I absolutely loved this book! The characters were fun and realistic. The story progressed in a believable way -- not always easy with romance! This story had my attention from start to finish. I love how the story addresses how people often look at themselves and judge their own looks or character too harshly. But it also shows the importance of family good friends, and learning to see yourself the way other people do. Complements are heartfelt gifts, whether we believe in them or not. This wasn't just another romance novel; it has real meaning. This is the first Mary Frame book I've read, and I look forward to reading more!

Picture Imperfect put a fun twist to the normal fake relationship trope. I really enjoyed all of the characters and how their stories played out (I can’t wait for Brent’s book!) I think my favorite part was how Gwen was able to see past Marc’s scars and appreciate him for homemaker and all he does for the people around him. Book characters are typically flawless specimens so it was refreshing to have a character with physical flaws. This book can definitely be read as a stand-alone but we do get to see the characters from the previous books in the series. I really enjoyed getting to see them again as I’ve thoroughly enjoyed each book in this series. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for a light refreshing read. The characters are relatable and enjoyable. I look forward to the next installment in this series!

With the perfect twist to the fake relationship storyline, the story takes you into the machinations of the flawed mind...creating a snowball affect of adversity to the innocent. The originality with which the concept transpires draws your in, exposing the frailty of the mind and how we see ourselves. The characters' vulnerabilities and flaws, some internal some external, were created with the perfect blend of anguish and strength, written with such originality that the story is unique and fresh. This ARC book was complimentary, provided by the author. I am voluntarily providing my honest review.
