Picture Perfect Love ~ Review

Picture Perfect Love
A Year of Weddings: A June Wedding Story
By Melissa McClone

Jenna Harrison's heart was broken when her fiancee Ashton Vance not only left her at the altar, he accused her of lying to him, and left her with financial wedding ruin.  Is it any wonder that she is less than pleased when he shows up on her doorstep two years too late with an apology.

Ashton can't believe his little sister kept her part in his political downfall secret until she needed Jenna's photographic skills for her own wedding.  He's never forgotten Jenna, but is a second chance possible when he public accused her of lying and nearly destroyed her business in the process?

As Jenna and Ashton work through their issues can they truly discover what true love is?  And did they ever really love one another if they could so easily be divided in the first place?

This is a perfect week-end excursion for those hot summer days when you don't want to do anything except maybe avoid the heat.  This story does have a happy conclusion, but it provides a caution "What is your motivation in getting married?"  Is it love? Financial security? Political ambition? Or God's will?  Stop and ask yourself this question before you say yes when the question is popped you may save yourself heart-ache.

I was provided a digital copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.


About the Book:

Meet the people who make it all happen - the planners, the photographers, the musicians who have helped orchestrate the perfect day for countless couples as they find their own happy endings in the second Year of Weddings novella collection. When image becomes everything, it's up to love to refocus the heart.

Photographer Jenna Harrison wants every bride and groom to look picture perfect on their special day, putting her heart into every wedding to give the couple memorable images of their love. But her own heart is still broken, the unworn wedding dress hanging in her closet a reminder that relationships aren't always as perfect as they look through her camera lens. But Jenna has faith that she will find true love. Until then, she must be patient and trust in God's plan and His perfect timing.

Attorney Ashton Vance is the one that got away. When an embarrassing Photoshopped picture of put an end to his political aspirations, he blamed Jenna. So what if the photo led to his being offered a dream job and changing his life for the better? Jenna betrayed his trust, and two years later, Ashton's heart still hasn't recovered.

It was me. His younger sister's three words turn Ashton's world upside down. He must ask Jenna's forgiveness, but can he risk his heart a second time? Even if Jenna can forgive him, dare he hope for a second chance at her love?
