Book Review - Life After Perfect by Nancy Naigle
ABOUT THE BOOK
Katherine Barclift had it all: the perfect job, the perfect car, and what she thought was the perfect marriage. But when her entire world collapses in one stomach-churning instant, she hits the road and keeps driving until that so-called “perfect life” is just a dot in her rearview mirror.
A chance encounter leads her to make a pit stop in Boot Creek, a drowsy little North Carolina town where she can call herself Katy, soak up the peace and quiet…and drink in the bluer-than-blue eyes of Derek Hansen, a local doctor still wrestling with his own painful past. Both Katy and Derek are wary about giving romance another shot, but they can’t deny the intense attraction between them. And if being in Boot Creek has taught them anything, it’s to take life as it comes and never pass up a chance at true love…no matter how wounded your heart may be.
REVIEW
This book was a very enjoyable read, until the end. The end felt very rushed and left me almost disappointed after a great book and story up until that point. Derek and Katy were great characters that were well-written, and the story moved at a great pace up until it just ended abruptly. I would still recommend this book to read, just be ready for the quick ending. I also really feel in love with Boot Creek and hope to read more books that take place there in the future.
