ABOUT THE BOOK

Title:  Picture Imperfect
Series:  Roseville Romances #1
Author:  Alyssa Roat & Hope Bolinger
Publisher:  Mountain Brook Ink
Release Date:  November 5, 2021
Genre:  Christian, Contemporary Romance 

Can a struggling career woman and a procrastinating artist save a beloved nonprofit? 

Aspiring novelist Caroline Penn expected a promotion, not a picture book assignment. But when her employer, the non-profit Helping Hope, runs into financial trouble, this book might be the solution. With the company struggling to stay afloat, she and the illustrator will need to collaborate on a strict deadline—no problem for a workaholic like Caroline, right? 

Andy Jackson, a “starving” artist, pays the bills by taking on graphic design gigs, but his perfectionism gets in the way. If only he could focus on a project for once, perhaps he could achieve his dream to make art for children for a living. 

When the two are thrust together to create a book, Caroline can’t seem to write for children, and Andy can’t meet a deadline to save his life. As time ticks down to release day, the two must face their pasts and insecurities. If they can avoid strangling one another for long enough, they may just bring to the table what the other is missing. 

 If not, the fate of their careers—and a beloved nonprofit—hangs in the balance.

EXCERPT:

Caroline glanced back at her computer. The screen had gone dark from lack of use, as empty as her inspiration. I don’t know about that.

“I told that son of mine.” Miss Evie smiled with self-satisfaction. “It would save money to do it in-house, I told him. You’ve got a good writer sitting right in front of your nose, I said, if you’d ever think to read your own magazines and donor letters. Well, I guess it got through his thick skull.”

“Thank you, Miss Evie. But… I’ve never written for children. I’ve never had a book published. I don’t know what I’m doing. I…”

“Hush, now.” She made a shooing motion as she turned to leave. “When God opens a door, you don’t ask questions. You just walk through it.” She tapped her cane as if that settled the matter.
