MY THOUGHTS


Picture Perfect by Ella Fox is one hell of a read.

The story is about a Photographer, named Tessa, who is beginning to climb the road to success, and a famous rockstar- Flynn Rand, who is devilishly handsome and smoldering hot. A story of trust, music and unforgettable love.

Honestly, I picked this novel and ordered on Amazon because 1) it's ans Ella Fox book and 2) the title has been overused these days that I want to experience different stories of the same title. I liked the plot of the story, though it features another rock star. Flynn's difference to the other book rockstars? He's already on the peak of his career, rich, hot and bored.

I liked the idea that Flynn is more human than any BFFs that I have. He's not pretentious, or maybe a little. And he's getting tires of the fame and stardom. Plus points to you, Rand! :D

When I turned to read the book, I was damned. Man, t'was written in Flynn's POV. Did I mention that I have a soft spot in books with the hero's pov? And I loved Ella Fox more with that. :)

I won't say much about the story because I never want to spoil the readers- those who haven't read the book. So, I'll just blabber on the technicalities and generalities of the novel.

The first chapter kept me reading. As I said, it's Flynn's voice. The next chapter, in Tessa's.

I had a head start. I thought the story was good. I didn't have the urge to put it down or skip reading. It kept me going.

Sad to say, when I reached 20% of this read, it got annoying. Don't get me wrong. I liked it but really not into it. Tessa and Flynn's relationship was a roller coaster. Okay, I really need to tell you this. Flynn's in his late twenties (correct me if Im wrong). But the way his story is written? Hmmm, it was like reading inside a head of a sixteen-year old lovestruck girl. It was really, I mean, really really irritating. What's worse? Tessa's voice was much more musculine than Flynn's.

I loved The Hart Series by Ella Fox. I loved every book. I have everything she has written. But this one, Picture Perfect is poorly written. The chemistry between Tessa and Flynn was kinda forced to me. I even skipped pages because I couldn't force myself tp get through so much torture.

Their relationship? And the sex? Way too overkill. I didn't like it. It was so disappointing. :( Not that I didn't enjoy it, but their relationship was so mushy I couldn't take it. Fine, Flynn Rand was too much.

The cheesy part? Hmmm, he's related to the Hart family. Overkill, again.


I'm sorry. I'm sorry if this review might appear mean. But this is an honest review. Sooooo...

Though I didn't like it too much, I still finished it- that means something. This is still a read, not an experience though.

With that, I'm giving Picture Perfect by Ella Fox three and a half shining stars! ***- :)))

I recommend it to readers who are interested to steamy romance. Dude, this book is hot! Genuinely!

Tell me what you think! Recommend something to me. :)
