Picture Perfect Boyfriend by Becky Dean

4.0

Kenzie is a high schooler, who hopes to make a career out of photography, but her parents want her to have a stable career like her father. Kenzie’s father is an optometrist, who’s father was an optometrist and Kenzie’s sister is studying to become an optometrist. She feels the pressure to be perfect and be like her perfect older sister that Kenzie makes up a boyfriend who’s perfect in the eyes of her parents.

While arriving to Maui for the family vacation, Kenzie’s “boyfriend,” Jacob Miller shows up and surprises Kenzie. He knows every detail she has told her family about her boyfriend. He seems perfect, but who is he?!

Will Kenzie ever find out who Jacob Miller really is? Will her family find out? More importantly, will Kenzie finally come clean about her hopes to become a photographer?

This was a very cute read and parts were pretty funny. I did think this book was pretty predictable, but not in a bad way. It was very enjoyable and I was curious as to who Jacob Miller really was. I could be old school, but I did think that Kenzie was very young to be bringing a boyfriend to her trip; it felt like she should have been in college or older in that aspect, but kids are different from when I was growing up.
