FROM THE BELOVED SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU PUT YOURSELF FIRST?

Dol has spent her life holding everything — and everyone — together. But she's done being perfect.

Now it's time to be herself.

Dol Westward has always been the dependable one — the steady hand, the peacekeeper, the fixer. Especially when it comes to her unpredictable mother, Marigold. But after years of putting everyone else first, she’s starting to wonder what’s left for her.

When life begins to fray around the edges, Dol realises she’s been chasing an idea of perfection that was never really hers. Old habits, old expectations — they’re hard to break. But maybe imperfection is the only place she can finally feel free...

Funny, moving and full of hope, Picture Imperfect is a story about family, love and discovering that life doesn't have to be perfect to be wonderful — from the beloved author who always writes real life, honestly told.
