Loving Jake (Almost Perfect Series Book 1) by Lisa Lanay – Review by Karyn Taylor

Loving Jake by Lisa Lanay
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loving Jake is the first book in the Almost Perfect series by Lisa Lanay. It was the first time I had read any of this author’s work so was unsure what to expect. The blurb drew me in as it seemed like just the sort of book I would enjoy and I’m so glad I chose to read it as I loved it and now have a new author to add to my list.
Kimberley has loved Jake since high school where he was her brother’s friend. Now back in town for a while he needs somewhere to stay and Kimberley just happens to have a spare room.
Needless to say there’s a lot of angst as the 2 of them skirt around each other and Jake tries to fight his growing attraction to his friend’s little sister. There’s a lot of humour too as Kimberley tries everything to make Jake notice her as a grown woman and not the little girl who followed him everywhere.
This is a really great story with great characters, not only the 2 main characters. I loved Kimberley’s meddling sister who did everything to push the 2 of them together. Another character, Zane is going to be the focus of the 2nd book in this series and I can’t wait to read it.
