Perfectly Imperfect Hearts

Perfection broke them. Love might heal them.

Tara and Kate Engelwood did everything right—successful careers, polished lives, and hearts carefully guarded. But when love arrives in unexpected, imperfect forms, everything they worked for begins to unravel.

Attorney Tara never meant to fall for Chad, a quick-witted designer facing cancer with courage, humor, and a bucket list that makes every moment matter. Their slow-burn romance is tender, heartbreaking, and filled with the kind of love that changes how you see time itself.

Across town, driven physician Kate collides with Wesley, a laid-back bartender and old friend who challenges her relentless pace and hidden grief. As walls come down, Kate must decide whether she’s brave enough to choose love over control.

As family expectations rise and life refuses to stay neatly planned, the sisters must choose between perfection—and the imperfect men who see their hearts clearly.

Perfectly Imperfect Hearts is a clean, deeply emotional small-town romance packed with sisterhood, faith, slow-burn love, grief and healing, and tear-jerking moments that keep Kindle Unlimited readers turning pages late into the night.

Perfect for fans of wholesome romance, inspirational women’s fiction, strong heroines, slow burn, uplifting stories, romance with cancer journey, bucket list romance, and unforgettable happily-ever-afters.

🧐What readers say about the book

Hits the heart in a very quiet but powerful way. The small town setting feels warm and familiar, and the focus on sisterhood and faith adds real depth to the story. The romance builds slowly and naturally, shaped by loss and healing rather than instant attraction. What stays with you is the emotion. There are moments that feel tender and hopeful, and others that catch you off guard with how honest they are. It is the kind of story that makes you pause, feel, and keep reading because you want everything to turn out right in the end.
