Cover reveal: Perfectly Messy by Lizzy Charles
It always brings me great pleasure to help reveal new book covers. But because this is a book from the publisher I work for (Swoon Romance) and because it’s one of the authors I really admire (Lizzy Charles) it’s extra exciting to me.
Behold the glory of Perfectly Messy!
Perfectly Messy
Release Date: May 2014
Summary from Goodreads:
Popularity isn’t everything it’s cracked up to be. Justin Marshall
knows this better than most. For the captain of the basketball team, small business
owner, and son of Minnesota’s next governor, life can get pretty overwhelming.
But Justin can handle anything as long as he has Lucy, the girl who fell for
the man he’s trying to be.

But Justin can handle anything as long as he has Lucy, the girl who fell for
the man he’s trying to be.
But for Justin and Lucy, finding time together proves challenging. Stolen
kisses and whispered promises just aren’t enough. That is, until scandalous
photos of the couple are leaked to a press intent on creating a juicy scandal
during Justin’s dad’s gubernatorial campaign. And when Lucy becomes fair play
for the tabloids and gossip pages, Justin does the only thing he can to protect
her: he breaks her heart.

For Lucy, junior year is everything she hoped it would be: new friends, second
chances, and a boyfriend she can’t stop kissing. That is, until the boy she’s
pretty sure she loves chooses the life his family wants for him, over her.

Now it’s up to Lucy to teach him what it really means to have everything.
Because for Justin, being who everyone needs him to be just might cost him the
one person he can’t live without.

When Lizzy Charles isn’t scrambling to raise her two spunky toddlers or caring for premature and sick babies as a neonatal intensive care nurse, she’s in a quiet corner writing or snuggled up with a novel and a few squares of dark chocolate. Black tea keeps her constant and she loves guacamole. She married her high school sweet heart, a heart-melting musician, so it’s no surprise she’s fallen in love with writing contemporary YA romance novels.
