Perfectly Adequate is Pure Perfection
“Another brilliantly written winner. Do yourself a favor and pick this one up, you will not regret it.” —Kate Stewart, USA Today bestselling author
Perfectly Adequate, an all-new must-read romantic comedy from Jewel E. Ann, is available now!
Dr. Elijah Hawkins needs … something.
After his wife jumps headfirst into a midlife crisis, he’s left with his young son, Roman, and a lot of unanswered questions.
That something turns out to be a someone—Dorothy Mayhem, nursing student, patient transporter, reckless driver, and emu owner.
Dorothy studies humans, the neurotypical kind, through books and television. Then she emulates their behavioral patterns to fit in with her peers.
But nothing can prepare her for Dr. Elijah Hawkins.
Single dad.
Brilliant pediatric oncologist.
And the sexiest doctor at the hospital.
When his failed attempts at asking her out turn into a string of playdates with his son, Dorothy finds herself unexpectedly enamored with the boy and his father.
And that’s a problem, a huge one, because Elijah’s ex-wife is a famous plastic surgeon—and Dorothy’s idol.
Perfectly Adequate is a beautiful, hilarious, and heart-felt journey along the “human” spectrum.
My Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Dorthy: “I smile, my go-to when things get really awkward— which happens way too often.”
Oh my heart! It’s completely and forever head over heels in love with this heroine! She owns me heart and soul. The adorably precious, one-of-a-kind Dorothy had me laughing like a loon throughout, with a big, goofy grin on my face and unicorn sparkles filling my heart. She's delightfully unexpected and everlastingly enchanting. Dorthy will keep you off kilter, because no one's brain works like hers, so expect the unexpected – a bit of mental whiplash with a deadpan delivery.
In addition to my undying adoration of Dorothy, I have a new girl crush on an author who earns herself a spot at the top of my Must Read list (and this book may have just captured the spot for my number one read of 2019). I can’t even begin to imagine the kind of mind that can create these amazingly unique characters and fill the pages with so much laughter, love and heart, but it’s brilliant! Pure genius with a side of dazzling wit! Brava, Jewel. Brava.
Dorothy Mayhem is a nursing student and works the weekends as a patient transporter at the same hospital where the gorgeous pediatric oncologist, Dr. Eli Hawkins, works. Dorthy is on the spectrum (the human spectrum, she likes to say) but as I see her, she's highly focused, blatantly honest, and lacks even a hint of a verbal filter. See? Completely charming and endearing, and more than a little entertaining.
As for Eli, I really liked him, having a ton of sympathy for his past hurts and baggage, until he turned into a fickle, lily-livered coward. Apparently he needed to learn that doing the right thing for the wrong reasons isn’t the right thing to do. And when he finally sorted himself, Dorthy, being Dorthy, didn’t make it easy on him. (That’s my girl!)
Do yourself a favor and read this one ASAP. You'll laugh till it hurts, fall irrevocably, head over heels in love, and come away with a new appreciation for a very special segment of humans who fill the world with a million unexpected blessings every day. Those who are a light in the darkness, a breath of fresh air, and if you’re very lucky, your life might be touched by the perfectly unique and priceless love they have to give.

About Jewel
Jewel is a free-spirited romance junkie with a quirky sense of humor.
With 10 years of flossing lectures under her belt, she took early retirement from her dental hygiene career to stay home with her three awesome boys and manage the family business.
After her best friend of nearly 30 years suggested a few books from the Contemporary Romance genre, Jewel was hooked. Devouring two and three books a week but still craving more, she decided to practice sustainable reading, AKA writing.
When she’s not donning her cape and saving the planet one tree at a time, she enjoys yoga with friends, good food with family, rock climbing with her kids, watching How I Met Your Mother reruns, and of course…heart-wrenching, tear-jerking, panty-scorching novels.
