The Imperfect Love series arrived in 2018 alongside several other Kim Karr projects from that year, reflecting a productive period in her writing. The two books, The Thing about Love and Come A Little Closer, share a series label and a thematic concern with the ways that love shows up at inconvenient moments, between people who might not have chosen each other if they had been thinking clearly.

The Thing about Love sets up the series tone: warm, emotionally honest, and willing to acknowledge that attraction and timing do not always cooperate. Come A Little Closer continues in the same spirit with a different couple, keeping the same general atmosphere while telling its own story.

For readers working through Kim Karr’s catalog, Imperfect Love fits into the warmer, more emotionally straightforward part of her output from 2018, alongside the Party Ever After series. It does not have the darkness of the Tainted Love Duet or the broad comedy of Sexy Jerk World, sitting instead in a comfortable middle ground that many romance readers find the most reliably satisfying.
