Perfect Summer takes place in the future in the UK where fifteen year old Morgan envies her best friend Summer because Summer has the perfect life: rich parents, cute boys, and she is beautiful. Morgan, on the other hand, is not beautiful. Boys don’t even give her a second glance, and her family depends on her parents' jobs just to keep going. In addition, Morgan has a little brother named Josh who has Down Syndrome, something that is considered as an abomination in this society where perfection is obsessed over.
