The storyline sounds interesting. Although I do not like overly sexual books, I may give this one a go so I can find out how the story ends. Great review!

My greatest accomplishment is that I raised two daughters that love to read.

I rather like intense romance novels, but with this one, I'm struggling to get past the fact that we have a late 20's or early 30's FBI agent getting (heavily and erotically) involved with a substantially 'innocent' 18-year-old. If he were early to mid-twenties, I wouldn't have a problem with it, but when you start talking an entire decade older, it gets iffy for me. We're getting into 'Fifty-Shades' territory here. This is supposed to be YA? Nope, don't think so. I'll pass on this one. It's a bit too creepy (as in pervy), in my opinion. Excellent review, though. Thanks!

I love romance books and this book is quite intriguing. The idea of a perfect man is nice too. However, l didn't like the fact that abuse was normalized in this book.

Overdone sensual hot scenes constantly repeated soon becomes a bore, the plot however looks promising. Thanks for the good review.

i could only get through the epilogue. selyna initially sounds like a 50’s teenager though there’s no indication this is when the novel takes place. she is the speaker throughout the epilogue. i did not find much to like about her. she rationalizes everything and doesn’t seem to have a moral compass. the decisions/situations she falls into at the party are unlikely for someone who seems so self-aware. she will go in whatever direction the wind blows.

A high school school romance novel is not my cup of tea but the book seems well written. Very nice review.

I've always enjoyed reading a well written romance stories. Even though the book is titled as perfect there seems to lot of imperfections based on your review, I've got nothing against flaws, a few here and there makes things more relatable.I think it would have been better if they were some flaws in Kieran too as it would've helped connect the reader to the character more. Also I agree with you about sex scenes being overdone, repeating something too many times makes it boring, it loses it's value. Thank you for your review it was very informative.

I don't think I can ever get tired of sensual scenes when I am in the mood for a romance piece. I can see this to be a good read for me. Nice review!

I am not a fan of romance stories, but this book is surprisingly good. The introduction part leaves the reader with the urge to keep on reading. The flow is good, and it has a bit of mystery in it. Perfect is a book I would love to read.
