Editorial Review:
A convicted man out to prove his innocence...
An innocent woman held captive by desire...
Julie Mathison overcame her rough Chicago childhood to become a pillar in a rural Texas community. A third-grade teacher, she is a lovely, vivacious young woman determined to give back all of the love and kindness she has received.
Zachary Benedict, an Academy Award-winning actor/director, was at the pinnacle of his career when he was convicted of murdering his wife. The tall, ruggedly handsome convict endures his prison time, waiting for the day when he can escape and find the real killer.
When that day comes and his carefully planned break-out goes awry, Zack abducts an unsuspecting Julie and forces her to drive him to his Colorado hideout. There, as she comes to believe in Zack's innocence, Julie's fear slowly gives way to trust and desire, kindling a smoldering, sensual passion between them. But before their new found love can take hold, Zack and Julie must pass a bitter test that will force them to endure the pain of betrayal and separation that could drive them apart forever.
Perfect Reviews:
Not my cup of tea 
2008-09-07 - I don't want to spend $20 on a brand new book when it might be total garbage. So when I finally purchased this book years later it seemed extremely dated. I don't want to hear about actors from the past who are no longer popular and I don't want to hear about bad fashion that I'd rather forget about. I cringed a lot throughout this book. This is the exact reason that I read historical fiction.
Even if I could get past all of the cheesiness of this book it still would not be my cup of tea. The hero was the biggest jerk I've seen in a romance in a long, long time. Women do make seriously bad choices sometimes but I'd rather not read about it in my romances. Not recommended for any reason.
Pleasently Perfect 
2008-08-07 - Do yourself a favor and pick up this book... Absolute page turner... Not heavy stuff here so perfect for a beach read... So curl up, listen to the waves and enjoy... I liked this one so much that I am off to search for some more by this author...
This is going to be my favourite McNaught 
2008-06-29 - I have some thoughts I'd like to share with other readers of Perfect.
First, there were times I didn't like Zachary at all. When I compare him to my other two favourites Judith's heroes - Clayton and Ian, whom I love from begining to end, I find something in Zack that bothers me. I don't know what it is, maybe his first name :-)
Then, again something different comparing to Whitney and Almost heaven: I can't wait to see the hero and heroine together, and in Perfect they meet at page number 111, but, strange to me, I wasn't impatient. I enjoyed the way Zack was plannig to escape from prison and his dramatic way to achieve it and when Zack and Julie said good bye in Colorado, I again wasn't nervous, I was curious not only about their love-story, but as well about the detective plot.
Next, I caught myself smiling when reading about Zack and Julie's play in snow. It was very sweet.
And finally,( I don't know if anybody had noticed it too) I got the feeling that Zack was Ian Thornton's great-great grandson. Why? Look at his surname - Stanhope - Ian was the future Duke of Stanhope. Zack has Ian's amber eyes, Zack's sister name is Elizabeth - just like Ian's wife, and brother of Zack is called Alex - just like Ian's wife's best friend :-)
I recommend.
the only book i will ever give 5 stars 
2008-06-14 - I absolutely love this book it is the best book i have ever read . i have read over 100 books and no other books {besides any of judith mcnaughts books} can compare to perfect it was just as the title says its perfect
It was indeed Perfect 
2008-02-10 - So good. Can't wait to re-read. Judith makes the characters so likable. I wish she would write a hundred more books just like it.
