Mary Kildare knows
how to read people. It’s both why she makes a great therapist and why
she refuses to trust the average bachelor. Staying fiercely independent
has been her primary relationship strategy—until wealthy playboy pilot
(and commitmentphobe) Glen Fairchild reappears in her life. After a
yearlong teasing tug-of-war, Mary and Glen test the waters of
attraction, only to find that their physical chemistry runs deeper than
flirtation.
At first, a bicoastal romance suits them
both—especially since Glen can swoop in and whisk Mary away on one of
his company’s planes. But no matter how close they get, they’re still
three thousand miles apart. And when Mary’s life is threatened, Glen
realizes the one luxury he doesn’t have is time. Can he close the
distance between them before it’s too late?

What a delightful read this was. Not Quite Perfect was
absolutely a perfect story for me. From the funny interesting characters to the
suspenseful underlying plot Author Catherine Bybee gave me everything that I
was looking for in a great book. I always get a tad nervous when I pick up a
book from a new Author but in this case I can honestly say that I have no
regrets at all what so ever grabbing this one.
Mary was a strong independent woman (my favorite kind of
heroine). She was fantastic! She was witty, sassy and a quick thinker and with
Glen she definitely needed to be all of those things. Glen was sarcastic, cocky
and ended up being a very caring gentlemen. These two fit together so well but
it took them some time to realize it. Their rocky road to a relationship was
both entertaining and heartwarming to follow.
This story is full of little things to keep you interested
without going overboard. I thoroughly enjoyed it and read it in one sitting
because I didn’t want to put it down. If you are looking for a book that will
leave you feeling giddy, happy and a little lovey dovey, this is the book for
you!
