Review: Perfectly Perfect... Ugh

So... I have some mixed emotions about this book. I liked the first 20 percent, and I liked the last 20 percent. However, the middle was kind of a mess.First, I didn't like the insta-love. Once Flynn and Tessa actually meet, everything is so perfect it is nauseating. They are perfectly compatible in every way, and everything that has ever been unpleasant in a relationship before is exactly the opposite when they get together and, thus, perfect. This is pointed out way too often. And I get that this was a totally different feeling for both parties, but it became so cliched in the descriptions. Flynn's speech at the end and his description of their connection almost saves it for me, but that just couldn't mask how annoyed I was with all that perfection in the beginning.Then, all of these Hart people get introduced in a weird turn of events where Flynn, who has found his soulmate in Tessa from the moment he meets her, doesn't speak to her for 6 days. Really? After all of convoluted Hart Family business and allusions to their upbringing and the horror they lived through which leads to the Flynn connections, I was thoroughly confused. It isn't until the end of this book that I find out the Harts are a part of another series this author wrote. So, this plug to her other work might have served to get the reader interested in her other series, but it just annoyed me.Lastly, Flynn was a little too much of a crier for me. I like my males a little more Alpha, but he was hot in the bedroom. Which brings me to a little aside... The sex scenes were steamy and not just the same thing over and over, but they almost all referred to a lot of sweat and used the words "gushed" or "gushing" multiple times... Yuck.There were some typos, but they weren't glaring. Overall, this story was just ok. I don't think I will read anymore from this author.
