Review: Not Quite Perfect...
Rating: 3 out of 5

I was given this book to read and warned that it was sexually explicit and graphic.  While it contained sex, it was not what I expected; in fact it was actually pretty tame.  I do think that the author has a good story line to work with, I am curious enough to see where the story goes from here to read the next installment.  I think it does have the potential to be a good story dealing with the struggles and temptations faced by a young woman conflicted between her beliefs and her awakening desires.Jessie, the main character, is supposed to be an inexperienced, virginal 18 year old.  However I had a difficult time equating the words I was reading to the thought processes and vocabulary of an 18 year old girl.  She came across to me as too knowledgeable and mature for a sexually inexperienced girl.  Granted, in this day and age of the internet, young girls can learn a great deal without experiencing it firsthand.  But she came across to me as more experienced and much older than the story tried to portray her.I agree with another reviewer here that the author needs to research her material more thoroughly if she really wants us to see this story as plausible.I do hope that the author continues to build on this story foundation, researches her material and brings us more about the struggles Jessie faces as she tries to find her place in the world.
