A Perfect Mess would not have been a book I would have picked up naturally...but I can not say how happy I am that I got a chance to read!!  It gets 10 stars out of 5 in my book!! The setting takes place in Louisiana, which I happen to know all about.  I could feel the and relate to the descriptions of the trees, the moon, the flower lined drives. The scents...all of it I was right there!  But to get to the extra juicy stuff...Aubree, who I fell in love with her spirit to forge ahead and her brains. She is so smart! I also could relate to her desire to run away from the past and pretend it did not happen. To try to be an overachiever to right the wrongs from years ago.  Then when a freak "accident" happens to her aunt, she must return to that small town where all of her little girl dreams had been shattered, the nightmares returned again.Under no circumstances did she think that she would run into Booker again either. The towns bad apple. The towns terror. The one that everyone said he could never be or have anything! The relationship between Booker and Aubree is complex to say the least. He has always been her secret love. He has always defended her to the rotten Lancaster Twins. But now Booker is grown up...Aubree just knows there past in no longer in the past.  This book has several deep Bayou secrets that come out of nowhere and surprise the reader. The sexual tension and past love affairs come flying to the surface so quickly that you will be holding your breath.  The demons that chase all of us as people, will have you thinking about some of your personal decisions. But over all, I fell in love from page one of this book!! The characters are deep, evolved and ever surprising! You are amazing Zoe Dawson!!  Big Hugs for an awesome series!
