Review: "Almost Perfect" Not Quite
Rating: 3 out of 5

I gave this book three stars because Denise Domning wrote it. Otherwise, I would have given it a lessor rating.Normally, I really enjoy Ms. Domning's work, but this book left me yawning. Something was missing and I think it was a lack of characterization on the part of Lucien, especially. The author tells us that they were in love six years ago, then he dumps her because of her family, and yet when she sees him again, she nearly drops her pantalones right there in the ballroom floor. Now, what is that about?It should have been a good story, but it wasn't. He was cold-blooded and she was the opposite. He acted a fool through most of the story, and she was the long suffering widow. I think that if Ms.Domning went into the book and did some recharacterization on both Lucien and Cassie, it might be a fairly good book. Hopefully, I will get a note from Amazon saying that she has made these changes.
