Review posted at: [...]Rating: 5 starsPerfect Regret is the sequel to Bad Rep, in the Bad Rep series.  If you've read Find You in the Dark, Cloud Walking or Light in the Shadows, then no introduction is needed as you're fully aware of the way Walters' words seep into your heart 'n' soul and leave you stunned that you're reading a book and not experiencing it first hand.  Every time, every freaking time I read one of Walters' books this happens to me and I'm either A) bawling, B) laughing so hard out loud, C) wanting to punch someone in the face, or D) feeling the calm and comfort that comes with true love.  These my friends are all clues that tell you you're reading a one-of-a-kind novel.  A novel that has touched you soul deep and makes you think about life and what you're supposed to take from it.  Soooo, knowing all that, in PR we are one with Riley Walker and Garrett Bellows.  Garrett is your long-blonde haired rocker that is more grounded and enduring than he puts off.  Riley is what I pictured to be your average girl, but after hearing Garrett's words, she sounds like a total babe.  Riley puts up strong defense mechanisms that keep her closed off from others.  She uses her mouth to make jokes or jabs and loves having the last word.  I absolutely love the banter between Riley and Garrett...it's perfect because he doesn't take her s&%#.  Riley had me cracking up, with not just her dialogue but also what she said in her head.  "...I wanted to suck those pieces of man meat into my mouth and make them my b*%$#."  Then there were the bawling moments: "Have a life that matters.  A life with purpose."  And parts I was swooning: "Handle it with care, please.  Because I want to give it to you.  Completely."  I'm in love with this book and it's characters in its complete entirety.  As mentioned earlier, I was one with the characters and Walters' words stole my breath numerous amounts of times.  Why?, because her books are real and these things happen to us, so we relate and feel what the characters experience with them.  So put your other books aside and pick this one up.  Give it a try!!
