Product Details


Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Bestselling author McNaught ( Something Wonderful ) dishes up a satisfying romantic adventure. A real gun substituted for a prop on the set of director Zack Benedict's latest movie results in his adulterous wife's murder, for which he's convicted. Escape from prison (and the requisite sadistic warden) throws Zack into the life of Julie Mathison, whose Blazer he highjacks to a remote Colorado hideout. Once the outcome of an escape attempt convinces Julie that Zack is no murderer, their affair is a foregone conclusion. It tears down walls for them both, but he sends her away and flees the country. Her plans to elude a personally interested FBI agent and reunite with Zack end in Zack's capture; then, a related murder and Zack's grandmother's accusation that he played a part in his brother's death make Julie doubt her lover. Once the true killer is discovered, she bitterly regrets having betrayed Zack, but will the man who never gives anyone a second chance make an exception for love? Despite an abundance of cliches, this expert genre foray works, thanks to involving characterizations and convincingly drawn action. Major ad/promo; BOMC main se lec tion.

Product Description

A rootless foster child, Julie Mathison had blossomed under the love showered upon her by her adoptive family. Now a lovely and vivacious young woman, she was a respected teacher in her small Texas town, and she passionately lived her ideals. Julie was determined to give back all the kindness she'd received; nothing and no one would ever shatter the perfect life she had fashioned.

Zachary Benedict was an actor/director whose Academy Award-winning career had been shattered when he was wrongly convicted of murdering his wife. After the tall, ruggedly handsome Zack escaped from a Texas prison, he abducted Julie and forced her to drive him to his Colorado mountain hideout. She was outraged, cautious, and unable to ignore the instincts that whispered of his innocence. He was cynical, wary, and increasingly attracted to her. Passion was about to capture them both in its fierce embrace...but the journey to trust, true commitment, and proving Zack's innocence was just beginning.... --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars The title speaks for itself, Aug 4 2005
By bobby "life long reader" (Brampton Ontario) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Perfect (Mass Market Paperback)
Perfect, the title is self-explanatory, the novel is Perfect. I fell in love with the characters and the story just after reading the first few chapters. Being an avid fan of Judith McNaught books I was not in the least disappointed when I read Perfect. The characters were absolutely phenomenal and well written. Their story was very believable and the flair of murder mystery in the novel just made the novel all the more interesting. I finished this book in record time. There was no life beyond the book. Ms. McNaught enthralled me so quickly within the life of the characters I could not wait to finish it, and when it was done, I was so sad it ended. This book is a continuation from the novel Paradise, Matt and Meredith make an appearance in this novel as well.

The novel is about two people Zack Benedict and Julie Mathison. Zack and Julie are from two totally separate worlds. Zack was born in a very wealthy family and Julie was born in a orphanage. She was a troubled child but with all the makings of Robin Hood, the female version. She was adopted and raised by a minister and his wife with their two sons.

The story is extremely beautiful. Before Julie, Zack was married and his wife was shot on the set of his new movie (He becomes a famous Hollywood director/producer/actor). Zack, having martial problems with his late wife, was accused of her murder. He spent 5 years in jail even though he was innocent. After spending 5 years wrongly accused in jail, Zack plans his escape. During his escape everything goes horribly wrong and he charms Julie into giving him a lift. In the process of getting away from the prison he kidnaps her using her as a means to an end. Thus starts the beautiful love story between a highly unlikely pair.

This story is so touching. The way the two protagonists feel for each other is amazing. You can literally feel the love and the undying devotion to each other. Their love survives through all the obstacles that come in the twos way. The whole novel is extremely well put together. The story flows and the characters are believable. I recommend this novel to just about anybody. If you are a avid romance reader this will suit your taste is reading and if you aren't, this book has enough suspense to keep any other genre reader interested all the way through. GOOD JOB MS. MCNAUGHT YOU'VE PRODUCED ANOTHER TIMELESS LOVE STORY!!

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is perfect, Aug 3 2005
By Natalie (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Perfect (Mass Market Paperback)
This is one of the best books that I have ever read. One thing I would like readers to know is what she is trying to do with this book is open people's eye's about how meny women and men can't read. She is also asking us her readers to try and help those who can't help themselfs. Judith gives us such a wonderful story with at lot of meaning behind it. I have a lot of books over the years but this book is by far one of the best and that includes all the harry potter's which I love.
