This is another freebie that I got on Amazon. It was okay.
Okay, it was a bit more than okay but a bit less than great. It was funny and sweet and not bad for a free book.
Good thing I didn't expect much from this, no disappointments. I kind of expected it to be an okay-read at the least and it turned out to be that.
The story was "yeah, sure" and the romance between the two main characters looked like it was already happening long before this book happened. Yep, with this book alone, their sweet,...more

The thing I love about Kate Perry is her books are simple. Now, normally that would sound like a bad thing but don't get me wrong, I mean that in the best way possible. She does an excellent job of creating a world that's light and easy. There's always good chemistry and you always get your happy ending. I love reading books by Ms. Perry when I just need a little pick me up, and that's what her books do.

I loved Freya's story! I couldn't understand why she would care so much about Greg being a lawyer, especially after she got to know him BEFORE she found out what he did for a living. I would have expected someone with her personality, at least what is described to be her personality even though I didn't really see it shine through, that she would not judge someone so harshly based on a simple career choice. And yeah, she should feel bad that her sister was actually fearful of telling her that sh...more
I will admit I did not like this book at the start. I found Freya to be annoying. But I’m glad I gave the book a chance to hold my attention.
Freya is a strong, independent and very serious woman. At least that’s how she first comes across – stiff. Greg is what kept me reading. He is easy going, open and sexy as hell. And the chemistry between the two is apparent from the very first interaction.
Okay so the book is centered around Freya and her need to get her groove back in the muse department. S...more

I will admit that my opinion of this book is based on a very heavy pet peeve. If the setup to a story plot feels terribly artificial, I won't like it. Not matter how good everything else is. I just can't stand fake scenarios, mostly the ones that include artificial human reactions.
Here it is:
The heroine has lost her creativity and thinks that a steamy affair will get her "creative juices flowing". Okay. That's ridiculous enough already. Now the followup. She decides to find this steamy romance...more

Perfect for You is a book by author Kate Perry. It is part of the Laurel heights series.
Freya Godwin is a web designer looking for a man to inspire her for her job as a web designer. Her upstairs neighbor seems to be the perfect person. It is obvious that he likes her, but she pretends not to care. There is something stopping her. Later on we learn that the reason is a sad event in Freya's life. Both her parents died in a car accident after they lost everything because of their lawyer. Greg, the...more

The story line was a bit blah. Nothing was detailed, like, you don't fully grasp what happened.
Its about this web designer, Freya, who lost her muse. So, she puts up an ad on craigslist to find herself a man (to date? to sleep with? for company?) in order to get her muse back for a big project. Yeah I know what your thinking.. WHO does that? I mean, if that doesn't scream out S-L-E-E-Z-Y, i don't know what does.

Cute freebie about a web designer who's lost her mojo... and she desperately needs it back to finish the designs for a big-time online adult store. It's not your run-of-the-mill porn shop; Freya (yes, named after the Norse love goddess) needs to get her own sexy love goddess back to finish the campaign. She's only got 4 weeks. This client could make-or-break her little San Francisco boutique web design company.

Good read...
OK, so, I rarely rate books under 4 starts because I find myself only sticking to books that already have good reviews and that I know I will love.
When I first started "Perfect for You", I didn't really understand the whole story. I mean, it's the story of a woman named Freya who is responsible of taking care of her 21 year old sister Anna because they're parents died in a car crash. Freya now hates lawyers because her father's lawyer had screwed him over and took all of his money. F...more

Okay, so I gave this book 3 stars because its dead in the middle. I wanted to love this book but I just can't. I can't hate it either. This is my first review so I hope its okay....
This book was alright..
My favorite character in the whole book is Anna, she's funny and I can relate to her more than any other female characters in the book. However, I didn't like how she was so afraid to tell Freya what she had done. To me it just wasn't that big of a deal. Maybe it's from coming from a large fami...more

Freya has raised her sister since the accident that claimed her parents’ lives. Their family was screwed over by her father’s malpractice lawyer and she lost everything. She had to abandon her dreams of college to raise her little sister. Now she’s working her ass off to keep her little sister in school.

I tried to think of several ways to start this review, but I think going for simple and direct-to-the-point is best. But to sum up my thoughts: If I wasn't annoyed, I was bored. Perfect for You could not be any more not perfect for me.
Reasons why I intensely disliked Perfect for You:
1.) Freya has lost her muse, so in a flash of inspiration, she decides to post an ad that she is a lonely woman in need of a man. (Unfortunately, she sucks, so her best friend writes it for her instead).
Her neighbor,...more

S-S-S-S-Steamy!
"PERFECT FOR YOU" ... is the second Kate Perry book I have read this month; except that there is much more sensuality in this one, she has not changed her writing style from the first book I read. If you are wanting read about spicy sexual activity, in locations you may have never dreamed of, with very little drama - then this is the book for you.

Ooops, I did it again.
Look, I am sick for three days now, and I am a terrible patient. (If they ever gonna make *that* Hollywood film, I'm gonna star as myself).
Lying in bed basically doing nothing than getting better is boring as fff... umm, you know, and reading gloom and doom while feeling real physical gloom and doom is not half as funny as reading gloom and doom when you're all Guang Hoo, so I did it again: I turn to chicklit.

While looking through the list of books to read, I had passed by this novel a couple of times. At the time, the title just seemed a bit too cheesy for me; even now I still think so. However, based on the reviews, I decided to go for it. Someone has mentioned "light" and easy to read... just what I was looking for. But I think that what I really loved about it was the humor; I had quite a difficult time masking my laughter while reading this when the rest of the house was asleep.

"Perfect for You" by Kate Perry is a slightly erotic love story about finding true love and looking past your external distastes to see the real person underneath. I thought the plot was well scripted and easy to follow. Giving you even the smallest details along the way and keeping your interest through the whole book. From the very first page it was defiantly hard to put down. It shows how far some people will go for true love and happiness.

So I would like to start out by talking about the cover. I really has nothing to do with the book, and by looking at it, I would have thought this book would fall closer to the "New Adult" category. However, the characters in the book (apart from Freya's sister Anna) were all too old for this book to be considered "New Adult." Not that this was a problem, it just gave me a little bit of false expectations.

Review originally posted at Ramblings From This Chick
I really liked this book. Yes it's a little clichéd and predictable, but I loved it anyways. I love Miz Perry's voice and the stories she creates. She is able to get me so wrapped up and invested with what's happening that I don't ever want to put the book down until I've finished.

Total: 35 Cents
Plot—5¢
Yeah, so the story is a little weak. Albeit, it is a cute story. It’s a story about a woman that has taken care of her sister since her parent’s death. She lives in a building, a triplex- I think, and the other tenants are guys. She’s kinda put her love life on hold, supporting her sister, Anna, through her education. Because of the unfortunate circumstances happening after their parents die. Freya doesn’t trust many, especially lawyers. And it just so happens a lawyer is i...more

I liked this book. It wasn't very drama like, but it did keep to the story line. As someone already said it was a lite read. Sometimes after reading a book with too much drama it's good to read a book that is tone down and straight to the point also mention a quick read. As I didn't want to put it down, I finished it in one nite.

Meet Freya Godwin…..not your typical young adult. After the death of her parents, Freya gives up on her dream of becoming an artist to raise her sister. With a career in web design, she finds herself at an impasse. Her ‘mojo’ has disappeared. She has a creative block.

I really enjoyed this book once I got past the fact that I was reading the book version of the chick flicks I despise. This was my first book by Kate Perry, but it was good enough to make me buy the next couple of books in the series immediately. The characters were total cliches, but then again, when was the last time a romance novel wasn't filled with cliches? It's the reason we keep buying them, because we know we will be entertained.

Prince Charming has been identified as Greg Cavanaugh. While on the surface he is a wretched divorce lawyer, beneath the surface is a man who is not afraid of showing a softer side and is willing to battle to the end to get what he wants without compromising his principals. He is romantic, witty, charming, sexy, and honest. This is the man every woman once dreamed she would find and has since settled on some variation resigning herself to search for him again in the land of words to bring back a...more
I give this book a 2-3 star rating.
Overall, it was a quick and cute read. It sort of reminds me EXACTLY of those cutesy chick-flick movies. It really had all the antidotes - girl is looking out for sister after parents died, sister meddles in love life, guy is in love with girl but she won't date him, girl dates other people, girl starts liking guy and finally agrees to go out with guy and falls for him, girl finds out guy who likes her and her sister are meddling with the other dates and gets...more

Kate has tangoed at midnight with a man in blue furry chaps, dueled with flaming swords in the desert, and strutted on bar tops across the world and back.
