Publication: October 10, 2017
About the book:
Dr. Ashe Manning- aka Lucifer- CEO and founder of the MTA Crisis Division, Neurosurgeon
I’m an imperfect man in love with the perfect woman. She’s gorgeous, smart, and sexy.
I broke her heart. I took everything beautiful between us and smashed it to hell.
That was the old me. Now I’m in control. I’ve found different means to feed the adrenaline junkie in me. My mind is no longer free, but my heart is owned by one woman. The one woman I can never have because she saw my imperfections.
Dr. Aedon Thatcher- Partner, Thoracic Surgeon
I’m a woman in love with an imperfect man. I see his heart and mind, it’s a beautiful thing.
I left him all alone. I took everything beautiful between us and threw it away.
The stronger me, still loves him. I’m polished on the outside, but uncontrolled on the inside. I disguise my feelings well. I don’t want to love him, but I have no choice. He owns me, even if he doesn’t know it.
Dr. Wren Adams – Partner, General Surgeon
The man standing between the two of them.
My Review:
Yes my followers, once again I am absolutely thrilled to bring you a review of a Kelly Moore novel. Are you seeing a pattern?? Coming soon is her newest masterpiece, Imperfect, and I absolutely loved this one.
Forget the Broken Series, August series, and so on. Imperfect is a completely new baby that is not only sexy and romantic (of course) but is full of action, suspense, and relevant fears that we experience in the United States today.
Three brilliant surgeons – Ashe, Aedon, and Wren – form an emergency/trauma search and rescue organization that assists with various medical emergencies across the country. Ashe is the sexy, brooding Neurosurgeon who has some seriously unpredictable tendencies. Aedon is the beautiful, caring, sexy Thoracic surgeon that has some serious baggage pertaining to Ashe. Then there is the sweet, handsome Wren – a general surgeon that is a longtime friend of both Ashe and Aedon but may possibly be harboring some feelings for Aedon. And don’t let me forget one of my favorite characters – Ander, hired as the secretary/Penelope from Criminal Minds that monitors emergency situations and dispatches teams as needed. He’s honest, real, funny, and I just loved him!
Here is where I need to contain my enthusiasm a bit to avoid spoilers, however, this is an action-packed, fast-paced, sexy, emotional, romantic, and wonderfull frustrating story that is a must-read. There are natural disasters, bombings, funny times, and sad times. There is a love triangle, medical issues, and countless instances of these surgeons giving everything they have to help those in crisis. However, the most prominent theme in the novel though is Ashe and all of his various issues. Kelly Moore expertly develops his character showing a powerful and talented man, then a man that is vulnerable, then a man on the edge, then back again.
For those of you that are familiar with Kelly’s novels, you already know how wonderfully complex her characters, plot, and sub-plots are. Imperfect is another shining example of what this unstoppable author can produce once an idea pops in her head. Imperfect needs to go straight to the top of your TBR.
*Very special thanks to the amazing Kelly Moore for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review. (and listening to all of my tons of thoughts and reactions!)
