A Perfect Mistake (A Perfect Secret, #2)

By: Zoe Dawson

How can they have a future when their past is based on a lie?

The perfect preacher’s daughter, Verity Fairchild, has something that only she and God know about and she wants to keep it that way. Her mistake was easy to keep secret when she was out of town, but now that she’s come back to Hope Parish for the summer, she comes face-to-face with the guy responsible for it all. Boone Outlaw nearly ruined everything for her and despite the fact that he’s now working at her father’s church, she’s determined to stay as far away from him as possible.

Boone Outlaw doesn’t understand Verity’s anger towards him. He barely knows her. In high school she was Holy Mary Verity and she was off limits – except in his dreams where Verity seems way too real. Most of the time he was wasted in high school, not the type of boy Verity would ever look at twice, but he can’t shake the feeling that something might have happened between them. He’s going to break his own rules to get the answers he needs straight from Verity.

What will Verity do when she finds something in Boone that she never knew existed and her perfect mistake is the only thing that could stand between them and their happiness? Will she sacrifice Boone to keep her secret?

This is my first Zoe Dawson read and I was all excited and then when I got into the book, I thought "What the heck," it was a lot toooo tamed for me. However, that's because I'm into more darker reads. So this took a lot of going back to my young un days of straight up fairy tale romance with a twist. Channeling this story into perception and to hit its objective was difficult. But it got done!

With that said. Let's get started.

I had a lot of fun with this book. Loads of Southern charm, sass and, whollie molliiieeee, swoon worthy Boone Outlaw. The man was a walking Givenchy Ad.

We're introduced to Verity Fairchild "Holy Mary Verity" the Preacher's daughter. She returns to Suttontown after spending a year away from home. Returning home is bitter sweet. As happy as she is to see her family, there is one person she can't seem to stop thinking of. Even with the year apart, her thoughts rise and fall, with Boone Outlaw. And he just seems to be everywhere she turns. Verity's had a crush on Boone from her high school days and nothing has changed. Boone is Forbidden Fruit. A bad boy with a bad reputation.

“That’s because I’m bad, Verity. Hadn’t you heard? Those bad, bad Outlaw bays. Trouble with a capital T.”

Boone Outlaw, a third of the Outlaw triplets, he's the Devil incarnate when it comes to Suttontown. A hard working, muscle rippling, sweat dripping, hawwtttt!!! Southern Devil. Smooth talker and a Verity whisperer. He's a sweetheart and a true Southern gentleman. Boone has always had a crush on Verity. She has always been the perfect little preacher's daughter.

She was smart and always had her hand up in class. Had always been prepared and organized.

Holy Mary Verity, who had been off limits in high school, and then disappeared right after graduation, was my fantasy fuck.

With this premise stated and the scene set, Boone and Verity start their tango. Skirting around each other, hooded glances, and passionately angry and painful words, Boone and Verity are tested on how far they would each go for the other. Fighting against family, and reputations, Verity makes her own choices this time.

"The last time we were together, we both didn't make that choice. Now that I know you better, I'm making that choice now.

I want you, Boone."

“I knew he was my downfall. He was what temptation looked like and breathed like, in a hard-muscled, shaggy-haired, blue-eyed devil kind of way…Yes, I was born and raised to resist temptation, but Boone Outlaw was my fall from grace.

Secrets are revealed, lives are shattered, Suttontown get's a holy shock, expectations are crushed and Verity gets a back bone. A family blossoms from A Perfect Mistake.

"I needed him. I'd always need him. He wasn't just my strength. He was everything that mattered."
