“A very enjoyable read with a believable plot, likeable characters, and some sexy lovin’ on the side.” — Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews

Freya Godwin's muse has gone MIA.

With Freya just hired to redesign the top adult website company in the country, her creativity couldn't have chosen a worse time to disappear. Determined to get her sexy back, Freya puts an ad online, hoping to find the right man to inspire her.

Unfortunately, all roads point back to her upstairs neighbor Greg Cavanaugh. He's everything she doesn't want: a playboy and scumbag lawyer. Except if he's so wrong for her, why does being with him make her believe anything is possible?

Reader alert! If you're looking for...

WOW...Ms.Perry I'm totally in LOVE with your masterful creativity! Every book should be replicates of your standards. I adored "Perfect for You - the 1st Laurel Heights novel". The following are all the nuggets I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated :-
1. Strong independent women who are not afraid to admit "I need a little help in re-discovering their passion for life & love."
2. Strong characters who made the story enjoyable and made you wish to have them leap from the book into our own realities as our own b.f.f's - Personally Jade will be mine - hope there's a story of her Ms. Perry :)
3. Loved the balance of humor ; love; friendships ; the passion- off the charts & the amazing real-ness of the relationships.
4. I appreciated the flow of the story which held my interests from the first page-it was strong; focused and detailed without being boring.
5. Certainly loved that the other books in this series are readily available so I don't have to break momentum by grieving & anticipating the rest of the books.
6. Definitely an author to add to your FAVORITES...

Thank-you for being so thoughtful & creative Ms. Perry your work is like fine art; long after you' ve left the gallery you remember how you felt when you first laid eyes on the masterpiece that captured your attention! So to all read-aholics like myself when your in need of the perfect escape just grab any of Kate Perry's books & enjoy her perfect indulgences. Trust me you won't be disappointed. Happy Reading!!!

This was a pretty good story. I liked the characters and enjoyed the storyline. This is the first story I've read by this author and based off this I plan to try more of her work in the future.

Freya is a Graphic design artist. She had to grow up fast as her parents both died and she had to give up her dreams of travel and becoming and artist to take care of her little sister, Anna. Anna's in college now and Freya is helping her through college. Freya doesn't have much of a social life...the closest she's come recently to a date was spending a day with her new neighbor but she dropped him immediately upon hearing he's a lawyer because she hates lawyers.

Greg is a good guy who happens to be a divorce lawyer. He moved to town not too long before and bought the place upstairs from Freya's. He liked her immediately and loved the day they spent together. He can't understand why she all the sudden started acting like she hated him but he's been trying to get her to go out with him since then with no success.

Because her sister still depends on her, Freya can't afford to lose her job but her creations at work haven't been very good lately and with a big design for an important customer she has to do, her boss is threatening her job if she doesn't get her mojo back and come up with something great to wow the customer. Freya decides the best way to get her muse working again is to get out and date and hopefully get some good sex to get her feeling good. She decides to put an add in the paper. The very same day, as she's walking her sister out, Freya and Anna run in to Greg. Greg tries to get Freya to give him something, anything but as normal she tries to brush him off. Anna however, notices that Freya is actually attracted to Greg but just trying to hide it. Anna knows that Freya hates lawyers. This came from lawyers causing their family much heartache and loss years before. It's irrational to blame all lawyers and say that they're all automatically scheming slime because of one instance but Freya isn't exactly rational about this. Anna decides that Greg would be good for Freya and them getting together would help Freya get over her hatred of lawyers which helps Anna (for her own reasons).

Anna decides to meddle in Freya's love life and this includes checking out Greg. Greg passes inspection so Anna goes about trying to help Greg get the inside track and doing what she can to chase off the other suitors that Freya is attracting through her ad. Fortunately most of the men that answer the ad are hopeless but there is one that is a good option even if he only brings up luke-warm feelings in Freya. Greg brings up hot and spicy feelings but Freya tries to ignore that. Soon it becomes apparent that Freya only gets sparks of inspiration after Greg has done something to turn her on. She propositions him for a fling to help her get her mojo back for her project at work. Greg agrees but tells her that he's not just in it for sex...he wants it all and is going to take this chance to prove to her that they're perfect for each other. They have a wonderful first date and Greg does well at getting under Freya's skin. They spend a couple weeks together but Freya is still somewhat seeing the other man as well. As her work deadline gets closer, Freya has to decide if she's willing to give Greg up just because of his job and she's unsure what to do. There's some drama as she finds out some erroneous information and thinks that Greg is responsible for some bad behavior but the true culprit does admit their guilt and Greg and Freya are able to share their feelings with each other and start their HEA.

This was an enjoyable story. I really liked Greg and Freya (outside of her dogged insistence that all lawyers are evil) and was glad to see them work things out. I also liked Anna...she had some selfish reasons for her actions but I also felt that she was partially doing it to help her sister as well. She just didn't take in to account how things could backfire but I liked how she did the right thing wen it was needed. I'm glad I tried this story and I'll probably try more of the series in the future. I'd recommend this story. :D

* note - I listened to the audio version of this book. The narrator did a good job.

"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.
Freya Godwin is a graphic designer for exotic websites and the guardian of her younger sister Anna, after they lost their parents in a tragic accident. Her job is now on the line and she realizes she has lost her creativity. Freya's solution, get her "sexy back." Anna is determined to get Freya together with her upstairs neighbor, Greg Cavanaugh, a divorce lawyer. Though Freya believes lawyers are the "scum of the Earth" because of what happened to her family.
Anna and Greg plot to get HIM closer to Freya. When Greg makes a move Freya is surprised that just looking into his eyes starts to spark up the part of her she has been missing for so long. He is charming and sensual and his touch melts her to her very core.
How can she tell herself this is so wrong when it feels so right? She has to decide. Use him for what she needs or let him into her heart and see if they really are meant to be? Can she trust him or is it just the lawyer in him that is convincing her?
This author depicted her characters with such details on their lives, it makes you cheer for each moment of attraction between them. Their lives rollercoaster up and down leaving you at the end of every chapter not able to leave it for later. One moment to the next truly has you longing for more. It's a real life fairy tale with love, romance, sex, and success.

Exactly the kind of book I like to read sometimes when I'm tired : it's lively, the characters are nice, it's a romance and a story of good feelings, it's very good, it's fast and easy to read.
I recommend it, and I can't wait to read the next episode.

A real fun read

I really enjoyed this book. This is the first book I have read by this author and I will be reading the rest in this series.

Freya Goodwin has lost her mojo at work. Her boss is not happy with her latest drawing for an ad campaign. She is told to get her act together - fast!. She places an ad on a website looking for a man to help kick start her mojo. She does not have much luck as she has a thing for her neighbour who lives in the apartment above her. The only problem with Greg is that he is a lawyer and she does not like lawyer - due to problems that have happen in her family life. You also meet Freya's sister Anna and she can see the chemistry between her sister and Greg and she decides she is going to bring them together.

This is a very good story and the characters are really fun and it makes the storyline fun too. Looking forward to read the next book in this series. Highly recommend this book.

Freya and Greg a web designer who has lost her inspiration and a lawyer who wants nothing more than to be her muse forever, there's just one problem Freya hates lawyers.

This was a great read so many laugh out loud moments, so many romantic moments and a wonderful ending if this was the first in a series I am going to love Laurel Heights.

Welcome to Laurel Heights

Reviewed in Germany on July 5, 2014

Freya Godwin needs inspiration. Fast! She is about to lose her job if she can't come up with a new design for the adult webside of a huge client. She needs a man in her life to feel sexy and wanted and to come up with sexy ideas since the Sin City is depending on it. So she places an ad to meet men even though she has a thing for her hot upstairs neighbor Greg Cavanaugh. They hit if off almost immediately - until Freya discovered that Greg is a lawyer. Her family was destroyed by a scheming lawyer years ago and so she is determined to stay away. But whenever they meet the sparks fly and no other man can bring her muse back like Greg. And Greg has set his eyes on Freya from the beginning and will stop at nothing to win her heart. When Freya starts dating the men from her ad, her sister Anna and Greg must combine their forces to convince Freya that not all lawyers are scumbags like the one who destroyed her family...

I read a book of the series two years ago and liked it very much but I never realized that it was part of a series. So when I came across another one, I started to read the first book since the leading characters of each book about the Laurel Heights community seems to have appearances in other books as well. So I started with Freya and Greg and I also met Anna Godwin, Freya's younger sister and another neighbor, Max Corazao, as well as Freya's best friend Eve Alexander whose story will be told in book 2.

I loved the story and the people. The setting was great and I really look forward to the next book.
