Romance Series

Billionaire Lucius Devlin is owner and CEO of the Seattle based Diablo, Inc, a multi-billion dollar business in rehabbing commercial real estate. Lucius trust no one but his closest friend, Geoff Ridgeway, who has recently died and Lucius has inherited his 6 month old son, Mikey. Having slept with Lisa Ridgeway prior to her pregnancy and marriage to Geoff, doubt is left as to paternity. DNA has proven that Geoff is the father. The other person that is near perfect and trustworthy is Lucius's PA, Angelique Colter, whom he hired through the Pretorius Program, choosing the "perfect match" as his assistant. What he doesn't know is that Angie has been in love with him for the 18 months she has been his efficient PA. Upon learning that Lucius is using the Pretorius Program again to choose the "perfect" wife and mother for Mikey to win custody in a court battle with Geoff's parents, Angie connives her way onto the list of perfect candidates. Lucius, after several failures, is told of the perfect fit with Angie and proposes a contract of 6 years to become his partner, including sexual benefits. Quibbling between the two is often, as Angie will not be rushed. For her, this is her perfect marriage and secretly intends to make it work forever with love on both ends. Just as Lucius is beginning to realize he is falling in love with the sexy, perfect partner, her lies are uncovered. He cannot abide anyone who lies to him, even at the risk of losing that "perfect" person. Angie walks out prior to the marriage with her heart broken, but not before leaving a wake up "bomb" for Lucius. Lucius may have his "utter perfection" more than he knows. MORE THAN PERFECT is a really cute story of a man who has lost all faith in love and trusting others. He is a self made billionaire taking over where his father had failed. Angie is nothing except devoted to both Mikey and Lucius. This is an extremely fast read and one that will keep you glued to the end of the story. You will find a very emotional and touching tale with a wonderful and fulfilling ending.
