BLURB:
The next man in Macy Rollins’s life must be perfect. She’s had enough impostors and isn’t willing to settle for anything less. All she has to do is get through the company contract negotiation season and she will get that promotion she has been working so hard for. Avery Malveaux – one of Philadelphia’s most eligible bachelors – has been hired to work with her as legal counsel for the company. From the moment they are forced to work together tensions are high and expectations are low. He questions her ability, she questions his intentions. After Macy is suspected in an accounting shortage, she accuses Avery of betraying her confidence. Has she once again been deceived by a man she thought she could trust? Can she clear her name and win her job back? And can there be any hope for Macy’s pursuit of perfection.

EXCERPT
Macy rubbed her forehead. Right now, wasn’t the time to fire Michelle and start interviewing for a new assistant. The world needed to stop spinning for just a few moments. Her job depended on finding that money. She picked up the phone and dialed accounting.
“Connie, I need your help,” she said. “Can you run monthly balances on my account, starting with January?”
“You want everything? That’s a lot.”
“Yeah. How soon can you get it to me?”
“Give me a day or two.”
“Connie, one more thing. I’m seeing a lot of new accounts. Several that I don’t recognize. I know we’re going after market share, but I didn’t expect this many. If I send you a list of the names, what information can you provide on them?”
“Well, I can tell you when the account was set up, by who, and purchasing activity. What else would you need?”
“That’s a good start. Thanks.”
Macy ended the call, but the nagging didn’t subside.

My Review
In Pursuit of Perfection is my first experience reading a story by Jacki Kelly. It will not be the last. I thought it was a really good read and I enjoyed it from beginning to end. It was fun and delightful getting to know Macy and Avery.
I am giving In Pursuit of Perfection four and a half stars. I think many readers would love reading this one, as well. It is definitely worth a read.
I received this book from the publisher. This review 100% my own honest opinion.
