'I'll show you my darkroom...'

It's all the way up there with "Come up and see my etchings" and Eve knew it.

Virtually Perfect is a dark romantic comedy novel set in Brighton, England, exploring the world of internet dating. Auctioneer, Evelyn Blake, needs a plus one for her colleagues' wedding. No one likes rocking up to those things alone. Far from a bar bunny, she lands on an internet dating website. Amongst all the bare-chested mirror shots and men-with-no-neck, one dating profile stands out.

Shutterman has been single for a while (since walking in on his fiancée and best friend in the throes in his own bed). Years of hard work, one fluke Mont Blanc shot, and photographer Benjamin Macy finds himself catapulted to fame and fortune. Handsome, young, rich and accomplished, he's the ultimate bachelor. Far from the smackheads and shootings of the Deptford tower block where he grew up, the past he tries so hard to hide.

Bubbling with humour, crackling with tension, sizzling with sex, from Brighton Pier to Iceland to the deserts of Saudi Arabia, Sadie Mills coaxes the reader into a web of intrigue, twisting and turning in a labyrinth of deceit. Sometimes sad, sometimes laugh-out-loud funny, by the time the fateful wedding day rolls around, she'll have you on the edge of your seat.

Descrizione prodotto

L'autore

Sadie Mills is a dizzy (strawberry) blonde hailing from deepest, darkest Devon, where she lives with her Maine Coon cat. She wrote her first novel, after ditching her lover of 9 years, aged 26 years old. She worked two jobs to fund her first creative writing course, stealing Saturdays to attend The Groucho Club in London Soho. Sadie has worked in the legal profession for over fifteen years. She has also worked as a canine beautician and wedding chauffeur, as well as living in a restaurant for over two decades. She has flown in a hot air balloon, ridden elephants bareback through the jungle, and seen Christian Slater in his pants. In her spare time, Sadie enjoys scuba, travelling in the Middle East, and skydiving. She doesn't get much spare time, admittedly. Which is probably just as well. Sadie is currently available for weddings and bar mitzvahs.

5,0 su 5 stelle excellent read
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 28 maggio 2013

This book was a totally unexpected joy to read. I loved feeling the thirty-something's questioning every move the other sex makes. The author takes you on an emotional joy ride. Love, jealousy, hiding the truth froM one another....real people with real angst. Will they work things out? Read to find out.

5,0 su 5 stelle Thoroughly enjoyable
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 28 settembre 2013

This book was really enjoyable from beginning to end. The two main characters weren't 'virtually perfect' but very likeable. They are the kind of couple you come across in everyday life and that is what made the story believable and true to life. The male character's trip to Saudi was interesting with all the social complexities involved.
I understand this is the author's first novel and she should be congratulated on a job well done. I look forward to reading her 'Freefall Trilogy' which I have downloaded.

3,0 su 5 stelle Disappointing

VIRTUALLY PERFECT by Sadie Mills started off with a little bang, but fizzled out before it got out of the starting gate.

I felt the book was a little long and frankly, a little boring. Using the book blurb as a guide, I was under the impression the book would be dark, but funny. The two protagonists had a load of baggage between them and more than once, I thought about not finishing the book. As I struggled through the book, I began to feel the book cover accurately depicted the story quite well.

I thought the author jumped around enough that at times I had a difficult time following the story. Also, when a different language, such as the French in the book, is used, a translation is needed. Not everyone speaks more than one language and authors need to incorporate translations.

There were some funny and true antidotes found, especially in the beginning. The reader can aptly understand the on-line dating scene through the description. "You can find all kinds of men on dating sites. Tall men, short men,...We're starting with looks, because that's where it always starts. Women complain about men objectifying us - making judgments based solely on our looks. The fact is we're just as guilty, we're just more subtle about it. Not to say you have be Brad Pitt, but the sad truth is if you're a Danny Devito messaging a Charlize Theron, no matter how witty your opening or fabulous your profile, when we say we're going to catch you later, trust me on this one: we're not."

Internet dating is a fascinating subject and the author could have expounded for chapters on the subject, but chose not to. VIRTUALLY PERFECT didn't explore the intricacies of internet dating and I think the author missed a great opportunity to do so. I am giving VIRTUALLY PERFECT three stars. The grammar wasn't bad, and I think that somewhere in the midst of all the baggage is a great story.

I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

4,0 su 5 stelle Would have been 5 stars if not for typos !

I downloaded this book free to my Kindle but seeing the current price, I know I would have paid money for it. I don't like a review that's basically just a synopsis so I won't even go there, but what I will say is that the standard of writing in this book surprised me.

With this sort of genre, you expect the writing to be all sweetness and light and plodding along very nicely. Sadie Mills, however, ensures her writing is much more mature and has the trajectory of the book moving all over the place, without it being at all confusing. She clearly realises that it isn't necessary to inform us of every single conversation her characters have and instead lets us just assume their relationship is blossoming. For me, this made a nice change to having to read even the most monotonous of dialogues just because the author seems to feel we won't understand how much his/her characters love one another. So yes, there are little gaps in the story where we are left to assume the obvious and this is later confirmed. It's quite refreshing.

The characters are massively believable, which is always a bonus. I would have liked to have seen a bit more depth to Eve because I think she had this wonderful backstory and all these valid insecurities but there just never seemed to be enough behaviours to back it up. It felt almost as if the author had it in mind exactly how she wanted Eve to be but then also had a very rigid history for her and the two just didn't gel for me.

That being said, both Eve and Ben were likeable and the premise of internet dating isn't something that has been overdone (yet!).

The only thing that caused this book to lose a star is the number of typos in there, which is understandable and to be honest, the strength of writing almost completely made up for it.

All in all, an easy to read, humorous book and I'd definitely purchase Sadie Mills' other work.

4,0 su 5 stelle socially stunted neurotics meet online - what could go wrong?
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 6 maggio 2013

Virtually Perfect is a romantic novel.
sometimes terrific, it seems to just miss presenting with an overall cohesive voice.
happily, it is redeemed by its steamy, vivid, and well-placed love scenes.

30 pages into the book, the story felt erratic and disjointed.
then it hit its stride and pulled me in.
unfortunately, this pattern of ups and downs persists throughout the book.

Eve and Ben are socially stunted and neurotic individuals who meet on an internet dating site.
i had trouble relating to their self-reversing attitudes and their quick-shifting behavior.
their back-stories are compelling but require patience on the part of the reader.

the love scenes are are so well written that they are worth an extra star.
without them, my rating would be 3 stars.
