Practice Makes Perfect Berkley Sensation Book 2 edition by Julie James Literature Fiction eBooks

Delightful story that should be made into a romantic comedy movie.

By the third chapter our handsome hero J.D. was appearing to be a real jack-hole. Actually, I found both the hero and the heroine to be career greedy idiots. It was a totally different take on a couple for me. And, I just loved it.

What I loved the most about this story was every time I thought I had the feud figured out I would be wrong. This war of roses tale was so funny. There was two scenes that were hilarious. In one scene I kept thinking, oh Payton Don’t NOT do it.... The scene with Payton in the court room was priceless, and it’s where I came to the conclusion that this story is movie worthy.

The only complaint I have with the story is the happy for now ending. I figured out how the competition would end and it was perfect. But, I really wanted to see more of this couple and their future.

Best line in the book. . . . "It’s like a ritual with these guys: ‘Hey, how ’bout those Cubs’ ”—the bad male impersonation was back—“ ‘let’s play some golf, smoke some cigars. Here’s my penis, there’s yours—yep, they appear to be about the same size—okay, let’s do some deals.’

Excellent Read.

Practice Makes Perfect Berkley Sensation Book 2 edition by Julie James Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

"Frankly, he was fed up with all the things that constantly came between them, like work and Chase Bellamy and client dinners. And clothes."

THE STORY Payton Kendall and J.D. Jameson have worked together as associates in a big law firm for eight years. During that time, the two have had a contentious relationship. Now only a few weeks before decisions for partnership are made, the two seem to be encountering one another more than ever. The question is whether their years of animosity between them only masks an attraction than neither wants to acknowledge.

OPINION This is a fun, rousing romance between two professionals. Payton and J.D. are an intriguing couple. The eight year "courtship" is funny but also sad because their history of one of misunderstandings and missed opportunities. This is a book build on a spectacular misunderstanding so those who don't like those type of storylines should be forewarned. The incredibly silliness of the misunderstanding, however, makes is less annoying than could be expected. I ultimately really liked J.D. in this book because he ends up being willing to sacrifice himself and his ambitions for Payton. This is a likeable couple of characters who have a really funny antagonistic courtship that ends up with a feel good happy ending.

WORTH MENTIONING This book has a very good depiction of life in a big law firm. It is refreshing as an attorney to read a realistic depiction of lawyers' lives rather than movie versions.

FINAL DECISION I really liked the setup for this story. It is a great depiction of two big firm lawyers falling in love. Extremely funny, this book is a ready made romantic comedy.

CONNECTED BOOKS PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT is a standalone.

STAR RATING I give this book 4.25 stars.
My first thought after reading this book was that I had to write a review because I loved it but I also realized I would have to come up with some thoughtful words to convey what I loved best about it. Because I really, really loved it and I think that if you like a good romance, you will like this one, too.

In this story there are two attorneys, J.D. and Payton, who have given everything they have for over 8 years to ‘the firm” with the goal of reaching that pinnacle of success partnership. It’s a tough climb for them in this good ‘ole boy network. Each one has something in their life’s experiences that make it personal and crucial to achieve. They want it and everything else has come second for e-i-g-h-t long years. Somewhere along the way JD and Payton have become adversaries. They are consumed with one-upping the other. Neither one of them seems to dwell too much on the whys of it, just that the other isn’t going to show him/her up. When they are forced to work together on a project, everything changes. They have to become a cohesive team for the benefit of their prestigious firm and, let me tell you, the firm comes first. This is when it really gets interesting.

James uses witty dialogue and concepts to create scenes and characters that will make you think “oh, no, he/she just didn’t do that….” There is even a bit of Pride and Prejudice here! What I loved best about this story is how James weaves in the legalese and wit in such a manner that you become so invested with the outcome. Seriously, this is romance at its best and my heart was squeezing by the end.

Spoiler…sort of but not really…more of an acknowledgement. If you list hot sex scenes as a “must have” in your reading, you may find yourself slightly shortchanged on this point. Sort of, or maybe you can try to enjoy something slightly different. The interactions between the characters are serious foreplay. Honestly. James doesn’t spend a lot of time describing the sexual act. What she does is write intricate dialogue that is so spicy, witty and hot that you feel the need to fan yourself as you get to the point where they seal the deal and see that she basically says, “….they got it on.” Okay, she doesn’t say it exactly like that but you get the idea. What I ask is that you give her one chance. Read this book or any of her other books and see what I mean. I think you will find that you don’t miss it. Hey, I love a hot sex scene as much as the next woman but I like this angle too. My imagination was able to soak it all up and it was delicious.

Julie James writes modern romances but it is more than that. She writes great modern romances and she uses her legal background, tweaked with some well-placed humor, to create characters who really draw us in. Add in one tree-hugging, hippie mom, a pair of snotty uppity parents and some humorous courtroom scenes that you have never seen in any of those television dramas and, well, I don’t want to ruin it for you but it’s especially entertaining.
Delightful story that should be made into a romantic comedy movie.
