Everyone needs Perry in their life. He has the adorable puppy Golden Retriever thing going on, he gets squirmies in his tummy, is cutely entertaining, eternally optimistic, an absolute disaster and so sweet. He struggles to find his place in the world and is a perfect soul who always sees the best in people. He’s definitely not cut out for his latest job which has him crossing paths with St. Clare and it’s safe to say it’s not the best “meet cute”. St. Clare has just opened a nightclub with his now missing brother and feels unbalanced without him there and is desperate to find out what’s happened to him. 
Circumstances lead to them teaming up with some nefarious folk to unravel the mystery of St. Clare’s missing brother. 
Along the way they discover who is a friend and who is a foe as well as exploring the chemistry that bubbles between them. I love how Perry didn’t get full of angst as he discovered this new side of himself and just went with it - as is his nature. As for the missing brother mystery there’s the odd twist or two along the way that keeps things moving and the bunch of baddie side characters also keep things very interesting. This is a wonderfully entertaining and enjoyable read and I cheered Perry and St. Clare along every step of the way to the well deserved HEA.
