Imperfect — Ella Linden

Eden Lowery's life is pretty close to perfect. She has a job she loves, loyal friends, and a supportive family. Yeah, she hasn't stumbled across her dream man yet, and it's been over six months since she's even considered going on a date, but she'd rather be picky than end up with someone who bores her to tears. And most men tend to do exactly that. But one night, one man, and one ill-conceived kiss changes everything, and Eden finds herself thinking far too often about a man who is wrong for her in every way. Nathan Russo has done a great job of maintaining the walls he's kept around himself since being betrayed by those he trusted. Injuries sustained in combat plus coming home to a life that was nothing like what he'd pictured have left him confining himself to the one thing he knows he can count on: himself. He didn't expect Eden Lowery and her laugh, her infectious love of life, or her refusal to do anything halfway to start chipping away at the barriers he's been relying on for so long. And once she finds her way in, he knows it's only a matter of time before she realizes he's not the man she deserves. The question is whether he'll be able to pull himself back together again after she's gone.
