Chasing Perfection Vol. IV by M.S. Parker Blog Tour


I'd always been the type of woman who knew what I wanted and went after it, and it had been the same when I'd finally admitted to myself how I felt about DeVon Ricci. Once I got him, nothing had come between us, and I knew nothing ever would.

When the CEO of Mirage Talent, DeVon Ricci, gets a mysterious visitor with surprising news, he's forced into a position he's never been in before. He's given a choice between something new that will change his life forever and the first woman he's truly ever loved and trusted.

As secrets are revealed and lines drawn, will Krissy and DeVon be able to keep their happy ending?

Angie☆☆☆☆
This book picks up where the last one left off. There is angst, love and hot sex. DeVon has a surprise visit from someone from his past. Given an ultimatum, DeVon doesn’t know what to do. Krissy can tell something is wrong, but DeVon won’t talk about it. While dealing with a situation at Mirage, Krissy has to decide should she fight for what she wants or just let things happen. I couldn’t believe what she almost did, I was actually shocked!!! This was another great installment!

Characters: The characters were well written and believable.
Sex: Holy hotness
Religious: No
Would I recommend to others: Yes
More than one book in the series: Yes
Genre: Romance
Would I read more by this author: Yes

This was a beautiful ending for Krissy and DeVon. They had to fight long and hard to get there but they got there. As always, the chemistry was high, the fighting was extreme, and DeVon's past is a cow. You can't have a man like DeVon and not have the past show up at least once. Krissy has shown her strength throughout the series, she fought for love. Love the cross over with Club Privé: French Connection (Gavin and Carrie). On another note, I would love to see a Landon book! :)

Can't wait to see what lies ahead for M.S. Parker!


Angela☆☆☆☆☆
Wow! Yeah… That was a seriously messed up predicament DeVon found himself in. Oddly enough, the thing about it that surprised me the most was that Sasha was the first (and apparently only) crazy woman he got entangled with and had to get a restraining order to get untangled from. I suspect that there will be readers who complain that the storyline is too fantastical to be believable. Thankfully, the extremes to which Sasha goes to reinsert herself into DeVon’s life are not something that happens often, but sadly I suspect that it has happened in real life a time or two. What, you demand to know. This is where I must admit that I’m not gonna tell you because it would be a MAJOR spoiler.

Suffice it to say that Sasha’s reappearance seven years later causes a lot of turmoil in DeVon and Krissy’s relationship – a relationship that has now been going strong for a year. The chemistry between them is just as intense as during the previous books in the series, but the sex is even hotter as DeVon has introduced more of his kink into the bedroom. It is because things are still so hot between them that it is so noticeable when Sasha drops her little bomb on DeVon because he suddenly becomes distant and distracted. So even though Krissy has no idea what’s going on, she knows something is pulling DeVon away from her. I will admit that I was surprised by Krissy’s sudden insecurities regarding DeVon and how she seemed hesitant to fight for him – even before she knew what she was fighting for. Fortunately, Ms. Parker drops enough clues that the reader sees the writing on the wall long before the overworked and distracted Krissy does – it was a literal “Ohhhhh” moment for me.

While it is true that Chasing Perfection Vol. IV can be read as a stand-alone book, I recommend against it. Not because you won’t know what’s going on or will be lost, but rather because what makes this installment so impactful is seeing what DeVon and Krissy went through to make it to this point, particularly important is DeVon’s playboy past and Krissy’s ball-busting attitude. For readers new to the series, I think it will be the difference between a good read and a great read and this was definitely a great read for me. So if you picked this up planning to read it as a stand-alone, do yourself a favor and read volumes 1 – 3 first because DeVon and Krissy’s story was a hot and wild ride that I doubt you’ll regret accompanying them on it. And if you’ve read and enjoyed volumes 1 – 3, what are you waiting for? Grab Chasing Perfection Vol. IV now because spending time DeVon and Krissy is well worth the price of admission.


Ruthie☆☆☆☆
I have enjoyed all of the books in this series and was delighted to get another insight into DeVon and Krissy's romance. I know this says standalone, but really, I think you should read them all to get the whole story. It was by turns fun, sexy, dramatic and heartwarming. I enjoyed the plot, which was comfortably predictable, and was delighted at the outcome.

Looking forward to what Ms. Parker comes up with next!

Chasing Perfection Vol. III by M.S. Parker Blog Tour


“If DeVon Ricci thinks I'm going to apologize for what happened, he's sorely mistaken. I don't care how hot the sex was, or even if he sometimes seems like he's going to be a decent guy, I'm not asking for forgiveness. I don't need it. I've done nothing wrong. We were never anything to each other but two nights of great sex.”

“Why, then, am I still drawn to him?”

When DeVon Ricci discovers that his perfect Krissy Jensen isn't so perfect after all, he retreats back behind the walls he's put up to keep himself from being hurt. As truths begin to reveal themselves, DeVon must decide if loving Krissy is worth the risk of a broken heart.

Can Krissy and DeVon finally put aside everything that's tried to come between them and admit what they've both felt from moment one? That, together… they're perfection.

Ruthie☆☆☆☆
Imagine my delight late last night when this arrived on my Kindle. Thank you so much Ms. Parker for giving me the perfect ending to my weekend – even if I am going to be tired all week!

After the misunderstandings of book 2, it was time for some issues to be tied up, for two people to come to terms with their new reality, and for us to get the outcome we want. Does it happen? Well, you will have to wait until it is released to find out – but I can tell you that it is a good read... and there is more promised from the group of characters that we have grown to love through Club Privé and beyond!


Shelby☆☆☆☆
I'm so happy to announce this installment was everything I was hoping for!!
DeVon and Krissy's story continues right where it left off in book 2.
This installment had the "meat" I was hoping for, we finally got to see these guys accept their feelings and follow them.
Moral of this story? COMMUNICATION is key.
But, it was awful comical to watch this lesson play out ;)
Explosive chemistry, sweet romance, humorous moments, and seriously HOT erotica all came together to make the conclusion to this series everything I had hoped it would be.

I'll definitely read more by M.S. Parker!


Shannan☆☆☆☆☆
Vol III gives us a better perspective as to what these characters are all about. DeVon has proven he is a domineering, total alpha, confusing man. Can he get past what Krissy has done? Krissy is a strong female that knows what she wants. Does that still include DeVon?

The drama between the two continues with the questions answered from Vol II. This was a great read. I loved the characters and how it was all brought together in the end.


Angie☆☆☆☆☆
After the cliffhanger of an ending on volume 2, we finally get to see what happens! Whew! As usual between this dynamic couple they still have their ups and downs and each are so stubborn. However, the book was just as good as the other two and such a good read. I love this couple and I really wish there was just one more installment, I hate to see it end.

Characters: Some of the issues each character dealt with, jealousy, trust, etc., are what we all deal with in real life so some aspects of this story and the characters were really easy to relate to.
Sex: Oh yeah and H.O.T.
Religious: No
Would I recommend to others: Yes
More than one book in the series: Yes
Genre: Romance
Would I read more by this author: Yes


Angela☆☆☆☆☆
YAY! I was seriously beginning to wonder if these two were ever going to get their act together. I suppose that in a town where everything is “spin,” it’s hard to have open communication. But the way Krissy and DeVon nearly destroyed everything with their inability to ask questions of one another definitely kept me on the edge of my seat as I dove into Volume III.

As the previous two volumes provided insight into Krissy and DeVon as individuals, Chasing Perfection: Vol. III was all about whether or not they would work as a couple, especially when they both were used to being the one in control. While there was tons of DRAMA along the way and new characters to love (Landon and Franco) and hate (Krissy’s mom), this was definitely the romance part of the series. Witnessing DeVon realize exactly how much he had messed up and wondering whether or not he could fix it was great. Even better was Krissy acknowledging the mistakes she had made along the way and her willingness to meet him halfway.

Chasing Perfection: Vol. III is an excellent end to the series. The relationship development, the drama, and the sex (oh so freaking hot) all worked together beautifully. I thoroughly enjoyed the author’s writing style and the characters she creates. I’m looking forward to reading Ms. Parker’s next series, Sinful Desires, as well as going back and reading her Club Privé series.

Chasing Perfection Vol. II by M.S. Parker Blog Tour


I’m sick and tired of my boss, DeVon Ricci, screwing with me. He signed the guy I was seeing just so I couldn't date him, and now he fired an employee who’d insulted me.
If he wasn't expecting me to flirt with every top Hollywood executive to help him close deals, I might have thought he felt something for me.

The problem is, as angry as he makes me, I can't stop thinking about him. There is only one way I know to get him out of my mind. I have to f**k him.

The CEO of Mirage Talent, DeVon Ricci needs to be in control, but ever since Krissy Jensen walked into his company, he's found his control slipping. He knows what he needs to do to get it back again, but the more time he spends with her, the less he's sure he'll be able to follow through.

When two passionate, headstrong people finally crash together, they can't help but ignite. The question is, will either of them be able to walk away unburned?

This is the second book in the series and you must read the first one to understand this one. The tension between Krissy and DeVon is even hotter and both of them are at their wits end trying to deal with the issue. They both finally decide how to get each other out of their minds, they are just going to “do it” and then they can move on. Oh if it was only that simple!!! What happens right at the end of the book makes you think WTH?? But I can’t wait for the next installment to find out how it all turns out!

Characters: Love the chemistry between Krissy and DeVon
Sex: Yes and so d*mn hot
Religious: No
Would I recommend to others: Yes
More than one book in the series: Yes
Genre: BDSM/Erotica/Romance
Would I read more by this author: Yes


Ruthie☆☆☆☆
It is pretty much essential that you read the first installment before this one, and the experience is further enhanced if you have read the Club Privé series.

This book reminded me of a cat chasing a mouse – except here the mouse sees herself also as a cat. It makes for some wonderful moments of sexual confusion and enlightenment. Cleverly interwoven into the story is some of the reality of the agents' lives in LA, but not a lot – the chase is the key!

Please release the final installment soon; that was a mean place to stop...


Shannan☆☆☆☆☆
Chasing Perfection Vol 2 picks up right at the end of vol 1. This cannot be read as a standalone, you have to read #1 to have the entire story.

Vol 2 gives you more insight to Krissy and DeVon. Their interactions have become a game of who can get the upper hand, who can one up the other. The tension between them is thick and chemistry is ignitable.

I love the banter back and forth between the two, Krissy refuses to back down giving DeVon a run for his money. Some questions from vol 1 are answered and even more are introduced. Can't wait for the next installment.


Shelby☆☆☆
I really enjoyed Vol.1 of this series, unfortunately for me, Vol. 2 fell short.
I felt the first 40% was VERY slow: we went back & forth between Krissy & DeVon's cravings for one another and not much else.
The 2nd half of the story really picked up, and this was enjoyable. The chemistry between the two is just off the charts HOT, and the erotica was sizzling.

I was just hoping for a bit more "meat" in this installment, and didn't feel like much "story" occurred.
Hopefully the next installment with remedy this, and know that I WILL definitely be reading that!

Chasing Perfection Vol. I by M.S. Parker Blog Tour


They all think they can sleep their way to the top - blondes, brunettes and redheads. That is, until they meet me. My name is DeVon Ricci and I’m an asshole. At least they all seem to think so. But I don’t give a shit because they never last long. Two or three weeks tops, then they're gone. Not that it matters. There’s always another talent waiting to take a seat on the casting couch, but I've yet to find what I'm looking for. I know what I want and I won't settle for less. I'm always chasing perfection.

The embodiment of the American dream, DeVon Ricci had come to America from Italy when he was a teenager and then, with hard work and perseverance, had worked his way up in a cutthroat industry to emerge as the head of one of the top talent agencies in Los Angeles. Now it looks like he has everything he could ever want, except for the perfect woman.

Shelby – ☆☆☆☆
This was a very quick, fast paced read.

DeVon Ricci is the owner of Mirage Talent Agency, and has an ego to rival ANY Alpha Male character I've ever read. Krissy is a smart, strong, stubborn attorney from NYC who is looking to make a life in California. She comes to Hollywood to interview for a position in Mr. Ricci's company... but the interview process is ANYTHING but "normal."

The characters drew me in, the writing kept my attention, and the chemistry was OFF THE CHARTS!

This story had some steamy scenes, it has a bit of humour, but mostly it hooked me in and I can't wait for August for the 2nd installment!


Shannan – ☆☆☆☆
I am new to these characters, I never read the Club Privé Series.

I immediately found this to be a page turner. DeVon Ricci is the bad boy womanizing alpha we all want to hate, but can't. Krissy Jensen isn't the typical virginal helpless woman that the alpha usually goes for.

I loved the buildup of chemistry between the two. It leaves you wanting so much more to happen. I can't wait till volume 2. Picked up Club Privé #1 while I wait for the next installment. M.S. Parker will definitely be added to my TBR list.


Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
This is a quick, hot read, which promises a great deal from this new series from Ms. Parker. I recently read, and reviewed her Club Privé series, and was delighted to have news of those characters too. I will be looking out for the books as they come out, so that I get the full story as it unfolds.

I really enjoyed the introduction to the lead characters - one perfectly wicked and one wonderfully sassy, both hot and both intelligent. The way that play each other is fun to read and, wow, how I wish that I had Krissy's confidence. There is definitely a great story developing in these plot lines. When things take off, the heat is going to endanger my Kindle.


Angie – ☆☆☆☆
From the author who brought us Club Privé, which was amazing, we now have Chasing Perfection. This is Krissy’s story that was in Club Privé. Krissy wants more than just being a boring lawyer in NY, her dreams are to go to the west coast. When Krissy goes to California for her interview she is nervous and excited. Boy was she in for a big surprise! Her second interview wasn’t supposed to be until the next morning, however, DeVon Ricci, owner of the Mirage Talent Agency, decides not to wait until then. WOW is all I can say. The lengths DeVon goes to for some things are just crazy. The chemistry between Krissy and DeVon is off the charts even though he is a total jerk, hot jerk none the less. This will be another awesome romance series and I can’t wait for the next installment!

Characters: well written and you feel like you actually can get into the characters frame of mind
Sex: Yes
Religious: No
Would I recommend to others: Yes
More than one book in the series: Yes
Genre: Romance
Would I read more by this author: Yes
