Having read The Perfect Lesson and The Perfect Voice, I have watched Trudie and Alex grow into the people they always dreamed of being. I have also witnessed the power of nurturing and the long lasting impact teachers can have in the lives of children. Making Perfect Sense brings long awaited closure for those who believe that with love, dedication, and sacrifice - anything is possible. In Part Two, we rejoin Trudie and Alex, post New York Gala fallout. Life is moving forward and Trudie doesn’t know what to think, how to feel, or even how to fathom working along side Alex. With great growth comes great discomfort and Trudie is in unfamiliar territory. She’s not alone in her murky sea of thought as Alex has his own skeletons to deal with. His ex-fiance Sheila has reared her ugly head, causing the woman he loves to flee without a word. Knowing Trudie’s tendency to be standoffish and skittish when she feels out of control and hurt, he’s on the outside looking in - lost at how to reach her when she still refuses to give him the time of day. He’s called, he’s texted, and when he drops off her stuff, he is shattered that she won’t even look at him. The only luck on his side is their paired project forces their paths to cross. Locked in a conference room (thank you Eloise), he is able to rekindle the connection, fanning the flames through heart to hearts and big reveals, allowing them to come together, yet again. The problem is, with two people as broken as they are - are they strong enough to build a bond that will last forever? Like those who truly enjoy Ali Hazelwood’s books due to their STEM affiliation, individuals with a psychological background would be the perfect audience for The Perfect Lesson and Making Perfect Sense. Unfortunately, outside of that realm, the book may be too focused on the psychological profile of its characters and educational/supportive impact of youth - pulling away from the essence of a romance. For those who are just looking for a romance to melt into, this would not be it. For those who looking for a Michael Crichton approach to romance - a book that educations as well as entertains, you may find what you are looking for. https://romcombc.com/book/making-perfect-sense/
