Decided to give Sci-Fi another chance and once again, I was strangely disappointed. While Amazon had this listed as a Sc-Fi this book is more of a cringe-worthy romance. Fate of Perfection is set in a futuristic world with conglomerates that control everything and a main character who is smart enough to circumvent the rules. As every cliche, her love interest, Ryker, is a tough bad boy who is not only smart but devastatingly attractive who loves enjoying the ladies. What made it difficult to enjoy this book was that their "romance" seemed to interfere with the story line instead of enhancing it. As they are fighting to get away Ryker drops innuendos and is blatantly sexual in front of Marie (the child) and other characters in an effort to nag Millie. The fight scenes tried to be serious in that there was hacking, jumping of aircrafts and big guns but it was all cheapened with Ryker's need to express how virile he was. I was more interested in the pirate's world than in discovering if Millie would be successful in getting her daughter to safety. The last chapter of the book was a good hook into the next installment of the series but if it's littered with the same cheap romance, I'll gladly skip it.
