The Perfect Man is an adventurous story told by, and through the eyes of, Oliver. At the beginning, Oliver has a picture-perfect, peaceful life in a warm home with his family on the beach in Cornwall. Everything changes one summer when they receive guests. His parents lifelong best friends arrive, along with their youngest and most beautiful daughter, Adelle.


That summer, Oliver loses the rationality he is known for as he slowly falls in love with Adelle. From that point on, everything he does is driven by the desire to become a man worthy of her. His goddess. Since that summer, life has taken Oliver on a strange and lonely path, filled with both extraordinary pain and quiet beauty. The story follows his journey of finding answears until some 10 years later where he is the king of his own kingdom, living what seems to be an ideal life in London.


Perhaps no one had it better than he did before he is kidnapped and tortured in his own home by someone he once called a friend, a man who also happens to be the most popular internet celebrity in the world, known, and regarded as the perfact man. Because of that night, Oliver ends up lying on a pavement, bleeding out with a smile on his face as helicopters circle overhead, broadcasting what would become known as the bloodiest day London, and Britain, had ever seen.

The idea for The Perfect Man came to me in a literal dream that I couldn't stop thinking about. From that came the inspiration to turn it into a book, which I’ve been working on for the last 2 years.

Writing it has made me question the very essence of reality, and I wanted to integrate that into the soul of the story by turning the journey into a real adventure into the unknown, one that leads you to question everything you think you know about yourself and the world you are living in.

While my primary motive was to create a story that you simply don’t want to stop reading until you are finished, I also wanted to leave readers with questions that never fully leave them. I wanted to tell the story in a way that allows everyone to draw their own unique meaning from it, while ultimately encouraging them to have faith in becoming the hero of their own story, regardless of the circumstances they might be in.
