In Present Perfect, Brad Johnson was sexy, cocky, rich and a complete Smurff**ker. He could afford anything he wanted and could charm any girl he set his eyes on. Everything was laid out in front of him, all for the taking except the one thing he craved and needed. A tragic event forces him to reevaluate his life. When he tries to change, will the people in his life let him move on from his past or will they constantly hold him to the life altering mistakes he’s made? Mabry Darnell is intelligent, ambitious, beautiful, and sassy. Secrets from her

Alison’s Take on Mabry
The initial idea for Mabry was for her to be a female version of the old Brad. As the story developed so did the character of Mabry into something that surprised me. Past Imperfect started out to be only Brad’s POV, but after writing the first couple of chapters I realized Mabry had things to say.
To me, Mabry is a strong and intelligent young woman who has seen a lot of tragedy in her life. She learned to cope as best she could with it, but never really addressed her problems. She chooses to keep people at a distance and stays in control of her life. There is a sadness about Mabry. She’s a lost soul trying desperately to keep her head above water. She’s a survivor, but also very vulnerable. Its never that she doesn’t want or need the connection with Brad. She does, but she’s scared. If she gives in, it opens her up to get hurt by another. When you’re hurt by another then the control is theirs, but when you hurt by your own actions, you stay in control. That’s Mabry.
