A Perfect Ambition

A Perfect Ambition (The Worthington Destiny, #1)A Perfect Ambition by Kevin Leman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When I picked “A Powerful Secret” to review, I didn’t realize it was book two of a series. I read the opening chapters and knew I had to back up and read book one. “A Perfect Ambition” is book one.

Will Worthington was born to be a leader, groomed to be a leader, and had the wealth to be a leader. But the leader of what? He’d assumed for years that he’d become the CEO of the largest oil company on earth. An oil spill, a terrorist bomber, and a family secret shattered any plans Will had.

Sean Worthington could never live up to his big brother’s example, so he didn’t try. He charted his own course and fought his own battles.

Sarah Worthington didn’t need to do anything if she didn’t want, but she studied law and found she was good at it. Good enough to rise in the ranking of the DOJ.

The siblings aren’t afraid to face anything in life. Or so they think. But life is about to throw them all to the curb. And it’s going to get nasty.

Lots of good stuff in this first book. There are a few places where it gets a little redundant on the familial relationships, but persevere because it’s worth it. It ends with a bang. You’ll want book number two, “A Powerful Secret,” on hand to pick up and keep reading!
