Book Review: Wild by Laramie Briscoe

Heaven Hill Generations Book 2

He was my salvation...

Addalyn “Addie” Blackfoot

I was somewhere I shouldn’t have been, doing something I shouldn’t have been doing. As Tyler Blackfoot’s daughter, I know better. There are expectations to being who I am, but I’ve never fully lived up to them.

Adoption.

It’s supposed to be the answer to prayers – both for the parents and the child. Me? I’ve always felt a little out of place, like I couldn’t settle down, a flower blowing in the breeze, waiting to be uprooted.

Until the moment he stepped in front of me, taking the blade of the knife meant for me. I didn’t know his name, but the way he looked at me, it was like he knew all my secrets, but didn’t care. It was reckless and passionate, and I never thought of the consequences.

I figured after I got what I wanted from him, I could break it off and never see him again.

I was wrong.

Wilder “Wild” Evans

She came into my life when I least expected it. Strong, fearless, and ready to take whatever the asshole holding the knife was going to dish out.

For months after, I couldn’t get enough of her. Her joy in life, the way her eyes lit up when she saw me, and the smile that popped dimples in her cheeks when she wasn’t paying attention. She calmed every part of a man who’d never had steady and I craved it.

Then it was gone. She became a different person, left without a trace, and ignored my texts.

Fate intervened, and I found her again.

I'm her calm...

She's my wild...

My Review:

This is what happens when two lost souls find each other. You get a gritty, gripping emotional drama that left me fighting my tears at the same time as I was sighing for the sweetness. On the surface, Addie looks like she has everything she could possibly want. After all, she’s a Heaven Hill Princess. But what if that one thing she needs is the one thing no one around her has been able to give? Until a stranger rolls in to town. One who’s just as scarred and broken as Addie is. And in many of the same ways, too. Wilder has no one left on Earth he can call his own, but the pain he sees in Addie is familiar to him. It calls to him. These two battered hearts just might be the salvation of one another. Grab the box of tissues and settle in for the long haul. Once you get started reading this book, you’re not going to want to stop. Not for food, work, sleep, nothing. Now that I’ve finished it, I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.
