Synopsis:
If an attractive ex-military biker offered to give you anything you desired, what would you ask for?
Danni
Mom always made the decisions for me: Go to college, get a good job in the city, find a nice man in a suit.
Instead, I’ve lost my job and I’ve lost my apartment. I’m single, I still have my v-card, and I’m wildly attracted to the bearded, tattooed biker who rescued me and my broken-down Caddy.
I’ve only ever done things to please Mom until I meet Colter.
He offers me a weekend of yes. One entire weekend where he will do whatever I ask of him.
It’s a fun game at first, but as the weekend goes on, I realize the only thing I want from him is one he’s not prepared to give: his heart.
Colter
I don’t do relationships. I have my MC club, my vintage bike collection, and my oversized dog. Women are trouble and best left alone.
But when I see Danni, stranded on the side of my mountain and looking like a pin-up straight out of the fifties, I can’t resist. It’s been a long time since I let a woman on the back of my bike. But Danni is one curvy exception.
She’s spent too long pleasing others, and now it’s my duty to please her.
As long as she knows it’s just for the weekend…
Wild Ride is a forced proximity steamy instalove age gap romance featuring an ex-military mountain man biker and the curvy younger woman who steals his heart.
Authors Note: Wild Ride is a short steamy story that can be read in a couple of hours. If you love a quickie then this one’s for you.
Wild Ride is the first book in the Wild Heart Mountain: Wild Rider’s MC series by Sadie King. I don’t know what made me add this book to my kindle unlimited library, but there was something that told me, you’re going to want to read this one. And I’m so glad I took the chance on this new-to-me author and listened to my inner reader! Though this novel is on the short side (83 pages) I loved every word! I can’t wait to dive into more books in this series!
About Wild Ride:
Wild Ride is a standalone short romance novella told in the views of Danni, a single woman who craves independence and freedom from the controlling life her mother wants from her. And Colton, an ex-military mountain man, living his best life with his pup and a no strings attached lifestyle.
Danni is on her way into the mountains on a relaxation retreat to clear her head, when her car stalls on her, stranding her in the middle of nowhere. That is, until Colton shows up on his motorcycle with his pup riding behind him. A guy who straps his pup to a motorcycle, can’t be a bad man, right?
My Thoughts:
My first thoughts after closing my Kindle was, I want more, but in some sort of way, I feel like Danni and Colton’s short story wrapped up effortlessly! I couldn’t get enough of these two! Sadie King definitely has me rethinking my love/hate relationship with short stories/novellas.
I loved Colton and his need to show Danni there is more to her than what her mother wants from her. I loved how he showed her, it’s okay to have dreams, to reach for dreams, and to achieve dreams. This man had my heart in a vice grip throughout this novel.
Danni’s character tugged at my heartstrings. She wanted nothing more than to please her mother, and follow the footsteps that her mother had traced for her. But then the excitement came when she came to the realization that this is her life, not her mothers. The world won’t end if she follows a different path. Watching her find her independence through Colton had me connecting with her character so much!
The reason behind why I gave this novel a 4 star rating, I wanted a flashback scene of Colton and his heartbreak moment. It was talked about, but I felt like this was a pivotal part of the story and detailing the scene would have had me connecting with his character so much more.
Overall, I loved Wild Ride by Sadie King, I loved the romance, the friendship that quickly developed between Colton and Danni, and I loved the spicy nature! If you’re looking for a spicy age gap romance with a virgin heroine and a sexy as sin ex-military mountain man, don’t hesitate to go to amazon and pick up this novel. I can’t wait to continue with this series!
