"Whew! Hot and Sexy!"
I'm so glad that the Wildes are such an extended
family. I just can't seem to get enough of their stories
and I believe Janelle Denison takes full advantage of this
fact! This story is about Scott Wilde. Scott works at
Nolan and Sons Construction Company where he pretty much
runs the place for his father. His brother and sister work
with him. One evening Scott and his two brothers, Joel and
Alex are playing pool at their normal hangout Nick's Sports
Bar when a woman walks in. They immediately can tell that
she isn't the normal clientele as she looks quite out of
place. Ashley St. Clair decides for her birthday she is
going to do something totally off the wall. She's going to
pick up a good looking guy and seduce him. This is all for
her. Besides she's going to be moving from Chicago to San
Francisco anyway so she can manage her father's boutiques
in his hotels from there. Ashley struts her stuff into
Nick's Sports Bar and immediately sets eyes on the most
gorgeous man she's ever seen. Scott and Ashley absolutely sizzle together but
both have pasts that make it difficult for them to trust
each other totally. Still they can't seem to keep away from
each other. Can they resolve their pasts to the point
where they feel as if they might have a future together? I know I for one was pulling for Scott and Ashley
to have a happily ever after. I was so bummed to think
that Ashley would move far away and just leave Scott.
Needless to say I avidly turned the pages in this book to
see how Janelle would end this story and I'm so happy that
I got my requisite happy ending. Now I eagerly look for
the next Wilde story!!

In her novel "Wilde Thing" and novella's "The Wilde One"
and "Something Wilde", USA Today bestselling author
Janelle Denison introduced three of the Wilde brothers-men
who live up to their names in every respect. Now, readers
can get to know their cousin, tempting Scott Wilde...and
discover why being bad can feel so very good...
SummarySHE'S TIRED OF BEING GOOD...
Dollar signs. That's what most men see when they look at
luxury hotel heiress Ashley St. Claire. The last thing the
stunning good girl wants for her 30th birthday is another
boring set-up with a stuffed shirt interested more in
analyzing her portfolio than in making her crazy with
desire. The time has come for Ashley to have a scorching
fling before settling down...one hot, erotic night with a
sexy stranger who'll bring out her inhibitions and let her
be as shameless as she dares...a man who has no idea who
she really is. A man like the one giving her body a long,
slow appraisal at the bar and making no attempt to hide
the fact that he likes what he sees...
HE EXCELS AT BEING BAD...
Unwrap me, baby. That's the thought ricocheting around
construction company owner Scott Wilde's brainand
other partsas he tries very hard to keep his hands
off the stunning creature who has just asked him to be her
birthday present. He says yes, of courseit would
just be bad manners to refuse a lady. But Scott is totally
unprepared for the sparks that fly between them...or the
way that raw passion leads to an exciting, clandestine
affair and something much deeper. Ashley may be running
scared, but Scott's got stamina. When he wants something
badly, he'll pull out all the stops to get it...and he's
determined to show Ashley just how delicious a lifetime of
passion can be if she's willing to take a walk on the
Wilde side with him...
