This book was a bit of a letdown for me.  I absolutely adored "Wild" and had hoped this book would be as good but didn't feel it was.  Part of it was the main character, Ridge.  I didn't like how he treated Amy and the others in the book.  Instead of just telling her he didn't want to see her anymore he would do things to try to get her to leave.  With other people in the book he wouldn't just say what he wanted to say, he would try to convey his feelings with a look, which I found very irritating.  The writing seemed a little rough to me as well.  It felt like the book would jump forward too far and I had a hard time understanding how he had gotten to a certain point.  I even went back and reread some chapters, thinking I may have missed something.  I didn't feel connected to the characters like I did in "Wild" and the whole thing felt flat to me, even the bedroom scenes.  (They were nowhere near as hot as those in "Wild".)It's never good when you're so excited to read a book you mark it on your calendar and buy it the first day it's available, then find out it's not nearly as good in the first in the series.  I don't think I'll buy the next in the series until I read a sample first.
