I'm just going to say this now and put it out there for all of our new followers to our blog. Mrs. Lilley can write a new addition to the bible or add pages of her work to the local telephone book and I would still stop whatever it is I'm doing or reading and get lost in her work. That's just me. I love her books! Now, I was a bit frighten when she was writing a new book with new characters who have basically nothing to do with the characters she created from her "Up in the Air" or the "Tristan & Danika" series, which I have such a deep love for. Once before she has proven me wrong and this time there really isn't a difference."The Wild Side" by R.K. Lilley, takes you into the repetitive and mediocre world of Alasdair, "Dair" for short. He's a newly 40 year old man who is a renowned writer and just going through a bitter and nasty divorce that's made him a bit of cynic. His world is thrown for a loop when the sexy and vivacious, Iris, takes a spot on the treadmill next to him and makes him stop dead in his tracks. There is no way in the world this young thing could want his old behind?? He soon finds out he is wrong. This young thing wants Dair and isn't afraid to be forward about it either. Don't let his 40 year old status fool you. He fine with a capital "F" and deserve the fun and attention that Iris gives him, but he can only wonder is there an ulterior motive when it comes to the mysterious and unpredictable Iris?I thought this book was a blast to read. Iris and Dair was such a mismatch, but they made it work. The age difference was nothing but a number and honestly didn't bother me in the least. They were sexually attracted to each other and was having fun, what harm were they doing to each other? They were grown and sexy. Glad they got it on! Iris- girl, I love you. She owns her sex appeal and runs with it. Modesty doesn't fit her at all. She goes butt ass naked in front of an ex- wife and won't blink a damn eye lash. See that's the kind of gal that knows she a bad ass and you would go through fire to have on your side. Loved her. Dair- my sexy, shy, passionate and possessive alpha. I just want to hug and rumble in the bed with you so bad that it just aches. He was so oblivious, I felt, to the fact that there wasn't an ulterior motive with Iris. She liked him alot...what was so hard to believe? Dair is sexy, in great shape and can turn her out and make her past out like any young bumpkin. What I loved most about Dair was that he was so sensitive and wore his heart on his sleeve. Don't find many alphas that can do that and still be consider sexy and manly. Sometimes when they come across like that in books they are just consider pussies and a waste of space. RK's men are anything but. See this is what I'm saying..this woman just amazes me with her characters and how well thoughtout and developed they are. God, I want to be her when I grow up finally!I gotta say I am looking forward to the next installments of "The Wild Side" series, ("Iris" & "Dair"). We have questions that need to be answered like, last year and more sexy time between these two. Prepare for a cliffhanger, not too bad. I will be honest, I was looking forward to this being a standalone! I love when authors give me everything in one book and wrap it up with their author bow of Happily Ever After and then I can move on with my life. But you can't always get what you want and you know what it's fine! Like I said, RK writing leaves you wanting and coming back for more. She has a fan in me forever.Out of a 5, giving this one a 4.5. Great job Mrs. Lilley. Now, give me more Iris and Dair!!Lynne[...]
