Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 03 3, 2014
We met Jenna and Rusty in book one The Wild Ones as Cami and Trick's best friends. Jenna is also Jake's sister from book two, Some Like it Wild. Jenna is spirited, outspoken, and fun loving. She has always looked forward to leaving Greenfield behind and making something out of herself. Rusty is wild, passionate, and charismatic, but has insecurities stemming from his past. They are totally compatible, hot for each other, and have strong feelings. But they do have some issues with communication. Rusty has fears and is afraid of admitting how he really feels or moving them forward. And Jenna needs to know what he feels so she can plan our her own path."He thinks I'm some sort of wild child that will never settle down."A week of enforced celibacy, friends' wedding activities, and the  thought of losing her all makes for a lot of heated foreplay and sends Rusty reeling. Their chemistry is definitely hot and they really are good together. But they are both afraid to rock the boat too much.(Quote)I want to break him. I want him to give in because he just can't stand it. I want him to forsake all else for me, for the want of me, for the love of me. That's all I've ever wanted from Rusty--his devotion. The same kind of devotion I have for him.(Quote)You can love somebody and still end up leaving them. Some people are just made that way--to always want greener pastures. I've seen it before. And I'm not getting attached to a person like that again.But they can't live in limbo forever. Rusty has fears of abandonment. Jenna is tired of being hurt and has to figure out what she wants to do about her future. And life is about to them some major curve balls that will test them personally and as a couple  in ways they never expected.This was steamy, funny, emotional, and romantic. I really liked Rusty and Jenna and getting to see more into Cami and Trick's future. It was  good extended epilogue for the first book, and also more fully explored the passion and relationship of Rusty and Jenna as well. It was told in both points of view allowing us to understand their true feelings that they had trouble expressing for much of the story. This is a novella but it still felt like she gave Rusty and Jenna enough story and conflict and time to resolve it. And also providing more of a chance to spend time with Trick and Cami. This events in this book lead into Jake's book, Some Like it Wild.Complimentary copy provided by author/publisher for an honest review
