Wilde Thing

Steve Wilde is a private investigator that has found himself infatuated by the owner of a coffee house. He doesn't know exactly why, but finds himself spending more and more time there. He has noticed her wedding band, but can't seem to steer clear. When she asks him for help and he finds out she is no longer married, he accepts the case even though she can't afford his normal fees. He can feel her desperation, and feels compelled to help. Liz Adams has definitely noticed the incredibly hot bad boy that has started to frequent her coffee house, but until her cousin Valerie goes missing, she has no reason to really talk to him. She is incredibly strapped for cash, but desperately needs Steve's help. When he agrees to help, they determine the best way to try to locate Valerie is for Liz to work as a phone sex operator for Ultimate Fantasy the same way Liz did. What starts out as a means to an end leads both of them on an erotic journey that sets them both on fire. Soon they are no longer pretending, but filling the missing piece in each other. This is my first book by this author, but not the last. I am looking forward to the rest of the series about the Wilde boys! There is a good story with several well-written erotic moments. What more can you ask for?

After reading this book, certain excerpts to be exact, I wanted to grab my boyfriend and try out a few things. To say that my underwear was nearly singed from my body was an understatment. I have all three of the "Bad Boys" anthologies and almost kicked myself silly for nearly missing out reading about another "Wilde" brother. I cannot WAIT to hear about the other brothers...and cousins. Janelle Denison is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors.

Ms. Denison should be known for her sensually graphic love scenes. Make no mistake about it--this one is a scorcher! Steve Wilde, the eldest Wilde brother, is the gorgeous PI who helps Liz Adams find her "missing" cousin. From the very beginning, they become heavily involved in a hot and steamy love affair, which includes sessions of phone sex and indulgences for forbidden, erotic fantasies. Even though the sex is incredible, I didn't find a meaningful story here--nothing powerful in the sense of self-seeking, spiritual enlightenment. However, if you're looking for lots of wild, erotic and forbidden pleasures, then this is the book for you.

I love Janelle Denison, and this one has got to be her best. A wonderful, steamy read for summer--I look forward to the next one in the "Wilde" series. Janelle keeps her characters real, with true emotions, and she writes a love scene like nobody's business. A must read.

Liz Adams, owner of the Daily Grind coffee shop, wants her customer, P.I. Steve Wilde - to help her find her missing cousin, Valerie. Well, if she is honest she wants him for other things too and it looks like she just might get him. Steve agrees to help her find her cousin who went away for the weekend with a man that she met through her job as a phone sex operator at The Ultimate Fantasy. Liz gets a job as an operator in order to try and find out information about Valerie. She discovers that the one person who can help them is a "party girl" so Liz too must become a party girl. In order to do that she must establish a calling pattern with a particular client and keep him on the phone long enough to bring in big money for the company. So, every night right before her shift ends, Steve calls her and they explore their most forbidden and erotic fantasies on the phone. Then when she gets off of work they explore their most erotic and forbidden fantasies in the flesh. Hot, bare, tantalizing flesh. Grab a TALL glass of COLD water and a fan before you sit down with this one, you're going to need them.
