Wilder by Rebecca Yarros: A Romance Built on Risk, Healing, and Emotional Fallout

Adventure and romance collide when a wilderness expedition becomes more complicated than anyone expected.

Estimated Reading Time: 5min

Xtreme sports meets Suite Life On Deck with Zach and Cody… oh, and don’t forget open door intimacy and a saboteur… okay, that sounds like a lot going on but really, there is!

Wilder

After two lost years, I’m forcing the wake-up call on my life with a nine-month work-study cruise. See the world, experience all of it to the fullest, and maybe (if I’m lucky) find the life I’ve lost.

I just wish I’d known what I was signing up for.

My scholarship depends on tutoring a student. But not just any student, oh no. That would be too easy. Instead I get Paxton Wilder, daredevil influencer and X Games champion. And wherever he goes, documentary cameras, groupies, and high-octane stunts will follow.

I want to hate him. I want to kick his arrogant ego right off this boat. But from the second we touch, my stomach does a full-on bungee jump and I know that Wilder is as much stay-away danger as he is addictive adrenaline.

Content Warnings

Graphic: Sexual Content

My Review

Took me by surprise, Reminded me of The Suite life on Deck if they were doing extreme sports. Outside of the Instant attraction these 2 people seemed to have 21 another, It didn’t really see why they would want to spend time together outside of when they had to. I don’t know how Realistic it felt for people to build a foundation based only on attraction.
I did like the trying to find the person sabotaging angle, I enjoyed the extreme sports and the way it tied into the cruise ship around the world and the university experience, And I thought the characters Made sense and their motivations and decisions also seem to lineup with who they were written as In general.

Would I Recommend This Book?

Yes. If you don’t mind open door scenes, the extreme sports angle was very interesting and the doing college on a cruise ship around the world was really fun.
