320 pages


Goodreads Summary:
A good girl goes fabulously bad in the final book in New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan’s sexy New Adult romance series, in which three Ivy League suite-mates seek higher knowledge of just how far they can go.

Months after her boyfriend dumped her, Georgia can still hear the insults he hurled at her. Boring. Predictable. Tame. Tired of feeling bad, she’s ready to change her image, and go a little wild. What better way to prove her ex wrong than a hot night of sexual adventure at the secret campus kink club?

In the shadowy den of the kink club, she unexpectedly runs into Logan Mulvaney, her friend’s little brother. A player extraordinaire too hot for his own good, he may be younger, but the guy is light years ahead when it comes to sexual experience. Now he’s telling her to go home—“good girls” don’t belong here!

Georgia is tired of having others define her. She’s going to teach Logan a lesson he won’t forget—one white hot, mind-wrecking kiss . . . that leads to another . . . and another . . . and. . . . Realizing she’s way in over her head, Georgia runs.

Only Logan won’t let her go. Everywhere she goes he’s there, making her want every inch of him. Making her forget who she is. Who he is. And just how wrong they are for each other.



Review

Wild was very similar to Tease. We have the girl who's too scared to go for what she wants, the smoking hot guy (boy in this case?) who pursues her and the controlling mother that's messing up her life. Not to forget, there's also an a**hole that has wronged her in some way. Together these things make for an interesting story but it became a little repetitive for me.

Georgia is a very proper girl but I wasn't a big fan of hers. Her indecisions frustrated me way more than Emerson's did. Every time she gives in to what she wanted, Logan, she immediately regrets it afterwards. Ugh no. It was also seriously mind-boggling to read about the way she lets her mom treat her. It wasn't until quite near the end that she stood up for herself. I was so relieved she put her mom and Harris in their place.

I adored Logan. He can be a little blunt and rough but he was honest and real. Sure he's a player but there was more to him than his muscled arms and chiseled chest. With his no-bullshit attitude he showed Georgia he wasn't afraid to want her and do exactly what he wanted. He most certainly wasn't afraid to use that dirty mouth of his. Some of the things that came out of it were wow scorching hot.

I love how the other characters make more than guest appearances. They're neatly tied into the story and the timeline. I sense that there's a central theme to these books. To be yourself. I don't really remember much about Foreplay but that's the impression I got from reading the last two books in The Ivy Chronicles. Try to embrace yourself and not be afraid to do what you heart desires because it'll be worth it ;)

  2. The really hard thing with this genre is finding something original. It really can be a challenge. Sorry this didn't sound out more.

  3. I haven't read the series, but I do agree that after a while a lot of NA books tend to have the same story line and it can be boring :(

  4. Kink club?! Sounds lurid! And three stars (or kitties) is a good rating for NA. I'll check this out!
