Laney Holt is the ultimate good girl. As the preacher's
daughter, she has lived a sheltered lifestyle, but that
doesn't mean she hasn't ever been tempted once or twice to
be bad.
Jake Theopolis is as bad as they come, and he enjoys
tempting the good girl in ways he knows she likes. A few
stolen kisses show that Laney Holt isn't immune to his
charm, and he uses that to his advantage. What he doesn't
know is that Laney has been betrayed by the two closest
people she trusted and still hasn't gotten over it. In a
story about gaining trust, Jake and Laney travel the bumpy
journey of what it means to fully give their heart to
someone else.
M. Leighton's second installment of The Wild Ones
series is the perfect summer beach read. With its simple,
yet eloquent writing and engaging characters, readers can
lounge around in the sun, enjoying a sexy story while
sipping a drink.
Striking a balance between sexy and sweet, Laney's character
turned out to be quite wonderful. Though she is hurting and
is often restricted on what she can and cannot do, she
didn't come across as stupidly rash or impulsive whenever
she broke the rules her father set out for her. Instead, she
did what she thought was best for her, and any heroine who
can think for herself is one that I have to admire.
Jake, on the other hand, is known to push the boundaries and
though he does throw Laney off kilter, he doesn't press her
too hard either. I found that they were a great pair, each
testing each other without stepping past their limits.
SOME LIKE IT WILD charms and delights much like its hero
Jake Theopolis does. Sexy with a touch of sweetness, it is
the perfect read as a refresher for when you're feeling down
and need a quick pick-me-up!
EXCLUSIVE TO THIS EDITION--A NEVER-BEFORE-IN-PRINT WILD
ONES NOVELLA
First was The Wild Ones. Now, the next book in M.
Leighton's Wild Ones series...
How far will a good girl go for the bad boy she loves?
Laney Holt is a preacher’s daughter. A good girl. Her
only goal was to get married, have babies, and live happily
ever after, just like her parents. Only that didn’t happen.
The two people closest to her betrayed her, and Laney’s
dreams came crashing down. Now she’s left with an empty
space she doesn’t know how to fill. Until she meets Jake
Theopolis, a daredevil with a death wish who has
heartbreaker written all over him.
Jake has no interest in thinking beyond the here and now.
All he wants out of life is the next rush, the next “feel-
good” thing to keep his mind off the pain of his past. His
latest rush? Showing Laney there’s more to life than being a
good girl—and that going bad can be so much fun. Her only
concern now is how she can ever hope to satisfy the wild
side of a boy like Jake. She’s looking forward to trying.
And so is Jake.
