Review: Something Wild & Something Reckless by Lexi Ryan

 Sarah      Lexi Ryan, Reckless & Real Series, Review, Something Reckless, Something Wild     No comments   



“You need a good guy. A long-term guy. One who does dates and romance and emotional strings…I’m just an asshole who wants to tie you up, make you come, and walk away.” 

Samuel Bradshaw is a man with a reputation—the kind of reputation that should have me running the other way. Instead, it has me searching for the shortest distance to his bed. I won’t be the starry-eyed girl who thinks she can change a man like Sam, and despite what he thinks, forever is not what I need. I need the things he makes me feel, the way he turns me on, and the promise of pleasure in his eyes. I need SOMETHING WILD.
Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Goodreads
Lizzy Thompson has had it bad for Sam Bradshaw for years.  She tried to seduce him once and he shot her down.  Even though he is a playboy, why can’t she let him go?  She won’t forget what he did to her.  Will one night satisfy her need/want of Sam? 

Sam is the bad boy, playboy, that isn’t looking for love.  The only thing Sam loves is having a different woman every day and he doesn’t have a problem with it.  He has wanted a piece of Lizzy for a long time.  Will one night be enough? 

I really liked this prequel to Sam & Lizzy’s story.  It gives you insight on Lizzy’s emotions and feelings.  Lexi Ryan always captures me from the beginning of every story that I read of hers.  The New Hope characters have captured my heart and I recommend reading every single one to stay up to date with all the characters, their drama and their hot steamy sex!  I can’t wait to see what’s to come with Sam & Lizzy.  I gave this 4 stars because it was a novella and wasn’t really long enough to totally wow me, but it was still pretty awesome. 

He talks dirty to me, but I don’t know his name.

He wants to tie me up, but I don’t know his face.

He turns me on, but I couldn’t point him out in a crowd.

I’ve fallen for an anonymous stranger, and now the anonymity ends. I want more than typed secrets and texted promises. I want something reckless. Heat. Passion. The thrill of being entirely possessed.

Because I suspect this anonymous stranger isn’t a stranger at all.

*****

Lizzy Thompson met riverrat69 online through a service promising to deliver meaningful relationships by forbidding its users to share names or photos until they’ve reached a certain benchmark. She was looking for love. He was researching an investment. They hit it off. Talked and flirted, hid behind screen names and cartoon avatars.

Now they’re breaking the rules and meeting in person. But Liz is prepared. She’s picked up hints and followed clues. She’s nearly convinced she’s discovered the identity of her dirty-talking online friend.

She wonders if her ex-lover Sam Bradshaw knows her identity too.
When she rolls the dice on one reckless night, her chance at something real could crumble.

Something Reckless is part one of the Reckless & Real series. Part two, Something Real will be released in 2015

Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Goodreads



Lizzy Thompson decided to try an online dating site, where she met riverrat69.  Her mystery man talks dirty to her, wants to tie her up; everything she wants with Sam Bradshaw.  She has finally decided to do something reckless and meet riverrat69.  She thinks the whole time it’s Sam, is it who she wants it to be?  At one point, she thinks she has figured out who is really behind the screen name and dirty talk.  

This is part of a series and is not a typical Lexi Ryan cliffhanger.  Lexi’s normal style will leave you with information trying to figure out, “what the hell just happened?”  I promise you will find out who riverrat69 is before book 2.  But after reading the story, will your guesses as the reader be right?  Every time I thought I had it figured out who Lizzy has an online crush with, I was wrong. 

I gave this novel 5 stars because not only do I love Lexi Ryan, I love Sam Bradshaw and his bad boy ways.  He has decided to follow his heart and be a good man.  How will this pan out with Lizzy?  Will she get the love and affection she needs?  Will Sam stay the playboy forever?  You will have to read it and find out.  Look for Part two to be released also in 2015.
