Blog Tour and Giveaway: Wild by Adriane Leigh

webgoodreads
~ Synopsis ~
 An independent woman, a controlling man, and one wild one-night stand… Kat Kennedy moved to the rugged coast of Maine to start a new life, but encountered much more than she bargained for in dark, dangerous, and seductive Lane Wild. Desire and temptation smolder before she succumbs to her darkest fantasies with the captivating stranger. She doesn't expect to see him again after an explosive one-night stand leaves her breathless and craving more, but just like lightning in the darkness, he shows up in her life at the most unpredictable moments. A sensual game of cat and mouse ensues before the attraction between them reaches a fever pitch—the magnetism combustible, the sexual tension nearly unbearable—and Kat finally abandons inhibition and explores the cunning, selfish, and sexual side of a world she's never known.  They have the perfect non-relationship—passion-fueled nights with no strings attached—until life gets real and the past and present collide in a dangerous storm of lust and obsession.

4.5 Star Review
 
This book is super H.O.T.  I really enjoyed the banter between characters.  Also the sex scenes were of the charts HOT!!!!

Kat is on the run.  She doesn't want to make friends.  She knows she can't risk anyone else finding out about her or getting hurt.  So when a supposed one night stand turns into more she tries to run, but he is relentless.  She tells him repeatedly that she doesn't want a relationship and he says he is fine with it.  She needs to decide if opening up to him is the way to go or breaking it off completely is the right thing to do.  She just can't seem to get enough of him.

Lane or better known as Wild is the bad boy in town.  He jumps from one woman's bed to the next. They all know the score so what does it matter.  When he sees Kat he is intrigued by her.  They end up going home together and he can't seem to get enough of her.  He finally convinces her to have a no strings attached affair.  Can't say relationship because neither want one.  He doesn't understand why she is under his skin he just knows he needs to do something to remove her form under his skin.  Does he fuck her out of his system? Or does he see where it leads?

The reason I can't give this book a 5 star is because it didn't give me enough back story on why Wild is the way he is.  It left me needing answers to certain questions. Maybe book two will answer some considering it is about his brother Ridge.
 
 
~ Excerpt ~
 
His thumb dragged across the seam of my lip. My eyes fluttered closed as he swiped across the flesh. My body lit up with lust and a dull throb settled between my thighs.
My heart stuttered a beat before I whipped my eyes open and pulled away. “Hands to yourself, Casanova.” I backed away and beelined for the front desk. The guilt was already nagging at me for involving him in my life anymore than I should have. “Can I help you with something or did you just come in to torment me?” I slipped behind the counter, thankful for the space that now separated us.
“Saw your car out front. Had to see those sweet lips again.” His eyes bounced down to the lips he’d just touched.
“Really? That’s your line?” I cocked an eyebrow at him, trying to steel myself against his rugged good looks. His dark hair lay carelessly across his forehead, his thick sculpted eyebrows arched, and his lips pulled into a devilish grin that emphasized his high cheekbones and stunning light blues eyes, which flashed with dangerous amusement.  
He broke out into another laugh, his arms crossing his chest. “You're sexy when you’re sassy, Sugar.”
“I am not. And cut it with the ‘sugar.’ I’m no one’s sugar, especially not yours.”
“Hmm, is that so?” His eyes scanned my body, landing for a moment on my chest.
“Eyes up, Casanova.”
His eyes flashed to mine, a small smile curling the corners of his mouth. “Can I take you out?” His large body felt imposing in the small space. His energy was engulfing everything around him, sucking the air out of the room and causing oxygen to rush from my lungs.
“Not a chance.”
“Okay, let’s say we skip the date. I just want you back in my bed.”
My mouth dropped open. “Another original line.” I cocked my head to one side.
“Is it working?” He stepped closer and leaned across the counter, invading my space and sweeping the breath from my lungs.
“Nope.”
“Shame. Those lips wrapped around my co—”
“Don’t even go there. I don’t even—that night was a mistake. I hardly remember it and it’s not happening again.” My irritation flared. I'd never met someone so blatantly vulgar.
“Ah, don’t say you don’t remember, Sugar.”
