Wild Man and an Older Woman😉
I enjoyed this story of Wilder and Maven❣️Maven is an older woman and is known in their small town as the best baker of Maven Cakes😁 When the man she’s dating suddenly turns out to have ties to the Iron Kings, she cuts all ties…..but he’s not as willing to let her go. Wilder steps in to help and she suddenly finds herself a “guest” at the Clubhouse😳 An enjoyable read and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for these bikers next.

MC Age Gap
I loved this age gap, younger man, older woman storyline which had me rooting for them throughout the book. Maven is a strong businesswoman who owns a bakery and finds out that her ex, Cyrus, has connections to the Iron Kings MC which is a rival with the Reckless Souls MC which Wilder is a member of.
With Maven and her business being threatened Wilder wants nothing more than to protect Maven and her business. I loved how Wilder was stepping up and wanting to help the woman he was falling for.

Awesome story, absolutely loved Wilder. He is determined to help people with their problems and when he comes to the rescue of the bakery shop owner, whether she wants his help or not, she’s going to get it. This story has the funny parts, drama, suspense and the bad things happening with one ruthless MC gang. Now this club needs to fix the wrong.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of "WILDER" I love the RECKLESS SOULS MC's alway such interesting reads with great intriguing characters this is full of suspense, danger, violence, steam, ex-boyfriends, Rival MC's, twists that make for a real page turner.
Maven owns a successful bakery business, but when her ex-boyfriend Cyrus trys to cause trouble for her, who's involved with Iron King's MC's she's fierce & determined, independent, he won't leave her alone.
Wilder a RECKLESS SOULS MC's member sees the problem & he will do anything to help protect her & her business, she thought she had everything but found out things weren't as they seemed.
I definitely recommend to get this well written story following Maven & Wilder through all the chaos dealing with Iron King's MC their rivals, will these two get a HEA you must get this book to see how things turn out.
I wasn't sure about this age gap story on reverse being younger man/older women but it was truly a great read one you don't want to miss.

WILDER is an OW/YM trope with a variance in age of 20+ years. For some, this might seem to be too large an age gap. And at first, it took me a little while to see beyond such a big gap. But as Maven and Wilder’s relationship develops, it plays well into Maven’s character. The story does contain quite a bit of deadly violence but not overwhelmingly so, and considering the whole rival MC backstory, it’s to be expected and shouldn’t be surprising. This is not a story or series for the faint of heart but for those who enjoy a good MC romance (and I certainly do!), you are sure to enjoy this compelling tale with its well-drawn characters and extremely engaging storyline. Warning though, even though Maven and Wilder’s story has its ending, the rival MC backstory will not be resolved within this book, leaving the reader anxious to know what’s to come next for the Reckless Souls.

I love this story about an older woman and Wilder of the Reckless Souls MC. Well written and delightful. Wilder find Maven, who owns the For Goodness Cake, hurt and her boyfriend being taken away in cuff he steps in to protect her. He finds that Cyrus is with the Iron Kings and Maven is in danger. He locks her in her room at the clubhouse. Needless to say that Maven is ticked. She has age on her side as she's 50 but Wilder doesn't care as he's 27. They have intense chemistry. There is danger, suspense, sassy older woman, on going war, and heat. She might be older but Wilder knows what he wants. There is a cliffhanger so I can't wait for the next book. I recommend this book.

Great Idea But
This is another book in this series that has a great premise but doesn’t quite live up to its promise: older business woman (50 year old Maven) is wildly attracted to 27 year Wilder, member of an MC. Can they overcome the many obstacles (differences in age, economic background) that stands in the way of their HEA? I loved that Maven was older and a successful business owner. But the characters aren’t fully developed and I couldn’t figure out when they fell in love or why, and that should be one of the most important plots in the story. I think the last few books have had less depth in plot and character development, so as much as I want to love this series, this is probably my last book in this series.

Sweet in many ways
I'm not quite sure how to write this review. I loved that what Maven thought she needed was not that at all and that she found happiness with Wilder. I really enjoyed the speed of the story. Discovering how they felt about each other and it not being a rushed insta love alpha whole ish kind of story. Just full of warm feels, although I will think it's funny if Maven ever figures out the truth of what Wilder did I would love to be there to watch her lay into him . But I can't wait for the next story to see how the rest of this mess in this town can be cleaned up and this family of bikers can be content

She just wants to run her bakery, and keep her customers happy and coming back, Maven certainly doesn't want the trouble that is stalking her. Although maybe the sexy young biker (Wilder), who seems to be very interested in more than her baking. Wilder love the sass and spirit of Maven, but can he convince her to give him a chance? And can Wilder and the Reckless Souls MC keep Maven safe, when they might have an Iron Kings MC mole among them? I enjoyed Maven and Wilder's story, the banter/wit, the heat between Maven and Wilder and the action/danger of this tale.

I love the suspense and action. I love the protection part even though Maven was angry at first. The story revolves around Maven and Wilder. He walks into Maven’s shop, For Goodness Cake and sees Maven hurt. Her boyfriend is being hauled away in cuffs. Then he finds out that Cyrus is connected to the Iron Kings and now Maven is in danger he takes her. As I said, she wasn’t happy about it at the beginning. Maven is 50 and he’s 27 - that is the part I had trouble with. The thought is nice but just not believable for me. If he was like 37 or some then maybe, - 27 nope. But still a great read.

This is an entertaining series. The story is this one stands alone but not the back ground, the character development and what the drama is about runs through each story.
Maven the local cake shop owner is having issues with her man. He's not who he seems and is involved with a rival club. The Reckless Souls eat at her place and keep her safe. Wilder protects Maven and takes her back to the club house, there is chemistry but she's way older and can't see this fantasy coming to fruition.
Could they possibly have a future together or will they even survive all the danger around them?
Great story and characters, I really enjoyed it.

Fifty year old Maven falls for the charms of twenty-seven year old Wilder while trying to fight it, but he keeps pulling her closer at every turn. I like how everyone she tries downplaying it to tells her she is the only one with a problem regarding their age difference. They have amazing chemistry. I like him taking her places she didn’t know existed. She (eventually) sees him for exactly who he is, though it takes her a while to get past her idea that all guys in MCs are just thugs. There is a bit of a cliffhanger ending as they are still dealing with Iron Kings.

Wilder definitely has his hands full with Maven in this OW, YM read. She's fierce as h*^*, determined, independent and Wilder wants her as his own. Problems come in the form of Cyrus the used car salesman, the ex that just keeps coming back. Then there's the Iron Kings, a rival club that Cyrus is affiliated with. Trouble comes in spadeds for Wilder and the Reckless Souls but he never ceases to make her feel protected and loved. Can't wait to see what's next!
“Definitely not a mouse. Or a wallflower. Total fire, hot and all-consuming.”

Wilder has found his woman Maven now he just has to convince her. Maven is twenty years older than Wilder and she has enough problems with her ex, so she doesn't have time for Wilder. When things take a dangerous turn Wilder comes to her rescue. I loved that this author gave us an older woman/younger man MC romance. The writing is well done, the characters are likable, and the story is filled with MC drama, danger, romance, and unexpected twists that made this a great addition to the Reckless Souls MC series.

I am so totally hooked on this series! Wild Man is always right there in the middle of all the club business. First line of defense. I’m so happy to see him find his happily ever after. And Maven is no shrinking violet. While it may not have come easy and the ongoing war with another MC definitely is a big part of this story (and the whole series), their love comes through in the end. I loved it!.

Wilder has bagged him an older woman and boy does he have his hands full! Maven is feisty, and lives for her business. She thought she had a man she could mellow out with only to find he isn't the man she thought he was. When he turns against her Wilder is there to the rescue. Has fate finally found the man for Maven and will she and Wilder get their chance for a happily ever after?.

Wilder and Maven’s story is an older woman/younger man kinda then throw in he a Reckless Soul bro then you get a little violence throw in lot the story line and her ex who has connections to the rival MC Iron Kings. So when these two get together the gloves are off but the rivalry will not be solved in this book.

When Maven and Wilder meet fireworks go off but she is much older and thinks this is just a fling but she is so wrong. As they navigate their relationship the Reckless Souls MC as a mole in the club and they are feeding info to the Iron Kings MC. Looks like a war can not be avoided and Maven soon realizes that the age difference does not matter only Wilder does. Great hot romance and suspense and danger.

Who says you're too old for a biker
Maven owns a successful bakery, Wilder is a biker who goes into her store, he is the tech guy for his club. When Maven finds out her boyfriend is not who she thinks Wilder steps in and now because of her association with him she is in danger so he kidnaps her.
This is the start of their hot sex romance but the MC is at war.
Reading Maven's journey to finding true love was a great read

Wilder (Wild Man)/Maven. Didn't like this book at all. The club business is stupid that at Book 5 the Iron Kings are still overrunning the Reckless Souls. Seems to me the club is not very strong. This book was a lot about Wilder and Maven's relationship and they just didn't click for me so it was hard for me to even finish this book and took me longer to read because I just wasn't interested.

Bakery owner Mavens life is turned upside down by her now ex boyfriend cyrus with links the iron Kings MC. Wilder witnessed the chaos and vows to keep her and her buisness safe. Butbhe wants her more than anything. A well written older woman younger man romance. Engaging steamy and more.

Cliffhanger!
Another excellent story but I'm left wondering what is going to happen next and you haven't given any indication that there will be another book! I love Maven and Wilder together because he's so mature for a young man but, until Nogales is found, not to mention the "mole", the story isn't done. Please tell me there will be another book!!

Amazing!!! I love Maven and Wilder's story!! It's action packed, exciting, wonderful, and relatable!! There is plenty of sexy time, romantic gestures, protective demeanor and playtime! KB has done it again by keeping my interest in the story. I think this is one of the best stories out of this series!

This MC read involves the main characters falling in love from rival MCs. This usually doesn't happen. However, Slayer doesn't care as he wants Chance. When someone is out to hurt her, he will do whatever he can to protect her. Follow along on this intense filled ride to see what happens.

I loved the OW/ YM story of Wilder and Maven. They have electric chemistry, that Maven fights, but Wilder is determined to prove he is more that his age. The danger and suspense will have you glued to your seat.

This battle with Iron kings since the first book is getting kind of old. The age gap was kind of big for me and i couldn't connect with the characters. For a fifty year old woman Maven was kind of acting immature and juvenile for me. How is 20 something Wilder more mature than her. I skipped chapters and just couldn't get involved in the storyline.
November 9, 2022
Wilder’s and Maven’s story is a twist on the OM/YW trope. At first, I wasn’t sure if I was going to enjoy this one, but was soon drawn into the story. It’s very entertaining, well written and an enjoyable read. *this was a complimentary copy and this is my honest review*
