When Things Get WILD

Rate this book
Wild is a 38-year-old trust fund kid from old money. His lifestyle has allowed him to be the carefree playboy he's always been. The endless encounters of Wild sharing multiple women with his best friend was not a deterrent for Savana. She is Wild's best friend's daughter. Wild knew the little girl Savana was, but he doesn't know the beautiful 18-year-old she is now. Despite trying his best, knowing he shouldn't cross that line, Savana convinces him it'll be 'just this one time'.

Oh Wilder, you dirty dirty man.

If you are looking for a quick, spicy read, here you go.

Wilder is Aaron's best friend and has been for years; Savana is Aaron's daughter who has a thing for Wilder for years. Let that sink in for a moment. Now that Savana is an adult she is all in and going for what she wants and the fact that her dad was so oblivious to the tension that probably filled the room at times made me giggle only because it was slightly relatable.

There's lust.
There's teasing...So much teasing
There's spice, and there's love.
There are moments that are going to be in my head for life.
And I feel dirty in the best ways.

Well okay miss ma’am… you did that….

I don’t even know where to start. This book was so taboo and so hard to put down at the same time. There is no time for angst. It starts off spicy from chapter ONE and does not let up. Their chemistry is EVERYTHING!

He’s her daddy’s best friend and the age gap is… gapping and she wants no one else but him.

Will he outgrow the playboy era? Is his best friend’s newly 18 year old daughter the one that’s going to pull him out of that lifestyle and have him breaking all his rules?

🎀 age gap
🎀 best friends daughter
🎀 trust fund playboy
🎀 multiple partners
🎀 accidental pregnancy
🎀 short story

👑 best friend’s daughter
👑 age gap
👑 multiple partners
👑 dual POV
👑 all the spice 🥵🥵

OH.MY.GOD!! This book scratched the itch I didn’t even know I had. Savana has harbored feelings for her dad’s best friend for years. She fantasizes about it. So why not act on it once she becomes of age?! It’s the biggest taboo there is. Of course Wild tried but couldn’t resist her. Of course they sneak around behind her dad’s back. And of course they eventually get busted. The story was short and to the point and I’m not at all mad about it. I loved every minute of it truly. I can’t wait to see what Bella gives us next.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 / 5
🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

The spice was certainly spicing in this book! It’s a nice quick read full of good naughty times.

Wild and his best friend Aaron always go out and bring multiple girls home to…do stuff 😉😈. Aaron is a single father to Savana.

On Savana’s 18th birthday she decided her new goal in life was to seduce Wild because she had been in love with him since she was 15. Of course at first Wild makes all his best attempts at avoiding her advances. But no matter what he does he can’t get her out of his head. Then one day he finally gives in.

Not knowing that Wild is sleeping with his daughter, they keep going out and bringing home women. Which finally Savana has enough of. Wild vowed to her he would take any women home and told Aaron he was seeing someone.

Eventually Savana decides he’ll never put her first, breaks things off and goes to college. Aaron finds out about Wild and Savana and is thoroughly pissed at first. Then he comes to terms with it because Wild and Savana love one another and takes him to get her back.

Woah woah woah!!!!

Things really got WILD with this book! ;)

Start to finish the author drew me in with this one. The author presented us with a young woman who falls for an older man, which age is just a number right? Haha.

Anyway, in this wonderfully written “daddies best friend” romance novel, you’ll find passion, heat of the moment, and a love story to leave your head spinning and heart aching for more.

The character development and plot were extremely well planned throughout this story, and the spice was wonderful as well. I can’t wait to read more from this wonderful author and see what other world she drives us nose first into.

Much love to everyone!

Until the next one ;) muah’ 💋

Savana has loved her fathers best friend Wild, since she was 15. At her 18 birthday party she decided to act on her plan, seduce Wild and get him to want her as much as she wants him. Things didn't happen right away like she thought, she saw they way Wild looked at her over the years, she knew he felt the same but Wild spent months fighting her, fighting his attraction. When he finally gave in things didn't change right away, it took a while for true feelings to come to the surface and be accepted.

This was a good quick read, read it in one sitting. The spice was spicing. Wild is a very dirty mouthed man and i am here for it.
10/10 would recommend

Okay Bella, I see you 😉

This was so freaking spicy and so freaking forbidden that I loved every second of it. Such a quick read and it honestly was so enticing, phewww, I definitely needed a shower after that (if you know what I mean 😉🥵)

So many tropes in this that I LOVE; age-gap, dad's bestfriend, taboo, forbidden, kinky, etc etc. 😍

The tension between Savana and Wilder was so thick, I swear I could feel it in my room. It was delicious 🤤
So so much teasing in this that I was freaking blushing like I was the one getting teased 🤭
The chemistry between these two was intense but you could tell they also had a genuine connection and it wasn't all about the sneaking around of it all and how forbidden it is.

This was my first Bella Renee book but it won't be my last because an introduction like that. Well, I'm exicted to see what I read next by this lovely author!!

I did receive this as an ARC review but I wasn't able to read it in the correct amount of time so I've read it in my own time. I'm sad I left it this long but so glad to have read it now, that's for sure!!

I was hesitant with this trope of "his best friends daughter", but it turned out to be a very good book!! It has lots of smut & a happy ending for the MMC & FMC.

And things definitely got wild with this book.

Bella Renee is a new to me indie author and definitely an author I would read again. This was a steamy novella that got me out of a major book slump. I really love taboo romances and the dad’s best friend troupe was so good.

Wild and Savana’s chemistry and lust was a 5/5. For a novella, it was jam packed with some of the best SMUT I’ve read this month. Definitely going in one of my top 5 novella reads so far this year. The storyline was fast paced but didn’t miss one speck of details throughout. I can’t wait to dive into more of Bella’s reads if this is how she wrote my first intro book by her.

I received my copy of the book for free & am willingly leaving this review.

Where to start? The spice was on point! 5/5 there. The plot was also on point! Dads best friend? Didn’t realize I was so into it! The age gap? Perfection! I loved it. It was a quick read, but well written and sucks you right in from the get go with a steamy scene!

I was privileged to read this book as an ARC, and thoroughly enjoyed it!!

Their chemistry is electrifying and unmistakable, and they share a deeply authentic bond. He grapples with loyalty versus desire, while she is assured and clear about her desires. Their story is charged with passion and tension.

If you're in search of a steamy, expertly crafted romance, this is for you.

This book:
Spicy:12/10
Attitude:8/10
Storyline: 10/10
This book was amazing. I loved every bit of it. Reading it seven chapters at a time was hard because cliffhanger after cliffhanger. This book is exciting and very spicy with the forbidden romance. 10/10 will read again.

If you’re looking for a short, dirty read with an age gap, daddy’s best friend, and pregnancy trope all wrapped up in one steamy package, this is your book! 🔥 The spice level? Solid 4/5, and it delivers exactly what you’d hope for in this kind of story. Quick, spicy, and oh-so-wild!

Happy reading! 📚✨
