Wild For You
I’m an average girl.
He’s a famous bull rider.
He doesn’t know that I’m into him.
The first time Cash Boyd locks eyes with Erin Stone, sparks fly, and not only the clutch-at-your-sheets kind. There is something about Erin that makes him want to push her away while at the same time drives him wild for her. He’s a man of many things, but being helpless at the hands of a woman isn’t one of them. Finding himself at her mercy, he intends to make her job as hard as possible for her.
Burning with desire for the one man who’s the shadow to her light, Erin gives in to Cash’s advances…even though she could be destroyed by the truth she’s afraid to disclose. Little does she know that there is also more than meets the eye to Cash and she might just get more than she bargained for.
Cash might be the best at taming bulls, but taming her heart could prove to be the greatest challenge of his life.

September 8, 2017There goes another book I wanted to read to the NOT INTERESTED pile.
Can't take 59% into a book and not a single round between the sheets. Too looong. Among other reasons.

I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.
After reading a few of J. C. Reed's other stories, I was ready and willing to jump into Wild For You feet first and get to know Cash Boyd that was first introduced in Beautiful Distraction on a more personal and naughty manner. It wasn't long until I was completely wrapped up in the tug of war between Cash and Erin and rubbing my hands together in anticipation of the sparks between these two!
Cash Boyd proves to be more stubborn than the bulls that he has ridden and become injured by. Cash evoked lots of emotions ranging from frustration, anger, to full on lust. While I eventually fell for him, it took a little while to get past his tough exterior and see the misunderstood man underneath who learned to put up walls early due to tragic circumstances. He has spent years punishing his body and running from his emotions until he can no longer do either when the beautiful and sassy Erin shows up on his doorstep.
Erin secrecy and passion for helping others fascinated me and endeared her to me early on. I couldn't help but feel her every moment of aggravation, bewilderment, and unwanted lust for Cash. She kept me on my toes emotionally and wondering what she was going to do next to get through to Cash and be able to help him.
J. C. Reed delivers a story that frustrates, titillates, and keeps your heart bucking wild from beginning to end. I highly recommend Wild For You for a story that shows how two broken people can come together and become whole again. I can't wait to experience more of J. C. Reed's stories and meet more of her stubborn and amazing characters!

2 Optimistic-Stars! ★★
This was less romance and more story. It felt like i was watching a movie on Lifetime. Despite the constant flirting and hiding of emotions between Cash and Erin, it didnt grab me. The prologue was interesting and made me gasp but once the story got started, i just kept questioning myself, 'why am i reading this?' -1★
-1★ Don't get me wrong, its well written and i understood from the very beginning the feel and personality of the characters but still, i cant say i care for the long story with little happening in-between the beginning and end. The same topic is pushed throughout every sentence of every paragraph: 'Cash is a hot jerk and Erin is an optimistic good girl.'
-1★ Sadly i had to DNF this book. Ive been reading a lot of awesome books lately and this one doesn't reach the mark.

Holy hell, Cash. After reading Beautiful Disaster (yes you should read) I had hoped for a look at his brother Cash and man, be careful what you wish for! I got a look and so much more. I absolutely loved this book.
Cash the youngest of the three brothers is a champion bull rider and during a final championship ride he's critically injured, his recovery is nil mainly due to his own refusal for any help. From anyone, especially his family. He's isolated himself and run off every therapist his Father has hired and when the new one arrives he makes her life just as hellish as the rest. However... and it's a big however, when he meets Erin Stone there is something about her.
Erin is hired by Cash's father and she's good at what she does. Getting people back on there feet. Without therapy Cash won't walk unassisted again and the pain will never get better. Cash knows this, Erin knows this. Cash repeatedly doesn't show up for their scheduled times, disappears on her, offers to buy her off so she'll leave him alone. He just doesn't quit. Neither does Erin, so for a while these two do the dance, all the while fighting the attraction between the two. Cash makes the first and fast move, trying to snow her into thinking just a kiss will motivate him and he'll do whatever she wants. The dialogue between these two was insanely good and steamy as all get out. Meanwhile we get to meet the other family members, see Kellan and Ava again and meet Ryder who, well... I can't wait for his book. Cash and Erin are experts at avoiding uncomfortable conversations as well, Cash has some things he's hidden and offers them up, hoping Erin trusts him enough to open up to him.
So will she? Remains to be seen. Will the two of them continue to sling the proverbial bull crap at each other or will they both give in? Read this book!! Sigh!
I love Jessica's books and this one tops the list. It's got everything you want and so much more. I loved the dialogue between them, the chemistry is off the charts and the story itself is perfection. I loved that the book focuses on the two of them, and trust me there's enough there to fill another book on them. Read this book! It's a keeper and deserves more than 5 stars!

I don't really know what to say about WILD FOR YOU by J.C Reed, because I really wasn't WILD for it.
I was expecting something good after reading the blurb-which is why I asked for the chance to read about a sexy cowboy/wrangler/bull rider, but all I got in Case was a rude, sometimes romantic, self indulgent rich boy who thought only of himself for a long, long time. The patience Erin had with him was incredible...I would have ditched the dude long before she did. I was fond of Erin as a character though, she was strong willed and tough as nails and I always appreciate that in a female lead.
Eventually things lightened up. The first half was rather like a game of ping pong-back and forth with the threats and the insults, but I waited out the banter and hoped for more of a story line later in the read. I got it towards the 65% mark and I was happy with what Reed did with the characters and I was super interested to see how they got there.
As a first time reader of Reed, I didn't know what to expect. I feel the story lacked some depth and substance but made up for it with the sexiness factor. However, I did like the chemistry our two MC's had. It was fiery and passionate-which made for hot sexual tension.
I'd say this was a super light, easy read with very little angst-so if this is something you're into, this book is for you!

I received an advanced review copy from the author for a fair and honest review.
Did not finish. Stopped at 59%.
I just couldn't take anymore of Cash. The sexual innuendos and Erin's lack of a backbone. So far nothing has happened except the same things just over and over! His avoidance, her being pissed, and them kissing.

A famous injured bull rider, Cash is not following the rules. He is not getting better because he is not following doctor's order. He doesn't do his physical therapy. All he is doing is mopping on his ranch. That is until his father hires a new therapist to work with him. Erin doesn't know what she is getting into with Cash.
Instant sparks fly between Cash and Erin from their first encounter There is instant attraction and they challenge each other personally and professionally. Erin wants to see Cash get better. She sees how much his family loves him and wants him better physically and emotionally. Erin will not give up, even when Cash wants to.
JC Reed always write a story I enjoy reading!

This is the second book I've read by the author and it was a quick and easy read. It caught my attention when I read the blurb and then again when I saw that yummy cover, and then yet again once I actually started reading.
Cash Boyd is an uber sexy, ladies man who is one of the top bull riders in the country, until a serious accident knocks him from the top of the leaders board and off the high horse he has himself on. Needing therapy to help him walk on his own again, Cash's family hires Erin to help him recover. What she doesn't know or expect is how Cash is about to make Erin's life a living hell and doesn't want her help....even though there is an instant chemistry and attraction between them.
Cash and Erin's story is one of extreme frustration. All Cash wants is to be able to walk on his own again and be back to the shape he was in before the accident and Erin wants to help him achieve that goal. However, being the stubborn and pride filled man that he is, Cash's goal is to make Erin quit and leave...even when he wants her to stay.
Wild For You is a sexy, frustrating, sort of forbidden romance between two people who are trying to move ahead in life. All Erin wants is to do her job and head back home. The last thing she expects is to be attracted to the hot and arrogant injured bull rider.
I enjoyed Cash and Erin's story although I wanted to beat some sense into Cash in the beginning for how badly he treated Erin. And I would have liked a bit more of a connection between the two. I felt like the sexual attraction was off the charts but I I needed more of an emotional connection as well. I still enjoyed the story and can't wait for the next book, No One Like You.

Wild for You is a breathtaking surrender to a love so intense and true that it will break down all of your defenses right before your disbelieving eyes. There is nothing easy about this book, but there is something incredibly wonderful that flows from it into your heart. It is filled with beautiful courage, pure determination, and unfaltering hope. If you are looking for a story to challenge you every step of the way and force you to finally understand what it is your heart truly wants, then this is the perfect treasure hunt for you to undertake.
Cash and Erin are truly wonderful opposites that create the perfect push and pull between their hearts. Erin is forced on Cash in the lowest point in his life, and she brings with her a breeze of fresh sanity and warm light. He can’t look away from her like a moth to the flame, and he will do everything he can to show her what she does to him both good and bad. However, he never expects her to crack his life and heart in two until he finds that he has nothing left to hide. Baring his soul brings him the healing and hope he never dared to have within reach.
The stunning characters found within these pages will astonish and delight your heart and mind in how much love and hope they rain down on this broken yet precious couple. Being the center of attention can bring embarrassment and loathing at having your issues highlighted all the time, but this big loving family will show these two that their intentions are from their pure hearts. I couldn’t get enough of this exquisite pair and waiting their lives and hearts connect and weave together while they fight it at every chance. I coudn’t date look away for fear of missing the extraordinary love that was just waiting to be set free.
J. C. Reed has proven over and over that she understands her reader’s love of stories that push and prod us into the ugly and hard parts of life only to emerge enlightened and strengthen after walking through the life-changing fire of her extra ordinary works of art. I have been incredibly blessed to be able to savor and cherish each precious word in this beautiful masterpiece! Now, I look forward to what this inspiring and amazing author creates next.

There r so many wrong things inside. First, unprofessional when u in sex with your patient n using that for the incentive. This is another kind of bully.
This not ok for me to shooting someone when they r not in their moment even U found it's very interesting, talking in your sleep, this is not my things n I didn't enjoy this kind of act.
the character wasn't built in good form, we seen that Cash is bully all the people around him, his family, the PTs n Erin too. We didn't understand Erin that much, only knew that she was guilty when her ex drunk drive n die n she thought she was the one who caused the drunk.
I remember the few books I read from the author in the very beginning, they were nice, years later, it's seems that not my cup of tea anymore, even I given the second, third chance to hope it will back to the route.

Cash can be blunt when he wants to get a point across, "...he sets down the fork, and his eyes focus on me with an intensity that seems to set every fiber of my being on high alert. “I want to eff you, Erin.” Cash always keeps it real, “like you want to rip off my clothes and ride me hard.” I liked this book, Cash was difficult, but Erin was feisty and held her ground.

•••••••••
REVIEW: 3.75 stars--WILD FOR YOU is the second installment in JC Reed’s sexy, romance series focusing on the Boyd Brothers-Kellan, Cash and Ryder. This is bull-rider Cash Boyd, and physical therapist Erin Stone’s story line. WILD FOR YOU can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty.
Told from dual first person points of view (Cash and Erin) WILD FOR YOU follows Cash Boyd as he struggles with the career ending accident that nearly took his life. As a professional bull-rider Cash was at the top of his game but months earlier a near fatal throw by a bull with a dangerous temper and reputation found our hero battling for his life. Fast forward to present day, and Cash Boyd comes face to face with the woman his father hired to shake some sense into his stubborn son. Enter physical therapist Erin Stone, and the woman with whom Cash would fall in love. What ensues is the tempestuous, back and forth relationship as Erin battles between her heart and her professional reputation when Cash refuses to take no for an answer.
Cash Boyd wants nothing to do with his latest physical therapist. Frustrated with the lack of progress, and his family’s attempts to ‘control’ his life, Cash is determined to make Erin’s life as miserable as his own. Erin’s time in Montana is limited to her success or failure as Cash’s therapist but leaving behind the bad memories in Chicago forces Erin to push ahead with a client who wants nothing to do with outside interference or his own ‘supposed recovery’.
The relationship between Erin and Cash is one of immediate attraction but an attraction that places Erin in a professional dilemma. Cash’s sexual innuendos and advances make our heroine uncomfortable but she is determines to prove that she is above his advances, if only for a little while. The $ex scenes are limited, intimate and intense.
We are introduced to Cash’s brothers Kellan and Ryder, and their long suffering father Sheriff Trent Boyd; Cash’s housekeeper Margaret, and his Aunt Shannon who gives our heroine some insight into the man that she loves.
WILD FOR YOU has moments of humor and fun; heartbreak and pain; romance and love. The premise is entertaining; the romance is slow to build; the characters are colorful and energetic. Cash is a stubborn, alpha male who slowly realizes that not everything in life is a battle til the end.

3.5 Stars-Had to Grow on Me
From the very first paragraph, I could tell Cash Boyd and I weren't going to see eye to eye, because I'm not a huge fan of total d-bags. Boy oh boy did J.C. Reed write him as one heck of one.
"Riding women and bulls is my specialty."
That is a line from Cash we are hit with at the 2% mark and I instantly hated him. Nothing like the guy who thinks he's god's gift to a woman's vagina. Barf. So we have poor, cocky Cash that is doing nothing but feeling sorry for himself while he's sidelined from riding. Well he is doing something, making live miserable for everybody around him as well.
Enter the sweet physical therapist Erin, who needs the job for the money and to get away from home for a while. She's also good at what she does, however isn't as in your face as Cash. Erin was warned to proceed with caution, because her new client wants nothing to do with her, or anybody for that matter.
For three quarters of the book we get a push and pull between Erin and Cash. He is a complete jerk and she keeps hanging around waiting for him to change. While I'm a huge fan of angst, this felt immature for the ages of these characters. That or I couldn't get over the fact that Cash was a giant man-baby.
The book is well written and although I pretty much hated Cash for most of it, he did something at the end that redeemed himself at least a little in my eyes. Wild for You reads as a standalone with a nice epilogue.

From the very first paragraph, I could tell Cash Boyd and I weren't going to see eye to eye, because I'm not a huge fan of total d-bags. Boy oh boy did J.C. Reed write him as one heck of one.
"Riding women and bulls is my specialty."
That is a line from Cash we are hit with at the 2% mark and I instantly hated him. Nothing like the guy who thinks he's god's gift to a woman's vagina. Barf. So we have poor, cocky Cash that is doing nothing but feeling sorry for himself while he's sidelined from riding. Well he is doing something, making live miserable for everybody around him as well.

I loved this!!! This was so much fun to read. Cash is a bull rider who after being seriously injured has hidden himself away in Montana and run off countless physical therapists. When his family has had enough his father hires Erin to help him recover. Erin is one of the best physical therapists around, she's sure she can handle the stubborn Cash and get him back on his feet. She has no idea what she's in for.
Cash was so hilariously stubborn at some points, even when I was frustrated with him I have to admit to giggling at his hiding and disappearing. He was the master at being a huge jerk and endearing all at once. Things that would drive me up the wall with other characters for some reason just made me love him all the more. Once this bull rider is back on his feet though, he brings all adorably arrogant romance to the table for Erin.
Erin was so determined to help Cash no matter what he pulled, and man did he try everything. She was willing to quit and before she knew it she was in deep with the sexy and stubborn Cash. Afraid to give into him fully, not only because of her job, but because of a secret she is hiding she tries hard to not completely fall for his advances. Soon she can't keep the walls up and when they come down these two are burning up the pages!

ARC kindly received in exchange for an honest review.
This book was a fast and easy read. There wasn't really any angst which was good, because sometimes I don't feel like I want to read a book with a whole lot of it.
Cash and Erin are pretty cool characters, even if Cash is really annoying to start with.
Things seem to move fairly slowly at the beginning of the book, giving us the chance to get to know them a little bit before we delve into seeing them as team and interacting together more and more.
Once they start to fall for each other, things move quite quickly. The book is fast paced in one way, but in other ways it isn't. It works quite well.
Cash has some pretty quirky family around him and I believe the next book is about one of his brothers, so I will definitely be interested in reading that when it comes out.
Wild for You, would recommend.

Cash is a sexy, ladies man who happens to be a famous bull rider that is on top of the world, until an accident knocks him off his high horse. Needing therapy, Cash’s family hires Erin to help him recover. What she doesn’t know is how Cash is about to make Erin’s life a living hell and desperately wants her to leave... even though sparks flew the minute Cash laid eyes on Erin.
Cash and Erin’s story was one of great frustration. Cash desperately wants to be back where he was before the accident and Erin wants to help him achieve that goal. However, being the stubborn man he is, Cash is all about making Erin leave her job...even when he wants her to stay.
Wild for You was a fun, sexy, sometimes frustrating and at the same time heartfelt story of two people who are just trying to move ahead in life. Erin just wants to do her job yet is completely attracted to the man who pushes every one of her buttons on a daily basis (and not in a good way at first).
I enjoyed Cash and Erin’s story of dealing with what life hands you, picking up the pieces and moving on stronger and better than ever! I look forward to the next book in the series, No One Like You!

Cash is an adrenaline junky never backing down and always going after what he wants. A bullrider with bullheaded streak a mile long.
Erin is a physical therapist hired to help Cash recover from his tango with a bull.
The attraction between Cash and Erin is obvious. They are drawn to each other yet Erin struggles with her past, her professionalism and her feelings, none of which are in agreement.
I really enjoyed reading this yet somehow I found myself wanting more. I was disappointed that I didn't learn more about Cash's business troubles. They were brought up in the story several times but there wasn't any conclusion, resolution or further insight into what was going on. To me it felt as though it needed to be further explained or uncovered rather than mentioning it and then letting it just hang as an open ended problem.

EEEEPPPP...J.C. Reed has a new book out!!! Wild For You and I am just sooo freaking Wild about it!!! This book was sooo good y'all!!
He was a star bull rider that had an awful injury.
She was hired to get him back on his feet.
He isn't having it.
She pushes.
He pushes back.
She thinks he is HAWT but due to being a physical therapist, this is crossing the line.
He doesn't care...he wants her anyway.
They come up with a mutual agreement.
But will this agreement work? Will feelings get in the way? Can she tame this bull rider? Will he go back to bull riding? Will she loose her job...or more...her Heart?

Cash Boyd is a panty melting, arrogant, stubborn bull rider who always gets what he wants when he wants it!.....that is until he meets Erin!
Erin is a professional but feisty physical therapist hired to help him ....she loves her job and she makes him work for what he wants! He hates that he's helpless but doesn't want or need Erin's help. With secrets, dual stubbornness and sizzling chemistry can they start to break each others walls down.?

I really enjoyed Wild For You. This was the first J.C. Reed book I've read but I'm sure it won't be the last!
Cash came across initially, to put it mildly, as an immature, moody, self centred git, but thankfully that wasn't who he really was - though it took some work on Erin's part to get to the heart of the guy! I could feel his annoyance with his situation and the frustration that was caused by his family's gesture to try and get him back on his feet again so even though I could have smacked him a time of two, a little slack was given as I think I'd have been the same had I been in his shoes!
Erin was lovely, hard working, dedicated and patient when her charge was giving her the run around, she was a very likable and believable character - though I have to say I think she carried a lot on her shoulders that she shouldn't have when it came to her 'secret'. She knew that she should definitely not be getting involved with her patient but the chemistry and attraction between the pair was off the wall and she fell for the pita bullrider!
This was a good read, packed with heat, banter and humour. I enjoyed the supporting characters and really wanted things to work out for Erin and Cash once he got over himself!

This is the first book I've read by Ms. Reed and I'll be back for more. Cash is a bull rider that suffered a catastrophic injury while on the bull. His doctors recommended physical therapy but he has run off all the physical therapists that his family procured for him, that is until Erin came into the picture. She is bound and determined to not let Cash run her off. He doesn't make it easy on her refusing her attempts at even a simple conversation. His overbearing, quirky family is just the icing on the cake, they stick their nose in his business constantly. Feelings develop on both sides and eventually Erin gives into Cash's advances. Will Erin ever get him back to bull riding again and does she even want to?

What a great quick read. I had missed reading J.C. work and this made up for it. Erin is on a mission to get stubborn headed bull rider Cash up and back on his feet, but Cash isn't having it or Erin, but he's drawn to her sassyness, her strong will can they come to an agreement on his physical therapy and love? loved it.

This was a fun read. The push pull of relationship is always fun. Cash is stubborn and doesn't want anyone's help but Erin is relentless. They have a crazy attraction to top it off. Great read

I enjoyed this book but if I'm perfectly honest I didn't love it.
I felt it had great potential and I loved the plot, I even really liked the characters. However, I felt it failed in giving me that emotional lick that makes me really fall in love with a book.
On top of this, I felt that the build-up was a tad too slow, only to speed up and skip over the elements that should have left your heart in your throat - the reveal of secrets. By creating this (pace/time) fragmentation, the book was done a disfavor, making the last third of the book feel rushed.

Cash Boyd is an arrogant ass. He’s selfish, rich, a womanizer, happens to be damn good at riding bulls, and refuses to lay by the rules. He won’t ask for help under any circumstances – especially not after his latest bull riding injury that requires therapy following several extensive surgeries. He’s sent every therapist packing from his home – even locked his family out of his house quite literally for meddling – so this heart-stopping beauty of a therapist won’t be any different. His family sent her, he doesn’t need her, so she has to go. He will get back to walking on his own – in his own time, on his own terms, with no help from anyone. Definitely not from Erin, who has had his right hand working over-time since she arrived in his house.
Erin Stone had a stellar reputation as a physical therapist. She loves her work and lives to be able to help others through her services. She knew Cash would be a hand full when she took the job and she’s worked with some tough nuts to crack, but this guy tests all of her limits and boundaries. Their magnetic attraction isn’t helping the situation. All she can focus on is his beautiful body – and that is when he isn’t sending her temper into meltdown mode with his refusal to get with the program. Never mind that she has been tempted since she first laid eyes on him, now she’s actually considering more. It’s a way to get him to co-operate with therapy: at least that is what tells herself. Never mind that the arrogant jackass tempts her beyond reason and that his desire for her could be part of the reason behind some of the jackassery. But only some.
Full disclosure – I couldn’t use my very favorite lines or dialogue highlights in the review, because it would have spoiled parts of the story. It sucks, but neither do I enjoy running stories for other readers. I very much enjoyed my time spent with Cash and Erin. The chemistry between the two was palpable. I enjoyed seeing each try to deny the attraction, explain it away, then try to get on with their days without confronting it. Good plan … NOT! And the sex … Good Grief! Hot and Steamy to be certain! I think part of the charm was when they both would come to realize that they cared on a larger level, but would rationalize it, without admitting that it could be more. That happened several times and each time they cared just a bit more, you know, even though they didn’t. 😊 The Boyd family and extended family is also fun to get to know and added an extra layer of depth to the story without taking anything away from the main characters. Erin stuck it out a bit longer than many would have, but with her passion to help others and her growing love for Cash, it is perfectly understandable why she would put up with more. After all, haven’t all at some point in our lives? Cash was a little more difficult to love. He comes off as a playboy initially, but grows on you after you see more of who the person is and not so much the brand that he puts out there.
Curious though that this book isn’t part of a series and is described as a stand-alone. It is, of course, but there are a couple of other books about the other Boyd brothers. Probably my only issue with the book is that the characters were so flipping indecisive. They’d decide on a way to handle the other and when the next scene popped up, they wouldn’t at that way at all. I guess twitterpation muddled their brains a bit. This made it difficult to understand a couple of times. However, I am fully aware that I read an ARC and it is entirely possible a few things may have changed. The views were interesting as it flipped back and forth between Cash and Erin and I think that may have been where I got hung up a couple of times. But I liked that we could see things from both of their views instead of the regular inferences. I did have a vision of a sexual situation in which Erin took the lead to accommodate for Cash’s injuries, but that didn’t happen.
All in all, this was a very satisfying read, which has made me curious about the stories of the other Boyd brothers – A world I hope to explore. I recommend this book and am happy to say that you do not have to read it in any particular order. But for those of you who prefer to, start with Kellan (Beautiful Distraction), then Cash, and soon you will be able to read about Ryder (No One Like You, Feb 2018). Cash may also be mentioned in Counting On You, another stand alone, but the book does not involve a Boyd brother. For those of you who enjoy a satisfying HEA with hot sex and quite a lot of dirty talk, you’ve got a winner here.

I know the moment she touches me, I’ll go wild for her. How could I not? She’s beautiful, sexy, and she lives with me.
Famous bull rider, Cash Boyd, is left feeling bitter and lost after suffering a serious injury during his last ride. He’s determined to ride again but is too busy feeling sorry for himself to take his physical therapy seriously. Tired of seeing a string of therapists come and go, unable to deal with Cash’s attitude, his father seeks out one of the best therapists around and brings her in as a last ditch effort to help his son. The first time he lays eyes on Erin Stone, he’s not at all interested in what she has to offer him professionally, the only thing he’s interested in is getting her in his bed. Erin just wants to do her job but she finds it hard to fight her attraction toward Cash and her resolve to resist his advances quickly begins to dissolve. What starts off strictly as a job for Erin may end up turning into more than she ever bargained for when she showed up at Cash’s door.
This is a standalone novel but I think I mixed myself up by only having read Counting on You and not Beautiful Distraction (my co-blogger read that one but I never did) because we briefly saw Cash in Counting on You but the only thing we really knew about him was that he was the owner of a successful chain of night clubs. Which was what I was expecting to get going into this book. I suppose if I had read Beautiful Distraction I would have known that he was also a bull rider. The two things seem so wildly different that it really threw me when I started this book and see him riding a bull. I actually had to go back to Counting on You and search his name to make sure it was the same character. I had this perception of who Cash was based on that book and it was really hard for me to see him as a bull rider as I read this book. If I had read Beautiful Distraction or if I hadn’t read either book, then I think I wouldn’t have had such an issue with having it make sense in my head. But that’s on me, it’s nothing the author did! I guess I just wasn’t expecting that and it caught me off guard (I supposed I could have read the blurb before I started, which might have helped me too…).
Once I accepted Cash’s professions, I just had to roll with it. But I will say, I did have a hard time connecting with him. He was a huge jerk most of the time and while some of it was amusing, a lot of it just came across as if he were a bratty teenager. I give Erin credit because she did a good job of not putting up with his crap, at least for the most part. There was a lot of back and forth between them and sometimes it made my head spin, they hated each other, they liked each other, they wanted each other, they hated each other again, and on and on. I spent most of the story annoyed with Cash and waiting for him to make another stupid decision just because he was too stubborn to accept the reality of his situation. Even though things happened very fast, I was happy with how it ended up. Cash actually made me like him a little with something he does toward the end of the book.
I may have had a little bit of a hard time with this one, but I do think that plenty of people will enjoy this enemies-to-lovers story with a super stubborn hero and a persistent heroine.

He was a huge jerk most of the time and while some of it was amusing, a lot of it just came across as if he were a bratty teenager. I give Erin credit because she did a good job of not putting up with his crap, at least for the most part. There was a lot of back and forth between them and sometimes it made my head spin, they hated each other, they liked each other, they wanted each other, they hated each other again, and on and on. I spent most of the story annoyed with Cash and waiting for him to make another stupid decision just because he was too stubborn to accept the reality of his situation. Even though things happened very fast, I was happy with how it ended up. Cash actually made me like him a little with something he does toward the end of the book.
I may have had a little bit of a hard time with this one, but I do think that plenty of people will enjoy this enemies-to-lovers story with a super stubborn hero and a persistent heroine.

An emotion filled captivating story…
His reckless daredevil ways got Cash Boyd into his current predicament, his body damaged, not healing on its own fast enough for his liking and he won’t accept therapeutic assistance. Nothing stopped him from bull riding, not even a prior rodeo accident. His lucrative edgy nightclubs weren’t enough of a high, the adrenaline rush of controlling the bull was what he craved and then he met the most ornery of bulls. When his father hires a professional to help him he does everything he can to chase her away, yet he doesn’t really want her to go, she’s beautiful, sexy and her dedication and spunk intrigue him.
Needing a change of scenery from Chicago physical therapist Erin Stone took a job in Montana helping a sheriff’s son, an injured bull rider. Nothing prepared her for the arrogance in the gorgeous, sexy man she was to meet or the level of animosity he would display at the thought of having someone help him even having dealt with difficult patients before. To make matters worse Erin is physically attracted to the man in a way she’s never been before which complicates her job by threatening her professional detachment and reputation. This stubborn man wants to do things on his own whether it’s his best interests or not. The incessant games he plays to avoid Erin try her patience and cause no end of frustration but she’s determined to help him. Will she be able to keep her heart whole while doing so?
It’s not surprising that an alpha male who is highly independent would have a hard time letting go of his control when injured, accepting let alone admitting that he needs assistance is a foreign concept albeit a necessary one. It just takes the right person to make him see reason if one can hold their course as did Erin. I loved the push and pull between these two, their provocative chemistry kept them circling each other and the amusing ways Cash hid made the feisty Erin try harder to keep his attention focused on healing. They’re both quite stubborn and it was a matter of who would give in first, an arrangement is finally acceded to that worked in more ways than either expected.
This story is told in dual points of view with humorous dialogue interspersed between the palpable sexual tension. Though they both kept secrets there was no serious relationship angst which I found refreshing. Erin did have reason to want to stay aloof to relationships which Cash had to overcome. The supporting cast of characters were interesting, many who loved to meddle. This read was enjoyable, an emotion filled captivating story with much frustration and humorous antics. This reader loved this.

Do you believe in fate? About things happening for a reason that can't be explained in any other logical way?
Cash is not only stunningly gorgeous, he is a self-made millionaire, perhaps even billionaire - he runs a network of clubs which have been very successful. But his true passion for most of his life has always been bull riding. Except, ironically, this is the one thing that has potentially ruined his life. The last time he rode a bull he got thrown off and attacked by the bull with such force that he was left not being able to walk unaided. He was damn luck he wasn't killed. He was so angry when his 'interfering' father hired him a therapist to help him learn to walk again unaided and without pain. The help came in the from of the breathtakingly beautiful Erin. From the moment he laid eyes on her, Cash was mesmerised. He wanted her and just had to have her. He refused to let her help him as he was afraid that she'd look at him with pity and was even more afraid that she wouldn't want him because of his injuries. So he hid from her on a daily basis to avoid their therapy sessions, much to Erin's complete annoyance - he was such a jerk! Little did he know the effect he was having on Erin. She was so attracted to him she could barely breathe and if she admitted to herself she would know that she wanted him too. But it's forbidden love, right? They can't have a relationship because of their professional/patient relationship, right? But what will happen if they can't tear themselves away?
This story has more than it's fair share of twists and turns and so much happens that is completely unexpected. Both Erin and Cash have deep dark secrets that they are ashamed of - what will happen if these ever came out? What would the consequences be? They are both so afraid they really don't know which way to turn, and so to try to hide from each other and disguise their feelings seems like the only way. But will this work?
Written in such a beautiful way, this story is captivating; leaving no stone unturned, it definitely leaves nothing to the imagination. I have rated this 5 stars - it didn't disappoint me at all. It brought out a whole host of feelings in me as a reader and I am so grateful for having the opportunity of reviewing it. If you like romance, coupled with suspense and a fantastic story-line that will have you hooked from the outset, I would certainly recommend that you read Wild For You.
