Pretty Broken #4
Pretty Wild Thing
A man and a boy poised on the brink of self-destruction. One woman determined to save them both.
Tucker Spaulding has everything a man could want; an endless bank account, a brilliant future, and great friends. Everything but the love of the woman he adored. To distract himself from the pain of heartbreak, he likes to flirt with death, seeking the ultimate thrill while risking his life in the process.
Fallon Youngblood has lost everything; first her parents then her freedom. She’s given up her future for her paraplegic younger brother Hank. He requires full-time care, but she’s determined to give him the best life possible, even if it means sacrificing her own.
When Tucker explodes into the lives of Fallon and Hank, he brings with him the promise of something more, something better for them both. Tucker threatens her control and the safe world she’s built around Hank. She doesn’t want his help, but how can she turn him away? Especially when his kisses open up a door she’d thought long closed.
Tucker doesn’t want to care about Fallon or her brother. How can he turn away when he has the power to help better their situation? He wants to help Hank, but he didn’t count on the strong attraction he feels for Fallon. For them to be together, he’ll have to overcome her fears and face the truth about his relationship with his ex-girlfriend.
Sometimes love is the greatest risk of them all.
This is a standalone novel from the Pretty Broken Series and has a HFN ending. Although it can be read alone, you will find it more enjoyable when read in sequence with the other Pretty Broken books. This book contains adult language, adult situations, and lots of hot sex.

Dibs on Tucker...absolutely loved this book and these 2, this book had all the feels for me.
Tucker and Fallon meet on the elevator when she is on her way to an interview. Ironically the interview was with him for his company. Everyday they are on the same train together, that is where Tucker had first seen Fallon. The next time they are on the train together he sits next to her, when she gets off the train, she drops her wallet and Tucker sees it and picks it up to give to her. He ends up going to her house to give it back to her.....and this is where the story really picks up.
Fallon is only 23 taking care of her 17 yr old brother that was in a tragic accident when he was younger causing him to lose all feeling from his shoulders down and losing his ability to speak....this whole scenario broke my heart. She is doing this alone because right before his accident their parents were killed by a drunk driver. Tucker sees this and talks to the boy, he then proceeds to come over and hang out with them to watch sports or take care of the lawn for them....even though he is filthy rich and doesn't even take care of his own lawn....there's your sign...DIBS. Tucker and his friends end up doing so many more wonderful things for her brother, which really helps her out in general and gives her brother some hope when he had really stopped caring.
These 2 have a sweet "courting" if you will. Each trying to get over bad break ups, Tucker more recently with Sydney (she was just plain dumb to let him go...but her loss is Fallon's gain). These is a scene in the book where Sydney tries to talk Tucker into giving her lying but another chance....but my man shuts her down *sigh*. At one point he tells Fallon "You make me believe in God and fairytales and happily-ever-after. Maybe even unicorns."....yup, this ones all mine ladies.
I just loved, loved this book, these 2 are relationship goals all the way.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5🌶️🌶️🌶️ only a few sex scenes compared to previous books.
Loved this couple do much. Not too much drama 🎭 Wasn’t so much a workplace romance trope as the rest of the series but it did start off like that. Very few red flags 🚩 If any. Fallon is such a strong woman who has been dealt a hard life. I liked how the author included scenes where she was frustrated and angry and hurt, especially in her job. Proud of her for standing up for herself and for her worth, and not letting her boss/supervisor walk all over her like she kind of had been. Although the author did play into her insecurities, as expected, they didn’t dwell on it so long, like they typically would, which was nice. They also wasn’t a drag out on trust issues, while important, it can get tiresome. It did seem really soon after he kind of broke up and got heartbroken over Sydney to start a new relationship. I think he said three months which seems unrealistic. There wasn’t so much of breach of trust, and a topic of whether they can trust each other or not like it was in the previous books. It seemed to just brush over her insecurities almost like sure you have them, but it doesn’t matter which kind of unsettled me.
There was a show of healthy ways to cope with stress and uncomfortable feelings as well as unhealthy ways of coping. Mainly of avoiding.
I wish we got more of their happy ending than of just the night of the charity foundation gala. They just became a couple and we don’t get to see them grow and meld together in a relationship. Also, would’ve liked to see or hear from Hank’s opinion on them as a couple, & of his sister dating.
The author seemed to hint of something bad/troubling going on between Sam and Dakota. Dakota seemed to be depressed, and that there was trouble in their relationship. Nothing else or more was mentioned or revealed. Hinting of another book, possibly??

Good story! I would have liked to see more character development in regards to Hank's character. I think he has a lot to offer. He is a big part of Falcon's life and I think he was brushed aside at times.
Overall nice story...Falcon and Tucker I think are quite the more complex of the characters in the series so I thought their story was rushed in some aspects but I still loved their story!

Can it be true
Such an amazing love story. A package of 2, a sister and her paralyzed brother. She never expected to have a life outside caring for her brother. Tucker trying to get over a crushed heart. Also found love in those 2. Must read, beautiful

I really like how different each book it. Tucker is so good with Hank. He is in a position to help them and I am glad he isn't treating them like a charity case. He is getting to know and falling in love. It ended too suddenly.

A beautifully emotional story line, touching a subject thats not talked about or included in novels (Hanks disabilities). All the characters are well formed. Hank is mute, but what he silently says, is very powerful, and strong. I loved this read.
July 4, 2016
the guy really knows how to get to her heart…by going through her brother. Although i admire the generosity on the girl’s part on how much she cares for her brother, it all seems very 1 dimensional. If only the author gives a little more substance to Hank (by developing his character a bit more) instead of making him a charity case. Overall, it’s a pretty good book for a typical romance novel. 4 stars.
