The Maverick Billionaires #5
Wild in Love
Daniel Spencer is proud of the billion-dollar business he's built, but there are few things he enjoys more than creating something with his bare hands. Lake Tahoe has everything he's looking for--the lakefront cabin he's building for family and friends to enjoy, crystal clear water and lush green mountains. Everything except the perfect woman to share it with. Until Tasha Summerfield literally falls into his arms.
After learning that her family has lied to her for pretty much her entire life, Tasha flees San Francisco for the mountains. As she tries to bury her heartache by hammering her dilapidated cabin back together, the last thing she expects is to fall for a sexy billionaire. But when a storm blows in and she desperately needs help, there is Daniel, waiting with open arms.
Tasha believes Daniel deserves a woman from a perfect, loving, tight-knit family like his. Yet how can she possibly resist a man this sweet and generous...who looks positively sinful in his tool belt? With every delicious taste of him, Tasha finds it harder to quell the hopes and dreams she thought were crushed forever. But when it turns out that Daniel's family isn't picture perfect after all, will the truth set them both free? Or will it destroy any chance they ever had?

Daniel is exactly the kind of rugged, sexy, brilliant, loving hero that I love most. Of course that meant Jennifer and I had to find the perfect woman for him. We can't wait for you to meet Tasha, and to fall as deep in love with Daniel as she does in the book. Of course, you will also get to reconnect with everyone from the previous four Maverick Billionaires books. And don't worry, there will be more Mavericks after this one! After all, Gideon and Lyssa need their happily-ever-afters too.
I hope you absolutely adore Wild In Love -- and please keep an eye out for more news from me in the very near future about Harry Sullivan's book. If you've been waiting for the fourth New York Sullivan book, then I'm going to have some good news for you...
Happy reading!

Although I have fallen in love with all of the Mavericks, Wild in Love, or more specifically Daniel, is probably my fave in this series. He just is and I love him. Daniel wants what all of the other Mavericks have finally found, and what his parents have, Love. But he has some pretty unrealistic thoughts about love, so it just hasn't happened yet. Until one day when he is at his beautiful Lake Tahoe "cabin" and he hears a scream that sends him running to his nearest neighbor who literally falls into his arms. From that instant, that first touch, Tasha became his. His to protect, his to help, his to love. She is hiding something and he knows it but he can't walk away now that he has found her. She finally confides in him and the best thing is that he and all the other Mavericks are completely accepting of her. She didn't realize how much she needed that. Daniel is there for her and Tasha is there for him in ways no one has ever been for either of them and that is a beautiful thing. I enjoyed the storyline and they were just so sweet together. They were literally "wild" for each other, it was hot! They fall in love fast but you can see why and it doesn't seem out of place at all. They are each others strength and he helps her through a difficult time with her family and she helps him with his mom and that just solidifies their quickly built bond. Great story! Can't wait for the next one that is set up for us at the end!

Wild in Love was the fifth book in the Maverick Billionaires series by authors Bella Andre and Jennifer Skully.
Daniel Spencer was the fifth maverick and the one biological son of the mavericks foster parents. As with the others, he dug himself out of the neighborhood through his entrepreneurial spirit. He now owned Top Notch DIY stores across the world and was well known through his instructional videos. He was the kind and positive maverick but he never had long term relationships because he never found his one true love. He wanted what his parents had and nothing else would do.
Natasha “Tasha” Summerfield was beautiful, smart, carefree and the owner of a successful website development company. The story opened with heartbreaking news that rocked her existence to her core. She ran from the world so she could reevaluate and determine what the future would now hold.
Andre and Skully wove a story of personal reflection, rebuilding faith in humanity, learning to trust again, healing and forgiveness. In addition, they depicted love blossoming. Through their writing I was able to feel the roller coaster of emotions from pain and despair to joy and true love.
True to the series, I loved the camaraderie and loyalty that we’ve come to expect and love between the five foster brothers. It brought depth, dimension and enjoyment to the storyline. And of course, the pups stole the show. Who wouldn’t love the puppies?
In the end, it was sweet with little drama. It wasn’t my favorite in the series, but it was well written and well developed. I rated it a 3.5, which rounded up to a 4 on this review site.
The epilogue brought closure but it also focused on the next book in the series for Gideon, Ari’s Long lost brother from book three, Irresistible in Love. And I vote for a book for Drew. He’d make the perfect maverick!

WILD IN LOVE is book five in the Maverick Billionaire series. This is Daniel’s book and he’s the last one of the bunch who hasn’t found his happily ever after. I understand Daniel’s need to feel loved so I was curious to see who Andre and Skully would pair him up with.
Tasha turned out to be a fun gal. Although her past holds quite a lot of drama, none of it is her fault. So she escapes to the mountains for some reprieve and this is where she meets Daniel. I liked their romance. I thought that they were a really cute pair but for some reason, this book lacked that connection for me. The characters were nice and friendly, but I just didn’t fall deep in love with them. I wasn’t the biggest fan of Tasha’s dilemma so I guess maybe that influenced how I felt about her. But like I said, what happened to her was someone else’s fault entirely. I guess I was expecting more from this couple because I was looking forward to it.
WILD IN LOVE is a very quick read. I read it in one sitting and that’s one of my favorite things about this series. It’s fun and upbeat, making it a treat to read.

Bella Andre & Jennifer Skully did it again with Wild In Love. They bring romance to the next level with the story of Daniel and Tasha. Honestly, out of all of the Maverick Billionaire's, Daniel and Tasha's story is my favorite. It was sweet and sexy … it gave us a side of Daniel that we haven't seen and a woman who wants to be loved but doesn't believe that she deserves it. Together they fight the demons that are chasing them and face life head-on.
Daniel was wonderful throughout this story. He was kind, honest, big hearted and helpful. He did not expect the perfect woman to fall into his arms. He knows that she is hiding something, that something horrendous happened in her life that has her running scared. His mission is to be there for her, to listen to her and have the patience to wait her out … when she is ready to tell him what happened, he'll be there waiting with open arms, an open heart and all the love she could handle. He also knows that there is something up with his mother that could, possibly change his life. He needs, for his own peace of mind to find out and just be there for her as well.
Tasha had the ultimate betrayal. When you aren't sure you even know your own family, how can you trust your instincts with total strangers or friends. She can and will stand on her own two feet without any help from anyone. Until Daniel Spencer runs into her life and she finds herself wanting to tell him the truth, wanting to go into his open arms, wanting to love him like he deserves. She knows that he will despise her once he knows the truth. But, she gets the surprise of her life when all he does is try to convince her that it's not her fault and she needs to give people a chance. She can't help but fall in love with this wonderful man and trust him.
As secrets come out, friends gather round and rally in support of Tasha. The Mavericks can't be more helpful and open to her. And, as she learns all about the lives of these wonderful men, her opinion of herself starts to change and she thinks that maybe, just maybe, she does deserve to be loved and that she deserves to love Daniel.
Bella Andre & Jennifer Skully really brought this story to life. I can't tell you how much I admired Daniel and the man that he was. He truly was the star of this story. It amazes me how flawless this series it. You honestly can't tell who wrote what. They know how to build the story, build the characters and make everything flow off of the pages. Yes, amazing.

I absolutely adored Daniel’s and Tasha’s story in WILD IN LOVE, Book 5 of the Maverick Billionaires series by Bella Andre and Jennifer Skully. This book is an easy binge read… the only reason it took me two nights to finish is that I had to get up for work the next morning!
Daniel is restless and ready for his own forever after watching his four brothers find their happiness. Tasha has secrets in her past and believes she deserves her exile. Both characters are well-defined and their actions make perfect sense (even when they frustrate me). Watching them work through their difficulties and come together was truly delightful.
Daniel has appeared in all of the Maverick Billionaires titles, but WILD IN LOVE can stand alone as your introduction to the series. Of course, you’ll immediately go back and read the first four titles.
One of the best qualities about the Maverick series is that these billionaires aren’t pure fantasy. Yes, their lifestyle is more lavish than any of us can imagine (houses, cars, jets), but both authors, Andre and Skully, don’t write them as caricatures. They are down-to-earth men who happen to have a ton of money!
If you haven’t read any of these books, don’t wait any longer. Jump into WILD IN LOVE today.

Wild in Love (The Maverick Billionaires Book 5)
is another page turner by Bella Andre and Jennifer Skully!
From the very first page, Daniels’s story is enthralling. It was great to finally see the gorgeous Daniel achieve his own unique HEA with Tasha.
In this book Daniel is building a lakefront cabin at Lake Tahoe. He comes across Tasha who is working on her own run down cabin nearby, and rescues her when she nearly falls off the roof. Tasha is trying to escape from her life in San Francisco and her families criminal activities which she was until recently unaware of. In the beautiful surrounds of Lake Tahoe Daniel and Tasha find a hope for the future. Can this new beginning be enough to set themselves free, from the secrets of their past?
This book is a standalone, however it can be enjoyed even more after reading about the other Maverick Billionaires. From the very first book, each of the Maverick Billionaire’s story kept getting better and better, and Daniel’s story was well worth the wait!

This book started off differently than I was expecting it to. Daniel Spencer, I’ve been waiting for this book, the elusive maverick in my opinion, he’s funny, he’s sexy and he’s so damn brooding too! He’s waiting for the happy ending that his fellow mavericks have. He gets it but not without a struggle along the way.
Tasha needs to escape so she finds a cabin and decides to watch videos to help her do it up. She gets a lot done but she manages to get herself in a bit of a problem and Daniel who owns the cabin down the hill is there to save her. She’s very closed off which to be fair makes sense after what her family did to her. I do love how they slowly get to know each other. Tasha does not make it easy.
Daniel is immediately enamoured by her and when he finds out that she watches his ‘how to’ videos, he is amused. When they rescue the puppies, my heart went, and my ovaries went boom. The way she slowly accepts that he’s not going anywhere was sexy as anything. I’m so glad I got a chance to read this story, and for all Bella/Jennifer fans, you’re going to love it!

Can Daniel get any more dreamy? The last of the Billionaire Mavericks has finally found the love of his life and she couldn’t be more perfect for him. Bonding over roofing, cabinets, back splashes and flooring, Daniel and Tasha’s story did not get off to a good start but eventually, his kindness, generosity, openness, loving heart, and sexy tool belt, won Tasha over. What I love the most about this story is the almost simpleness of it. No angsty drama, no stubborn or stupid moves. It’s like an old fashioned fairytale. This was a sweet, simple, lovely story that suited the Daniel we’ve come to know. What a great way to conclude the original Mavericks series and looking forward to the next set! Congrats Bella and Jennifer! Truly loved it!

Wild in Love is book 5 in the Maverick Billionaire's series & is Daniel & Tasha's story. Daniel has built a large profitable business based on home improvement & do it yourself videos. He really enjoys his time remodeling & escapes to the cabin he's building himself whenever he can. On this trip, he noticed someone working on the ramshackle shack up the hill. The noise felt like an intrusion on his privacy. He just didn't realize how large of an intrusion it would end up being.
Tasha fled the city after finding out her dad & brother had lied to her all of her life. Not only that, her boyfriend was in on it all & wasn't the man she thought he was. The only good to come out of all the pain, hurt, anger & isolation was the satisfaction of all the DIY projects she'd completed on her cabin. You can learn anything from YouTube videos except what to do when you are hanging by your fingertips from a rusted out gutter on an isolated cabin.
Bella Andre & Jennifer Skully have done it again! Everyone of these books is written so seamlessly that you can't tell when the writers switch or who is writing at any given point. The characters are well developed & realistic. As a reader, I could feel the pain, hurt, grief & betrayal roll off Tasha's character. Tasha & Daniel were brought together by their love of home improvement but as the story progressed, there were other similarities between them. Their connection was immediate & intense. It was good to have an update on the other couples lives too. Another great story in an exceptional series!

This book could be cut by half if we didn't have to read how the main character continually whined about her lack of knowledge of the family deception and conn job. Then there was so much sex going on, it became quite boring. Usually like Belle Andre, but this one was too much nonsense.

A happy ending to a beautiful series.
I really really loved all the Mavericks but Daniel's story was not as exciting as I thought it to be . A quick read though.
I loved the fierceness of Tasha , her kindness made her one of a kind💞
Whereas Daniel too is soft hearted who is ready to help anyone in need.
They are perfect for each other.
The surprising event is their pasts which I won't say anything about 😉

Love conquers all in this stunning love story written by the dynamic duo of Bella Andre and Jennifer Skully. I've adored all of the Maverick Billionaire books but I think this one is my favorite. Daniel and Tasha meet under unlikely circumstances when he saves her from falling off her roof and the adventure starts from there. Tasha's burdens are heavy but Daniel helps her realize that she doesn't need to bear them alone. And Tasha helps Daniel to see that things don't always need to be perfect to be right. Daniel is a majorly swoon-worthy character and readers will fall in love with him very quickly. Daniel and Tasha get the happy ending both so richly deserve and then the authors set the stage for the next book in the series. I love everything about the Maverick series and my greedy hands cannot wait to get my hands on it! 5 stars

Well written but this one just didn't hold my interest. I felt like Tasha was a little overly dramatic with everything. Also the love story was super rushed and I wasn't really feeling it. Overall it was very very sappy, which is how the Sullivan series has gotten, which is why I stopped reading that after 17 books (though quite of few of them I really enjoyed and still re-read). Unfortunately since this type of super sappy, no thrill storyline has been a reoccurrence of late, this is going to be the last Bella Andre novel for me but I wish the author nothing but the best :)

This was one of the best stories of faith in family and love I have ever read. Tasha and Daniel find each other and teach each other how to trust and have faith in people and love. Da I’ll has faith that is upset and Tasha loses her faith in love. Together in finding each other they help each other discover what true faith ad love really is. A truly beautiful story.

I just finished Wild in Love (Book 5 of the Maverick Billionaires series), and overall I found it a definite improvement over the first book I read in the series, which was painfully dull. This one at least had more story to it, with some family dynamics and emotional beats woven in alongside the romance. While there were still plenty of bedroom scenes, thankfully it wasn’t quite as nonstop as Book 1.
Daniel’s character was likable. Although he was obviously wealthy, it wasn’t flaunted or shoved in your face the way it was with the hero from Book 1. He had his life together and no real internal struggles of his own—his only conflict came from learning a small family secret that made him question whether his parents’ marriage was as perfect as he had always believed. That wasn’t much of a personal battle, so while Daniel came across as a genuinely nice guy, he was ultimately a bit bland.
Tasha’s side of the story carried most of the weight here. She wrestled with feelings of betrayal from her dad and brother after realizing the truth about their family con, even though she hadn’t known what was going on. Watching her try to forgive herself for things she didn’t actually do—and work through that complicated family dynamic—gave the book some substance beyond the romance. That said, I tend to get irritated with characters who shoulder blame for things they had absolutely no control over, and Tasha definitely wallowed in some guilt.
Overall, Wild in Love was a step up from the first Maverick Billionaires book I read, but it’s still not something I’d call unforgettable. The romance was fine, the family drama added a bit of depth, but it didn’t leave me wanting to pick up another. I think I’m done with this series.
Daniel’s character was likable. Although he was obviously wealthy, it wasn’t flaunted or shoved in your face the way it was with the hero from Book 1. He had his life together and no real internal struggles of his own—his only conflict came from learning a small family secret that made him question whether his parents’ marriage was as perfect as he had always believed. That wasn’t much of a personal battle, so while Daniel came across as a genuinely nice guy, he was ultimately a bit bland.
Tasha’s side of the story carried most of the weight here. She wrestled with feelings of betrayal from her dad and brother after realizing the truth about their family con, even though she hadn’t known what was going on. Watching her try to forgive herself for things she didn’t actually do—and work through that complicated family dynamic—gave the book some substance beyond the romance.

Daniel Spencer is the most sweet Maverick. Daniel like his mother is affectionate with a heart the size of the world, his best friends became brothers, after being adopted by his parents, Susan and Bob. The five became The Maverick, but although billionaires tehy didn't lose sight of their origins and remain the same boys/ men of when they not have much, just the love of the Spencers.
When Daniel goes to Tahoe to enjoy a week doing what he loves, working on building his cabin (mansion) on the lake, he finds, saves, from a fall from the roof, Tasha, a beautiful woman full of surprises and secrets.
Tasha is secluded in the mountains, alone, after a huge disappointment with her father, brother and fiance. She has fled to Tahoe and is renovating herself for three months, a crumbling cottage, using only her intelligence, equipment and tools, and with the help of online how-to videos. Tasha never imagined being saved by anyone but anyone who is teaching her by videos how to reform her hut.
A beautiful and touching story of love, of overcoming thanks to the love, patience and affection of a man with a huge heart and who did not believe that he would find a woman so perfect for him, that even with his weaknesses he is strong, intelligent and with a heart as big as his.
I need the next Maverick book, I need re read all the Maverick books.

Wild in love is the 5th book about a group of guys who were foster brothers to each other when they were young. They have now become billionaires, each by a skill they honed while kids. They call themselves Mavericks, and each book has featured one of the Mavericks finding his HEA. This book is about Daniel, who was the biological son of this group raised by Daniel’s parents. Tasha is his HEA, and he pursues her throughout the story. She came from a family of con artists, and has been feeling guilty and unworthy, ever since she realized what her father and brother were doing. Daniel has made his money in building materials, stores, and how to videos. Tasha learns to rebuild her cabin by watching those videos. This was an easy read, a good story about family and faith in that family. I have enjoyed each of these stories, and this one seemed like a good ending to the Maverick men......however, it looks like there may be more!

⭐ 3.5 stars!!
This was my first book by the authors and Wild in Love was an enjoyable read which can be read in one sitting. It's relatively low to little angst, no Cliffhangers and a HEA.
In my opinion I found the book to be light and a bit fluffy for my taste which lowered my rating of the book because I personally have a low tolerance for a whole lot of mushiness in books.... That's just how I feel and someone else might have a different opinion 😅
But the writing style was good and it was a good book to read to pass time on a lazy afternoon 🍃
This book can be read as a standalone but I recommend reading the books in order to better understand the dynamic of the Maverick Brothers (which I didn't do)

This is another wonderful Maverick book. Tasha Summerfield was great with websites and programs. She built a website for her father and brother selling the community her father, brother, and her fiancé were trying to sell. Then one day her father called her into the office with the others and told her to get out of town. The company was being investigated for fraud. Tasha was stunned as she had no idea. And the fiancé was such a jerk, she couldn’t believe she ever thought she loved him. Tasha didn’t run, but talked to the feds about what she knew. They didn’t do anything to her as she truly knew nothing that was happening. She bought a run down cabin in the mountains and was fixing it up for three months. She felt like so much was her fault, and she should not have any happiness because of all the money her family stole from people. One day she fell on the roof and screamed. Daniel Spencer who was a billionaire and working on his “cabin” above her, heard her screams and ran to see what was wrong. Tasha was hanging from the roof and Daniel caught her. Daniel owned a conglomerate of home improvement stores and UTube DIY videos to help people build themselves. He found out she had been watching his videos and had done some good work on her cabin. He offered to help her in any way, but she refused as she didn’t feel she deserved any help after what her family did. Circumstances bring the two together and Daniel works on getting Tasha to trust him.
I just love the Mavericks, and when they all five came together at Daniel’s place in the mountain it was hunk overload! They are all a bunch of good guys, and were able to talk Tasha in to letting them help. Daniel is such a wonderful man who has a healthy outlook on life and love, largely due to his parents. I loved Daniel and Tasha together and that they were able to help each other in some ways. I did feel bad for Tasha with the way her father brought her brother and her into his deceitful ways. This is such a good book. I strongly encourage you to read the book. I voluntarily read an Advanced Reader’s Copy of the book.

Wild In Love is about forgiveness and having the courage to not let your past dictate your future. I loved going on this journey with these characters, watching them change as they became secure in each other's affections. However I found it a bit repetitious especially with the hangups that they each had, I felt like that took up too much of the book. Despite that I found it enjoyable and very easy to read, I read it in one sitting. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

Daniel is a Billionaire loving to build homes and do home improvements. Started his own chain of stores and home improvement videos. He was also the last of the Mavericks to find love. He was feeling a little lost and went to Lake Tahoe to his Lake don’t property to do some work with his hands.
Tasha was a web designer, but found herself in trouble that wasn’t of her own making. She was working with her father and brother who was using her web designs to con people into investing in a resort that didn’t exist. So she went to Lake Tahoe brought a run down cabin and work on it herself, with a little help from home improvement videos. While attempting to repair her leaky roof with tarp, she was slipping off when save by the a beautiful Billionaire. Not very trusting of men or anyone actually. But Daniel finally wore her down.
Lol, that is the best I can do without ruining the story for the next person. If you have enjoyed he Mavericks, you will enjoy this one as well.

The beauty of The Maverick Billionaires series is that it not only entertains, but it inspires. The collaboration of Andre and Skully packs powerful messages of love and courage in tempting stories of alpha males and determined females. Wild in Love is Daniel's chance at a happy ending. Daniel is looking for the perfect girl. What he finds is a wounded soul that speaks to his heart, but is determined to keep her's closed off. Tasha had the perfect life, only to find it wasn't as perfect as she believed. Now a loner with a crack in her heart and the weight of the world on her shoulders, she sets about atoning for the sins of others, as she creates a new life for herself. Will the man who dreams of perfection, find his dream girl in the woman that's forgotten how to dream? In life there is no perfection. Happiness lies in being true to yourself. Powerful tale of redemption and second chances.

I adored Daniel & Tasha's story.
It's sexy, funny, & touching.
Daniel is enjoying the view at his Tahoe getaway, he's building, for he & his family to enjoy. Now, he just needs a break,
& spend the time working on his home.
Tasha wonders if she's ready to
take the next step in her relationship.
That was, till her eye's were opened to the truth. Tasha was on the run, till finding a little shack, in Lake Tahoe. She isolates herself from everyone. Taking a dip in the lake, Daniel hears a women screaming. He runs up the mountain, in time to save Tasha from falling. Holding her, he has never had such an intense attraction to a woman. Daniel finally felt alive. Because of the guilt Tasha lives with, she just wants to hide from her handsome hero.
This story really pulled all my heartstrings. This is truly a beautiful story and makes you believe there really is true love out there.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR EVERYONE!!!

Absolutely loved this book. Daniel and Tasha’s chemistry was off the charts. Tasha tried to fight the love that was pulling her towards Daniel. She struggled with trusting people. Daniel and his buddies didn’t let Tasha turn them down. They were persistent. Tasha gave in to their help as well as her feelings for Daniel
Daniel is a loving man, who was looking for his soulmate. Along comes Tasha needless to say wearing a tool belt. A woman after his heart. True love prevails... excellent read!!!

"Wild in Love" (The Maverick Billionaires Book 5) by Bella Andre and Jennifer Skully is a wonderful read. I loved Tasha and Daniel's story! This story has passion, romance, close family, billionaires, entertaining characters, and more. I can't wait to see what happens next in this series in Gideon's story! Highly recommend to all fans of romance, billionaires, family, and series.

Daniel and Tasha Hanging Cabin Love Tryst! 2.75***** Spoiler Alert
Tasha Summerland blindsided by her family grifter ways, ran away to her rundown cabin she had been revamping, while thinking of her future (So the burning question should be where did she get the money to buy the cabin and land??). Anyhow, that's how Daniel met and rescued her hanging from her dilapidated cabin's roof top. Daniel Spencer, a self made DIY video millionaire, with a rags to riches past, saw her and immediately fell in love with her. Tasha met his four adopted brothers, and she opened up to them about her father, fiance Eric, and brother Drew's cons, while he melted the barriers she erected. Yes they went from Hello to "Marry me!" , in less than two weeks to HEA, all over a Memorial Day weekend!!
The dialogue was repetitive; the plot was lackluster and unbelievable for a woman with trust issues. Drew's commuted sentence to do community service, after bilking all those people out of millions of dollars, was elitism and white privilege displayed to the nth degree. Daniel's mother's bumpy story was unimaginative to say the least. But I cleared another book from my TBR shelf! Read this at your own risk... I should have left this on my TBR shelf!
