Sarah May was born in Northumberland, England in 1972. She studied English at London University and Creative Writing at Lancaster University.
Her acclaimed first novel, The Nudist Colony (1999), was shortlisted for the Guardian First Book Award. A bleak, menacing fable set in a violent and corrupt England, the story centres on 14-year-old Aesop and his manipulative mentor. Her second book, Spanish City (2002), is a novel set in a pleasure resort on the north-east coast of England and chronicling the evolution of pleasure across the twentieth century, for which she was jointly awarded a 2001 Amazon.co.uk Writers' Bursary. The Internationals, set in and around a Macedonian refugee camp during the 1999 Kosovo crisis, was published in 2003. Her fourth novel was The Rise and Fall of the Queen of Suburbia (2006). Her latest book is The Rise and Fall of a Domestic Diva (2008).
‘Just the sight of her is strange and yet somehow wonderful. My mouth suddenly feels dry.’
Katie Ford joins Sarah May again in this WILD BEAST and she only offers as a bio – ‘Hi, we're Katie and Sarah! If you're looking for something short, smutty and satisfying to read, then you're in the right place!’
Before the writing begins the ladies offer the following salutation - ‘Hey Readers – If you love untamable, growly mountain men, then this is the book for you! Damien Evercore’s gonna make you want to disappear into the woods and never come back.’ And the flavor of that Mountain Man (Damien Evercore) is described early on – ‘I’m an animal. A predator, a beast – the thing that lurks in the shadows. And nothing can ever change that. I’ve been away from civilization for a long time, and I don’t intend to go back. My hours are filled with doing what I need to survive. There’s not a lot of time for mindless thought, and I like it that way. Tonight, I’m outside chopping wood. The sun is sinking low in the sky and the air is filled with the scent of dew. I guess it’s the time of day where most people are sitting around at home with their families. I don’t have a family. I like things that way, too. The wind shifts and I hear the sound of bushes rustling. Silently, I make my way closer to the woods. A branch twitches in front of me and I freeze in my tracks. And that’s when I see it. Inch by inch, a small, pink sneaker sliding from out of the trees. The sneaker is connected to a lovely, shapely leg. The thighs are thick and creamy, just how I used to like them back in the days when I wasn’t a hermit…etc’
And so we meet the two main characters and the story sails by quickly - ‘On his mountain, I become his property. Emma Hadley's a bored rich girl stuck at home. When her father threatens to send her off to reform school, Emma runs away into the wild... and straight into the arms of a mysterious mountain man. Damien Evercore's lost his faith in the world. He's seeking solace and peace in the depths of the forest. But when a curvy girl hurtles into his arms unexpectedly, suddenly the ice surrounding his heart melts. Because the mountain takes what he wants, anytime he wants ... including the gorgeous brunette with the tempting smile.’

Customer Review 5.0 out of 5 starsAn emotional story of love and abuse!! By sewsummore TOP 1000 REVIEWER on 2 June 2018 Format: Kindle Edition Damian is an an ex-con living alone in the forest, a true life mountain man, living in a rustic cabin in the woods. He was once the CEO of his own company until he was falsely convicted for fraud and sent to jail. Emma is a curvy, young woman he finds in the forest, lost and abandoned as a joke and terrified of the mountain man who finds her. He calms her down and takes her back to his cabin where he helps her clean up and feeds her. It has been a long time since he had been attracted to a woman. As they talk he realizes that she was older than he first thought and is finding him just as attractive, telling her anyone who would play a nasty joke like abandoning her in the forest is no man and must be blind if he could not see how attractive she was. I found this an emotional story of love and abuse as the truth of her parentage comes out and the the anger at betrayal forces them together, righting wrongs and creating a new life and hope for the future.

What starts out as one time turns into many more. Damien, however, doesn't know what to do with his feelings. He knows he should push Emma away, but he is addicted to her. When truths come out, he will do what it takes to keep Emma out of the line of fire, even if it means letting her go. They have off the charts chemistry and their lives are similar. Due to their similarities, they are a perfect match for each other.
Katie Ford and Sarah May have such a fantastic collaboration with their stories and this story is no exception. Damien was betrayed and sent to jail for a crime he didn’t commit, now he is a recluse and living in the mountains. Emma is a young curvy girl who goes into the Forrest with a guy she’s crushing on, but he ends up leaving her in the Forrest alone.

Emma is a sweet girl, she is super curvy and just wants someone to care for her. After a prank Emma finds herself stranded in the woods, then she meets Damien. Emma, is the kind of girl Damien is attracted to however, he tries to keep his distance. Especially since he discovers she is the daughter of the man who framed him. They both decide to risk it all to be together. I thought the story was good! Damien brings out the wildness in Emma and she brings out the goodness in him. I like how their story entwines around her father and his deceit. Made for one interesting read!

I was hooked on the writing style of Sarah & Kate right from the beginning. The storyline and characters were brought to life with their personalities and outside influences in the storyline. Emma is the overweight daughter of wealthy parents. She meets Damien only by happenchance after going on a hiking date with a boy from school who ditched her up in the woods. Not being an outdoors person, she's trying to find a way home when she runs into Damien only by happenchance. He's living as a recluse in the woods up in the mountains wanting nothing to do with civilization after coming out of prison. This was an entertaining easy read with characters, storyline, and of course, hot love scenes.

Emma and Damien meet while she's been ditched by an arrogant guy from school. She is somewhat afraid but more so intrigued by the handsome but wild looking man. Something about him turns her on in a way she's never felt before. Will she follow her heart and find out who this man is that lives isolated in the woods or be afraid for the same reason? Ford and May write another 5 Star combination.

When I borrowed this book on kindle unlimited I didn’t realize that it was about a young girl and a way older man. This wasn’t my thing, but I did end up finishing the book. Sometimes I felt like their relationship was kind of forced but I loved how obsessed and head over heels in love Damian was about Emma. Great writing, but the plot didn’t really captivate me.

I thought that Wild Beast would be steamier but it wasn't. The characters were good. The storyline was good. Not enough caveman for me. The nooks tha followed, I have read in previous collection. They were more steamier than the title book.
