The sole survivor of a fatal bridge
collapse, Katie Kramer resolves to live her life “balls out”
from now on. Determined to live her life traveling from one
adventure to the next, Katie finds herself heading from Los
Angeles to the Sierras, where she takes a temporary job at
Wilder Adventures as the office manager. Living in one of
the Wilders’ cabins, Katie wakes up one night to find a
mysterious, sexy stranger claiming she’s in his bed.
After a terrible accident took away the
life he once knew, Cameron Wilder left his home in Wishful,
California to travel. Now home once more, he wants nothing
more than to get some sleep. So when Cam finds someone in
his bed, he’s none-too-pleased, even if that someone is a
gorgeous “Goldilocks.” Though they get off to a rough
start, passion and a thirst for excitement soon draw Katie
and Cam closer together. But will their unwillingness to
put their hearts on the line bring their newfound
relationship to an end, or will two wary souls risk
everything for what could be the greatest adventure of all?
Get ready for a fast-paced, meltingly
sexy, heartwarming romance. As wild as the hero’s name
suggests, Instant Attraction grabbed my
attention from the get-go and didn’t let go until the very
end.
Cam and Katie were characters you
couldn’t help but fall for. Each has been through a
traumatic, life-changing accident which left its mark on
them, and each deals with it in their own way. I admire
Katie for opening herself up to new experiences, to living
her life “balls out,” as she is fond of saying. As for Cam,
his withdrawing from the life he loved is understandable,
given what he went through. I was captivated watching Katie
draw him out, getting him to not only survive, but to truly
live once more. They were a perfect fit, each being exactly
what the other needed, in life, in bed, and in love.
Not only did I love Cam and Katie, I
became extremely attached to the rest of the Wilder family.
I loved the subplot of Cam’s Aunt Annie trying to work
things out with her husband, Nick. I was every bit as
invested in their troubled relationship as I was to Katie
and Cam’s growing one. As for Cam’s brothers, Jill Shalvis
has made me incredibly impatient for Stone and T.J.’s
stories. And given the sparks that began to fly the minute
Emma was introduced, she and Stone are bound to heat up the
page in the upcoming Instant Gratification. Filled
with characters I adored and not one, but two romances I was
invested in, Instant Attraction charmed me
from the first page to the last, leaving me fully satisfied
and hungry for Ms. Shalvis’s next Wilder brother tale. |
