Wild On You

<br /><b>Wild on You</b> is a fun and light romance suspense with some cheeky humor and sexy banter, but plan on suspending your disbeliefs a bit for this one. This is book one in a new series staring hot and sexy former Navy SEALs who now work for Chase Justiss of The Justiss Alliance security firm. <br /><br />For comparison, the writing and storyline reminds me a lot of author Christie Craig, who also writes fun over-the-top romance suspense novels with cheeky humor and a good dose of heat. If you like her books, or that format, I'd recommend this series. If you are looking for something along the lines of Troubleshooters by Suzanne Brockmann, this isn't your book.<br /><br />This is Risk's story. He is a former SEAL and a complete thrill-seeking adrenaline junkie. His first official case is to babysit Addie, a spunky lesbian animal rights activist who has pissed off a legion of groups with her less-than-legal methods to protect animals. Her overbearing, ex-military father hired The Justiss Alliance security firm against her will, and she isn't ready to play by Risk's new rules.<br /><br />As you can well guess, Addie isn't really a lesbian and the sparks quickly fly between these two. But everything else is true, as she is ruthless in her pursuit of saving animals from terrible (and often fatal) conditions, and will put her own life at risk if necessary. After nearly losing her life to save a young tiger named Tigs, she has no choice but to admit what her father already knew: someone wants her dead. <br /><br />The story moves at a clip pace and ends with a dramatic life-and-death encounter with the bad guys. It has a good dose of naughty steam as well. This has the insta-lust-to-love formula, but it worked for this type of story. While the dialogue felt a bit forced, and Addie border lined as a TSTL heroine at times, I still enjoyed it. <br /><br />As I said earlier: this book requires you to suspend your disbeliefs and just go with it. This book isn't big on accuracy or realism, its more farcical and silly. I am not sure I will stay with this series though, it was good but I wasn't blown away. <br /><br />This is a stand-alone read, but I would recommend you first read <a href="https://goodreads.com/book/show/18594797.Wild_Hearts__Justiss_Alliance___0_5_" title="Wild Hearts (Justiss Alliance, #0.5) by Tina Wainscott" rel="noopener">Wild Hearts</a>, a short novella that explains the teams suspension from the SEALs program and introduces each of the new characters. This story will re-visit the event that took place in Mexico (but not in much detail), so it is not required, but you will get a much better understanding of the teams dynamic if you read it first. <br /><br /><i>ARC provided by Netgalley.com</i>

Addie Wunder, an animal rights activist and daughter of a five-star general, has made a few enemies. One of them means her harm so Dad is forcing bodyguard protection on her against her protests. <br /><br /><b>About Addie</b><br />She's not completely convinced she's in danger so she doesn't roll out the welcome mat for Risk. Addie's a knockout and she's also very, very good at what she does. Her life is completely devoted to the animals and this attraction she's feeling for the ex-Navy SEAL is an unwanted DIS-traction. <br /><br /><b>Romance and suspense</b><br />Despite starting with a bang and ending with a very exciting and tension filled climax, the balance leans more towards romance in this story. Risk has a wicked sense of humor that keeps things lively. Addie's no slouch and matches him quip for quip. <br /><br /><b>Standout moment</b><br />There's one scene that will always be memorable and it involves a little public hanky-panky. It was outstanding. You'll have to read it for yourself. <br /><br /><b>The bottom line</b><br />I really enjoyed this story despite preferring a bit more suspense. The romance worked even when these two did the denial dance. The characters are appealing and the other Justiss Alliance teammates are a big draw. I'm still in with this series. <br /><br />(I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review)

Rick Yarbrough, aka Risk, joined The Justiss Alliance and his first mission is babysitting a general's daughter. But Addie Wunder isn't going to be an easy assignment. She is an animal rights activist and has an agenda of her own. Being guarded isn't on it.<br /><br />The concept was good but the execution didn't work for me. Risk had a one track mind and it should have been on protection. Seriously, he was like a dog in heat and didn't act professional at all. Addie was careless and just didn't work for me. If you can get over those things then the story was alright.

3.5 - Zucchini and Booby Squeezing Stars!<br /><br />Wild On You is book one in The Justiss Alliance Series, although I recommend that you read the prequel novella Wild Hearts, just so you get all of the guys back-stories and the reasons they are where they are, before you dip into the full novels.<br /><br />Rick “Risk” Yarbrough has just recently been discharged from the SEALs, though not by choice and even so, hasn’t lost his sense of adventure. Joining Chase Justiss’s team seems like the perfect set-up for him, only protecting a “Lesbian. Vegetarian. Animal Activist” is not necessarily what he had in mind for his first assignment.<br /><br />Addie Wunder, is the said “Lesbian. Vegetarian. Animal Activist” he has been assigned to protect, and after pushing her luck one too many times with the wrong kinds of people in the pursuance of animal rights, she has landed herself with a few choice enemies, one of which has his sights set on shutting her and her operation down completely.<br /><br />I really enjoyed this book in the main, and apart from the novella, this is my first foray into the writing of Tina Wainscott. The story and characters are well thought out, and the writing easy to absorb yourself in. I will be honest and say my initial thoughts on Addie and her gung-ho, “I am going to do whatever I want and screw the consequences” attitude weren’t that great; but she grew on me as the book progressed, and she realized that her actions were having repercussive effects on those that she cared about. You also find out pretty quickly that she is neither lesbian nor a devout vegetarian, and animal rights are pretty much the only thing she really has in her life at the moment.<br /><br />Risk although a total hottie, and extremely imaginative in the sexy-times department came across as a little sugary sweet for me. I mean this is an ex-SEAL, I was expecting him to have a dirty mouth and a bit more attitude. I loved that we get a bit more interaction with the rest his old SEAL team (Saxby, Julian, Knox &amp; Rath) at points in the book as well, but again the conversation was a tad PG-13 in my opinion. <br /><br />That-said I still enjoyed Wild On You, and I am definitely looking forward to each and every one of The Justiss Alliance (including Chase hopefully) getting their own stories in the future.<br /><br />ARC provided via Netgalley, in exchange for the above honest review.<br />

<b>Wild on You</b> is the first full length story in <b>Tina Wainscott's</b> Justiss Alliance series, we have previously met Risk and the other members of his elite SEAL team in the prequel novella <b>Wild Hearts</b> but this gives us a chance to get to know Risk and some of the others a little better. This is such a fun story, one that is full of humour, plenty of action and some great chemistry between the main characters. We get to see Risk starting to settle into life as a civilian and he gets much more than he bargained for in his first job for the Justiss Alliance.<br /><br />When he finds out his assignment is to protect a young woman Risk thinks it'll be a piece of cake, OK so she has already had attempts made on her life but how many enemies can one girl have? It doesn't take him long to discover that Addie is going to cause him plenty of problems though, a fierce believer in animal rights Addie is willing to go to whatever lengths it takes to protect innocent animals, even if it does mean breaking a few laws to save a life. She has upset plenty of people along the way and has a list of enemies a mile long. Add that to the fact that she isn't willing to spend her time sitting quietly somewhere safe - not when there are animals that still need to be rescued - and Risk has a big task on his hands. It doesn't help that he's having trouble keeping his hands to himself either, everything about Addie draws him in, her lust for life and the way she is so willing to fight for what she believes in leaves him desperate to know if she is as passionate in the bedroom as she is out of it.<br /><br />Addie is a fabulous heroine, she is the kind of woman who fights for what she believes in. She has strong principles and she stands by them. There were a few times when I found her ridiculously naive around Risk but thankfully their interactions were just so funny that it didn't spoil the story. Risk got his nickname because he is an adrenaline junkie, he lives life in the fast lane and loves adventure. He and Addie tended to feed off of each other as they come up with more and more crazy plans but I felt that their personalities really complimented each other and they were a well matched couple. They have great banter, fabulous chemistry and a believable connection so although their relationship develops quite quickly it didn't seem implausible.<br /><br />The suspense side of the story was good and I liked the fact that Addie wasn't a completely hopeless damsel in distress, she makes a couple of mistakes but I felt they were understandable ones and she always learns from them and goes on to make more sensible choices. I loved that Risk respected Addie's need to take action and that he took charge of her safety without forcing her to stop living her dream. He was willing to support her in her animal rights activities but insisted on her letting him help her and make sure she was safe while she was doing her thing. Working together they were able to accomplish much more than she would have done alone and she was smart enough to realise that. We get a chance to see some of the other guys from the Justiss Alliance again and I enjoyed the banter between all of the guys, they were obviously a very tight team in the SEALs and that hasn't changed even though they are now out of the military. I'm definitely looking forward to spending more time with the group as the series continues. If you're looking for a fun and fairly light hearted romantic suspense then I'd definitely recommend giving this one a try, I would say it's probably a good idea to read the prequel novella (<b>Wild Hearts</b>) first though because it is a great introduction to the characters and explains exactly why the whole team was forced out of the SEALs.

Risk, s*** that boy has no damn filter on his mouth, "because you're hot and you're my client, and those two facts are a bad combination as far as my profession integrity is concerned. Why did you need to prove that you're straight?" I mean s*** there is no damn filter at all, "let's just say that if I find myself near an available woman who revs my engine, we usually end up together." His smile disappeared. "And you do. Which was why I realized that thinking you went the other way was actually a good idea." And he's such a typical guy, "he shrugged. "Maybe I just liked having a reason to put my hand on your a**." He turned me on woa-baby did he ever, "I'd like to put more than words in your mouth." His fingers squeezed her butt, hoisting her even closer." And Addie the girl is such a demanding thing, "bang me," she ordered, using his earlier vernacular. "Now." At his surprised expression, she added, "please." He grabbed his pants and pulled his wallet out of the back pocket, then extracted a condom. Within seconds, he had it smoothed down over his penis." <br />

I was excited to read this one, I really liked the prequel, loved the premise of the group that the guys were going to work for. So am much as I wanted to like this book I ended up giving this one up and it was all due to Addie. She drove me nuts, is in the TSTL category. Risk wasn't much better, with his need for adrenaline. In the end because of the characters this one wasn't for me. I might check out the next book, not sure yet.

Wild On You is my first read by Tina Wainscott. Risk and Addie's story was a fun read, full of humor, action, suspense, sizzle and totally lovable characters. I look forward to reading more from Tina Wainscott in the future. Wild on You is part of the Justiss Alliance Series but can be read as a stand alone. This is a a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
