BOOKWORM REVIEW: Reckless by Aurora Rose Reynolds


RATING: ⭐⭐⭐.5
STEAM: 🔥🔥🔥

Jade is making a huge change. She is moving to be closer to her best friend Cybil in a mountainous small town, leaving her life, her failed business, and her even bigger failure of a relationship.

What she did not expect in her trek to Montana was running into Maverick.

Maverick was not expecting someone like Jade, either. Now he cannot seem to get the redhead out of his mind. He thought he had closed the door on relationships forever, but will his feelings for Jade be the key to opening that door?

I enjoyed this read, but I also felt like it did not measure up to the other books in the series. Don't get me wrong: Jade and Maverick had amazing chemistry, and their spicy moments were definitely hot. There were fun moments among the ensemble cast, especially Everly's bachelor party. (And Margret is 100% my life goal.)  

Unfortunately, because its predecessors were captivating and fantastic, this book did not quite achieve the high bar they set. The pacing was not as solid as in Rushed or Risky, and the climax of the story was not engaging as in the others.

That said, it is still a fun small-town romance love story. It can be read as a standalone, but I highly recommend going back to the beginning of the series to appreciate the little references to the other characters in the book.

ABOUT THE BOOK

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Aurora Rose Reynolds comes a steamy romance about what happens when a risk-taker tries to follow the rules.

Jade has always been the reckless type. But after her relationship implodes and her business goes under, she realizes it might be time to change her ways. She decides on a fresh start in a new place: Montana.

But shortly after her arrival in Big Sky Country, she meets headstrong wilderness retreat owner Maverick, whose name, fittingly, means “dissenter.” Jade tries to convince herself he’s not the type of man she needs in her life. The problem is, she wants him in her life. She wants him more than anything.

For Maverick, his attraction to this out-of-towner is undeniable. But he’s sworn off relationships—until he gets to know the fiery-haired, fiery-tempered Jade. He can’t help but wonder if it’s worth opening himself up to her. It’s a gamble, sure. But is it reckless?

Or is love a high-stakes game of risk and reward that just might pay off in the end?
