Wild Side

Elsie did it again. This time not only did she slay on the small town romance, she outdid everything else with the wrestling nostalgia. There were dozens of times I bawled my eyes out during the read. I don't want to spoil much but if anyone wants to bring back their forgotten obsession on WWE, get the book ASAP.I had a walk through my memory lane when I used to watch WWE with my brothers and they even tried some unharmful stunts on me too. Thank you Elsie for bringing back those memories. Now I guess I need to go watch some wrestling memories.

3.75/5⭐I had a hard time getting into this book at first, but after reading the first few chapters, I was invested.It was my third book by Elsie Silver and all of them had instant attraction tropes, which has never really appealed to me, but after the first few chapters, the story became captivating.Loved the way personal growth and the complexities of unexpected family dynamics is written.Where Tabitha is independent, loves her family fiercely, and is outspoken, Rhys has a brooding demeanor, enigmatic and stoic exterior.He let her hate him, let her believe the worst, because he knew her grief needed an outlet more than it needed the truth. He took her anger, her pain, without ever defending himself, because he knew she needed someone to blame more than she needed the truth. He was her anchor.And in return, she showed him what it meant to have a family, she showed him the warmth of belonging, the quiet strength of having someone who stays, who cares, who sees you at your worst and never turns away.Their banter, the playful bickering, the teasing was just as adorable and beautiful as their vulnerable moments, the way they let their walls down for each other.Loved the friendship bond between the girls and the boys. I'm so excited for Bash's book.

4.5/5 stars 🤩There are so many aspects of this Marriage of convenience that got it to the top of my favourites. I loved Rhys and Tabby as people before I started loving them as a couple. Milo was such an adorable kid, I was always looking forward to his mentions. I loved how Sassy Tabby was, she has the i-want-to-be-her-when-i-grow-up kind of personality.I knew the reason behind wild side and then I was simply obsessed. I liked those scenes and their dynamic so much.🌷Marriage of convenience🌷Banter and Chemistry😺 Kids and pets🌷Love the side characters🌷Characters from the previous books🥰🥰🌷Jealousy and mild talk to her and d!e🌷Celebrity🌷Strong, supportive and mature FMC🌷 Broody but soft and supportive MMC🌶️ Spice - 3/5Though I was afraid of the miscommunication that was happening there, I understand their reasons and it was handled well. I love Tabby even more for that particular decision, how she understands Rhys well. And without spoiling anything, the reason behind wild side made much more sense to the whole huge guy trope.TW: de*th of loved one, substance abuse, foster care situation

This book was everything and the chemistry between Rhys & Tabby was great! What I loved the most was how they dealt with the whole situation about Milo so maturely and how both of them loved him so much. Rhys deserved the absolute best and to see him slowly bond with the guys and Tabby's family was heartwarming! All the side characters added a nice layer of energy to the story. The book also dealt with the topic of grief and Elsie did a good job with portraying all the emotions. Overall I loved it and couldn't get enough! I'm already so excited for the next book!
