Today I’m excited to participate in the Blog Tour of ‘Wild Child’ by Audrey Carlan. This is an all-new must-read romance with off the walls chemistry and heart from the #1 New York Times bestselling. ‘Wild Child’ is available now!
After reading the book description of ‘Wild Child’, I knew this was a book I wanted to read. I hadn’t read a book by Audrey Carlan before, but I read some good stuff about her on other blogs. And I also just loved that cover.
In ‘Wild Child’ we meet Simone. Simone grew up in Kerrighan House, a loving home filled with foster girls. They all have a different story, but they all ended up together and with an unbreakable bond. They really are chosen sisters. Simone has always been the ‘wild’ one. No matter what happens she wants to make the best of every day and she wants to make her own money. So that’s why she is working three jobs, while doing part time college. But one unfortunate evening, she loses one job and gets pulled over by FBI agent Jonah Fontaine. But although this is a horrible day for her.. Jonah saves her life that day, and soon they both realize Simone might also have saved his life.
This book was definitely very different than what I expected it to be. And not in a bad way. I thought this was ‘just’ a romance. But it also had a few suspense moments that made this read very fascinating. But what I loved the most about this story was the whole foster sister bond between Simone and her sisters. Your imagination definitely gets going while reading about all these different sisters, and I hope I get to read the other books in this series too.
Simone and Jonah, where the two main characters and I loved them. Yes, their romance was rather sudden and I would have enjoyed it going a little slower.. but their chemistry and their story made up for that. They are definitely opposites in many ways, but they really worked well together. I loved how honest and ‘wild’ Simone was. And Jonah’s serious side just was the perfect fit for her.
The suspense in this book kept me sitting on the edge of my seat. There is a murderer on the loose, and Simone and Jonah find themselves right in the middle of the murderer’s path. I just couldn’t put this book down after I started it. And it was definitely teeth-biting suspenseful at times.
‘Wild Child’ was a very fun, romantic and suspense filled read that kept me hooked from start to finish. It definitely made me want to read more about the Kerrighan sisters and their sisterhood.

“Ma’am just follow me. Closer.” He waved his non-gun-toting hand as he walked backward.
“I don’t understand. This is so crazy. I didn’t do anything wrong. I swear! It’s my car and I don’t have drugs. You can check it.”
“And I will, when you’re safely sitting in my car.”
“Oh my God! You’re arresting me!”
That’s when I lost it.
I punched my hands into my hair, tugging on the long, beachy golden waves until they were hanging off my now heated neck.
“This is unbelievable! The absolute worst day of my entire life. And my parents died in a fire!
At the same time! And I had to go to foster care with my sister. And this day, oh my God.
Sonia! My sister…no, Officer, you cannot arrest me. You do not understand what this will do to my sister. She’s the…”
“Ma’am! Get over here now!” The officer grated through a super scary rumble pushing me into immediate action.
When I got closer, he latched onto my wrist and tugged me close to his body. My chest slammed against his and I placed my hands to his muscular biceps. I stared up into the darkest set of eyes I’d ever seen. Like a black cup of coffee, yet with little golden-brown flecks at the center. His skin was an olive tone, his jaw cut square, framed by cheekbones that were sharp slashes as though chiseled into fine marble. He had dark brown hair that was longer on top and shorter at the sides. If I had to guess, I’d put him in the dark Italian stallion category or Greek god.
He was beautiful.
One of his hands moved to my waist where he squeezed, and he dipped his head so close to my ear I could feel his warm breath against my cheek. “We received a report that someone crawled into the back of a blonde woman’s red old-model four-door Honda Civic at a gas station. First two letters of the license plate are A2.”
“W-what?”
“I need to check your car. Fast. If it’s not you, another woman could get hurt.”
“Oh my god! I did get gas.” I held onto his biceps so hard I may have left nail imprints.
“It’s okay, you’re safe now,” he murmured, and I closed my eyes, taking in his woodsy and fresh linens scent. It helped calm me instantly.
Until we both heard the familiar metal creaking sound against the quiet of the cool night.
I whirled around and saw a thin, tall man standing next to my car, a full ski mask covering most of his face aside from cutouts around the eyes and mouth.
Before I could do or say anything, I was grabbed around the waist and spun behind the cop as the guy in a mask lifted his arm, pointed a gun, and fired off two shots.
