Ride Wild by Laura Kaye
4.0

A super sweet romance between a widower and the nanny he hires to take care of his two sons that still has enough steam to justify that sexy cover.

"Slider" Evans has distanced himself from the motorcycle club and his brothers after the death of his wife not just because of his grief, but also because he never told anyone his wife's huge secret. His heart is closed, but his nanny Cora, recently hired after she took on protection from the Ravens Motorcycle Club may be the one to bring light back to his and his boys' lives.

Cora ran away with her best friend Haven and took shelter with the Club, but she never told Haven the exact reason why she finally got them both to leave their horrible families. Now she too is starting to see Slider in a new light but does not want to jeopardize her place in their family.

I loved that this story didn't have any insta-love between the characters and that they slowly came to each other, figuring out their issues together along the way. No major drama between them, and some great sexy time scenes featuring various motor vehicles. This book was a bit sweeter than I'm used to reading, but I'll definitely be picking up more from this series.

I would recommend reading them in order. I did not and there were definitely things I missed out on with other characters.

Thank you to Edelweiss+ and the publisher for the ARC!
