Review: Call me Wild - Robin Kaye


Unemployed New York Times sports reporter, Jessica James gives up her big city life and moves into a borrowed house in Boise, Idaho. She's determined to become a great romance writer, and she only has one obstacle: she doesn't believe in love. Writing quickly becomes a challenge, so Jessica decides to go out and find some inspiration. She soon meets sexy, outdoorsy doctor Fisher Kincaid, who's more than happy to teach her all about love...

My thoughts:
I do like Kaye's heroes, sure this was only my second book but I have looked at the other books. They are just heroes that I would want to meet.

On to the review. We have a heroine who does not believe in romance (she has reasons) and who thinks she can sell a romance novel and make some quick cash. I was a bit on the fence first but then I got to know her more and understood her thinking.

The hero then, oh please let me have him. A doctor who loves to cook and clean *dies*. Yes please cook me dinner and clean my place. He is the perfect man, well except that he is sporty and likes healthy food ;)

The romance is a chase, he wants her, she only believes in lust (figure out for yourself what they do next). They struggle with feelings, they fall in love and there is drama.

And yes, it's book 2 in a series, but I have not read book 1 and it did not matter. It's a perfect stand alone. 

Conclusion:
It was a nice romance with a different heroine and a hero anyone would want to meet.

    Isn't there someone else, like Rachel Gibson or someone, who sets a lot of romances in Idaho?

      You're right, Chris. Rachel Gibson lives in Idaho--Boise, I think. She's one of my favorites. She actually wrote a scene that took place in a park bathroom that my husband built. It was so funny when I discovered her after just moving away from Boise. I picked up Truly, Madly Yours and I started reading... She talked about going up a highway I was familiar with and I realized Truly, Idaho was actually McCall Idaho.

    If she doesn't believe in lobe then why write a book about love? She should write a murder mystery or something. lol. Cute cover! Cute review!

      She thinks it will sell fast ;) Little does she know how hard publishing is also when it comes to romance
