Welcome to Book three in Serena Bell’s must read series, WILDER ADVENTURES. Meet the Wilder brothers. They run Wilder Adventures, an outdoor adventuring business in Rush Creek, Oregon, where the West meets the Pacific Northwest. They're rough, rugged, and always ready to roll out their sleeping bags. But the adventuring business is not what it once was. Overnight, Rush Creek has become a wedding and spa destination--and the five Wilder brothers are scrambling to retool their business. And none of them is prepared for the smart, sexy, up-for-anything women who come with this new territory. As the brothers race to turn charter fishing into girls'-night-on-a-boat and river rafting into standup paddleboard yoga, the new women of Rush Creek will teach five smoking hot heroes that it's always Wilder in the woods

So, this is Clark’s story and I knew going in that this quiet widower was going to pull at my heartstrings. His wife, Emma, died suddenly and Clark has been hesitant to rejoin the dating scene. Jessa is a friend of Clark’s deceased wife, she is a wedding planner by trade, recently divorced, and when she ends up alone on a Wilder Adventure being led by Clark she can tell there are mixed feelings - the plot thickens as Jessa’s Ex-Husband is also on this excursion. As one thing leads to another Clark and Jessa agree to pretend they are in a relationship, this will be mutually beneficial for both of them, no strings attached. RIGHT! I mean after the excursion they can go their separate ways, no problem.

The plot thickens when Clark’s brother announces his engagement and Jessa is requested as the wedding planner. If that’s not enough, Clark finds himself not wanting to let his mom down by admitting his relationship with Jessa was fake. Therefor he decides to ask Jessa to continue their fake dating deal until after the wedding. Now they both need to remember this relationship is a farce but even with good intentions these two really never stood a chance, they were on their way to love.

Just as soon as they both get out of denial and stop fighting their feelings.

I loved this story even if I wanted to smack the denial out of both MCs several times! There is definite chemistry between them and their passion burns hot! Definitely a story you don’t want to miss!

Hello,

Apologies for the late notice, but I have decided not to review this title.

While I am certain it's obvious by now, I wanted to also clear this off NetGalley, so it's not showing as open for either of us.

I look forward to continuing to work with you in 2023 and beyond.

This book is hot, entertaining, hilarious and also emotional. The fake dating trope always seem to do wonders in a romantic story.

A quick and easy read filled with cute romance and steamy scenes! The dynamic between the main characters were out of this world cute and fun! Cannot wait to see more of these series!

Small town romance, fake dating and forced proximity in a little tent.. sign me up immediately please!

This was super cute.. predictable but fun and enjoyable nonetheless! I really enjoyed the writing, although I do wish I’d read the series in order (I didn’t realise this was book 3!) so I’ll be going back to catch up. I’m excited to read the other brothers stories, I loved Clark and Jessa so I’m expecting good things!

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Easy romance read and there is both a splash of cute and spice! Tons of adventure and I see a potential where this series will go into because I actually enjoyed the dynamic between these characters so much!

This wasn't an OMG Amazing First purchase for me, It's too crowded of a market to give this one purchase priority.

As much as I wish I went into this book reading the previous books, I adored it. It was a perfect blend of love, acceptance, crazy family antics, adventure and steaminess. A fast paced well written romance with likable characters. More than anything I loved that FMC was very mature and bold. She accepted MMC wholeheartedly. MMC was a widower and I thought I would’ve a problem with it but thankfully the author pulled it off. And FMC was never once jealous of the late wife. Even though I didn't know the other characters very well, it was easy to fall in love with that and the family. I will defiantly be reading the series now!!! The MMC was such a good hearted viking, you could see that he fell hard and quick with the FMC from the beginning (I'm a huge sucker for instalove)!!!

Thank you to NetGalley for providing a digital ARC.

This was a quick and easy read for a little light sunday reading. A small town vibe and fake dating, who could resist! The story is about Jessa and Clark a recently divorced wedding planner and a widowed man who is working for his family's business, outdoors activities, hiking, etc. I liked the way the author developed the characters and the relationship between our main characters.

Ugh this book was just fine. I think I wanted a lot more and this really left me feeling unsatisfied.

Thank you to NetGalley and Jelsba Media Group for an e-ARC of this novel in exchange for my honest review.

Jessa and Clark were so sweet! I am always a little worried when I go into a book that has a "character hasn't gotten over the death of a spouse" plot, but Bell pulled it off nicely, including a heroine who was never once jealous of the dead wife. And of course, a little romcom action never hurts.

I adored this book. It was a perfect blend of love, acceptance, crazy family antics, adventure and steaminess. This was also cultural rich. A fast paced well written romance with likeable characters. More than anything I loved that heroine was very mature and bold. She accepted hero wholeheartedly. Hero was a widower and I thought I would’ve a problem with it but thankfully the author pulled it off. And heroine was never once jealous of the late wife. This book also had humour and depth. Likewise hero was such a good hearted Viking. You could see that he was enamored with the heroine from the beginning itself. Definitely enjoyed, it was safe and I recommended.
