Review•

I swear everything Rebecca Yarros writes is just pure gold.  Rebel was utterly fantastic.  This had an element of the taboo, plenty of stunts and action, and a couple that just tugged at my heartstrings.  The story was full of twists and turns along with cringe worthy moments and moments that I cheered out loud. 

Penna has earned her nickname rebel.  She’s strong, rebellious, and fearless.  That is until an accident shakes her foundation.  I loved the dichotomy of her strength and vulnerability.  Cruz is strong, determined, and a survivor.  I loved the connection between them.  The tenderness he exhibited with the vulnerability that only he seemed to see.  The chemistry was also smoking hot.  There were so many layers to these characters that I felt like I was peeling an onion back (tears included) each layer at a time, each chapter at a time.  The secondary characters were just as well-developed and we got to see the crew from the first two books as well.

There was some drama, that’s to be expected with a student/teacher romance.  There was the added tension of the stunts the Renegades were pulling, culminating in their greatest stunt ever.  I was alternating between being on the edge of my seat to curling under my covers with a cup of tea.  I was fully immersed and completely enchanted with the story.

If you haven’t tried a Yarros book yet, this series is a great one to start with.   If you’re a xtreme sports fan, it’s a must.



•Excerpt•

“Oh God, don’t do that.”
“Do what?”
That.” He pointed toward my mouth. “Everything I told you in Vegas is still true. You’re still gorgeous, still sexy as hell, still everything that draws me in like a damned magnet, but you’re also everything I can’t have. Don’t you get that? When you pull shit like that on the dance floor, you successfully drive me batshit crazy, watching you in some guy’s arms.” A small laugh escaped him. “Like that kid has any idea what to do with you if he actually managed to catch you.”
“And you do?”
His eyes darkened. “Don’t challenge me like that.”
The tension stretched between us for a quiet moment until I broke the silence. “I didn’t kiss him.”
“I’m well aware, because if you had, I’m not sure if I could have let him walk out of here, and that’s dangerous, Penelope. You are dangerous to me.”
“I’m sorry,” I said truthfully. “Logically, I know nothing can happen between us. I get it. But I see you, and all I can think about is the way you kissed me in Vegas. The way you touched me. I can’t just erase those memories, Cruz. Like I said, somehow you make me do stupid things.”
“You? I make you do stupid things?” he nearly yelled, and I was thankful for the loud, driving beat of the music beyond the office doors. “Woman, I got into a strange car for you. Illegally BASE jumped off a Ferris wheel to stay close to you. Went to jail for you, and I make you do stupid things?”
He stalked forward, his movements smooth like a predator, and a low hum filled my stomach, growing stronger with every step he took.
“I let you stay in my class. Stupid. I look for every reason to run into you, while simultaneously praying you’ll stay far away because I need this job. Stupid. I take one look at you in that fucking dress, and I’m so hard I’m afraid I can’t hide it in a room full of students. Stupid. I can’t stop thinking about the way you taste, the way you open up under me, the way your nails left little half-moons in my shoulders when I found how wet you were for me.”
If he got his hands anywhere near me, he’d find out I was just as wet now. God, his words were the biggest turn-on I’d ever experienced. Next to his abs. Or his arms. Or his mouth. Crap, the man was one giant sex package begging to be unwrapped.
“Cruz,” I whispered as he cupped my face with one hand, his thumb rubbing over my lower lip, while he caged me against the desk with the other.
My tongue licked across the tip of his finger, unable to help myself.
“God, Penelope. You could cost me everything, and yet I’m still in here with you. And this might be the worst choice of all.”

His mouth met mine in a kiss that sent my senses reeling. His tongue swept in, claiming every curve he might have missed last time, until it felt like my mouth belonged to him.

EXCERPT

“Welcome to Latin American History.”
At that deep, lightly accented voice, my pen fell to the paper, as useless as my brain.
“This class will also serve as your Study At Sea seminar, which means I have the joy of getting to know each of you very well over the next three months since you’ll be writing a thirty-page thesis for me.”
The class groaned, and I slowly dragged my eyes from the paper, past the neck of the red-haired boy in front of me, to the man who stood at the head of our class, casually leaning against his desk. I took in the way his pants hugged his hips, the contrast of his rolled white button-down against his tanned skin, and the loose green tie at his throat. My gaze caught on his lips, the strong line of his nose and cheekbones, to the melty chocolate eyes that were focused on the other side of the room as he addressed the students there. His hair looked like he’d run his hands through it more than a few times, and his teeth flashed white when he grinned, those panty-dissolving dimples appearing.
My heart stopped beating and my breath froze in my lungs, as if the slightest motion would make him disappear. A rush of heat flushed my skin, and the knot in my chest loosened, unraveling as surely as my body had the last time I’d seen him.
“So let’s get started, shall we? I just flew in from the States today, but I’ll be sure to learn all of your names by the end of the week. Now if you’ll let me have this moment, I’ve been waiting eight years to say it— My name is Dr. Delgado.”
Two thoughts slammed into me simultaneously.
One—Delgado. At least now I knew his last name.
Two—Holy. Fucking. Shit. Cruz was my professor.

Review

Rebecca Yarros takes you on a ride of a lifetime with Wilder.  What an adventure she packs into this book!  It’s full of action, steamy romance, suspense—a little something for everyone.  Leah Baxter got the opportunity of a lifetime.  A year of college at sea, paid for through work study.  And not just for her, her best friend gets to come along too.  This is just what she needs to help her live again after a rough few years. 

Paxton Wilder is an adrenaline junkie and an Xtreme Sports competitor.  His dad wants him to finish college; he just wants to keep doing what he’s doing.  So a deal was struck.  Paxton has to pass this year of college with good grades and his dad will finance a movie about the stunts Paxton and his team like to do.  So he finagles an at sea program so he make the movie, do the stunts and go to college at the same time. 

I loved this book!  Watching as Leah learns to live again and blossoms under Paxton’s care was rewarding.  She had her fears and good reasons for them.   But she was strong as well.  And then there was Paxton himself.  I found him charming, sweet and romantic.  He was all about his friends.  You could tell that the bond he had with them meant the world to him.  He definitely got me swooning along with Leah.  The chemistry between them was hot and steamy.

The suspense aspect added a lot to the story, it definitely kept me engaged.  There were some twists and turns that I wasn’t expecting.  I love it when that happens!  And I loved the secondary characters, The Renegades and the hanger-on’s.   They helped round out the story.   This is definitely going on my favorites shelf.  I plan on re-reading this one and probably soon.  -Peace and Love, Buxom J
