Product Description:
Mia Wilde has a reputation for being too wild to tame, but that doesn't mean she's going to let someone get away with distributing provocative photographs of her. So she enlists the help of private investigator Cameron Sinclair--the one man who seems immune to her flirtatious and outrageous personality. But Mia soon learns that appearances can be very deceiving.

Eh. Too Wilde to Tame is not horrible, but it's not great, either. Kinda meh.
The heroine is your standard acts-&-dresses-like-a-slut-but-is-just-misunderstood. The hero is a P.I. and partners with her cousin. Somebody's stalking her and calling her a slut, tramp, etc, and her roomie is in an abusive relationship.
I figured out the stalker immediately, but still didn't buy the motive, and didn't like the consequences.
But the main reason for the "meh" is the writing. It's kind of bland--telling instead of showing. At one point, she tells us that the position they're having sex in is erotic. Good grief. If it's really erotic, you don't have to tell us that.
Anyway, like I said--not a bad story, but there are too many better writers to waste my time on more books by this one.

Too Wilde to Tame tells the romantic, suspenseful, sexy, dramatic story of Mia Wilde and Cameron Sinclair.
This is Janelle Denison's latest book that's part of her Wilde series. Luckily, it stands alone pretty well, so even if you haven't read the other books in the series, you won't be lost.

Mia is the wild child in a family of overprotective brothers who loves to tease stuffy PI Cameron, who seems immune to her charms. When a stalker starts sending disturbing photos to Mia, she turns to Cameron to help her find the culprit and the two agree to a brief no strings affair, which quickly heats up. But when the person behind the photos is found, will it mean the end of the affair? Mia's roommate Gina is going through difficulties too as her relationship starts to turn abusive; could he be behind Mia's stalking?
While the characters (even the secondary ones) were well developed and there was plenty of chemistry, I had a hard time swallowing the mystery aspect of the story - readers could guess the identity a mile away, so it seemed very anti-climatic when it was revealed. I loved the character of Cameron - he was sensitive and well developed and a perfect foil to Mia's impulsiveness. I also liked that Mia had a talent and dream that she was able to pursue once her confidence was achieved. There were numerous love scenes that got pretty redundant after awhile - sometimes less really is more. But the dialogue was good, the premise of the story interesting, and the pacing just right. I only wish that Denison would've either dropped the mystery aspect altogether (since she couldn't pull it off) or beefed it up to make it more believable. It's kind of a drag, as this novel had potential to be better.

This book was very good. If you like steamy, this is it! I thought the writer captured the emotions of the male character very well. I very much enjoyed that he was not one dimensional. Keep 'em coming Janelle Denison.

For easy, fun reading, Janelle Denison really makes for a great time! I love her dialogue, the sex sizzles, the characters are fun and attractive to imagine in my head, and it certainly takes me away from the ho-hum life of raising 3 stinky kids and carting them around their soon-to-be summer activities--yikes! For those of you looking for serious literature, I suggest you look for the classics section in the library. For the rest of us who are looking for some fun--Janelle and the WILDEs are the greatest! The characters are believable, the relationships are not just flat on the page but are actually believable, the romance and sex scenes are great and I find them very enjoyable. Keep writing--I can't wait for the subsequent installment!
