Product Description:
From the national bestselling author of “wickedly naughty”(Romance Junkies) erotic romance comes the latest scorching Wild Riders novel.
He’s a biker working undercover for the Feds. She has reasons of her own for joining the Wild Riders. Together, they’re burning up the asphalt and tearing headlong into danger and passion…
The guys always thought of Jessie as their kid sister, except Diaz Delgado. The past few years he’s been watching her—and Jessie’s glad somebody is. Delgado’s dark good looks and killer body have tempted her since day one. Diaz’s unbrotherly urges have been hard to fight but the last thing he wants is to hurt Jessie. But when they both go undercover with killer survivalists, he knows it’ll be hard to keep his distance—especially when the mission takes a risky turn. Now Diaz has no choice but to open himself up to the one woman strong enough to take him on.

The second book in the Wild Riders series. Good story with decent suspense. A page turner. Would recommend.
Rated by buyers -
Infiltrating a biker gang in hopes of finding the evidence needed to bring them to justice for illegal arms sells is a hard enough job for an experienced operative like Diaz. The last thing he wants to do is baby sit Jessie, a hellion bent on playing with the big boys even though he's adamant she's not ready. The youngest member of the Wild Rider Crew, a band of misfits turned legit, Jessie has yet to be given a chance to put her training to use. Ready and anxious she's unwilling to let Diaz stop her from getting the chance to prove she's more than able and ready to bring down the bad guys.
Good thing Jessie is just as stubborn as the man she desires and she refuses to give up her dream of having Diaz. Pulling out every trick in her arsenal, in her book, to make him realize she's no longer the starry-eyed teenager he very first met is just what she's willing to do.
Diaz is a man who's tortured by his past, a past filled with violence and rage. Rage he's been able to control and the last thing a rough and tumble guy like him needs is to touch an innocent like Jessie. He will have to keep his cool as he takes his team into the clutches of what could be a life threatening assignment but most of all he will have to figure out a way to keep his hands to himself.
Continuing her streak of impressive offerings Jaci Burton's latest Wild Rider addition brings plenty of fire and excitement in a story that makes me rethink the appeal of bikers. In Riding Temptation, a rough agent with a cynical view of the world is paired with a fresh eyed young woman who refuses to take no for an answer. From the beginning, the story takes on an emotional intensity that's palpable but intriguing. Jaci created a heroine who was sharp and street smart but still an overwhelming innocent. Rounding off this winning combination is Diaz, the strong silent and take-charge type who was able to bypass his rough beginnings and make a career on the right side of the law. Riding Temptation is definitely a keeper and great complement to the Wild Riders series.

Jessie has been part of the Wild Riders for ages, but everyone sees her as their little kid sister, which drives her crazy. She wants to be accepted as a full member, get her own very first assignment and even more, she wants to be seen as a grown woman.
Diaz Delgado watches over Jessie and he has been fighting his attraction for her, but he has no chance to ignore his feelings any longer when they are assigned to a mission where they have to infiltrate a biker/survivalist group. Very soon, not only their lives but also their hearts are endangered.
Ms. Burton has done it again. No one can write such wonderful stories with those much loved, big Alpha Bad Boys like she does. Her books are full of humor, steamy moments, lots of suspense that will keep you glued to the pages, because you can hardly wait to see what will happens next. You will be sad when you reach the last page of RIDING TEMPTATION, because you just don't want this terrific book to end. This book is the best Contemporary romance / Romantic suspense book that I have read in a very long time.
The whole cast of characters are absolutely fascinating and lovable. One can just fall in love with the Wild Riders bad boys. It's also fun to see how Jessie finally finds the full acceptance of the guys and Diego finally finds the courage to follow his feelings.
When it comes to Jessie & Diego's mission you never really guess who the real culprit is till the mystery is solved. That's what I also love with Ms. Burton's books, they aren't predictable and all.
So if you love Bad Boys, RIDING TEMPTATION is the perfect book for you.
Keep your eyes open for RIDING ON INSTINCT, the subsequent instalment of the Wild Riders series, which will be released in April 2009.

The Wild Riders have always treated Jessie like their little sister. That's OK, she looks at most of them as her big brothers - except for Diaz. Her feelings for him have never been even remotely like sibling love.
Diaz, however, can't seem to view her as the woman she is now rather than the young girl that came to live with the Wild Riders all those years ago. Worse, he runs the other way whenever she comes near.
Now Jessie is joining his team on her very very first mission. The job will keep her and Diaz in close proximity, something Jessie plans to take full advantage of, employing every womanly wile she possesses to determine Diaz's true feelings for her...
I really loved the very first book in Jaci Burton's WILD RIDERS series, RIDING WILD, and with its sequel, RIDING TEMPTATION, the author surpasses my expectations for this series!
Just like that very first story, this book stars a hunky hero straddling his Harley-Davidson - NEVER a bad thing! Also like the previous book, we meet a heroine who is just as capable and ballsy as the hero, able to meet him on an even footing and hold her own with the big boys when the action starts.
Ballsy is definitely a really great way to describe Jessie. This woman is practically fearless, but still has the right amount of common sense. She has lived a hard life, and still managed to blossom into a loving woman who wields a good understanding of right and wrong, and chooses to take the high road. A straight-shooter, she isn't afraid to call things like she sees them, and always lets a person know where they stand with her. Oh yeah, she also manages to be one of those sexy, beautiful women who is aware of her looks without relying on them or trying to make other people conscious of them. She's the kind of girl men want and women want to be friends with.
From the moment you meet Jessie, it is plain that Diaz will never stand a chance against this force of nature once she sets her sights on him. He gives it a valiant effort, but the battle is truly over before it ever begins. Still, you have to give him an A for effort, even if his intentions were totally misguided in his attempts to resist the attraction he harbors for Jessie.
In his own mind, Diaz is nowhere near a hero. His fear of repeating his father's mistakes is so great that he is reluctant to form attachments or let anyone too close - especially women. The very fact that he is concerned about becoming his father says it all - Diaz is not the kind of man who condones violence against women. It just takes a lot of patience, some self-realization, and a swift kick in the seat of his pants to get him to see the truth right in front of his eyes. It's a good thing Jessie is quite capable of delivering both the patience and the swift kick. LOL
Jessie really doesn't play fair when it comes to snagging her man, and the results are absolutely delicious! I wish I had half of her cajones with men... Of course, the undercover job they are working on, posing as lovers joining a biker gang under suspicion for arms dealing is the perfect catalyst to propel her seduction along.
As with the previous WILD RIDERS book, this one has as much action outside of the bedroom as it does in it, as both our hero and heroine work together fighting crime. Ms. Burton spins a fascinating plot with a few twists, all while delivering a romance sure to inspire a night of real-life for many readers... Let me just say it is the kind of romance that most husbands see tremendous benefits from their wives reading!
RIDING TEMPTATION has it all - action, suspense, romance, and sensuality all wrapped up in a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat and have you clamoring for the subsequent story in the WILD RIDERS series!

Twenty-three years old Jessie Matthews wants to be more than a mascot to the special ops Wild Riders bikers; she wants to participate on their assignments as am operative. She has hope that will occur soon because their leader General Grange Lee has welcomed a female (see RIDING WILD) into the gang as a field agent.
No longer the street waif she once was; Jessie also wishes that Wild Rider biker Diaz Delgado would see her as a vibrant sexy woman rather than his tag along kid sister; she is unconcerned how the other bikers see her. She is thankful when her two dreams come true as General Lee assigns her and Diaz to investigate illegal arms dealers. Diaz, who has watched Jesse grow up, has been attracted to the woman for several years, but hides his feelings from everyone. However, being undercover and alone with her will test his libido and his heart as Jessie plans to seductively persuade her beloved they can be just like Mac and Lily, lovers and bikers.
The second Wild Riders romantic suspense thriller is a fast paced tale from the moment General Lee gives out assignments in Dallas and never decelerates until the climax. The story line is a bit thin, but filled with plenty of action. However, the tale is owned by the lead couple as knows what she wants and goes out to get it while he knows who he wants to avoid, but cannot elude her without jeopardizing the mission. Jaci Burton provides another exciting biker wild bunch romance.
