About the Book

Sebastian Rousseau is a grumpy, hot as hell fire pilot who is too damn good with his hands.

It’s the perfect combination. But unfortunately for me, he’s also my ex-boyfriend’s dad.

A chance meeting brought us together and a missed connection has kept us apart.

One year later, a stroke of fate has us living under the same roof—which makes everything between us downright messy.

Because even after all this time, he’s still the man I think about when I fall asleep. The one I can’t get over no matter how hard I try.

He’s working on mending a fragile relationship with his son and we both know acting on these urges would be the ultimate betrayal.

But I see the heat in his eyes. That look of need that never fails to send a shiver down my spine.

The mutual longing is borderline unbearable and the simmering heat between us is downright palpable.

We both know there are rules when it comes to situations like this.

But then again…following the rules never has been my strong suit.

Review

My expectations for Wild Card were complicated. On one hand, I pondered if Elsie Silver would be on a high, and Wild Card would be equally impressive as Wild Side. I also considered the possibility that Wild Side would be the defining book in this series’ corpus and would forever be untouchable. If the latter consideration came true, then I at least hoped I would enjoy this book. That was somewhat the case. Wild Card scores the lowest out of the four books in the Rose Hill series for me.

I did not downright hate this book. In fact, I appreciated that it was not as messy as it could have been. Bash and Tripp’s relationship was complicated, and drama finds them once the truth is revealed. However, it could have been much worse. And from the way the book ended, I could see their relationship surviving this.

Another positive observation from Wild Card was Bash and Gwen’s relationship with Clyde. That was the highlight of this story. Both cared so deeply about him and spent most of the book ensuring that he was okay. Additionally, he was a fun and interesting character who brought much-needed entertainment to the book. Without Clyde, the book would only have Bash and Gwen, who, unfortunately, were the least interesting characters in Rose Hill. Their romance lacked spark and magic. I can count a few moments that they encountered that stood out to me.

Final Thoughts

Wild Card is a forgettable conclusion to an overall unforgettable series. With nonexistent chemistry and no real depth, Bash and Gwen’s romance doesn’t feel worth investing in. Silver might have attempted to villainize Tripp; however, at times, he felt more interesting than the main characters.
