Jorinda Pearce thought she did everything right – graduated from college, married her long-time sweetheart, established a career. But what does she have to show for it now? A degree she doesn’t use, a job she hates, and an ex-husband that broke her heart.
Looking for a long overdue adventure, Jorie takes a walk on the wild side and attends a masquerade event at The Wicked Horse Vegas. It’s exactly the escape she’s looking for, and even better, she can explore anonymously. Drawn to the man masked in black leather with the body of a god, Jorie finds the greatest pleasures of her life at the hands of a stranger.
Walsh Brooks is the most sought after man in The Wicked Horse. Sex is nothing but a game to him and he’s the type that will always leave at the end of the night without looking back. Unfortunately for Walsh, there’s no way he can walk away from the mysterious green-eyed beauty behind the mask of sapphire feathers, because he knows exactly who she is.
Jorie is his best friend’s little sister and there’s not another woman in the world that’s more off limits.
This is the first book I’ve read in the Wicked Horse series, but I know Sawyer Bennett is a queen in the world of erotica. Wicked Wish is a brother’s best friend forbidden romance with some serious X-rated kink.
I liked the reason behind Jorie’s desire to explore her sexuality, and the chemistry between her and Walsh is insane. It’s a good story. I just couldn’t fully get past the fact that Walsh is eight years older than Jorie and has known her in a brotherly sense all her life. It was weird for me to think about going from him babysitting her to him then thinking of her in a sexual way. Perhaps if the age gap was smaller and they didn’t emphasize Walsh practically raising her I would have felt differently. I did appreciate the strength of Walsh’s bond with Jorie’s brother Micah and the amount of strain Walsh’s deception causes.
