*3,5 stars*

- I loved the hero in this book, he was nice and patient and caring
- I didn't love the heroine, she was a very judgemental
- The couple was cute together even if not very memorable
- the "she's not like other girls" thing was present in this book and I don't undertand why in 2020 we still have to see that in books
- The writing in this series is very simple (that's not bad btw!) and in this book in particular, I noticed that the author sometimes throws "big words" randomly, which are super noticeble because the rest of the writing is so simple and they kept taking me out of the story.
- I think the conflict in this story could have been handled better, because while the female character overreacted a little and she apologized for that, the truth is that the hero did screw up by not talking to her about what he was going to do before doing it (because he knew she was gonna say don't do it) and then his decision impacted her life in a big way (Even if he had good intentions) and he never recognizes that or apologizes for it. So I feel that while she took responsability for her mistakes, he did not.


The meet cute in this book is honestly the best one I've ever read. And everything after just gets better. I loved Clarke and her store, I loved Aaron, and I loved getting check-ins from all the previous couples. The story is so timely and good. Oh, and I think I love Dominik even more now too! If you haven't started this series, you're really missing out!

I think my favorites so far are Dax and Wylde!! I loved this book <3
I loved how they met, at first I was like ahh this is going to be the same as any other but I should never underestimate Sawyer because she put a cool spin on it.

I really enjoyed Clarke’s character she is guarded yes but she also puts herself out there even when she doesn’t want to. I like that she doesn’t follow hockey could careless who Aaron Wylde is. But they couldn’t deny the spark they both felt.

Great addition to this series I want more now in audio!!!!!! Lol

I loved the narration Teddy is phenomenal and CJ Bloom is perfection!

Wylde is the 7th book in Arizona Vengeance and after reading Rafe I couldn’t wait to read this book!

I must be a fickle woman because I have fallen in love with each and everyone of these hockey players! Wylde is no exception.

Aaron Wylde is out jogging getting ready to return for the new season of hockey. He ran by Clarke Webber’s Bookstore and happened to see this gorgeous woman in there. Turns out she is the owner and after buying gifts for his friends, just to talk to her and to ask her out . He asks her to go to a wedding with him. He ends up guilting her into going because she was going to cancel and he wasn’t going to allow her any excuses.

Clarke holds Wylde at arm’s length. She definitely doesn’t make it easy for him to go out with. Fortunately he is tenacious. He is determined he will break her into wanting to date him.

Wylde who had been a player really turns out to be a nice, honorable and hunky man! I loved reading Wylde’s story.

Kane’s story is next but for now Wylde’s story is 4.5 hunky stars.

4.5 Stars!
Aaron Wylde is so much more than the funny, playboy hockey player we met in previous books. He is smart, playful, protective and loyal and is everything I want in my heroes! Being apart of a championship team, he has enjoyed his perks. But now there is a beautiful, unassuming book store owner who captivates him and who doesn't fall at his feet. Clarke has been hurt before and keeps him at a distance, especially since her pain is more public than she wants to relive. Wylde is determined to prove he is more than a dumb jock, and make her trust that he will defend, protect, and never let her down. He is so sweet as he pursues her, trying to win her over. It is fun catching up with past couples that we love, and watch them make Clarke feel safe, included, and loved too. But Wylde has a past that holds him hostage and when Clarke's past catches up to her, will they be strong enough to trust each other, or will it all be too much? I really fell for both Wylde and Clarke and cheered hard for their HEA. I also loved the bond these sexy hockey players have, and their scenes together were so much fun. They give each other a hard time but they also support each other unconditionally. This is a fun, sexy and passionate story and I can't get enough of these sexy hockey players and the women who challenge and love them!

I loved Teddy Hamilton, and CJ Bloom's narration! They flawlessly nailed these characters so perfectly, making them their own. I was completely lost in their performance as they made me feel all the different emotions both Wylde and Clarke felt.
This is a fun, sexy and passionate story and I can't get enough of these sexy hockey players and the women who challenge and love them!

Chirp listen narrated by Teddy Hamilton and CJ Bloom.

Wylde’s character was kinda swaggish and a little too dickish. I don’t like how he feels a kinda misogynistic. Hottest smex scene. Listened to chapter 14 over and over and over.

Clarke was a redhead, but WAS she?? I needed her to be bold, to put him in his place.

Audio Review: Wylde (Arizona Vengeance #7) by Sawyer Bennett, Narrated by Teddy Hamilton, CJ Bloom


A smooth operator with an angel's face and a bruised heart. Wylde is all of those things and more. Bennett continues to be as unpredictable as the characters that she writes. One minute, she goes full blast when it comes to naughty and the next she plays the strings of the heart like it's her own personal violin. This time around Bennett gives emotions quite the work out with a little help from her friends. Through the eyes of heartache, Hamilton and Bloom tear down the masquerade and expose Erin and Clarke for the work in progress they are. Friendship, family and what looks a lot like love, makes for a temptation that is not to be missed.

I really enjoyed Bennett’s newest – it’s straight-forward, sweet, and relatable. Some of the others in the series may have had more drama or action or heartbreak but I have to say that the one thing they all have in common is the author’s ability to deliver a satisfying read every time. And this time is NO different.

I like Clarke. She’s normal, spunky, and willing to move out of her comfort zone here and there. Nothing can really prepare her for Aaron Wylde, and she makes him work for dates, but he’s charming (doesn’t he know it) and manages to wrangle a few outings out of her … she’s a goner after that.

While Wylde has been living up to his name, I think that life was telling him that it was time for something more by putting Clarke into his path. No one is going to make a relationship work if they aren’t ready for it and it is obvious pretty quickly that Aaron’s wild days are over. Bennett probably could have made it harder for him, especially with his childhood, but the family that he’s making with the Vengeance has done a good job of showing him what it is all about. He’s had awesome examples of coupledom and he steps up like a pro when he needs to.

It’s pretty obvious from the start that Clarke’s issues are going to play a roll in the story but once Aaron wriggles his way into her life she does try pretty darn hard to get over her past. And I appreciate that Bennett doesn’t make it into too much of a dramafest. Instead she gives us an charming story of two people getting to know each other, falling in love, and working through a rough patch, which they handle like adults.

While returning readers will enjoy seeing past couples again, Wylde can easily stand on its own. (Although new readers might want to make space on their bookshelf for the backlist …)
