A Little Too Wild by Devney Perry
5.0
I inhaled these three books like I was a drug addict and they were cocaine! I loved this magical world of snow and skying and helicopters and snowboarding! I loved these three men and the wonderful women who loved them, and I cheerfully hated Mark Madigan, their father, who caused them so much trauma during their teenage years.
The celebrity among the Madigan men, Crew Madigan, arrived with the intention of being there for his big brother’s wedding and head out next morning to continue on his fast track world of pro snowboarding. He kept busy in his pro career to forget about his family and his wrecked home life and he likes his fast world just fine, thank you.
But then his brothers trapped him into a sponsor photo shoot at their resort, then guilt trip him into checking out their new facilities: a half pipe and a terrain park that they’re building for the snowboarding fans, and what is best, Olympic sized, so all the pros can do their training there. There are strong hints to get Crew do his training there, but Crew is resisting and hard!
The only thing keeping him home is Raven, the girl he used to crush on in high school, his best friend River’s younger sister. And here is where it all gets interesting. River feels competitive with Crew but lacks the discipline and drive, but guess who has it and in spades?
There’s a wonderful story of love growing between Raven and Crew, jealousy from River, Reed and Weston wanting to keep their little brother home, and Mark Madigan asking for redemption from his sons. It’s a lot of action, a lot of love, and a lot of snow. This resort is magical!
I loved Raven and Crew’s shenanigans, the closeness that is developing between Crew and his brothers and the connection that he’s getting again with the resort. I get the hurt they all feel when they visit their old home and feel the absence of their mother and her art. But I also relish the love they feel for the snow and their mountain. Crew has shoulder problems and time’s ticking on his next competition. Raven needs to make a decision on her future and River needs to hold a job! This book had all the feels and it was also fun. Addictive!
