Wild Riders #1
Riding Wild
He's a Harley-riding ex-thief...she's a gun-toting ex-socialite. Together they'll take the ride of a lifetime in this erotic romance.
Mac Canfield was the last man Lily West expected to see again, never mind aim her gun at. But there he was, the bad boy who'd broken her heart years ago � still a thief, hijacking a priceless artifact � and it was all she could do to push aside the memories of how it felt to have his perfectly chiseled body next to hers.
Mac was no less shocked to see the beautiful girl next-door again, threatening to shoot him. Little did she know she was blowing his cover. He had to get her out of harm's way without succumbing to his desire to take her on a hot trip down memory lane.
But Lily has no intention of going anywhere with Mac, which means he'll have to resort to kidnapping. Unless she agrees to let him take her for the kind of ride destined to drive them both unbelievably wild.

Opening Line: "As assignments went, this one was odd."
GET YOUR MOTOR RUNNING...
RIDING WILD is the perfect fantasy escapism read. A bit like candy because you know it's bad for you yet it's oh so good. So strap on your leathers, hop on the back of Mac's Harley and hit the open road. It's sure to be quite the adventure as you dodge bullets and try to stay one step ahead of both your sexy kidnapper and the bad guys who aren't far behind. You'll be staying in tents, cheap motels and attending bike rallies along the way but you won't have any responsibilities. (Think no job, kids, husbands or laundry to worry about.) Just the wind in your face, the open road ahead of you and an engine purring between your thighs. So wrap your arms around that bad-boy hunk you've never quite been able to forget, snuggle in behind his broad shoulders and get ready to use him for a no strings affair.
Yeah, I really liked this book. It was fun, exciting and very, very sexy. Mac as our hero is never quite who he appears to be. Still it seems, running from a troubled past and the one woman he could never forget. Lily West is no longer the virginal girl he left behind either but now a spirited P.I who's pushed her memories of Mac aside and isn't going to believe his lies anymore.
Our couple are reunited at a museum as Lily attempts to stop a priceless artifact from being stolen. She'd never expected to see Mac again and it appears he hasn't changed either, he's still a thief. As the bullets start flying it's all Mac can do to keep Lily out of harms way and not blow his cover. She has no intention of going anywhere with him however and may just shoot him on the spot. All of which means Mac's going to have to resort to kidnapping to keep her quiet.
This is going to be quite the trip down memory lane as our couple hits the road. Mac can't tell her who he's now working for and Lily is willing to use any way necessary to steal the artifact back, even if it means using sex as a weapon. This time Lily's going to leave Mac just the way he left her years before; loving her and wanting more.
I can highly recommend RIDING WILD which is the first of the erotic Wild Riders series. I'm planning another escape soon with the follow up () Cheers.

Rich girl Lily is dumped (for her own good, of course) by sexy first love, wrong side of the tracks, petty thief, all around bad guy Mac.
Lily moves on, heartbroken, to college and a law enforcement/P.I. career (against rich guy lawyer Daddy's wishes). Daddy wants her to join his law firm; Lily wants to do her own thing and maybe take a walk on the wild side.
Mac moves own, gets in big trouble with his thievery, but manages to get his life turned around with the help of an ex-military General. Mac now works, along with some other former law breakers, for the General and a secret Government agency called Wild Riders. This agency uses the skills of former thieves to 'reclaim' goods that were stolen from the gov't., when the gov't can't reclaim them through normal, 'legal' channels.
Now after 10 years and on a museum stakeout, Lily witnesses her lost love Mac, stealing a museum artifact. Mac is shot at by some bad guys, sees Lily, and drags her along with him, escaping on a wild ride on his Harley. Inside the artifact is a vial containing a deadly poison that could wreck havoc on the world if it falls into the wrong hands. While Mac assures Lily that he's one of the good guys, Lily doesn't know if she should trust him. How can she be sure that he doesn't want to turn the virus over to terrorists and make a ton of money? Mac can't tell her the whole story of who he works for, as he is sworn to secrecy, and is not sure who Lily is working for either. Lily wants to believe in Mac, but after 10 years, she's just not sure any more.
What follows is a wild ride away from the bad guys, on Mac's Harley, from Chicago to Dallas. On the way Mac and Lily rekindle their hot romance, and Lily and Mac learn to trust each other like they never have before. There's lots and lots of passionate encounters, a little suspense thrown in, and a meeting with the other sexy and a little dangerous Wild Riders that has 'numerous sequels' written all over it.
This was a sexy, fun, fast-paced read for me, and I'm hoping there are numerous sequels. It reminded me a little of Tara Janzen's 'Crazy' series, only more erotic. If you like an exciting, erotic read with a little suspense on the side, then this 'wild ride' is for you!

Wow! This is a fast and extremely sexy read! The chemistry between these two had the pages smoking as I was reading. In Dallas, as a teen Lily was a wealthy girl who fell for the town bad boy. He rode a motorcycle, ditched school, gets into trouble with the cops, etc. They fell in love, but neither acknowledged it at the time. Lily's father is of course extremely against their relationship. After all, Mac is just trash. At Lilly's urging, Mac (don't you just love that name)takes her virginity. Inside, he really feels that he is not good enough for her, and that she should listen to her father. He coldly dumps her and tears off into the sunset thinking he's doing what's best for her. She is understandably crushed. Her father wants her to go to law school and join the family business. She has never wanted that at all. She joined the police force. However, her father kept meddling and using his connections to make sure she stayed at a desk job and out of danger. She finally had to move states away to get away from him. She's now a private investigator in Chicago. She’s been given a job to test the security at a museum. She finds it sorely lacking. In fact, she’d been fantasizing about Mac while she’s on this job, and man on a Harley roars up and openly breaks in the museum right in front of her. What the hell?! It is Mac! She can’t believe it! He’s here in Chicago, and he’s not changed at all. Something happens to put them in danger, and he ends up basically kidnapping her to keep her safe. They begin a cross-country trek that brings them closer together, but also at odds. Mac can’t tell Lily the truth about himself. He actually work’s for the government. But if he tells her, he compromises his job and the secret group. She feels that he is on the wrong side of the law still and is doing everything she can to slip away from him contact the authorities and get away. She’s torn because she’s falling back in love with Mac, but feels she’s doing the right thing.

You've got a heroine who's an ex-cop and a PI. While staking out a museum, checking out the museum's night security on a job, she fantasizes about Mac, a guy she had a fling with as a teen ten years before, and never got over. Interrupting her fantasy is a man who looks a lot like Mac riding in and perpetrating a theft. She has her hand on her cell phone, but because he reminds of her Mac, she fails to call the police. When he emerges with the stolen goods, she points her gun at him, demanding that he stop and turn around. Of course, it's Mac, and of course, he calls her bluff, knowing she won't be able to shoot him. He's involved in a job much more complex than a simple museum robbery, and he takes her with him when someone starts firing on them.
This book has a lot of the elements that truly make me hate erotica, in particular, a heroine who's soooooo tough according to the narration, but whose actual behavior, if you step back and analyze it, is totally pathetic. She fails to do her job when he robs the museum. A little later when she decides to turn him in, she whips out her cell phone, announcing to him her intentions of phoning her agency. He promptly smashes the phone, which makes her angry while also making her want to cry. Yeah, some tough ex-cop. Ultimately, she compromises her job again and again because of her feelings for him, while he refuses to compromise his own mission, cuz as we all know, women are flighty creatures guided purely by their emotions while men are only guided by reason and their sense of duty and honor. I was hoping the ending would redeem the heroine and the story somewhat, but it was a total letdown. I also disliked the discrepancy between the father's actual behavior and how odious the narration implied he was. Well, I'll stop now. It would take too long to list all the things I hated about this book.

That was ridiculous. The premise here is that Lily is an ex-cop/private eye who is checking out security on a museum. Then a guy she went to high school with in a different state (and lost her virginity to) rolls up on a motorcycle and runs in and steals an "artifact." This is all the item is ever referred to as. Inside the "artifact" is a vial of a virus. They proceed to race all over the country having sex constantly while she pretends she's just working the case. We learn that he's in a super secret government agency, so secret that the government doesn't even know about it. Yep. It is called the "Wild Riders" and consists of a bunch of young, hot guys living in a mansion and riding motorcycles. They were all bailed out of jail by a guy named "General Lee" for being car thieves, but he decided to make them into a super elite force working for the side of good. Right...
Sigh. This premise is even more unbelievable than that old porn standard, where the pizza delivery boy shows up at a house full of lingerie wearing sorority girls having a pillow fight and they all want to have sex with him. I couldn't believe what I was reading.
I also couldn't believe how much this vial of deadly virus was tossed around. I yelled "watch what your doing with that virus!" at the book just as much as I yelled "where is your condom?!?"
The bottom line is this: Two types of readers will be interested in this book. One will be someone looking for a steamy romance. The other will be looking for smut. The steamy romance reader will be disappointed, as I never felt anything between these characters other than a sexual relationship. The love story falls flat. The smut reader will be disappointed due to the copious amounts of ridiculous story going on and getting in the way of the sexy times.
I can't recommend this to anyone. Unless you like reading about stolen artifacts with viruses hid inside them. Stolen by some motorcycle guy. Then by all means, run for a copy of this book.

Je suis de plus en plus attirée par les romans mettant en scène des Bikers. Même si je n’en ai lu qu’un seul pour le moment, j’étais curieuse d’en découvrir un peu plus. Jaci Burton semblait alors être une bonne idée. En effet, j’ai eu l’occasion de lire certaines de ses autres romances et après avoir passé un bon moment, j’avais bien envie de tenter une autre de ses séries.
Mac et Lily ont une histoire passée tous les deux, mais cette relation ne s’est pas très bien terminée. 10 ans se sont écoulés et chacun vie sa vie de son côté� Lily est devenue détective privée, loin de son père pour éviter qu’il puisse influencer sa vie d’une quelque manière que ce soit. Quant à Mac, il travaille à présent pour une agence secrète du gouvernement et sa dernière mission, le place tout droit sur la route de la jeune femme. En effet, alors que la jeune femme surveille un musée, notre motard s’introduit et vole un virus caché dans un artefact� Qu’est-il devenu ? Pour qui est-ce ? Peut-elle lui faire confiance ?
C’était une lecture assez sympa et le côté Bikers est finalement assez léger. On se concentre principalement sur le virus et les actions de nos personnages mais aussi surtout la relation intime des deux. Même si j’ai passé un bon moment avec le roman, j’avoue que les scènes hot étaient un peu trop présentes pour moi et finalement j’ai trouvé que l’histoire ne tournaient vraiment qu’autour de ça, ce à quoi j’ai un peu moins adhéré. Je suis cependant curieuse de voir ce que deviendra la suite.
Dans tous les cas la lecture se fait très rapidement et on se prend facilement au style de l’auteur ce qui est toujours très agréable. Reste à voir ce qu’elle nous réservera pour le second tome.

Riding Wild was not at all what I expected, as I found out about 30-something pages in. I was expecting a romantic suspense novel, probably fun, possibly hot, featuring a bad-boy biker. Well, I did get that - absolutely without question - but I also got a lot more than I bargained for. This was not just a hot mainstream novel, but definitely crosses the line into romantica/erotica.
Not that there's anything wrong with that. It just caught me completely by surprise. I guess I should have read some reviews first! Possibly unfairly, my rating was probably influenced by the fact that what I read wasn't what I was expecting. That said, the sex scenes, which were plentiful and not kinky (unless you count backdoor action), were probably the best executed parts of the novel. They were scorching! If that's what you go in expecting, you will probably be well pleased.
As it was, I had some concerns with the overall execution of the suspense plot. In particular, the use of dialogue to set up, and then resolve, the action. Lily is an ex-cop turned P.I. who is performing a routine job checking out night security at the museum, when she witnesses a break and enter resulting in the theft of an artifact. She recognises the thief as none other than Mac Canfield, her one love who left her after taking her virginity some 10 years ago.
Rather than calling it in, she finds herself an unwilling passenger on Mac's Harley after discovering the virus hidden inside the artifact and being shot at by unknown assailants. They begin a road trip to origins unknown as Mac, ex-thief turned covert government operative, is determined to keep his mission a secret and Lily schemes ways in which she can steal the virus from him and turn it over to the authorities.
Trained operatives in a situation where they are trying to move a vial of mass destruction under the most dangerous and covert circumstances would not conduct their telephone conversations specifically using the word virus over and over, particularly when in the vicinity of someone who is openly working against them. At best it would be referred to as 'it' or some other code word. There were also occasions where the dialogue was used to state something fairly obvious that needed no explanation. It made the dialogue unrealistic and jarring, and clearly designed to be explanatory to the reader or move the plot forward.
The following example contains minor spoilers:
Then, in the final denouement, we learn many of the details of the take-down from an explanatory conversation taking place after the fact.
The unnatural (and dare I say, lazy) use of dialogue contributed to my rating far more than my expectations around genre being incorrect. I will still try the next book in the Wild Riders series, , now that I now what to expect.
Can I finish by saying how wonderful it is to see a steamy romance book with a cover that doesn't need to be hidden? I should add a star just for that.

Riding Wild was a good erotic romance that included suspense and action. The book was fast paced and quick to read. The hero and heroine were both likeable characters, and the government group that the hero was affiliated with had several other appealing male members whose stories are sure to be interesting.
When private investigator Lily West is hired to test the security of a museum, she is stunned to see her former high school boyfriend ride up on a motorcycle, break in to the museum, and steal an artifact. Lily is sad to see that Mac Canfield's wild ways have continued, and as she confronts him, the two grapple and argue over the stolen artifact until an unknown assailant shoots at them. Mac and Lily flee the area on his motorcycle, and the over the next few days have the ride of their lives. While Mac moves forward with plans to hand off the dangerous vial contained in the artifact, he and Lily spend a night camping, attend a motorcycle rally, and eventually ride from Chicago to Dallas. Lily immediately realizes that her intense physical attraction to Mac has not lessened over time, and even though she is determined to get the vial out of what she believes are his untrustworthy hands, the two engage in a steamy liaison. When Lily almost escapes with the vial, Mac realizes that he has to tell her the truth - that he is a government agent who breaks in and retrieves items that can't be recovered by other means. Lily immediately believes Mac and accompanies him to the headquarters of the Wild Riders, the agency that employees him. While Mac and Lily travel across the country to get to his agency, it becomes clear that someone is attempting to locate the vial. Lily allies herself with the Wild Riders and helps them to unravel and contain the cirumstances surrounding the dangerous vial. Together again after ten years, Lily and Mac must also confront the feelings that they still have for one another.
This was a very enjoyable book. The suspense portion made the book interesting and fast moving. Riding Wild was very steamy and erotic, but also included a tender romance with characters who were not afraid to reveal their feelings. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

The concept of this story was really, really good, however, I was disappointed with the author's dialogue and I really didn't like how many times the author re-iterated why Mac 'couldn't tell Lily the truth' or why Lily 'couldn't trust Mac'. It got to the point that I was skimming down the page to get 'back to the story'. This series looks promising. I will give the next book a go to see if I like it better. *high hopes*!

Enjoyed this erotic, romantic suspense with a Harley Davidson theme. Toss in rekindled love gone wrong, two young lovers, Lily West and Mac Canfield, running into each other 10 years later, a thief, virus and save the world theme and I've summed up this story. The setting begins in Chicago, but quickly became very mobile--on a Harley.
Mac was the town bad boy and Lily's dad had plans for her to attend Harvard Law School. But the sparks drew them together and Lily's potential future drew them apart. But, Lily always kept a place in her heart for Mac and when they reunite the sparks are still there. Lily didn't follow her father's lifeplan and Mac is not what he seems.
Together, they team up to save the world from the bad guys.
Being the first book in the series, important characters are introduced. :-) Fun, easy read. Nicely written.

Supongo que cuando lo leà hace años me gustó un montón pero después del recorrido de libros por el que he pasado este libro ha sido bastante malo.
Aburrido, predecible, pelÃcula porno escrita, la protagonista una pesada, insoportable, caprichosa, desconfiada que se pone en peligro a si misma y al hombre que declara amar solo por tocar los mismos cojones. De verdad me ha costado tanto acabármelo precisamente por culpa de ella.. no sé si seguiré con la saga aún que sea de otros personajes, ya me lo pensaré

So on the audiobook I listened to, the cover was a dude on a motorcycle. I thought this was going to be a MC book. It's not. I put the important series info below. First a recap...
Lily West (ex-cop turned private investigator) is staking out security for a museum when a biker rides up to steal something. She's shocked to see it's her sexy ex, Mac Canfield (secret ops), who took her virginity eight years ago when she was 18 and then dumped her, therefore breaking her heart. She thinks Mac is there with nefarious intentions and she's determined to stop him. So he decides to take her on a ride across country. They start having sex almost right away, which I totally applaud. Had they not been having sex the entire time, I probably would have quit. Anyway, he eventually tells her that he works for a branch of the government. His super cool secret agent group decides to send Lily in to meet up with the bad guy so they can get the drop on him, and it's so stupid. These guys are the Scooby-Doo gang of detectives then.
There is absolutely NOTHING MC about this series. The writing is very juvenile with the author knowing nothing about military, detectives, missions, etc. You can tell she's never even watched an episode of CSI.
Lastly, the author for some reason won't say the word 'ass'. She'll say p*ssy, cock, etc - but he will only grab her buttocks. Which is totally weird to me. To make matters worse, the narrator pronounces is as "but-ox" with the tone of Forrest Gump. It's really grating. She doesn't have a bad voice otherwise.
I started to give the next book a try but it was already annoying me after the first two chapters.

There are loads of detailed reviews of this book, so I am just going to give my thoughts after reading Riding Wild, which is the 1st book in Jack Burton’s Wild Riders Series.
I struggled a bit to finish this book the first time I started reading it and after a few months decided to continue on to Chapter 2�.I did read chapter 1 before�..and determined to read it to the end this time…which I did.
It’s definitely action packed, fast paced and with a lot and I mean a lot of sex and more sex between the two main characters. In fact, forget the plot, forget the characters and just enjoy the sex scenes…in lots of different positions and different locations!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Character development�.i couldn’t engage with them somehow�.not enough information that would make me get to know and care about them.
I found all that endless riding and more riding across the country�.tedious and just wanted them to get somewhere and resolve all their issues�..the bad boy who got to be someone�.the rich society girl who rebelled and took charge of her life�..
Finally, we get to the destination and meet all those gorgeous guys who work with Mac for some hush-hush, so so secret agency�.I guess I will have to read the next book in the series to find out more about this!!!!!!!
All in all, it’s not exactly an awful book�..in fact by the last page I realized that I had enjoyed the WILD RIDE!!!!!!!!!!

Wooowee this one started out fast, hot, spicy and just keep getter more intense and fabulous with each page. This is a story of lost love found again and the journey they take as they find each other again.
Lily and Mac meet up while he was hijacking a priceless piece of art and Lily was investigating the security system of the museum. The problem is he is not the only one who wants the "art" and Mac and Lily are on the run to keep the "art" safe. He is on the run and he kidnaps her. I really get the impression that she wanted to be kidnapped since the resistance against him was very little. And she was so willing to jump on his bike.
Lily has serious reservations about starting another relationship with Mac due to her belief he is a thief and is so secretive. She cannot resist that he has some good in him and is out to help others. Mac Canfield belongs to a secretive group of men charged with helping the government recover items that could endanger the life of people and are a risk to security. Mac is shocked to see Lily all grown up and turned into a kick ass take no prisoners woman. He kidnaps her in the beginning to keep his cover from being blown but as time passes keeps her with him because he cannot bear to let her go. I recommend reading this book to those who want a fast, hot, spicy, somewhat suspenseful read.

HOT HOT HOT!
Lily West is a former cop from Dallas now living in Chicago working as a P.I. She’s been hired by the local Museum Director to test their night security by breaking in. Just as she is about to do that and prove to her client how bad their security really is, the love of her life rides up on his Harley, breaks in, steals a priceless Egyptian artifact, and is about to ride off into the sunset when Lily pulls her gun on him.
And so the story goes.
This was the first Wild Riders in the series. I honestly expected more. The story line was just a little dull. The sex was great but the "virus" story line was easily forgotten.
I liked being introduced to the other Wild Riders. It got my hopes up for the future books in the series.
So three stars from me for this one. Hoping no#2 in the series redeems its self a little.

I would love to start the next book RIGHT NOW. Burton can sure as hell write a hot love scene. Holy cow. And there's lots of them - perfect for me! (I hate the books that build up to one scene and that's it.) The man is quite the man's man...great hero. Heroine? Spunky and feisty and loving sex - excellent! There isn't much bad I can say about this extremely fun read. I love that they are all sort of connected by the Wild Riders group because you get to see glimpses of the characters already. Excellent! I will definitely read more Jaci Burton because I like her style and sass and humor.
February 10, 2013
Typical Jaci Burton book -- lots of erotica with a bit of a storyline thrown in. She does write nice male characters and this one rides a Harley so one can't complain :) If you are fan of Jaci's work, you'll enjoy this. FYI: this is NOT a book about a Motorcycle Club. If you are looking for something along the lines of Motorcycle Man, Undeniable, Reaper's Property, etc. look elsewhere.

This book was more like 3.5 stars but I rounded up to 4.
The sex and dirty talk was awesome and you could really feel the heat...hoooweee.
But the whole secret agent, stolen virus plot was a little weak. I did however like the intro to the Wild Riders group. It was a good setup for the uber sexy guys who will probably be in the next books.

Ouh c'était bien mauvais! Pourtant, l'intrigue pouvait être intéressante mais comme elle est aussi fine qu'un papier calque, c'est tout de suite moins sympa. En fait, l'histoire est un prétexte à des scènes hot à n'en plus finir et le développement des sentiments est expédié.
Jaci Burton n'est définitivement pas un auteur pour moi en fin de compte.

Riding Wild is the first book in a series. It was a good read but that's it. No suspense or big mystery of who was the bad guys or who you could trust. So I was a little disappointed but I will give the 2nd book in the series a try to see if it gets better.

Good book, but the publisher is charging way too much for an ebook.

A good platform to launch the Wild Riders series
- This one had a lot of heat - creative heat. Sometimes I feel like I'm reading the same phrases on loop when it comes to the sexy times, but I didn't get that with this book. (Incidentally, I've read the whole Wild Riders series, and JB maintains the creativity the whole way through. Yay!)
- I liked how JB tore down and rebuilt the couple's relationship. From what they had back in the day, to what they try to have now, it didn't seem rushed.
- The bad-boy but not really premise. Don't get me wrong, I love mean mofo heroes, but this was a welcome change. JB writes good alpha males, also - I like the way they speak, the way they react, the way they carry themselves. Wunnerful.
- Lily was not a trustworthy heroine, and such a hypocrite. She spent the majority of the story banging Mac and plotting to steal from him and escape, all whilst wringing her hands about whether she can trust her heart to him again. And she was a bit whiny.
- I wasn't a fan of the dialogue to explain the 'big finish.' The takedown, I guess. It felt like an afterthought, or - dare I say it - laziness. To me, it reeked of 'I guess I better explain the gaps in the actual plot now.'
- There were several parts of the story where characters had conversations that no real person would have. It was pretty obvious the whole conversation was to explain to me what was missing from the actual storyline. I don't like being told what's happening - I like to be shown. I love when I organically come to learn what is unfolding, and this book was missing that.
I didn't read romance for a long time while I was devouring non-fiction. This series was like a romance renaissance for me, and I really enjoyed it. My tastes have grown since the first time I read this, so I started skimming it last night to jog my memory. I ended up reading it for 3 hours, which I think is a good sign.

Tout d'abord je tiens a remercier boulevards des passions et milady pour la réception de ce livre.
Malheureusement, cela n'a pas marché avec moi. J'étais intrigué, l'autre série de l'auteur avait de bonnes critiques et je me suis dit pourquoi pas celle-ci avec des motards. J'aime bien le suspense , mais là il est presque absent.
Je ne m'attendais pas à lire un livre où toutes les dix pages, je me retrouvais avec une scène de sexe ( je reste polie). Je suis assez réfractaire à ça, ma tolérance est très limité côté sexe: deux scènes sont suffisantes pour moi après je trouve que c'est fait pour combler le manque de profondeur et de contenu de l'intrigue ou de l'histoire.
Et il n'y a pas que de ce côté -ci que ça pêche. J'ai trouvé les personnages agaçants, tête à claques et j'en passe. Il y a bien Jessie qui m'intéresse, mais vu que je compte ne pas continuer la série et que je m'attends au même contenu à peine brodé, ce sera un gros non. Je trouve franchement dommage que l'intrigue soit aussi mal exploitée et gâchée par cette overdose de sexe inutile. La dernière chose qui m'a mis les nefs c'est le langage des personnages, pourquoi transformer leurs paroles en des choses aussi vulgaires lors des scènes de cul ( plus envie d'être polie ) alors que lors des discussions "normales" ils ont un vocabulaire correct.
Bref, mon ressenti est assez négatif. Avec cette première expérience , je m'arrête dans la découverte de cette auteure. Trop de choses qui ne m'ont pas plus et donné envie d'abandonner ma lecture.

I normally can't stand reading a series out-of-order because some plots are hard to follow ,but with Jaci Burton it was so easy to keep up with the sexy men of the Wild Riders. Riding Wild was a good romance that included suspense and action. The book was fast paced and quick to read.
When private investigator Lily West is hired to test the security of a museum, she is stunned to see her former high school boyfriend, Mac Canfield ride up on a motorcycle, break in to the museum, and steal an artifact. Now Mac is taking Lily along for the ride to get to the bottom of who really wants this vial. Lily allies herself with the Wild Riders and helps them to unravel and contain the circumstances surrounding the dangerous vial. Together again after ten years, Lily and Mac must also confront the feelings that they still have for one another.
This was a very adventurous book. The suspense portion made the book interesting and fast-moving. Riding Wild was very sensual, but also included a passionate romance. I look forward to reading more of Jaci Burton in the future.

Riding Wild
Mac Canfield and Lily West
3/5 Stars
Riding Wild is the first book of Wild Riders series by Jaci Burton. While the series and book alone is action packed with hot bikers and hot scenes, it has way too much sex, that I was unable to deeply be involved in the story and the main characters. I wish the sex scenes and storytelling was even out. Nevertheless, it has a good storyline with a whole new Wild Riders world and happy ending. I am really glad that after so many years Mac and Lily finally find each other.
Favorite Quotes
"I'm not getting possessive, baby. I just think of you as mine. And I don't share." -Mac
"I loved you. I didn't want you to be with me because I was afraid of where I was going, and I didn't want to tell you how I felt, didn't want you to be able to see it in my eyes. If I didn't let you go after I made love to you, if I didn't walk away after that first night, I would have never let you go." -Mac

A good first book in a great series about an undercover government agency that took reckless trouble-making, motorcycle-riding men and turned them into agents, this book features Lily and Mac. After falling in love and giving her virginity to Mac, Lily is shocked when Mac abruptly ends it and leaves without a word. Ten years later, they are thrown back into each other's lives during a museum robbery gone wrong. P.I. Lily can't decide if she trusts that Mac isn't a criminal when they're forced to go on the run. When their physical relationship soons starts up again, everything is complicated, but one thing that's clear is how intensely they still feel about each other, and nothing is over. This is a sweet story with good love scenes, and the introduction to the cast of characters that will make up future books is exciting.

his book has all a girl can dream of: Really hot alpha males on Harleys with a bad boy image to suit this ride.
This book is a good hot contemporary romance with a fast paced plot and a really long Harley ride. The characters are likable but a bit chlichee from time to time. You have the rich girl who wants to escape from Daddies plans and falls in the arms of the local bad boy. Than you have these two yeras or so later. She goit her heart broken in the past and now she eye-witnesses him steeling an artifact out of a museum. You see where this is going? It's not like I didn't enjoy this book but it would be perfect if the story were a bit more. Not sure how to say that right. But one thing I know for sure is that I want to read the next book in this series cuz the Wild Riders are a real hot bunch of alpha males.

¿quien se cree que un vial que contiene un virus capaz de matar a millones de personas es transportado sin ningún tipo de seguridad en las alforjas de una moto durante dÃas? Con tiempo para asistir a una concentración motera (concierto incluido)y varias sexcapades para aliviar la "tensión" de huir de un posible perseguidor porque qué importa que tengan en sus manos un posible apocalipsis biológico?
El recurso para salvar la situación es hacer kilómetros y kilómetros en moto para despistar a los "malos" ¿Que pasa, que no conocen los sistemas de seguimiento? Sin mencionar a la agencia supersecreta que no envÃa a nadie de apoyo ni intenta recuperar el vial para ponerlo a buen recaudo.
Tampoco ayuda que me digan constantemente que la protagonista es lista y aguerrida, cuando en realidad solo piensa con las hormonas y parece más tonta que un zapato...

#1 Wild Riders romantic suspense
Eek! LOL, this book description makes the book sound much better than it actually is.
It's great for "Calgon, Take Me Away" reading. The depth of the book is similar to the depth of a piece of paper. Lots of action, tho!
Lots of things just don't make sense -- Lily spends ONE night with Mac ten years ago, and hasn't seen him since. When she meets up with him again -- actually, he kidnaps her and rides off with her on his Harley -- after a day or two, Lily is trying to build trust with him. *L*
But for mindless, cotton candy entertainment, it's OK.
The Wild Riders (a secret group of guys who help the government and ride motorcycles or drive muscle cars) ... to me they seem to have the mentality of high school boys.
