Review ~ Untaming Lily Wilde (Wilde, #1) by Olivia Fox

Reviewed by Donna ~ 4.5 Stars

I totally loved this book, it was one of those reads that you couldn’t put down. I was laughing and crying in parts.

Lily Wilde has only ever had one boyfriend, they have been living together and have been partners for 8 years. New Years Eve, surprising him at the office she overhears him on the phone to his girlfriend, turns out he is about to dump her and has been cheating on her for ages. Confronting him, Lily tells him to pack his bags.

Lily decides that she is going to reinvent herself and in doing so comes face to face with Seb. Seb is rich, married, extremely HOT but also has deviances of his own and owns a sex club. Well when I say club he has kinky parties at his house…his house is a massive country estate and we are talking high end clients that pay a lot of money for a good time and anonymity.

Lily decides to keep a diary and gives herself a bucket list of sorts detailing things that she is going to do to give herself this magical makeover and one of those things is to broaden her sexual experiences.

Working at the setting up of one of Seb’s parties, Seb makes his interest known to Lily and soon she is sucked into his world and attends one of the parties as a guest. But is all as it seems with Seb?

I will say, although I loved Seb, I found him to be a bit of a pushover. I would have thought he would have had more backbone, but he was a bit wishy washy at times. I seriously wanted to batter him in places. You wanted to scream at the kindle during some of the scenes with his “wife”. He does eventually man up, but then he does something else that totally aggravates me. While I could sort of understand his reasoning, it didn’t help their relationship at all.

You do get engrossed in this story, so much so I hardly high lighted a thing, which is unheard of!!

This book does contain some very hot sex scenes, BDSM, threesomes, a bit of F/F, but it never comes across as gratuitous. Also, some of the side characters were a bit annoying at times, but we can’t love everybody!

I can’t wait to read the next in the series, I need to know what is in store for Seb and Lily.
