I borrowed this book from the library
Summary:
Beatrice Edmund is a proper English lady who has been tucked
away in a Scottish castle with her grandmother for years because of her
grandfather’s wishes. When her long dead
cousin, Leo, shows up with his new bride, Ella, for a visit they convince her to
travel to India with them. In India she
finds all the adventure a lady could possibly image and more.
Colin Fitch is Ella’s cousin whom they meet in India. He and
Bea do not hit it off well when they first meet, but circumstances thrust them
together for a week when they are separated from Leo and Ella.
My Thoughts:
I didn’t really care for this book and have regretted
requesting it at the library. It was a
well written story, but I didn’t care for the mystical elements of the
book. I was not able to lose myself in
the book because the mystical part made it all seem unrealistic, but it had some
good elements.
I gave Wild Desire two stars and a grade of D because it was
filled with adventure. Bea and Colin are
chased by shady characters and the reader is taken to isolated temples
throughout the jungles of India. The descriptions of the women’s sari and the
castle’s were vivid. If you enjoy
romance with a bit Mystic atmosphere I recommend Wild Desire by Lori Brighton.
If you don’t, then stay away from it, but it does make a good beach book.
