(MY REVIEW) 

I have come to love the way Wild makes me feel. I'm mean seriously she makes me pissed, happy, sad, and just plain ole emotional. It's great. I read to escape my hectic crazy life, and to escape to something so….beautiful it's beyond heartwarming. 

I love how Wild doesn't do the romance where it's well just plain cookie cutter I guess you can say. You know the kind where boy meets girl and they fall in love and live happily ever after. NO! Yes, there is a boy and a girl…but it's not all perfect. It's real, and beyond believable. It makes you feel so damn much for these characters. Your rooting that things will work out, yet at the same time wondering what would happen if it didn't. There is drama, there is angst, there is heartache. It's truly remarkable, and to be honest I can't get enough of her writing. 

Her descriptions are so realistic! Not to mention the sex scenes are soooo fucking hot! I mean they make me all hot and bothered. That's saying a lot, because a lot of writers out there make the sex scenes seem so damn unrealistic and it will have you wanting to browse over every last one of them. Not with these. I would actually savor them, and read over again. I'm kind of a perv, so just excuse that part HAHA. I just honestly have nothing bad to say. 

Once you start reading, you won't want to stop. Everything is smooth, and blends in perfectly. You will loose track of time. I have several alarms that go off during the day, and to be honest I would snooze them…or cut them off and continue to read. Totally forgetting what I was suppose to be doing. I'm even kinda sad to say my son had to walk home from the bus stop by himself because I was too engrossed in the book. LOL. Ooops. Just goes to show it's amazing. 

Cam….God I don't even know where to begin with this man. First i'll start off by saying that he reminds me of my husband. Which made me of course swoon even more over this man. My husband is military…served his time in afghanistan. Seen things that I'm sure he wishes he hasn't wanted to see. Done things he had to do to stay alive. Come home and tried to pick up the pieces with me and our kids. It's not easy to come back after 11 months and think things are going to be perfect. It takes getting use to, and it's kinda the same with Cam. He came home after serving his time, and tried to start his life over. Something was just always missing. The woman he left behind 5 years earlier. Not to mention my husband is a gym rat and has so much muscle I don't even know what to do with it all. 

I felt a lot for this couple. To be honest Maya comes with a past, one that she kept from Cam. We all have a past. Hers is so sad. I too have my own past. When I told my husband about everything…lets just say he wasn't too happy. You could see the man wanted to punch through a wall, hell even punch the people that have hurt me. It was sad, yet at the same time heartwarming for me to see, because it showed me how much he loves me. He shows me everyday that he will do anything to protect me and our family. That's exactly what Cam does for Maya. He wants to do nothing but protect her, yet at the same time she needs to let him in for that to be possible. When Maya does let him in, it's like an eye opener. All the questions he had are answered, and he's finally able to understand who she is a person. Even though she's still trying to figure out who she is herself. She's lived her life trying to achieve so much, to make a better life for herself and her mom. However it's like no matter what she does it's never good enough. My heart broke for her. Yes, I had my moments where I wanted to smack some sense into her and say, "Wake up, you have a great man in front of you, one of these days he might not be waiting for you." The kicker is though, I have a feeling he would of waited forever for her. God…See I just can't stop raving about how great it is. 

I'm starting to write my own book hahaha. So let me wrap this up. It's a read I would highly recommend. So, if your looking for a great book to dive into over the weekend then this is the one for you. I wouldn't recommend starting before bed, because you'll be a zombie in the morning from you staying up all night to read. You won't want to put it down. 

Thank you Wild for another amazing read. You never disappoint. I look forward to reading more from you in the upcoming future. <3 

I rate On My Knees 5+ Stars. 

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

 

USA Today bestselling author, Meredith, Wild picked up her first romance novel at the tender age of twelve. Shortly after, she put pen to word processor and made her first attempt at writing a love story inspired by those she so enjoyed reading well past her bedtime. 

Her dream of writing took a back seat to college, parenthood and eventually entrepreneurship, which led her into the fast-paced high tech industry. With enough life experience to fill a few lifetimes, she now devotes her hours to writing contemporary adult romance with a hint of kink.

When she isn’t writing or mothering, Meredith can be found sunbathing with an adult beverage.
