I loved it

Drive Me Wild was my first Julie Kriss novel and I loved it. This second chance romance between the cop's daughter and the boy from the wrong side of the tracks was steamy, sweet yet had a little angst, that all served to keep you hooked on the pages of the story. While I loved Luke, Emily took some getting used to as I did not like her attitude at first. Although short, the story was well written and layered with an amazing cast of secondary characters. This page-turner was a fantastic read and I would highly recommend it to all lovers of Contemporary romance.
The audiobook was narrated by Joe Arden and Erin Mallon. Together they did an excellent job with the narration. They had great pace and timing and really brought the story to life. I enjoyed listening to them narrate this novel.

Bad boy with a heart

Emily Parker is back in town and everything seems to be turned upside down in her world. The one thing that feels like home is Luke Riggs. It has been 8 years but those feelings are still there and Emily needs Luke but there's has been a hidden relationship for many reasons and she isn't ready to be public about it yet.

Luke Riggs is back in town to run his father's body shop business. Little did he know there was things going on that could land him in jail right along beside his dad. His only concern though is Emily, she's all that matters.

Joe Arden and Erin Mallon are fantastic in this audiobook. I love listening to them and they kept my attention from start to finish.

I loved this audiobook and I highly recommend it.

Second chance romance, both captivating & steamy!

I really enjoyed this story about Emily and Luke! A bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks and a police officer’s daughter. Such a good, forbidden type romance story with a layer of second chance romance.

I adored both main characters, heck even all the side characters! I loved the relationship that Em and Luke had in the past and rekindled almost a decade later. Their chemistry was off the charts hot!!!!!!

I can’t wait to read more books about the Riggs boys!

Luke Riggs.....

Give me a good second chance romance and I am hooked! Julie Kriss, where have you been? I loved this first book in the Riggs Brothers series. It's a little bit of Romeo and Juliet, as we have Emily and Luke from different sides of the tracks and it's just not suitable for them to be together. In high school though, this couple had their secret relationship, and now years later, with trouble on the horizon, will they get their second chance? What great characters Kriss has developed. Four brothers, each completely different, with this book focused on Luke. I love books that have history, and it's not always an easy path. Great first book of the series!

Narrated by Joe Arden and Erin Mallon, it's easy to get lost in this story. Arden as Luke is a perfect fit, giving him a little edginess, yet his voice has that softness so we can easily fall for the good in him. Mallon gives Emily that energy, the spunky, secretive sister, yet shows the vulnerability as her true feelings show. Loved this dynamic team's interpretation of the book.

Brilliant listen!!!

I have absolutely loved this audio. The story is interesting and fast moving. The action between Emily and Luke is hot and and I loved that Julie Kris's did not shilly shally around filling us in with their background together and moving the action along. I loved learning about each of the Riggs brothers, their banter and behaviour together. The characters are so interestingand I was really drawn to them. The voice actors, Erin Mallon and Joe Arden just knocked the whole thing out of the park and I was reluctant to leave their company as they brought Emily and Luke totally to life. 5 stars all the way! 😍♥️💖🔥🔥

Luke and Emily!

After being away for eight years Emily has returned to her hometown to help out her sister and the last person that she expected to see was Luke, the only man she has ever loved.

Luke has returned to town after eight years as well as with his dad in jail he and his brothers need to not only run his business but make it honest as well.

Emily and Luke were together when they were 18 however she was the daughter of a cop and he was the bad boy from the wrong side of town. Their attraction is back stronger than ever but must their feelings for each other always be a dirty secret or this time around are they able to show everyone how they feel about each other?

I really enjoyed the narration of this story and thought that the narrators were a perfect choice for this story. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

What a wild ride?

What a wild ride?

I read this book in conjunction to the audio book and it was delightful. The narrator's captured the essence of the character so perfectly and kept me very intrigued to keep on reading on.

Emily was a tough characters. Someone that at first might be difficult to like as a result of how she behaves. However when you see through her shield you see what she's really like. She's vulnerable just like everyone else.

Luke Riggs, is another tough characters, it's that reason why him and Emily get along so well. They both don't really fit into the shells people have put them into and so by being together they can be themselves and not worry about what anyone else is going to think.

He grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, literally. Him and his brothers have been given a bad reputation before even allowing others the chance to know them. However Emily doesn't care about that. Sure it makes things more scandalous but it's the connection she only cared about.

Luke is back in town after eight years to run his dad's auto shop. Emily is back to run her sisters hairdressers. After eight years of not seeing one another they're back together and what was left as unfinished business when they were 18 is now opened back up.

It a good story line with a but of suspense, intensity, and suspicious activity. However it balances perfectly with the sweet and sexy moments.

A must read or listen.

A bad boy never looked so good

Drive Me Wild is the first book of the Riggs Brother series and it is narrated by the lovely duo Erin Mallon and Joe Arden. I’ve never really been a fan of second-chance romances, but this one just might have changed my mind. First off, I loved the characters. Emily and Luke are literally from two different sides of the tracks, but the chemistry was HOT. I loved that Luke acknowledges that they don’t exactly go together, yet he fights to prove he is worth it to not only her and her mother, but also to himself. The narration just made it so much better. They brought the entire story to life and made me love Emily and Luke that much more. I am so ready to push play on book 2. If you love second-chance romance and even if you don’t, give this one a try because it won’t disappoint.
