Chasing the Wild by Elliott Rose

2.0

Did not finish book. Stopped at 56%.
"Chasing the Wild" was lackluster at best. I tried to push through it for four days, hoping it would get better—thinking I would grow to love the characters or at least see some character development, especially from the male main character. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen!

Neither character exhibited any signs of emotional attraction toward each other. Initially, I brushed this off, but now that I'm halfway through the book, all I know is that they desperately want to be together physically. The reasons behind their reluctance to act on this desire aren't convincing either.

Having decided to DNF (did not finish) this book, I’m uninterested in finding out what happens at the end; it feels like I already know where it's headed. I wouldn’t label this book as smutty or even spicy—I'm not sure what it is, but it's not that. While the few intimate scenes I read were okay, they felt a bit underwhelming.
