Nicole and Dana Newcombe are identical twins that couldn’t be more different.  Nicole is a famous supermodel always out for a good time.  Dana is a quiet and bookish scientist, happy to fade into the background.  Trying to prove a point, Nicole ends up stealing Dana’s boyfriend and then rubs salt in the wound by inviting Dana to their wedding.  Dana should probably be angry with her sister, but then there was that whole steamy monkey sex in an elevator thing with the other Wilder brother, Colt, at the time.

Suz deMello certainly knows how to put a little humor into her romances and THE WILDER BROTHER takes that humor, a bit of adventure and a lot of steamy sex and turns out a really enjoyable little romance.  From a chemical peel gone bad to an ill-fitting dress to a drunken bridesmaid, the hilarity just keeps coming.

The book moves at such a quick pace that it is almost confusing as both twins go from crazy ideas, to even crazier actions before reality comes crashing down around their pretty ears.  And then there’s the wedding, when things get crazy all over again.

The differences between the four main characters are what make this book so much fun to read.  It is easy to see how the two more obvious couples can find happiness, but so much more fun when the seating chart gets switched around and they end up with partners they would have never expected.  But perhaps the most interesting aspect of the story is that the meat of the story happens after all that, when the honeymoon is over and done with.  That aspect of the story is unusual in a romance and really causes the book to stand out in this reader’s opinion.

Suz deMello’s THE WILDER BROTHER is pure pleasure to read and sure to leave a smile on your face.  If you are looking for a spot of laughter with your romance, then it is time to take a walk on the Wild side with Ms. deMello and THE WILDER BROTHER.
