Publisher's summary

From New York Times best-selling author Samantha Towle comes an unexpected love story between two unlikeliest of people....

A new town. A new identity. Pregnant and alone. And far away from a past that can never find me.

River Wild. Moody. Sullen. Jerk. And my new neighbor.

I have no interest in befriending River. And he definitely doesn’t want to be befriended by me.

Then, he helps me rescue an abandoned dog. And that day, I see something in his eyes that reflects back in my own. Sadness. Pain. Loneliness.

I know all of those things well.

An unwanted and unexpected friendship that somehow works. Then, without warning, it turns into something more.

River and I both have our secrets, and that’s okay. Because I understand him. And he understands me.

For the first time in my life, I have something I never thought I would have - happiness.

But happiness isn’t forever. Not for people like me.

Especially not when my past is waiting just around the corner, ready to come and take it all away.

Awesome Book!!

This story was excellent. It had a little of everything. The only thing I didn’t love was the female narrator. The story made up for it.

Tragic and Beautiful

River Wild was tragic. It starts off tragic and nearly ends tragically as well, but there is so much beauty in between. I loved how Carrie was so supportive and accepting of River, despite his faults. These two both had really traumatic and damaging histories and so watching their story unfold was absolutely beautiful. It was a super slow burn while these two built the foundation of their relationship through being there for each other, and working through their individual traumas despite the fact that their pasts were eerily similar.

Oh my heart

This is a heartbreaking yet beautiful story. I loved Carrie and River and how they were able to learn to love and live again. Definitely will listen to again. Narration was wonderful as well.

Maybe an advisory on abuse issue

I thought it was good I say an advisory because how she writes on abuse is so well done having worked in this field I just think people who may be triggered need to know before they read she wrote very well on the subject so good on her please write more the more information out there the better
