Rhys ?

Talk about a palate cleanser! This book served it purpose after several heavy reads. I don’t know how she does it, but Elsie Silver has once again cracked my chest open and poured in the softest kind of love. Wild Side is raw, emotional, and achingly beautiful. This book isn’t just about romance, it’s about healing, about finding softness in someone when the world has been nothing but hard. Tabitha is fierce and resilient who’s always been in survival mode. And then there’s Rhys. Gruff, stoic, emotionally closed off, but underneath it all? A man made of pure gold. The way he loves, the way he sees her and Milo, the way he silently takes on pain just so she doesn’t have to? I’m not okay. Their dynamic had me hooked with forced proximity, marriage of convenience, all that delicious tension. But what really got me was the quiet love. The love that isn’t flashy or loud, but steady and devastatingly tender. If you're looking for a romance that feels real, that hits deep and heals while it hurts, Wild Side is the one. No lies, Rhys is just perfect ??.
