People say I’m ferocious. Wild. Dangerous.

They’re right. That’s why I live on an island alone.

The jungle is my home. My personal prison. 

Until she arrived.

The moment her helicopter crashed on my land, everything changed.

She’s the only survivor … And I’m keeping her locked up in a pit.

It’s been too long since I last touched a woman, especially one so beautiful.

It makes me hunger for her.

I want her … So I’ll keep her …

And I’ll make her mine.

Excerpt

When she hands me the flask back, I place it on the table and go back to the box, fishing out a few pieces of jerky. The moment she sees me holding them, her face contorts. I still attempt to give it to her. With a smile too.

Still, she shakes her head at the meat.

What is wrong with this woman?

Why won’t she eat?

I even gave her a smile and everything. What else does she want from me?

Does she not want to live at all or what?

I push it against her lips and say, “Eat.”

“No …” she mumbles, leaning back as far as possible.

I growl, “Eat.”

Her eyes dart up to mine, so I gaze at her with equal ferocity. I haven’t met a lot of women, most of them were just as scared of me as she was, but none of them were this fiery. This one’s gutsy. I like it.

What I don’t like is how she keeps refusing to eat. She has to eat something.
Otherwise, she’ll die. “Eat,” I say again, losing my patience.

I hold it up to her mouth and wait until she opens it. She takes the tiniest of tiny nibbles and chews on it with a face that reminds me of the ones I saw before I was on this island … back when I still thought I could adapt to their world.

My face darkens as I watch her chew with reluctance until she swallows and coughs immediately after.

I nod and hold out the meat again.

“No, no more, please,” she says, her voice croaky.

I grunt and place the jerky on the nightstand beside the bed. Frustrated, I turn around and leave the hut, slamming the door shut behind me.

I wish I understood women, but I don’t. I don’t fucking understand any person, at all. 

That’s why I live on my own, and having her here only reminds me of that fact.

Maybe I should’ve gotten rid of her, after all. It would’ve saved me the trouble of looking out for her, feeding her, giving her my bed.

Goddammit. 

I grasp the ax from the box outside and begin chopping wood. It’s the only thing I can do when my mind is going in circles. I need to get this shit off my mind and focus on work. Things I can actually fix, instead of … women.

Why do females have to be so complicated?

I gave her food, and she’s not even thankful.

She won’t eat, she didn’t thank me for rescuing her, and she keeps running away.

I sigh and ram the ax into the block, letting out all my anger on the wood.

I refuse to give up. I made my choice, and I’m sticking with it. I will just have to tame the girl.

One way or another, she will eat, and she will adjust. Maybe in time, she’ll learn to appreciate the island … and maybe even start cooking for me.

Yeah, that’d be nice.

Her, me, a spit-roast on the beach, and a fur blanket to cuddle on.

My mouth waters at the thought.

Maybe this girl destroyed some of the jungle, but it doesn’t have to all be bad.

She could be my woman.

That’d definitely be nice.

Clarissa Wild is taking this Caged series to amazing places!! I loved Caged and didn’t think it could get any better but Locked was just utterly perfection! What would you do for true love? That is the overall lingering question in Locked. Can you imagine being Jules and headed to an uncharted island to study plant life, and after a crash killing everyone but her, she finds the island isn’t as uncharted as originally thought? The island already houses a special inhabitant and he wants to keep her all for himself.

I don’t want to go into Lock’s story too much. I loved him and totally felt for him. He isn’t the animal, the monster, he believes himself to be… otherwise, why isolate yourself? He’s so much more than he thinks and he and Jules really relate on such a primal way. Wild always takes her readers on a wild ride… one that doesn’t fit the “normal” or every other book out there. They are so different. She opens your mind and makes you think. I love the fast-paced, adventure type feel but there was also so much heat between Lock and Jules… it’s really animalistic feeling!

Loved the dual POV storyline. Wild’s writing continues to intrigue and pull me in from her first chapter. I’m really hoping this series comes to audio… I can only imagine the strong, fierce voices of Caged and Locked. 

I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I would leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that… my opinions.
