✯Review ✯Wildcard: Volume Three (Wildcard #3) by Missy Johnson

Synopsis

She’s hiding something from me and I need to know what it is. 
I’ve done so many things I never thought I’d do for this woman and it kills me that she’s lying to me.
How can I make her see that she can trust me?
Do I want to know the truth?

Sometimes things are easier when they’re left unsaid…



 ✯✯4 Wild Ryder Stars!!✯✯



What an ending to a great series.This is the last book in the novella series. It was a quick read like the first 2 books were. This book still has lies. Has answers.Still has Ryder. It has a more serious stuff going on. Yup, def liked it!!

This picks up right where book 2 left off. Ryder and Scarlett have both made deals with a devil to keep Tony out of their lives forever. But, in true Ryder and Scarlett fashion they didn't tell the other one what they were doing before they did it.I swear will the lying with these 2 ever end!!

Now, of course that's not the worst part. Poor Jake is in the hospital again. He will have to stay there until him & Scarlett go to London for his treatment. Scarlett is a wreck and I don't blame her. Ryder is back in London dealing with the drama that comes along with being Ryder!!

Ryder gets a call from Calle's father asking him to be her personal trainer. While he's not sure if being a coach to someone is what he wants to do in his life. He agrees to train her when she gets to London for her 1st professional match at Wimbledon. I was actually looking forward to Calle being back. Her & Ryder fight and have their own tennis match of words being thrown back & forth. And, they always had me laughing. Even though Calle tried to come across as a bad-ass. She does respect what Ryder has to say to her. Yet, she doesn't and won't say out loud.But, even when he thinks she's not paying attention to him. She is!

Scarlett and Jake are in London for the treatment but 1st. They meet his family.Everything should be great. But, again this is Scarlett & Ryder. Both of their secrets are eating them up inside.They both are acting funny. And, it obvious to the other. But, they are scared to really find out what's going on. Because, they don't want to loose the other one.

Every time Ryder did something it was to protect Scarlett & Jake. He's realized that for the first time in his life he is in love. Scarlett and Jake mean the world to him. He's also learning that training Calle is something he is finding rewarding. Could he do this full time? Was tennis something of his past?

Scarlett loves Jake & Ryder more then anything. But, when she's doing stuff and keeping it from Ryder it's not the same as Ryder's reasoning. She does things bc she's afraid if Ryder knows things he'll hate her & leave her. Scarlett takes the selfish way of doing things. And, that totally pissed me off. Esp when Ryder did a 110% turnaround for her and Jake. And, she never asked him too.

There's a lot of decisions that will have to be made when Jake is done with his treatment. Does Scarlett & Jake stay in London and Ryder go back to playing tennis? Does Ryder move to the United States and give up tennis to become a trainer/coach? It's a lot to figure out. But, they must get passed all the lies and truly trust 100%

This is a series you'll want to read. It's a quick fast read, very very hot, drama full. It doesn't leave you wanting anything. You won't be disappointed!!

✯Review ✯Wildcard: Volume Two (Wildcard #2) by Missy Johnson

Synopsis:
I’m so fucking pissed off that she would do this to me. 

I really thought we had something, but instead, I’m left feeling like an idiot. 

All I want to do is go back home and forget the last few weeks ever happened, but I’m stuck in this stupid country teaching tennis to spoiled rich kids who care less about playing than I do. 

All I want to do is forget about her. 

But things are never that easy, are they?

  ✯✯4 Even Wilder Stars!!✯✯


This book picked up exactly where book 1 left off. Ryder goes to the US to surprise the women he's fallen for. Just to basically get kicked in the gut. How does he plan to handle it? I was dying to see that.

Ryder is stuck doing charity work. He is stuck helping this spoiled teeny booper rich girl. She doesn't hold back on how she feels about being there & being with him. It's hysterical! Ryder does what he does best he tries to get Scarlett out of his mind. He does what he does best. Goes out & picks up the 1st girl. That doesn't work out so well. Because, she's all in his head and heart. Ryder has never felt like this about a woman before. And, it scares the hell out of him.

In this book we finally get Scarlett POV!! Yes, and I loved it because after book 1 I wanted into her head. She def reasons of why she kept things to herself. I would of too. But, she can't get Ryder out of her head. After a few times she gets him to finally listen to her.

Scarlett will do anything to keep Jake safe and healthy. She'll do anything to keep his dad away. He's one evil S.O.B and he'd do anything to ruin Scarlett!!

Ryder & Scarlett get into a nice routine. Work, hang out all night. They really are getting closer & closer everyday. But, there is 1 big secret hanging over them. Scarlett is doing everything to fix her problem by not getting Ryder involved or even him finding out. Ryder wished Scarlett trusted him enough to tell him what was going on.

Ryder eventually finds out Scarlett's secret. He wants to help her & she says no. Not shocking. Now, they both take things into their own hands. Now, I'm dying for the last  book in this series!! 

I loved this book as much as book 1. The only thing I didn't like. There wasn't enough Jake!! But, I love how we saw a softer more caring side of Ryder. He really grew into a man. Scarlett still has a major secret she's keeping. But, I loved seeing her do anything to protect her son, Ryder & herself. She's a strong woman. I'm dying for book 3!!
