THIS WICKED RUSH (Wild Rush Book 1)
“You know what I like, Caitlin. You know I want you to beg for it.”
Gabe
I’ve never been the kind of person to give up on something I want. Now, I refuse to take no for an answer. I want this girl. I want to help her, and sleep with her, and steal things with her, and make her laugh the way she did right that night in her friend's car. We’re going to have a summer neither of us will ever forget, and by the time we go our separate ways, she’ll have enough money to go to college, and I will have had her…every way I want her.
Caitlin
I’m starting to forget why it’s a bad idea to get in any deeper with a boy who is a walking, talking contradiction. A boy who has a taste for breaking the law, a wicked way with words, and a confident touch that leaves no doubt he’s way more experienced than I am. I’ve spent my life putting aside my own needs and cleaning up after other people’s mistakes. Now, I want to make a mistake of my own.
I know I’m playing with fire, but for Gabe I'm willing to beg to be burned.
THIS WICKED RUSH is an edgy, sexy, boundary-pushing read intended for readers over the age of seventeen. The book features graphic love scenes, violence, strong language, and thieves in love. Read at your own risk.
"A steamy, high-octane love story that will have you wondering how far you'd go if you stopped playing by the rules. And may even make you want to step over the lines.” –New York Times Bestselling Author, Lauren Blakely

Amber's Review:
4.50 Sexy and Twisty Star Review by Amber Presley Boyd
After reading One Wild Night, the prequel to This Wicked
Rush I knew that this was going to be unlike any of the books I had read from
Jessie Evans before (and if you haven’t read it I urge you to go get it for
FREE and see how Gabe and Caitlin’s adventures begin)! This is not your
ordinary romance, but man does it keep your attention. I will tell you up front
that there is a cliffhanger and that Jessie will be continuing Gabe and
Caitlin’s story in the upcoming One Perfect Love. I’m not going to reveal any
spoilers either, but I will say that this story took me by surprise and there
was laughter, suspense and tears.
“Anything can be done with people who love you by your side.”
Caitlin Cooney is a fighter, a survivor and a nurturer. She
has taken on the responsibility of raising not only her three younger brothers
but her young niece, leaving a scholarship to an exclusive prep school during
her junior year to work two jobs to support the family. She doesn’t date, she
rarely does anything for herself and most of the time she is more stressed out
than someone twice her age trying to figure out how to keep a roof over their
heads, food in their bellies and the young kids out of the system. But despite
all these hardships and the support of a couple of really good friends, Caitlin
is a bit scared and a bit lonely even if she won’t completely admit it. So when
Gabe, who she knew in high school, and she share one wild night and he offers
one crazy proposition things in Caitlin’s world change in unseen ways.
Gabe Alexander is an ass. He is a player. He is everything
rich, spoiled and a total contradiction of it all behind that façade. Gabe has
had it all handed to him all his life, everything but feeling wanted and loved.
Though that is not how Gabe presents himself and not what he thinks he wants he
knows he wants Caitlin. What starts as him trying to exact some justice on some
scumbags his defense attorney father has gotten off, it becomes oh so much more
as Caitlin becomes first his partner in crime and then “his everything”.
“…none of us truly know what we’re capable of until we’re put in an
impossible situation, until we step over the line and realize things aren’t so
very different on the other side after all…”
Caitlin and Gabe are sizzling together. They feed off each
other and while Gabe brings out the fierceness in Caitlin, being with Caitlin
brings out the caring and wanting for more that Gabe professes he never wants.
They are supposed to only be together for the summer and by the end of it go
their separate ways, Gabe back to school and Caitlin with enough financial
security to stop killing herself and be able to go to college. However the best
laid plans and all that. As much as Caitlin wants to resist Gabe she can’t and
hasn’t been able to since that first night, and maybe just maybe Gabe wants
more from Caitlin than just a “fake girlfriend or a partner in crime”. What
they find together is exhilarating, thrilling and scary as hell but it just
might be the best love that either of them never knew they needed. Can’t wait
to see what Jessie does to me in the follow up to this one because TWR was just
that a complete and total rush of emotions!!
About the author:
Jessie Evans gave up a career as an international woman of mystery to write the sassy, Southern romances she always wanted to read.
She's married to the man of her dreams, and together they're raising a few adorable, mischievous children in a tree house in the boonies. She grew up in rural Arkansas, spending summers running wild, being chewed by chiggers, and now appreciates her home in a chigger-free part of the world even more.
When she's not writing, Jessie enjoys playing her dulcimer (badly), sewing the worlds ugliest quilts to give to her friends, going for bike rides with her house full of boys, and wandering the woods, glass of wine and camera both in hand, on the lookout for Bigfoot.
