Wild by Alex Mallory

Genre: YA Contemporary Romance/Tarzan Retelling

Publisher: HarperTeen

Release Date: July 8, 2014




Goodreads Synopsis:



The forest is full of secrets, and no one understands that better than Cade. Foraging, hunting, surviving— that’s all he knows. Alone for years, Cade believes he’s the sole survivor. At least, until he catches a glimpse of a beautiful stranger…

Dara expected to find natural wonders when she set off for a spring break camping trip. Instead, she discovers a primitive boy— he’s stealthy and handsome and he might be following her. Intrigued, Dara seeks him out and sets a catastrophe in motion.

Thrust back into society, Cade struggles with the realization that the life he knew was a lie. But he’s not the only one. Trying to explain life in a normal town leaves Dara questioning it.

As the media swarm and the police close in, Dara and Cade risk everything to get closer. But will the truth about Cade’s past tear them apart?

A YA Tarzan retelling.



Excerpt:

“Rubbing his thumb against hers, Cade kept his eyes forward. He marched like he was going to jail. Stiff steps, shoulders blocked. His jaw was hard and set, but he answered her gently. ‘I’ll be close to you.’” (ARC, pg. 209)
