A Novella

Forever Wild

Lover of Romance 

From the international bestselling author of The Simple Wild comes Forever Wild, a novella that continues the story of Calla’s journey to the Alaskan wild and a life she never imagined for herself. The holiday season is upon Calla and Jonah, and with the mistletoe and gingerbread comes plenty of family drama. Jonah is bracing himself for two weeks with a stepfather he loathes, and while Calla is looking forward to her mother and Simon’s arrival, she dreads the continued pressure to set a date for their wedding … in Toronto. Add in one bullheaded neighbor’s unintentional meddling and another cantankerous neighbor’s own family strife, and Christmas in Trapper’s Crossing will be anything but simple.

Forever Wild is the novella that features our star couple Calla and Jonah. This is a short read that can easily be read in one sitting. This is where we get a beautiful intro into them continuing into their lives and embracing their HEA. They are going into December and getting ready for a Christmas celebration, Jonah’s parents are coming to town, and sparks fly between the families and neighbors. We see our pair celebrate their wedding and even more. I absolutely LOVED this short and sweet novella. This is pure joy in this book and I indulged very easily. I was more than thrilled to see this holiday novella and how endearing it is. Calla and Jonah are just perfect in this book, they have worked through most of the kinks in their relationship and we just see a solid celebration with them and the people they love the most. And I never mind reading Christmas books in the spring or summer, there is something about them just brings a charm to the season we are currently in. If you have loved the first two books, this novella will be the ticket for you. I can’t wait for the fourth book where we get Marie’s story. Overall I found Forever Wild to be a superb finale into this couple who have won my heart with their sizzling chemistry, enduring strength, and continuous growth. SIMPLY CHARMING!

this was super cute! i wasn’t a super big fan of the second book, but this novella definitely redeemed the series a lot for me!

Review to come very soon, but just know that I’m bawling right now.

It's a novella, and you need to go into remembering that. That not everything is going to be fully explained, and it will feel like some things are skimmed over. However, K.A. Tucker gives us Jonah, Calla, and the whole gang in a way I didn't know we needed! Gosh, this story is a whirlwind of emotions from start to finish. 

I thought I wouldn't cry while reading this. Typically, I start bawling between the 70-80% in most of her stories. I got past the 80% mark, and I thought I was totally safe from crying...BUT THEN I GOT TO 90%, AND THE LAST 10% OF THE NOVEL WRECKED ME HARDCORE. I was sobbing and laughing and sobbing. 

10 out of 10 recommended.

The perfect Christmasy romance! If your a fan of the Simple wild books you will love this one. I loved getting to be back in the world with Calla and Jonah and seeing all my favorite side characters, even grumpy Roy. This novella made me love Jonah even more than I did and we got to see some special moments between him, Calla and their friends and family. If you haven't read The Simple Wild get on it because you don't want to miss out on this story full of humor, romance, and overall good feels! 4.5/5 stars! 
*Thank you to the author for providing me with an arc in exchange for an honest review*

Now, it’s Jonah’s fearless confidence that makes my blood race. His unwavering loyalty that makes me search for him in every room. His untamed passion that makes me weak at the knees. It’s everything—inside and out, good and bad—that makes up this wild man’s heart." 

Never in my life have I been so excited for a novella... and I wanted more. We return to our small Alaskan town with some of our favorite characters, and Calla and Jonah.
This is the perfect holiday "warm and fuzzy" book you didn't know you needed. 
It felt like I was looking out of a beautiful cabin home at my frozen lake at Christmas time... waiting for Jonah's plane to land once more.

Thank you KA Tucker for giving us a little glimpse into the HEA of Jonah and Calla... and honestly I wish there was more. more wedding details, more future plans... honestly I could read about them argue about paint color and be 100% happy.

My only regret is I can't read this whole series again for the first time 😭.

To my girls who love Jonah, he's back and he's still the Yeti❤️.

"When I hear the buzz of a plane overhead, I like to think it’s Wren Fletcher, doing what he loves most, flying high over the mountains, over the land he loved so deeply. He just doesn’t need to land anymore."

A teeny, tiny novella continuing Calla and Jonah’s story during the Christmas holiday season as they navigate through some family drama, juggle the responsibilities they have to their parents and to each other while simultaneously planning their future.⁣ It's an at-a-glance, moment-in-time nibble of their life after Wild At Heart.⁣
⁣⁣⁣
This story and world is just so beautiful; it's still one of my absolute favorites of the year and maybe of all-time. It was so nice to be wrapped up in their Alaskan wild world again if only for a short period. I would have looooved seeing this developed into a full novel — it definitely had the potential! But I think I'll for always want more of Calla and Jonah, so being back there with them if only temporarily was really all I could have asked for.⁣⁣

As much as I'm sad to be leaving Calla and Jonah's world, this novella was a perfect way to end their story. Seeing them happy and together just warms my heart to the fullest. And I already want to reread the series from the beginning. The Wild series has a big piece of my heart. I can't wait to read from Marie's point of view.

I brought this book up North with me as I celebrated with my family in a cabin near Algonquin Park.
⁣
It was definitely the perfect place to read a book set in Alaska!

I loved this closing chapter to Calla and Jonah’s story. It was cute, fun and we got a few more oh so romantic moments! This novella is a short one, I was able to finish it in an afternoon curled up by the fire.

This sweet novella following Jalla (Calla and Jonah) was just what I needed as I binge my way through the Wild series by K.A. Tucker. I love being immersed in their Alaskan life and seeing all of their family come for Christmas was such a treat. I've said it before and I'll say it again I love all the characters in this series and that includes the parents and the found family! We finally get to meet Jonah's mom and stepdad as well as get more of Roy who is my new favorite!! Since this was a novella we got straight to the meat of the story and got all the good parts that helped wrap up these two's journey. It was sweet, fun and even thrilling at times and I adored it so much.

Calla and Jonah have a place in my heart because they are totally meant to be with each other. They may face some struggles with each other but they always go back to each other no matter what. Their love is so strong that nothing can destroy. And it totally sucks to say goodbye to them. I won't do it, K.A. Tucker. Just letting you know.
Anyways, Calla and Jonah are going to have their whole family together for the holiday. And it's going to be doozy. Being around family is always special but it is always chaotic too. Drama will happen no matter what. And it's going to happen when Jonah is reunited with his family especially with his stepfather. I hope patience is on Jonah's side because they are going to be there for two weeks. It's a wonderful time but a long time. 
So many things are happening in Calla and Jonah's life that we get to see how K.A. Tucker set up for the next book which will be Marie's story. Shocking but a nice surprise.

I just love this story so much! All the characters are everything I want in a contemporary/romance. Can’t wait to see more of these characters in Marie’s story. I hope KA Tucker keeps writing about this little family in Alaska.

This novella is a wonderful (and much-needed) dose of Calla and Jonah love, but didn't feel totally necessary. My expectations were high, and sadly Forever Wild didn't meet them.

It makes up for a lot of the romance Wild at Heart lacked, but in doing so, the story felt rushed and messy. It's easy to read, but over in a flash. While I immediately love anything associated with the Barbie and the Yeti, Forever Wild didn't hit the mark. As for the story, it's lovely to read. Jonah remains my favourite character, closely followed by Simon and Agnes. Roy's story could have been explored in a little more depth, but it was a joy to meet the residents of Trapper's Crossing once again. Like always, Tucker perfectly builds a cosy but rustic Alaskan atmosphere, with plenty of levity and humour balanced with heartfelt depths.

There are some parts of the novella I think would have made a great epilogue, with the bulk being explored in a third book. Still, I enjoyed reading, and I won't hesitate to pick up the next instalment.

This novella was wonderful and perfect and absolutely everything I needed in my life right now.

AHHHHHH I LOVED THIS! 

This was exactly the extended epilogue I needed. I love Jonah and Calla. I loved Roy and Muriel, and Agnes and Mabel are back! And Simon is amazing as always.
(view spoiler)[. OMG I was so excited for their wedding, it was amazing! And a plane ride after the ceremony was so them.
I hope I'm right... buy I think Calla's pregnant in the epilogue and I'm so excited. I wanted another scene with Jonah and their kid because Jonah is going to be the best dad.  (hide spoiler)]
READ THIS SERIES IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY.

** spoiler alert **
           This was such a heartwarming holiday adventure. Like with the first two novels in this series, I felt such a connection with all the characters and teared up in a few different places. Even though this is a novella, it still hit all the emotions and I really enjoyed it. I know these are characters who will continue to stick with me for a long time.

Also, Marie’s getting her own book?! I’m excited to continue reading about more characters in this world and look forward to seeing her find her own happy ending.

This novella made my heart so happy. There’s Christmas, a wedding, a family reunion - everything I could want and more for Calla and Jonah’s final story. LOVED it!
