I put my hands under his arms to lift him up so he would kiss me. I was shaking already with anticipation and need. Wilder ran his tongue up my stomach and underneath my breasts.
When I started to moan, he stopped.
“What are you doing?” I asked him, annoyed.
He smiled at me. “I just wanted to see if you’d ask for more.”
“Why wouldn’t I want more?” I slapped him lightly on the arm, giving him my best ‘annoyed’ face.
Wilder laughed and then lifted me over his shoulder like a rag doll. “I lied,” he said. “I like when you’re annoyed. Your nose does this cute little wiggle and I wanted to see that happen.”
I shrieked as he carried me over to the mattress, throwing me down onto the bed and pulling off his underwear.
“I think we can get in two or three rounds before we’re called back to set, don’t you?” he said to me with a grin.
I smiled up at him, my arms laid flat above my head. Wilder was still just standing there staring at me. I squirmed.
“What are you waiting for?” I asked him impatiently.
He shook his head. “I don’t get a moment to enjoy how gorgeous my wife is?”
“No, you don’t,” I retorted. “Your wife demands sex. You must give it to her with no hesitation.”
Wilder smirked at me with a sexy little grin. “I was right, you know.”
I squinted at him. “Right about what?”
“I told you that you’d fall in love with me that first night we met.”
He kneeled down next to the mattress and lifted me up with his hands behind my back. I wrapped my legs around his torso and scooted my naked body closer to the edge of the bed until his eyes were level with mine. He pushed my hair back from my face and smiled.
“Well, this is the only time I’ll let you be right, so you better enjoy it,” I retorted with a smile.
Wilder ran his fingers down my cheek. “I fucking love you.”
“I know,” I said. And I meant it.

AUTHOR’S NOTE AND SOUNDTRACK
I grew up on romantic comedies:
You’ve Got Mail, While You Were Sleeping, 13 Going on 30…
I once watched
The Princess Diaries
sequel seven times in as many days.
I love great romantic movies. Even more: I love great romantic movies with great pop soundtracks. I routinely daydream in movie montages.
This book would not have been possible without Taylor Swift and her
1989
album (the deluxe edition, naturally). I listened to it on repeat two hundred times while crafting this story. I normally hate listening to music while I write, but this experience has me interested in writing more novels with soundtracks shaping the landscape and the characters who walk out of my head and onto the page.
I drew a kernel of inspiration for
Step Wilde
from Swift’s music video for “Wildest Dreams” – with liberal creative license applied. I loved the idea of two co-stars falling in love with each other and having it be a secret to the rest of the world. I moved the setting from a 1950s film set in imperialist, colonialist Africa (not romantic in my mind) to modern-day Italy. And of course, there was no marital infidelity in
Step Wilde
(or really any infidelity in this book other than Hailey’s).
These are the
1989
songs that were on heavy rotation and make up the “soundtrack” to this novel:
“Style” – Wilder and Olivia walki
ng across campus during their first night together in college.
“Blank Space” – If Hailey Holliday had a theme song, this would be it.
“I Know Places” – when Wilder invites Olivia to Tuscany to escape the press; that concept was one of the first in my mind when I sat down to write.
“Wildest Dreams” – when Olivia and Wilder are walking through the Tuscan vineyard at sunset discussing his infamous ‘Wilde Child’ dick pics…all the way to him confessing his love in the middle of an NYC rainstorm.
“All You Had to Do Was Stay” (Ryan Adams cover) – when Olivia is back in Los Angeles remembering the events that took place post-Italy.
“Clean” – when Olivia is sobbing to her mother in New York while (unbeknownst to her) at that very moment, Wilder is running through the city streets to his dad’s garage.
“How You Get the Girl” – when Olivia and Wilder finally reunite at their parents’ wedding.
“This Love” – when Olivia and Wilder have sex during their “on-set” honeymoon.
“New Romantics” – As the “credits” roll. (I told you I love movies).
I hope you enjoyed reading this story as much as I enjoyed writing it. I hope it provided you an escape the way a great romantic comedy film does. These characters are as real to me as people I’ve met in real life. Thank you so much for being a part of this “wilde” journey with me.
