•••••••••••
REVIEW: LOVE UNCIVILIZED is the continuing story of Zach and Moira first introduced in Sawyer Bennett’s UNCIVILIZED storyline. Zach was raised in the Amazon jungle and his foray into civilization has brought with it some uncivilized notions and sexual needs. LOVE UNCIVILIZED focuses on Zach and Moira’s relationship, their marriage and growing family eight years after the events of book one-the novella should not be read as a stand alone.
Told from alternating first person points of view (Zach and Moira) LOVE UNCIVILIZED looks at the struggles of having it all-love, marriage, family, success and a healthy and active sex life. Zach’s work hours take him away from his family and the love of his life; Moira is battling her desire to be a stay at home mom and the call of a career outside of the home. With their anniversary and the Christmas holidays approaching, Zach is torn between his family and the need to prove himself worthy of being CEO. What ensues are Moira’s struggles to remain happy in the face of her struggling marriage, and Zach’s need to keep his family together.
LOVE UNCIVILIZED is a familiar scenario for many married and co-habitating couples when work and careers seem to take over one another’s lives. Late nights, early mornings, two young children, and the hit and miss of a satisfying sex life all add to an increasingly dissatisfying life. Moira and Zach will have to take time to ‘smell the proverbial roses’ or risk losing one another without ever knowing. The $ex scenes are intimate, provocative, erotic and intense-Zach is a wild man; an alpha male who likes control both in and out of the bedroom.
LOVE UNCIVILIZED is provocative and passionate; an honest account about the daily struggles and issue that many couples face. The premise is heartbreaking and familiar but in the end Zach knows that save his marriage and his family, he has to step back and take stock of what is important in his life.

Love: Uncivilized Blog Tour – 25 Facts about Sawyer Bennett
1. I am a lawyer by trade, but stopped practicing to write full-time in 2014. I still maintain an active law license.
2. Some of the scenarios in the Legal Affairs Series are loosely based on real-life court cases. Though sadly, none of the naughty office shenanigans are real.
3. “Closer” by Nine Inch Nails was on repeat while writing Off Limits. That was my theme song for the book.
4. In Off the Record, Linc and Ever go to assist with clean-up efforts following a tornado in Oklahoma. This was taken from my personal experience of assisting with the clean-up efforts in Joplin, MO following an EF5 tornado on May 22, 2011.
5. My favorite book is To Kill a Mockingbird, and my dogs are named after the main characters, Atticus and Scout.
6. My dad owned a bar when I was growing up, so I spent a lot of time there slinging beer. It was part of my inspiration for the Last Call Series.
7. Jackson Hole, WY is one of my favorite places ever, and if I had it my way, I’d retire there.
8. I swam with stingrays just after Steve Irwin was tragically killed by one.
9. There is no room in my life for spiders. None. Kill them all dead. Ryker’s fear of spiders came from my own fears.
10. I am teaching my almost 2-year-old daughter to love and appreciate all things Harry Potter.
11. But that doesn’t mean I don’t give in and let her watch Barney to keep her entertained. I love that big, purple dinosaur more than I ever imagined possible.
12. I wrote my first new adult book, Off Sides, as a dare from my husband.
13. I make a mean Bloody Mary.
14. I played volleyball in college.
15. I am a born and raised North Carolinian.
16. I love all things Pittsburgh: Steelers, Penguins, Primanti Brothers, etc.
17. I am a huge Ohio State fan and used to have a dog named Buckeye. O-H…
18. While I love all the men in the Cold Fury Series, Ryker is my favorite. Something about his character really spoke to me, and I found him to be very swoony when all was said and done.
19. Some of the content in Wicked Fall (and the upcoming Wicked Lust) was far outside of my realm of knowledge, and has led to some very questionable (and informative) Google searches.
20. I had the title for Uncivilized before I ever knew what the book would be about. I just loved that title and knew I needed to use it, and then were born Zacharias and Moira.
21. I once planned and booked a two-week car/ train trip through the Czech Republic, Germany, Austria and Hungary for my husband’s 40th birthday party using nothing but Google Maps.
22. Next to spiders, I’m terrified of sharks. I refuse to get in the ocean.
23. Buffy the Vampire Slayer is my all time favorite show. I have all 7 seasons on DVD and I’m actually embarrassed to tell you how many times I’ve watched all 7 seasons.
24. I just started learning the sport of Mixed Martial Arts and it’s scary how much I enjoy punching and hitting things.
25. I have a tropical Goby fish I named Fred. He intimidates me. He fluffs up the sand into a pile, sits on top of it and glares at me.
