Warning: This book is a wild, sexy beast of a read. 18+
Putting a woman on her knees before me is what really makes my cock hard. I fuck with dominant force and absolute control. I demand complete surrender from my conquests.
Savage man, loner, warrior… I am dangerous at my core. I have lived amidst the untamed wild of the rainforest, in a society that reveres me and where every woman falls … reveres me and where every woman falls before me in subjugation.
Now I’ve been discovered. Forced to return to a world that I have forgotten about and to a culture that is only vaguely familiar to my senses.
Dr. Moira Reed is an anthropologist who has been hired to help me transition back into modern society. It’s her job to smooth away my rough edges… to teach me how to navigate properly through this new life of mine. She wants to tame me.
She’ll never win.
I am wild, free and raw, and the only thing I want from the beautiful Moira Reed is to fuck her into submission.
She wants it, I am certain.
I will give it to her soon.
Yes, very soon, I will become the teacher and she will become my student. And when I am finished showing her body pleasure like no other, she’ll know what it feels like to be claimed by an uncivilized man.

I enjoyed this book, but then again I was always a fan of Tarzan. Of course this is a very X-rated version with a Tarzan-ish character.
This book was very interesting from the moment I started reading I could not put down until the end.
This book really lives up to its name!
Zach is without a doubt the most uncivilized book “hero” I’ve ever read. He doesn’t even care to fake it. His relationship with Moira is only complicated by her expecting him to be open to change, and while he does give “civilization” a solid try, ultimately he doesn’t see anything wrong with the way he was before and is happiest when he’s free to live as before. It’s not only his approach to what we’d consider “creature comforts” that is different, but the tribe in which he was raised has very loose emotional expectations attached to sexual acts. His emotional growth, therefore, is the underlying focus of the second half of the book. The story was intense and well written, and they do have a very satisfying HEA that I really enjoyed.
Uncivilized (Uncivilized #1) was a great read by Sawyer Bennett. Moira is an anthropologist who has been hired to transition Zach back into modern society. Zach didn’t want to leave the only life he knows behind but knows that he has to, at least for now. When Moira tries to teach him more civilized ways, they grow closer together. I really enjoyed reading Moira and Zach’s story and cant wait to read more by Sawyer Bennett.
Moira and Zach’s story is nothing like I have read before. It took me a little while to get caught into the story, but after that I wasn’t able to stop listening. This is an interesting modern retelling of Tarzan. The storyline is unexpectedly intense, fun, hot, and intriguing. Zach is an alpha dominant, smart, and caring. Moira is strong, determined, and smart. Their chemistry is sizzling hot! The characters are well developed. I loved the ending. Kirsten Leigh and Lee Samuels did an outstanding job with the narration. I enjoyed it.
I can not believe I did not know about this book before now and I do not understand. If you are like me and just discovering it you will be upset yet at the same time glad to have found it. What a refreshing listen to a non-stop story. I totally didn’t know what to expect and the story is so much more than the summary gives. Moira and Zach are from two very different worlds and I so enjoyed how Moira taught Zach about her world. There were some great laughs as well as sad moments. The heat level was off the charts. I didn’t want to turn the book off between the storytelling and the narrators that really brought the story to life. It was so easy to visual what was happening and feel the emotions of the characters. I was hooked right from the start and it went all the way to the end, leaving me with a major book hangover. I was so not ready for the book to come to an end and I so want more of these characters.
5 star Review Uncivilized by Sawyer Bennett
AUDIO REVIEW:
Having read this book I was excited to see how it would translate into audio and I was not disappointed in any way. Lee Samuels and Kirsten Leigh were spot on as Zach and Moira, their performance really did the story justice and I thoroughly enjoyed their narration.
Uncivilized has all the passion and fire that we have come to expect from Sawyer Bennett; it was smoking hot, raunchy and steamy.
This book was well written, emotional and at times stressful as Zach struggled to re integrate back into society with Moira’s help, as they both fought their emotional and personal demons to get the happily ever after they so deserved.
WOW! This was one sexy read. Zach went to the Amazon jungle with his parents when he was a child and his parents were killed and he was raised by the tribe. His godfather finds out years later he is still alive and finds an anthropology professor to go and get him and bring him back and help him acclimate. Zach does not want to come back but agrees to one year. He is angry and give Moira a run for it. He is used to being naked and having sex when he wants but now she wants him to wear clothes and behave. It doesn’t take long for him to bring her around to his way of thinking and soon they are having sex, wild dominant sex. I had this one in audio and it burned my ears, great narrator and smoking hot. Zach is extremely intelligent and picks things up very fast so he acclimates quickly but watching him and Moira come to terms was enjoyable.
I loved this book so different.
I very much enjoyed the characters and the story. It was romantic and had a HEA.
Nice and enjoyable read
Great book! Love Sawyer Bennett! This was a little more gritty and dark than her other books I’ve read, but still really good. Original story, with great characters and great interactions. Very steamy, yet at times very romantic.
Uncivilized was super hot, but also had a lot of heart. It touches on the very real issues of deforestation in the Amazon, which is forcing the remaining indigenous peoples to acclimate to modern society, whether they want to or not – and highlights some of the ways, we as a modern people, have completely lost touch with what it means to really live, with all of our senses and our bodies, every day, rather than being numbed by convenience, lack of true freedom and luxury.
The differences between the two worlds are a constant, super sexy, debate amongst the main characters. I really loved that they always came across as a team, no matter what situation they were thrown into, or what outside influences tried to intervene. I was afraid the plot may get predictable, but it never did. I do feel it dragged a bit in places, particularly during the ‘flashbacks’ and felt that a lot of the redundant information could have been completely cut out without harming the story at all.
Zacharias Easton is the son of missionaries who died in the Amazon jungles when he was only seven years old. For eighteen years, he’s been raised amongst the Caraican Indian tribe, completely primitive in all ways. He is revered by his tribe as a great hunter, has Tukaba completely submitted to him and loves his adoptive father dearly. The last thing he wants is to leave the only home he’s ever known with the flame-haired woman he hates more than anything else, despite his undeniable attraction to her.
Dr. Moira Reed is an anthropologist that specializes in the study of Amazonian Indians who attempt to acclimate in the modern world. When Randall Cannon contacts her with a remarkable story about his long-lost godson, Zach, she can’t resist the opportunity. Unfortunately, the career boost isn’t the only thing she finds impossible to resist, when she discovers that Zach is a man of primal instincts, animal magnetism and deadly precision. When she learns that no matter how many clothes, books or utensils he learns to use, nothing will ever change the fact that he is completely, erotically, beautifully uncivilized.
OH MY GOD!! FAVORITE BOOK BY SAWYER BENNETT EVER!!!! I loved Zach to me he was like a little kid learning the ropes of being in Kindergarten, just a lot more adult, “shrugging my shoulders, I give her a mocking stare. “You told me to treat this home as my own. In my own home, I would be naked. Thus I am naked here in this place you tell me to call my home.” When asked about his activities the boy doesn’t lie but is totally upfront and honest, “well, let’s see…I masturbated in your kitchen and climaxed all over your table.” I loved seeing him go from uncivilized, to partial civilized, to civilized in his own way, and I loved the feelings Moira brings out in him, “I don’t like this feeling I have,” Zach says with his brows furrowed in consternation. “I don’t like watching him put his hands on you.” I was actually hesitant to go into this book and after I finished it I have no reason why I felt that, because I devoured this sucker!
Hot and beautiful!
