Yes, 'The Secret Life of Bees' by Sue Monk Kidd. It has a wild element in the sense that it's set in a time of great social change in the South. The characters, especially the young girl, are on a journey of self - discovery and freedom. The beauty lies in the relationships between the women in the story and the descriptions of the beekeeping and the natural world around them. Also, 'Wild' by Cheryl Strayed. Her solo hike along the Pacific Crest Trail is a story of a woman finding herself in the wild, and it's beautifully written, with a strong sense of freedom and self - empowerment.
One example could be 'Into the Wild' by Jon Krakauer. It tells the true story of a young man who abandons his comfortable life to live in the Alaskan wilderness, which is very 'wild'. The way Krakauer writes about the beauty of nature and the protagonist's quest for freedom is really engaging. Another is 'The Call of the Wild' by Jack London. The story of Buck, a dog, adapting to the wild life in the Yukon is both beautiful in its description of the natural world and a tale of freedom from the constraints of civilization.
πI recommend "Wild Into the Bone" and "Reborn in the Wild Age" to you. Both of them are novels about urban life. The former tells the story of a lazy lost daughter and a rebellious teenager secretly falling in love, while the latter is the story of a person building a deserted village in the 1990s. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~π
πI recommend "Strategy for the Poor Student" to you. This is a fantasy romance-Oriental fantasy novel. The protagonist, Pei Ying's soul, enters a world where he falls into a net woven by others and starts a story full of hatred and feelings with Gu Xinzhi. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation.

I'm not sure as I haven't read the novel yet. But it could be a young adventurer seeking freedom in the wild.
Well, it could be the setting. For example, if the story takes place in a vast, untamed wilderness like a deep forest or a wide open prairie. The characters might also be 'free' in their actions and thoughts, not bound by strict social norms. And 'beautiful' could refer to the prose, the way the author writes, perhaps using very vivid and poetic language to describe the story.
One popular 'wild wild west' romance novel is 'Outlander' by Diana Gabaldon. It has elements of time - travel and a strong romantic relationship set against a historical backdrop that gives a feel of the wild west in some parts. Another is 'Ride the Fire' by Pamela Clare. It's full of adventure and a passionate love story in the western frontier.
Another one could be 'Dracula'. Castle Dracula is a very 'wild' house in the novel. It is located in a remote and spooky area, full of dark corridors and hidden chambers. It gives a sense of danger and the unknown, which is very characteristic of a 'wild house' in a horror - themed novel.

Another good one from the list might be 'Aces High'. It focuses on the aces, those who got lucky with the virus mutation, and their adventures. There are a lot of interesting characters and exciting plot twists in this novel.
The novel might be centered around the idea of wildness as a form of beauty and freedom. It could show how people can find their true selves when they are away from the norms and restrictions of the civilized world. For example, it might depict a character who leaves the city life behind to live in a remote area near the mountains or by the sea. There, they encounter various challenges and joys that come with living in harmony with nature, and through these experiences, they grow and understand the true meaning of being wild, beautiful and free.
Another great wild boy novel is 'Tarzan of the Apes' by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Tarzan grows up in the African jungle among the apes. He has all these amazing jungle - related skills and has to navigate between his wild upbringing and the civilized world when he encounters humans. His story is full of adventure and his relationship with the animals in the jungle is really interesting.
