Guest book review - Crazy, Wicked Love by Melissa Foster (The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside)


Scorching heat, laugh-out-loud humor, and swoon-worthy moments abound in this sexy new standalone romance by New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Melissa Foster. 

What happens when the player gets played? 

Sidney Carver has a big problem, and he goes by the name of Dwayne “Gunner” Wicked: six-plus feet of muscular, motorcycle-riding, animal-loving deliciousness. Gunner is her boss, roommate, and best friend. They’ve seen each other through life-altering injuries and unimaginable losses, and they work side by side at Wicked Animal Rescue, fulfilling their passion to save animals. Unfortunately, Gunner is also the man Sidney is in love with, and he's the ultimate player. As her former military comrade, Gunner sees her as his buddy—just one of the guys. Sidney is at her wit’s end, ready to risk the friendship and job she adores for a chance at forever love with the man she can’t live without. Like any good marine, she comes up with a mission. Enter Operation Get My Guy

Gunner loves his life. He has a family he adores, a brotherhood that always has his back, and a host of willing women to warm his bed. As the owner of Wicked Animal Rescue, he saves lives and works with his best friend, Sid, the coolest woman on the planet. When Sid concocts a crazy plan to win his cousin’s heart, Gunner reluctantly agrees to be her wingman. 

Practices heat up as roommates become teammates. Let the wicked fun begin… No cheating. No cliffhangers. Guaranteed to melt panties and leave readers hopelessly in love with the sinfully delicious Wickeds.

Guest book review by Devorah Bergman
Wow! This book was AMAZING. Friends to lovers is a tricky mountain to climb but Melissa Foster smashed it out of the park. I could not put this book down once I started. Sidney has loved Gunner for a love time but is worried that he doesn't feel the same way. Little does she know how much he has done for her over the years to show how much he loves her.

It takes Sidney getting creative and asking Gunner to "help" her "catch a guy" but in the end, she "catches her guy"...who happens to be Gunner.

The way Melissa Foster weaves this whole story together is amazing and I cannot wait to see more of this couple in future books.

A Little Bit Wicked
A captivatingly funny and deeply emotional new standalone romance by New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster. When the Dark Knights at Bayside and the cast of Bayside Summers collide, sparks fly, and trouble—or maybe love—is not far behind.

What do a cocky biker and a businesswoman who has sworn off dating bad boys have in common? According to Chloe Mallery, not much.

Justin came into the Wicked family after a harsh upbringing by a thieving father. He’s gone through a lot to become a true Wicked, and he’s made them proud. Now he’s ready to show the woman he loves exactly what type of man he is. But Chloe Mallery has worked hard to move past her difficult upbringing, and she’s wary of getting involved with a man who looks like he’s walked right out of it. When tragedy strikes, will their trying pasts draw them together, or will Justin’s protective nature be too much for Chloe’s independent heart to accept?

The Wicked Aftermath
An emotionally gripping story of love, loss, and hope, with a rich and entrancing happily ever after. Set on the sandy shores of Cape Cod, the Wickeds feature fiercely protective heroes, strong heroines, and unbreakable family bonds. If you think bikers are all the same, you haven't met the Dark Knights. The Dark Knights are a motorcycle club, not a gang. Their members stick together like family and will stop at nothing to keep their communities safe. Some of the Wickeds’ love stories will be hilariously fun and deeply emotional, others will tear at your heartstrings and include injections of humor, but they will all leave you wishing you could climb between the pages and join them. All Wicked novels may be enjoyed as standalone romances. 

When the person you blame for your grief is the only one who can save you from the pain... 

Tank Wicked lost his sister and has since vowed to save everyone else in his path. He lives by the creed of the Dark Knights motorcycle club, sworn to protect and respect his community. He selflessly saves lives as a volunteer firefighter and treats the men and women who work for him at his tattoo shop like family. But life isn’t a balance scale where good deeds negate bad things to come, and one foggy night life guts Tank once again. When a car careens over the side of a bridge and into a river, Tank springs into action, plunging into the water to rescue the passengers. Four people go into the river, but only three come out alive. 

Leah Yates is just trying to make it through each day. When the man she blames for her grief becomes the only one who can pull her from the depths of despair, she discovers that even hope comes at a price. Maybe this time she won't have to face it alone.

Guest book review by Rachel Quaill

A tale of foreboding and intrigue that will drive the reader to keep turning the pages


The group of five lifelong friends is a tale of foreboding and intrigue that will drive the reader to keep turning the pages. Each chapter began with a small excerpt that gave insight into what was to come in a way that entices the reader to want to know more. Each character in the book played their own integral part that added to the collaborative dynamic of all of the boys' stories. Each friend added their own backstory that gave the reader an idea of why they were chosen to become these super heroes for the community.


Each boys’ story and character added to the overall hyper masculine and action packed smack downs that occurred in almost every other chapter. It helped soften their overall character in a way, making them more relatable and human. I would have liked the characters to have had the opportunity to develop a bit further in the story, but I have no doubt that they will be given that chance in future books that get written about these very interesting and exciting characters.
