A Little Bit Wicked (The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside) by Melissa Foster {Book Review}

Disclosure: I received this book to review through Beck Valley Books, I have volunteered to share my review and all the opinions are 100% my own.

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.

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. Their stories are told in the same loving, passionate voice readers have come to adore from Melissa. Some of the Wickeds’ love stories will be hilariously fun, others will tear at your heartstrings with injections of humor, but they will all leave you wishing you could climb between the pages and join them!

In A LITTLE BIT WICKED…

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?

Justin and Chloe’s story has topped my #1 for Melissa Foster books… in fact, I think I could say it probably takes the #2 spot in my favorites of all books. Period.

A Little Bit Wicked was not only unlike most of Melissa’s previous romance books that I have read, but touched far too close to home for me personally. I could relate with both Justin and Chloe’s experiences on so many personal levels, at times, I felt I was reading my own story – and I shared the emotions right along with them. (No joke y’all, I cried 4 different times while reading this book! And I am NOT a crier!)

Justin is unlike your typical Melissa man. He is hunky and he has a big heart that loves hard and is super romantic, but unlike most of Melissa’s men; I found him to be raunchier than most of Melissa’s men. And I am not implying that was a bad thing. It definitely gave us two different sides to Justin.

A Little Bit Wicked has dogs (rescued dogs from a dog fighting ring to be exact, that had me in tears because let’s be real, we all know pitbulls are the norm for dog fights and I am a pitbull mommy), trauma (Justin and Chloe each have their own traumatic past that had me in tears), romance, an outpouring of love and support (that people can only wish they can experience in real life), family, and a shocking turn of events that while I want to say is “drama”, it was so much more (and more tears of course).

Hands down, this was my favorite romance from Melissa and one that I will definitely be reading again. Shoot, this would even make for an amazing movie – that I would no doubt go out and own immediately! I cannot rave enough about this book and highly recommend checking it out yourself! (The great thing about Melissa’s books is that they can be read as stand alone or as a long line of glorious romance books so even if you have never read a Melissa Foster romance, you won’t be lost if you grab this one!)

When he’s finally released, the life he knew is turned upside down by his mother’s overdose, and Truman steps in to raise the children she’s left behind. Truman’s hard, he’s secretive, and he’s trying to save a brother who’s even more broken than he is. He’s never needed help in his life, and when beautiful Gemma Wright tries to step in, he’s less than accepting. But Gemma has a way of slithering into people’s lives and eventually she pierces through his ironclad heart.
