She has fought hard to move past a difficult upbringing, and a man who looks like he stepped straight out of it is the last risk she wants to take. Justin sees things differently. He came into the Wicked family after a harsh childhood with a thieving father, and he has worked relentlessly to become a true Wicked and a trusted member of the Dark Knights motorcycle club that took him in. Now he is ready to show the woman he loves exactly what kind of man he has become. Set on the sandy shores of Cape Cod, where the Wickeds are fiercely protective and their family bonds run deep, the story keeps pushing the two together as their trying pasts resurface. When tragedy strikes, they must decide whether shared history will draw them close or whether Justin's protective instincts will overwhelm Chloe's fiercely independent heart. Their standalone romance balances heat, humor, and hard-won tenderness.",2020,"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kxpxpkx3v8retd6ym3ck5qm5.jpg?v=2cbb8dee79","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks-3d\u002F01\u002F01kxpxpkx3v8retd6ym3ck5qm5.png?v=bc013ec8df","LLG[pDD%tRxu00tRs.ae_NJAM|R+","4.00",1,425,483,0,"complete",false,true,[17,17,17,17,17,17,17,14,17,17],[23],{"id":24,"slug":25,"name":26,"role":27,"bio":28},"01kx262b7fyxe3z8beha1bc09z","melissa-foster-ffxg","Melissa Foster","author","A New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestselling author, Melissa Foster has written more than 100 novels and sold millions of copies worldwide.

In true Melissa Foster style A Little Bit Wicked delivered an exceptional, sexy and heart-warming friends to lovers romance.\n\nFoster creates swoon worthy heroes, but I have to say Justin Wicked is the cream of the crop. That man is so divine. He was not what I had expected based on the few encounters I had with him in previous books. A great friend and an even greater boyfriend. A confident male who is not afraid to go after what he wants.\n\nHer heroines are usually sassy, smart and caring and Chloe epitomised all these traits.\n\nChloe and Justin were great as friends and they proved to be awesome as a couple. Their journey towards this new aspect of their relationship took one and a half year. Why? Chloe didn’t want to be involved with a biker. She saw bikers as being bad based on her experience, but she would learn that the Dark Knights were not the typical run-of-the-mill motorcycle gang.\n\nDespite their differences, they had a lot in common. They both had painful pasts, which they overcame to become strong individuals. They were artistic, and they shared a love for animals. Falling in love with them was both was as easy as 123. I loved seeing them together. My heart broke for them both when the stories of their past came to light.\n\nI enjoyed watching them as they navigated through their relationship. Slow burn, hot and romantic. They both had me fanning myself throughout the story.\n\nThe friendships that developed and the family dynamics helped in driving the story.\nLove and laughter permeated the pages of the book which made for interesting moments.\n\nConclusion\u002FRecommendation\nI enjoyed this latest offering from Foster, and I am looking forward to the next book in the series. \n\nThis review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading",4,"none","rv-01kxpxpmdst5bqp7sjmxc2r5x5",[],{"first":7,"last":7,"prev":7,"next":7},{"path":120,"per_page":121,"next_cursor":7,"prev_cursor":7,"has_more":19},"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fapi\u002Fworks\u002F01kxpxpkx3v8retd6ym3ck5qm5\u002Freviews",20]
