Talk Wicked to Me
Synopsis
Veterinarian and Dark Knights biker Baxter 'Baz' Wicked is the most charming and mysterious of his family, with a career he loves, a brotherhood he trusts, and absolutely no plans to settle down anytime soon. Then Emerson Lockhart walks into his life. Pregnant and largely on her own, Emerson relocated to Bayside years after losing her parents, and she has learned to guard herself and protect what little certainty she has. Baz, an unabashed golden-retriever of a man, finds himself drawn to her anyway, and his carefully crafted plans prove no match for ten tiny fingers and toes. Set on the sandy shores of Cape Cod, where the Wickeds are fiercely protective and their family bonds are unbreakable, this standalone unfolds as a slow-burn, strangers-to-lovers story about a confirmed bachelor who falls first. By turns hilarious and heart-wrenching, it follows Baz as he discovers that life and love are gloriously messy, and that the future he never planned for might be the one he wants most, while Emerson must decide whether she can trust him with both her heart and her child.
