Publisher's summary

Scorching heat, laugh-out-loud humor, and swoon-worthy moments abound in this sexy new stand-alone romance by New York Times and Wall Street Journal best-selling 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 and comes up with a plan of his own.

Practices heat up as roommates become teammates. Let the wicked fun begin....

No cheating. No cliff-hangers. Guaranteed to melt panties and leave listeners hopelessly in love with the sinfully delicious Wickeds.

About The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside

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. These men are wickedly alpha and intensely loyal, but they are not alpha-holes.

Loved Crazy, Wicked Love

Another great story in this series by Melissa Foster. I loved Gunner and Sidney’s relationship, their friendship turning into romantic love as well as the love they had for their pet animals. Ava Erickson and Jacob Morgan were terrific narrating this book and I loved their performances.

Adorable 🥰

I love Melissa's books because even though they touch on some difficult subjects, they are still relatively low angst/drama and still full of good feels. This was another in her MC series. I consider these MC-lite as they aren't dark and gritty and violent (I do love those as well), but instead more of a "we take care of our own" club. Sid and Gunny were such a good fit and so flippin cute. The narration is wonderful. Jacob and Ava are great together and bring a very similar energy to their performances which makes them a great pair to listen to.

Romance and Rescue dogs, need I say more?

Wicked Good

First of all narration Jacob and Ava are absolute perfection! I think these 2 could make listening to washing machine manual being read sound fabulous! Love!
The story is so sweet of military best friends into lovers. I usually get pretty frustrated with this trope. This one is done very well! Sid & Gunner are so romantic with their gestures they don’t even realize.
Definitely worth a credit great listen great story!

Sid had an objective turned mission turned more

Sid had hoped that when Gunner Wicked asked her to move in with him and help out at the animal rescue that things would lead to more. Now, some years later and they are still in the same holding pattern. They may walk/roam the house in their underwear, but nothing has happened beyond simple friendship. Sid feels she needs to do something and soon or she will have to walk away. Gunner loved his best friend. He would do anything for her. That includes help her seduce his player cousin. Gunner begins to see things a little clearer. He wants Sid for himself, but he seems to get in his own way at time. The two find each other finally at equal points but Sid is beginning to feel bad about the way things came to be. She decides to come clean and that is what changes what they have.

I always love returning to Bayside. I love return to Melissa Foster and the stories she create. I love even more falling back into the Wickeds and the Dark Knights. They felt like more than family. The had bonds deeper than blood and stronger than steel. Gunner and Sid's trek to love was no different. I loved watching and Gunner work to help Sid catch the man he thinks she wants. He has not clue this was just a mission Sid felt she had to undertaken to get him to notice her. She has loved him for years. He just sees her as another friend or worse just one of the guys. This was a friends-to-lover with a lot of work and fun along the way

Ava and Jacob bring the Wickeds of Bayside to life. Give them all that additional personality with their voices. You can feel the characters come to life. Make a connections to the characters. Excellent performance.

EXCELLENT READ!

This was an excellent read. The relationship (friends to lovers) between Sid and Gunner makes you impatient to find out what is going to happen next. The narration was excellent and kept me entertained. The author did an excellent job with the character builds and plot. I can't wait to read the next book! I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Best friends to lovers ever!

Sidney Carver painted herself into a corner: she fell in love with her best friend and roommate, Dwayne 'Gunner' Wicked. They met in the military and have gone through hell together. She was there for him when his sister died of an accidental overdose and he was there for her when she was injured on a mission. Now they work together at their dream job, Wicked Animal Rescue, and live under the same roof. But Gunner sees her a buddy, a "cute guy". She's had it! It's time for Operation Get The Man and she comes up with a plan to make him finally notice her, where he will be the wingman when she tries to learn to flirt and lure "his cousin". 

Now wait a minute! Why is he now feeling these weird and proprietary feelings? Well, because he's always wanted Sid in his arms (and hopefully in his bed) from the moment they met. Those feeling were shoved deep inside because he'd never jeopardize their perfect friendship and lose the most important person in his life. But she just changed the rules of the game... Let's play!

OMG, scrape me from the floor because I have turned into a pile of gooey, warm and fuzzy feelings. This sweet and steamy friends to lovers romance is pure Melissa gold! Definitely a standalone, but you also get to see the Wickeds, hear a bit about the Whiskeys and attend Tank and Leah's wedding. My heart just melted. 

It's not all fluff and sweetness - Melissa always tackles hard subjects, so be prepared to have your heart broken a little too, with mistreated animals and prodigal children. However,  also in true Melissa fashion, she puts you back together.

PERFECT! Now where do I sign up to get me a Dark Knight???

Jacob and Ava are perfect as Gunner and Syd! *chef'skiss*

Possible Triggers: mentions of injuries incurred while in a military mission, drug use/ overdose, and mistreated animals

Fantastic!

Melissa never disappoints me when she writes a story and this one is no exception.
Sydney had fallen in love with her roommate Gunner. He happened to be her best friend and boss. She hated it when Gunner brought women into the house to sleep with him. They had both been in the Marines and both loved animals They wanted each other but neither would say anything, so they just kept working on getting the rescue animals a home.
Ava Erikson and Jacob Morgan are both master narrators. They bring all the emotions of the characters.

One conversation would have ruined the plot.

I love Melissa Foster, but this one was a bit of a torture since literally one sentence from either MC would’ve fixed everything.

Best friends equal forever love

Can best friends become forever in love? Dwayne “Gunnar” and Sidney have been best friends ever since meeting while in the military. But what happens when one friend develops feelings and the other continues to not notice the other? All kinds of shenanigans happen, that's what. So much happens in this story, not only with Gunnar and Sidney but with the rest of the family. Tank and Leah get married!! I just love large extended families that always have unconditional love for anyone they consider family blood or not. Plenty of heat between the sheets and awesome character development. Completely in love with this series and especially Sid and Gunnar. Totally recommend Crazy, Wicked Love by Melissa Foster. I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. *****

This is the required headline

Audible won't let us just star books we've listened to anymore, so here's some text that I'm sure will be super useful to all the algorithms.
