5.0

We're back in Bayside and for me, this is my first time dipping my bookish toes into the Dark Knights at Bayside series. A Melissa Foster sign-up was too irresistible to read, and I was looking forward to getting familiar with both the men and women of 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.
Crazy, Wicked Love promised scorching heat, laugh-out-loud humour (yes, I'm British I spell it with a 'u') and swoon-worthy romances. Well, you're getting what you're reading, folks. I signed up for these three very reasons right here and sweet hot men on bikes did Melissa Foster deliver that and then some! Gunner, of course, was the source of most of the swooning and scorching, but Sidney did give as good as Gunner and folks when I say you won't look at a set of stairs again the same, I mean it. You'll see why when you get to that part in the book. Woah and woah with bells on!
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.
Forbidden romance? Yes please! Clueless roommate (aka Gunner)? Yes please! Slow-burning steamy tension between two best friends that builds up to one hell of a friends-to-lovers moment? Mellisa, you delivered!!! It, of course, takes men a little bit longer to realise something completely obvious in front of their faces, and our Gunner here was certainly no exception. The big, burly biker gave us plenty palm-to-the-forehead moments where we thought he was going to get a clue and realise he felt something for Sidney other than friendship, with things getting close a time or two. The heat coming from these two even before things made a change in direction, my oh my they could start a fire! No match needed. Heat aside though, these were two characters which I really enjoyed getting to know and read, seeing as this is my first time reading about anyone from this series. Gunner I wanted to hit upside the head a few dozen times to make him see the obvious, and sweet Sidney I just wanted to give a big old hug to, but the two together were like they were meant to be. Melissa has a fantastic knack for writing literary soulmates, and I'm looking at a pair right here in this book.
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.
Operation: Get My Guy was a genius way of tying in Sidney's military past and military connection with the man who is the target of her mission, and as this book's blurb promised from the get-go, there was humour a-plenty to get us there in amongst the heat, swooning and an animal or three in between. Seriousness turns to doubt, which turns to uncertainty, which turns to regret along the road of Operation: Get My Guy , but was it worth it to stick it out, hell yes! A good soldier never abandons their mission and sees it through till the very end, and we were right there alongside Sidney--sometimes feeling like we were in her shoes--, crossing our fingers for a successful mission.
To see if she succeeds, you'll have to pick up a copy of Crazy, Wicked Love for yourselves to see. This reader isn't dishing out spoilers like MREs!
Though this was my first dive into Melissa's The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside series, I'm 1001% certain it won't be my last. Both Melissa, Gunner and Sidney have me firmly in their ranks, and I'm part of the gang from here on out. Until the next book, ride on!
Five stars for Melissa, Gunner & Sidney!
