There's nothing Truman Gritt won't do to protect his family - including spending years in jail for a crime he didn't commit. 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.

I moved to Chicago six months ago, determined to finally open my own bakery. My landlady was this sweet woman who treated me like her granddaughter. Then she sold the house. Now the devil himself is my landlord and neighbor, since I live in the guesthouse on his property. Declan Maxwell is moody, unreasonable, and takes himself far too seriously. Unfortunately for me, he’s also damn sexy. Then one day I come home injured from work and he surprises me by taking care of me. And kissing me.

In one second, my life disappeared. My past. My memories. My future. The only certainty I have from the last three years is that my older brother is dead and that I am the only eyewitness. In order to protect the case, the lawyers demand no one give me any information about my life...I must remember on my own. My only help comes from my brother’s best friend and world-renowned investigative reporter Spencer Cross. He has no idea how many nights I’ve spent dreaming of his name—and his body—next to mine. Each day we spend together, I find it harder to want my old life back.

Being a veteran quarterback means I’m a mentally alert, fine-tuned athletic machine who can make split-second decisions. It’s my job to anticipate what’s going to happen next. But I couldn’t have anticipated the death of our beloved team owner, or his estranged daughter, Hannah Strong, inheriting the Boston Tomcats. She’s stubborn, uptight, infuriating, and wrong about absolutely everything. I can’t stop arguing with her. Or thinking about her. And I don’t want to talk about how good she looks in a skirt. Or how good she’d look out of it. Really, I don’t.

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.

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.

Crazy Wicked Love
Melissa Foster is the queen of friends to lover troupe, with such a close nit world of her characters its impossible for friends not to become lovers over time.
Crazy Wicked Love sees the player get played and a plan snare said player almost fall through! Sidney and Gunner have spent a lot time together, in the military, in their jobs, heck they are even roommates but they have never shared so much as a kiss or their bed together!
Sid isn’t exactly sure when her feelings began to change towards Gunner, but since he has a revolving door or girls coming and going she also isn’t exactly sure how to make her feelings know to him. She is the polar opposite to the girls he brings home. She is terrified that once she crosses this line it may ruin everything they have together.
Gunner is a player by all accounts, and he see’s sid as his best friend. He would lying if he never saw her as anything more but like Sid he didn’t want to cross that line, but his jealous side emergers when Sid asks him to help her learn to flirt to get a guy she has her eyes on. Seeing her flirt with other guys especially his cousin makes him almost see the light, and see her more as a friend, work colleague and roommate.
Do Gunner and Sid risk it all and find their happy ever after? This is of course a Foster book so you already know the answer to that! This story has it all, strong family and friend connections, an undeniable love connection and a whole cast if furry friends that you will just fall in love with also.

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. *****

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.

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!

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.

Friends to lovers
What a great story of two people who are best friends, roommates and working partners and they finally maneuver to be each others ride or die person. Sidney and Gunner have been in dangerous situations, have been there in the tough times but Sid wants more. She loves Dwayne "Gunner" Wicked but he only sees her a a buddy and friend, not as a woman so she must do what she has to in order to get his attention or she must move on from his life. Gunner loves Sid but he has never wanted to risk what they have on the chance of something more. When he thinks he may loose her to another man he finally opens his eyes to what's been there all along.
Love these characters and this entire family. This was a really good story and I enjoyed it and recommend it.
Ava Erikson and Jacob Morgan were great to listen to. They brought what was needed for Sid and Gunner.

Good addition to this series
This was a great friends to lovers read that Ms. Foster does a great job of creating. This addition to the Dark Knights Bayside series is no exception either. In this book we get Gunner and Sidney's story and what a great read it was. '
Gunner and Sidney are friends while serving in the military and that friendship continued once they were out of the service as well. The pair open a dog rescue together once their time in the service ends - one through retirement and one through injured discharge. Their friendship continues until Sidney decides that she wants to be seen as more than just a friend and takes measures to be seen by Gunner as more.
Gunner who always looked at Sidney as his friend goes on one roller coaster ride of emotions when he realizes that he wants more. The banter between the pair is fun and the chemistry once they give into it is off the charts.
The narration that was performed by Jacob Morgan and Ava Erikson was performed well. This pair of narrators do a great job bringing the stories that they read to life and truly make them an enjoyable listening experience.
This was a great read and a great addition to this series. I enjoyed the return of the characters from the previous series and I look forward to seeing what is to come in the future for this series. Overall, I recommend this book to others.

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*
