His Wicked Ways by Melissa Foster

Taken from Goodreads:  Blaine Wicked is used to women doing as he says in and out of the bedroom. Find out happens when he falls for the one woman who won't submit to his wicked ways in the newest insanely sexy, deeply emotional, and laugh-out-loud funny standalone romance by New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster.

Blaine Wicked can spot trouble a mile away. As the eldest of five and raised in a Dark Knights biker family, he has always been a protector. Rescuing a stripper from a bad situation comes with the territory, regardless of the hell the mouthy, slightly awkward, and seriously hot leggy blonde gives him for it. She’s far too innocent to bend to his wicked ways, but the more he learns about her, the harder it is for him to walk away.

Forensic scientist Reese Wilder never imagined herself as the entertainment at a bachelor party, but she’d do anything to keep food on the table for her teenage sister. With their mess of a mother in rehab—Third time’s a charm, right?—Reese is stuck paying off their mother’s debt to a dealer and trying to make ends meet. Reese has had it rough, and she knows better than to rely on anyone for help, much less a pushy biker with piercing blue eyes who probably has dozens of women at his beck and call.

The more flames Reese throws, the more determined Blaine is to walk through them. The closer he gets, the hotter they burn—and the more curious she becomes. But Blaine Wicked has the power to torch Reese’s walls to embers, and with her sister’s well-being at stake, that’s a risk she can’t afford to take.

 

My Thoughts:  If you have ever blushed while reading a book, this book will make you blush more.  The sexy scenes have a heat level that should melt the pages and the sweet scenes should have you feeling all the love and respect the characters have for each other.  

Blaine might be the ultimate protector of everyone.  He may think he cannot let himself be romantic and sweet, but he is so wrong.  His heart is opening and letting Reese in.  Reese has had nothing but bad luck in her life, starting with being born to parents that do not take care of her.  Her self-reliance is the only thing she can rely on.  Until she meets Blaine. 

In true Melissa Foster style, the characters are phenomenal.  The friendships are amazing. The storyline was one that I could not stop reading.  I am always excited to visit Bayside and The Dark Knights to catch up with past characters and meeting the new ones.

Thank you Melissa Foster for a copy of the book in exchange for my honest review.
