Taken from Goodreads:  Zander Wicked lives life fast, on his bike, on the job, and with women. But one split second shatters his world and forces him to face truths he’s spent a lifetime outrunning. His family doubts he can change, but Zander knows better, and when the woman who helped save him needs more than a little help herself, he sets out to prove everyone wrong.

Shauna Flores knows what it means to fight for survival. As an EMT and a person in recovery, she’s rebuilt her life piece by piece while carrying the weight of a best friend she refuses to give up on. The last thing she expects is to end up bound to a man like Zander Wicked, or to find herself in a marriage of convenience that blurs every line between right and wrong.

Two people with checkered pasts, an arrangement that ties them together, and a future neither sees coming—one that will test their limits, their loyalties, and the lengths they’re willing to go to for the people they love.

My Thoughts:  Holy hotness.  I am a Melissa Foster fan and have read all her books so far and this one is  the steamiest yet.   I could not get enough of Zander Wicked.  His alpha protectiveness is just what Shauna Flores needs, even though she may not have thought so. 

Irresistibly Wicked is so perfect.  I love the main characters, but I love just as much the appearance of other characters from past books in this series.  It was fun to hear about relationships, babies, weddings, etc. and catch up with the going on of the Dark Knight family.   Each book in this series it’s own complete story with different main characters, but the characters from past books make appearances as secondary characters. 

Thank you to the author for a copy of the book in exchange for my honest review.
