Description

THE WICKED AFTERMATH is an emotionally gripping story of love, loss, and hope, with a rich and entrancing happily ever after. All Wicked novels may be enjoyed as stand-alone romances.

When the person you blame for your grief is the only one who can save you from the pain...
Tank Wicked lost his sister and has since vowed to save everyone else in his path. He lives by the creed of the Dark Knights motorcycle club, sworn to protect and respect his community. He selflessly saves lives as a volunteer firefighter and treats the men and women who work for him at his tattoo shop like family. But life isn’t a balance scale where good deeds negate bad things to come, and one foggy night life guts Tank once again. When a car careens over the side of a bridge and into a river, Tank springs into action, plunging into the water to rescue the passengers. Four people go into the river, but only three come out alive.

Leah Yates is just trying to make it through each day. When the man she blames for her grief becomes the only one who can pull her from the depths of despair, she discovers that even hope comes at a price. Maybe this time she won't have to face it alone.

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. Some of the Wickeds’ love stories will be hilariously fun and deeply emotional, others will tear at your heartstrings and include injections of humor, but they will all leave you wishing you could climb between the pages and join them. All Wicked novels may be enjoyed as standalone romances.

    Tank and Leah takes us an emotional roller coaster. Make sure you have your tissues. Tank and the Wicked clan have taken Leah in as their own and make sure that Leah and the girls are taken care of. Everyone needs a little Tank in their life.

    The Wicked Aftermath by Melissa Foster has the biggest range of emotions I have ever experienced in a romance book. Tank and Leah’s story absolutely touched my soul. Both Leah and Tank have experienced the absolute worst of emotional and quite frankly, life altering events. I was absolutely gutted by these events and then watched how the author put Tank and Leah back together along with myself as well. The entire cast of The Wicked Aftermath were so well developed and heartfelt, they are amazing. Leah’s two little girls absolutely stole Tank’s heart and mine too! The emotion and passion just flew off the pages with this story. Melissa Foster is a master at emotional, funny, sexy, and quite steamy stories. Her characters are smart, funny, handsome, beautiful (inside and out), and very sexy. Melissa’s heroes are sexy, handsome alpha’s with the masterful ability to talk dirty in the most sexy way. Completely recommend The Wicked Aftermath by Melissa Foster. I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. *****
  • Heartbreaking and Heartmending, all at the same time

    I've been waiting for Tank's book! He's been so quiet and seemingly grumpy every time we see him and I couldn't wait to meet the woman who would be his match. I was NOT disappointed. Leah and Tank's story is one of heartbreak and sadness, of bonding over grief, yet it's so much more. It's a story of hope and family and belonging. Watching Tank take care of this little family and the two cutest little girls I've ever read made me feel all warm and tingly. And the way that Leah found a place for herself after tragedy broke my heart. This book made me cry in the best way possible. Melissa broke me a little and put me back together, just like Tank and Leah. I loved this one.

    The Wicked Aftermath is an emotional journey with heart gripping moments that even through your tears you find times to smile. There is Sunshine even when there is heartache, never forget. Tank Wicked is a well built man with a huge heart, we see that throughout The Wicked Aftermath, with Leah, Cheeky girl and Twitch his family and friends. I felt his pain dealing with his loss, his love for his family. The one person Tank is the hardest on is himself. Leah Yates life is about to take a complete turn. Leah is the bravest of women, she is fierce, compassionate, talented and when she loves its forever. Leah’s life has had a lot of pain, but with her latest tragedy that literally brings her to her knees. How can she move on? Where do I start with this hero and heroine? There are so many layers too them both. Tank & Leah worlds connected the moment Leah starts working at the Salty Hog, they just don’t realize how connected they were. Melissa Foster creates such amazing moments with her hero’s and heroine’s, but let me tell you my heart stopped and started so many times throughout The Wicked Aftermath for Tank , Leah, River, Junie and Rosie. Through all they endured is it possible to find a new beginning for them all? The supporting characters were amazing as always. Tank’s family, his employees and his biker friends all made it so easy to connect and love them. I enjoy seeing how easily they all welcomed Leah, Junie, Rosie and River into their extended family. The Dark knights love is not just for family and friends, it reaches out to everyone within their community. As always I enjoy visiting with all the families from previous books in The Wickeds: Dark Knights at Bayside Series , but I have to say next to Tru Blue, The Wicked Aftermath is one of the most heart wrenching story lines I have read by Melissa Foster, but with that being said I am blessed too watch the families heal and grow from all that transpires within their lives. I just wished I could rate this book higher, it was that wonderful. I will be screaming from the roof tops about The Wicked Aftermath for a long time. Rated 5 Stilettos and a Recommended Read by Deb !

    The Wicked Aftermath is the story of Tank and Leah. Tank owns a tattoo shop and volunteers on the fire dept. Leah is a single mom of 2 girls and her brother. She waitresses at the Wicked's bar/restaurant. We saw in A Little Bit Wicked that there was some chemistry between these two. When tragedy strikes Leah is left devastated. Tank steps up take care of her and her daughters even though he has his own past tragedy. I ugly cried, laughed and swooned. You get all the feels with this one and definitely will need kleenex. Junie and Rosie stole my heart from the start. They definitely have Tank wrapped around their little fingers. I highly recommend this book. Melissa Foster is the best!! I love ALL of her books but this one has jumped to the front of the line. She really deserves 1billion stars for this!!

    As is usual with Melissa Fosters books, I went through a rollercoaster of emotions! Gut wrenching tragedy brings Tank and Leah together, and the story brings you through the many layers of grief, showcases the strength of a large family and leads to HEA. I fall in love with each new book Melissa Foster releases

    This book is one of my top five favorite books! I must warn you though that you will need a box of Kleenex while reading the book. That being said, I laughed so much in this book too mostly due to two little girls named Junie and Rosie. I fell in love with them as did all the characters in the book. Ms. Foster did such an excellent job of writing the book that I was part of the book. Leah was such a strong woman for all she went through as a young adult. I was so glad she had the Wicked family to show her and those two little girls so much love. I was especially glad they came into Tank’s life. Tank had ghosts that still haunted him and I was so happy to see Leah and the girls bring Tank back to life again. I could just see this big, intimidating man dressing up in feminine clothes because of those two little girls. This book will touch your heart in so many ways. You must read it! I was given a copy of this book and voluntarily wrote a review.
  • AMAZING!!!

    This book may just be my favorite MF book to date. I don’t even know the right words to explain this story other than to say it moved me. It hit right at the core of how we all feel about loss and grief. Seeing how Tank and his family and friends were there for Leah and her little family brought tears to my eyes. All the sweet things Tank did for the girls and ALL the dirty things Tank did for Leah made this story amazing!!!
  • 5.0 out of 5 stars The Wicked Aftermath, a must Read!

    At first I was not sure I should read this book, but from the moment that I started to read “The Wicked Aftermath” I was drawn to the characters and I couldn't put the book down! We meet Tank Wicked who on the outside is an intimidating man (size, tattoos, piercings) until you get to know him then you realize he is a kind, gentle soul. Then you meet Leah Yates, a shy, quiet, private young woman with a southern accent that likes to keep to herself. From the start of the book you could feel how drawn Tank and Leah were to each other but neither are sure of how to approach the other until one fateful night - a devastating accident that leads to a beginning. Friendship, loyalty, trust, family and love are words to describe The Wicked Aftermath. I would recommend reading this book but be sure to have tissues ready!
