Wicked
He went to prison for protecting her.
Now, he’ll do anything to keep her alive.
Ten years ago, Yates “Wicked” Harris witnessed a crime against a young woman and intervened. While she considered him her hero, the world classified him as a monster. The moment he’s released, Wicked makes a promise to provide and protect and ensure no one will ever touch her again.
Ten years ago, Jelai Williams learned the difference between a man who saw her as prey and a man who knew she was worthy of protection. The sacrifice Wicked made carved a space in her heart for him and him alone. Regardless of how many people tried to keep her away from him, her love and loyalty never lessened, and both bloomed when he was released from prison.
Ignoring cautionary tales of Wicked’s motorcycle club and warnings to stay away from them all, Jelai allows herself to experience the man who temporarily gave up his freedom for her. As their connection deepens, so does the danger. The Wilted Roses are being targeted, and they are sure it’s because of Wicked’s return and his forbidden relationship with Jelai. Every touch, every kiss, every secret date reminds them of what they could have… and what they could lose.
Will Wicked & Jelai have a real shot at happily ever after, or will he be taken away from her permanently the second time around?

Wicked was a real look...
May 2, 2026
This was a good read. I loved that time, distance and outside influences couldn’t keep Jelai and Wicked apart. Their love story was quick and intense, and the connection between them felt soul deep.
What I really liked about Wicked was how fiercely protective he was. He made it clear from the start that once he was in, he was all in. “I’d go to war with the devil himself to keep her safe.” That pretty much sums him up. And Wicked runs a strict program! We love a “What did I say?” kind of MMC.
There were definitely some shenanigans along the way, plus a couple of mysteries to unravel that kept me engaged. If you’re new to this author’s work, she does lean more toward telling, and most of the relationship development happens off page. Even so, it still felt like a complete story.
Overall, this is a good read you can easily devour in one afternoon

Jelai and Wick
I enjoyed watching the love story develop between Jelai and Wick. He loved her quietly for years and showed her every time he got a chance. Great way to start the series off.

Wicked had me hooked from page one!
This book right here?? Whew. A certified five-star ride from beginning to end. Wicked is the first installment in the B. Love Presents motorcycle club series, and babyyy it absolutely sets the tone for everything that follows.
Wicked spending ten years in prison to protect Jelai and her honor already had me emotionally invested, but the fact that he carried her in his heart that entire time? Yeah… B. Love knew exactly what she was doing with this story. His determination to come home and finally make Jelai his added such an intense layer of devotion and tension to the romance.
And the drama? Top tier. The conflict between the Outlaws and the Wilted Roses kept the pages turning nonstop. Every time I thought things might settle down, another twist or revelation pulled me deeper into the chaos. This story had loyalty, sacrifice, passion, danger, and enough emotional weight to keep me fully locked in.
Definitely a five-star read for me, and the perfect way to kick off a motorcycle club series.

Wicked and Jelai!!
Wicked and Jelai had a thing for each other since they were younger. Wicked protected Jelai from a predator which cost him ten years of his life in prison. Once he is released, Wicked is determined to finally be with Jelai no matter who disapproved. Jelai also wasn't going to let anyone stand in the way of her being with the love of her life either. The protection that Wicked showed Jelai when they were teens as well as in later years was something that I loved about him. I also loved his determination and the way he showed his love for Jelai. The chemistry, danger, secrets and treachery in the book made this book so interesting that I hated for it to end. B. Love has written another great book that I strongly urge you to read!!

Wicked
Y'all know that I love an MC story, and wicked did not disappoint. It gave me all the feels of a good protector.
Wicked has loved Jelai since he was fifteen, so after serving a ten year bid for killing the man who tried to rape her, he's back on home with his foot on the gas. To discover that Jelai loves him just as much, they make it official. However, her godfather Chris is in the background stirring the pot.
He warns Jelai away from Wicked never telling her why, but just to stay away. In the end, everything comes to a head, and you will have to read the book to find out.
As always, B. Love does her thing. This is a great beginning to the series.

Wicked
This was a nice start to the BLP MC series. I loved how protective Wicked was over Jelai. Their love started off young and from afar because they were forbidden from being together but Wicked said he wasn’t allowing that to stand after what he sacrificed to save Jelai. I was happy to see them get there happily ever after.
There were parts of the story that were predictable, but the story was still enjoyable and kept my attention and interest from beginning to end.

This was fun
Loved wicked and jelai story. There loved spanned a 10 year sentence and it was like time never passed between them. The way wicked was down bad for his girl was too cute, he literally loved her more them himself and that's all we could ask for. I will say that i called Chris being dirty cop from jump cause didn't make since how he felt bout wicked since he saved jelai, he should have bee greatful and accepting. it always fun reading a motorcylce romance book.

Love it
I love the way Wicked was the saver for his woman. He showed how he would protect her no matter what. It took him going to prison for killing someone who wanted to do harm to her. I am glad they got the chance to grow and love each other.
I also love that they found out who killed her father.
I would recommend the book.

True love
It's crazy what all Wicked and Jelai had been through since kids to be together but so glad they got through them obstacles and finally could love each other in peace. I was shocked what Chris did but I'm kinda not surprised because his hate for Wicked was too strong. This read was really good and I enjoyed it.

Wicked didn’t play
Jelai and Wicked had a special kind of love! They’ve been smitten with each other for years. That bid or their people disdain didn’t stop it. This was a nice story.

Her protector
Yates did not play about Jelai. That boy put a grown man to rest with his bare hands. Ten years later he reclaimed his love. Warning be darn. At all cost anyone can get it and she was no different behind him.
I enjoyed this one because I love a good MC.

Ok, ok, i'm not usually a big fan of this author's work and I am not going to talk about why Wicked had dreads in the book and has a high top fade on the cover.🤭 But I will say this was great start to the series! 🤏🏽🤏🏽🤏🏽

This is what love looks like
This is what love looks like. Wicked, ever the gentleman, was Jelai’s protector first and always. She knew this to be true always. Their story was heartwarming and their bond was unbreakable.

nonetheless

Wicked had me smitten at the first blow he threw defending Jelai. It’s funny how well they complimented each other 10 years later!
