Entering a bar to take a phone call sports agent Tiffany Winters unwittingly crashes the wedding of a fellow agent. Catching the eye of the bars sexy owner Dylan Bad. Sparks fly and both have a scratch that needs to be itched. Will Dylan settle for a "one and done"? Does Tiffany have room in her busy life for more?

Filled with humor, romance, family, and love. This one is not to be missed...

Honestly, this was one fabulous little book. It was well written. The plot flowed nicely. It had smoking hot sex scenes. A very likable hero. An amazing cast of secondary characters. All in all, this SHOULD have been a 5-star read for me.

Alas, the heroine drove me NUTS for the first half of the book. I am VERY picky about my heroines and I am not crazy about aggressive and hard, and seemingly selfish ones. I literally wanted to reach into the book and take that phone and shove it up her @ss. That said, she does soften up A LOT in the second half and that saved her character for me. Just not enough to push this into perfect territory.

Other than that small foible this was a really enjoyable read. I'm looking forward to reading the other brothers books. So two big thumbs up for yours truly.

I'm in love with the way that Melissa Foster writes. I'm still kicking myself over how long it took me to discover her work! I have fallen for every one of her male characters that I've read so far and Dylan was no different. He was strong yet vulnerable, cocky and considerate, fun-loving and compassionate, and did I mention an incredibly sexy dirty-talker??? Damn, but his mouth alone made even me HOT!! I could only be so luck to find a man as fine as Dylan *sigh*

Tiffany was an ice princess. With a host of abandonment issues, she had molded herself into an ambitious, control freak of a workaholic. She had little to no personal life, kept everyone at a distance (including her family), and had her phone permanently attached to her hand. She never turned it off and made herself available to her clients 24/7. But you know what they say about all work and no play? Dylan was just the remedy necessary for her life. He was hot and awesome enough to incinerate her walls. He also had his own baggage but somehow had a better handle on creating balance in his life.

Together, Dylan and Tiffany work on themselves, each other, build trust, and grow as a couple. This story was hot, enjoyable, entertaining, heartwarming, and beautiful!

BAD BOYS AFTER DARK: DYLAN is the second book in the Bad Boys After Dark series. You don’t necessarily need to read this series in order to enjoy them, but since the heroes are all brothers, it’s nice to know who they are because they do make frequent appearances in the books.

This series is considered the more hotter books she writes. They’re a tad more erotic so you can expect her to jump into the sex a little more quicker. I don’t mind this but what really makes this book for me is that there’s more going on than just the hot sex. This is Dylan and Tiffany’s book and it would’ve been so easy for Foster to wrap up the book within the first chapter but instead of having both character jump into bed together after one simple flirty moment at the bar, she takes a step back and brings in the emotional part of the book.

It was at this part of this book that I really came to appreciate Foster and her writing. There are so many erotic series out there that have hot sex but no substance behind it at all and at first I worried that this series would be like that, but Foster has just proven that her books are above all that because she knew exactly when to pull back and insert something that not only deepens the character’s personality but also turns this book into a one-dimensional smutty read to a hot love story instead. I was really impressed by this because to be honest, I feel like nine times out of ten, other authors would’ve just gone in for the sex without adding that emotional aspect to the story.

So if you’re in the mood for a hot read, but want one that’s actually fully-formed and well-written, look no further because Melissa Foster has you covered.

Tiffany Winters is the exact opposite of the women Dylan Bad normally pursues. She's focused on building her business and has no time for a relationship. Her pursuit is to become the top sports agent in New York; not succumb to the charms of the sexy as sin bar owner who hits on her.
What happens when a sexy bar owner with a thing for submissive women falls hard for a controlling man-eater? You’ll have to read it to find out!

There are a few things I can always count on from Melissa Foster: excellent writing, a sexy hero, steamy romance, and fantastic secondary characters. She delivered all that and more in the 2nd installment of her Bad Billionaires After Dark series. The story is engaging, funny, sexy, and emotional. I’ve read a LOT of books by this author and really enjoyed them all, but I’ve never loved a hero this much.

 photo Dylan 2.jpg

Dylan is definitely BBF material.

“As he sent her a good-night text – ‘You’re my ten, summer girl. Sweet dreams’ – he knew that even if Winters suited her just fine at the moment, she’d always be his summer girl.”

He’s sexy, sweet, sends good night texts, and even has the perfect nickname for Tiffany Winters. She’s his summer girl. SWOON!


As for Tiffany Winters, she wasn’t my favorite M.F. heroine. She’s a tad too hard and controlling for me. When we first meet her, she’s glued to her cellphone and described as “a cutthroat negotiator who ate men for breakfast”. Not only does she not believe in relationships; she solely wants to focus on work. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for strong women handling their business. A woman striving to be the best at her chosen profession (I’m one of them) is admirable; but Tiffany is a bit OTT in her pursuit to become the top sports agent in New York. Thankfully, the reader gets more insight into her life as the book progresses. After that I understood what caused her drive. Again, nod to the excellent writing and fantastic character development. It really made the difference for me. As I began to understand Tiffany’s character more, she slowly began to grow on me. Eventually she mellows out and allows herself to love.

 photo Dylan 1.jpg

Overall, this is a solid 4 star read. The secondary characters and family dynamics provide an emotional element that I really enjoyed. More than a steamy read, this book is sweet and very well rounded. It’s fantastically executed. I definitely recommend it.

I enjoyed this book. I thought the characters were real, and they were well developed.

Tiffany is a sports agent who is fully engaged with her job...to the point where it consumes almost every waking hour (and likely has woken her in the middle of the night more than once). She needs to learn the balance of having someone in her life while also being able to have her career.

Dylan owns a bar, is hit on by women on a nightly basis, and is looking for one woman to settle down with. One who he can build a life with.

Tiffany is convinced that her crazy life as a sports agent and the one Dylan wants, with a woman who will commit to him, are too much of a conflict for them to ever work out. And more than once she expects her life and commitments to end the relationship that they were building.

The writing was strong overall, but there were parts of the story where I thought the narrative dragged a little bit, that there were a couple of times where something not as important got more time than something that was of more importance.

Overall, I do recommend this book.

You guuuuuuuuuuuuys, THIS story .... THESE people .... ohhhhhhh ***happy sigh***

I don't even have words for Dylan. He is the perfect man. And Tiffany .... such a driven and powerful woman. As the story unfolds, it is amazeballs how perfect these two are for each other. They are the other half to each other that would complete them. And they were super sexy together! There are very few books out there that are the total package, and this is one of them.

The story of Dylan and Tiffany is one of growth and acceptance. It's one of maturity, letting go and grabbing on. It's a story SO full of heart that yours might just burst when you read it. I know mine did!

I know I've said this in the past, but I'll say it again .... Melissa Foster is an author that delivers! Her plot-lines are solid and her characters are true. I haven't read every book she has ever written, but I've read enough that I can honestly say you will never go wrong with one of her stories! #TRUST

I really liked Tiffany and Dylan's story. Tiffany is a tough as nails sports agent who has very little time in her life. When Dylan promises a night that will make her forget her phone she jumps at the opportunity to be with him but with Dylan will one time be enough?


Foster brings humor, romance family and opposites together nicely. From the beginning Dylan and Tiffany had off the charts chemistry not to mention some really hot love scenes.

I have to admit Tiffany was really aggressive at first and I wasn't sure I was going to like her but as the story started to progress I started to warm up to her and began to understand why she started off the way she did at the beginning. Dylan was likable from the moment he was introduced. He doesn't come off as cocky but confident in not only his business ventures but his sexual powers in the bedroom.


I enjoyed Dylan and I swear every time a book is released I say that hero is my favorite so I can't wait to read about the rest of the brothers!

I got this book for a blog tour organised by Xpresso Book Tours

The first thing that came into my mind when I signed up for this tour was that this book would be sexy, hot and everything that a erotic novel must be, to be more precise I never expected the story to stand out well. But, well, I was proved wrong.

The story starts on the night of Mick, Dylan's brother's wedding, where he meets Tiffany and they agree to a one night stand, no strings attached. But slowly the circumstances change and they start falling for each other.

Sometimes we face some unfortunate circumstances, which changes our perspective towards life, love and friendship, that happened to Tiffany too, so she guarded herself, engrossed herself in work, and never allowed herself to go into a relationship, because she didn't want to face everything yet again, pain and anguish. Then enters Dylan, he always thought that he got attracted only to needy women, but one night with Tiffany (actually two) and he understood that they are not over yet. He understood Tiffany, her obsession with work, he never asked her to change. He made her believe that sometimes it is okay to lose control, give some time to herself. But to top it all he made her give love a second chance. I would say that all was not one sided, they both complimented each other. Dylan opened up before Tiffany, told her everything, about his sister's death, and she understood, she made him cope with the issue in a better way. Bad brothers who never talked about there sister's death, came upfront with the issue and made her dream come true.

Tiffany, Dylan and every other small character had their own share of events that made this story a awesome read, but the love story, was just bang on, their dialogues, their make out session, everything got me captivated. It was too hard to put it down. Actually I have saved this novel for a second read. Someday I will definitely read it again. The day I would lose my trust on love, this novel would surely rejuvenate it.

What happens when a chance encounter, that is supposed to be a one time thing, turns into something more??

What happens when you have two people who have sworn off love and relationships find they have more in common than they thought??

Get those answers by reading Bad Boys After Dark : DYLAN by Melissa Foster.

Melissa did it again….she gave us another Alpha Hero who won over the independent, strong heroine. Bad Boys After Dark : Dylan was another fun, sexy and entertaining love story. I have read many books by Melissa Foster, but it was her Bad Boys Series that started me off. Dylan’s story is the second book in this standalone series. Mick’s story is book 1. I have really come to love reading Melissa’s books. Her storylines are entertaining without being repetitive. Her characters are relatable and lovable. I thought the flow of this story was perfect, but I did find the pace was a tad slow in certain parts, but it didn’t take away from my enjoyment of this story. As we saw in Book 1, she gave us another HOT DIRTY Talking Alpha Hero….Dylan will definitely melt your panties ;)

What I love about her books is that each of the couples are adults and I love that they handle everyday issues like mature people. They don’t run away or do some of the other things we tend to see in Contemporary Romance Novels. They work through their problems together. In this book, we follow Dylan and Tiffany’s story. Dylan is Mick’s brother and he owns a bar. Dylan is usually attracted to women who need saving, but when he crosses paths with Tiffany, he learns that being the Knight in Shining Armor might not be who he really is. Tiffany is a big time sports agent who has been seriously hurt in the past and has decided to not be open to love and put her whole heart into her career. That is until she stumbles across Dylan Bad. Little did she know, he doesn’t take NO for an answer. I loved watching both Dylan and Tiffany grow into better people as the story went on. I loved watching them open themselves up.

I would 100% recommend this book to anyone looking for that afternoon escape with a totally HOT and wicked Alpha Male. Trust me you will want to get to know Dylan and Tiffany. I look forward to reading Carson and Brett’s books in the future.

BOOK REVIEW: Bad Boys After Dark: Dylan
BOOK SERIES: Bad Boys After Dark #2
AUTHOR: Melissa Foster
GENRE: Contemporary Romance
PUBLICATION DATE: December 21, 2016
CLIFF HANGER: No
4 Stars

*This story is for mature audiences only. Contains explicit scenes and language intended for adults 18+

SYNOPSIS:
The Bad Billionaires After Dark are a series of stand-alone romances that may also be enjoyed as part of the larger Love in Bloom series.

Indulge your inner vixen with these sexy billionaires!

Meet the Bad Boys... Four fiercely loyal, sinfully sexy, uber alpha brothers, about to fall head over heels for their leading ladies.

Everything's naughtier after dark...

Sinfully sexy bar owner Dylan Bad has a thing for needy women. He’s a savior, a knight in shining armor, and his mighty talented sword has no trouble bringing damsels in distress to their knees. Enter Tiffany Winters, a gorgeous cutthroat sports agent who looks like sex on legs, f**ks like she’s passion personified, and wouldn’t let a man help her if she were dangling from a ledge and he was her only hope. One night and too much tequila might change their lives forever. The question is, will either one survive?

MY THOUGHTS:
This book was a sweet, hot, sexy read! Whew! I have read a few of this authors books and they were hot, but holy hotness, this was scorching!

This story is such a great journey of finding love, opening yourself up to trust, learning to let go and enjoy life and the people in it. I enjoyed every minute of this story. Dylan was sweet, caring, romantic, but he was all alpha. He is an amazing character and you can’t help but fall in love with him and his personal story.

Tiffany is strong with her drive to be the best at her career of being a sports agent. She’s involved in a male dominated career, but she one of the top agents, as she isn’t in it only for the love of sports, but because she feels the clients need to have someone to get them what they want and what their families want. She protects them and is available for them 24/7. She has no life other than work. She rarely has time for family and definitely no time for relationships.

Dylan and Tiffany’s journey is a beautiful love story and I loved to see how their characters developed and their love develop! Their story is honest, sexy and so touching. They both have secrets that need to be told and they learn together what the meaning of love and life is together.

If you want an amazing, beautiful and very HOT love story, then this is the book for you! I highly recommend it!

It’s no secret that Melissa Foster writes amazing and swoon worthy alpha males. Her Bad Boys After Dark Series takes it one step further. In this series, we still get those swoon worthy and sexy as hell alpha males, but the steam and sexy times is definitely taken up a notch.

Bad Boys After Dark: Dylan follows the story of Dylan and Tiffany. Dylan is the sinful bar owner who is about to knock Tiffany off of her feet. While Dylan usually goes for those women that are the damsel in distress type, there is just something about Tiffany that he can’t resist. She is known as a badass sports agent, who isn’t afraid to take risks and go after what she wants. She is passionate in all aspects of her life. And for Dylan, she might be the biggest game changer yet….

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. I loved the pacing and the story-line. I fell head over heels for the characters upon first meeting. I thought their chemistry was outstanding and I was excited to see how their story was going to go. I thought that Dylan and Tiffany balanced each other out pretty well. Dylan was sexy, sweet and an overall sensitive guy. That being said, he certainly didn’t shy from his alpha tendencies and wasn’t about to miss an opportunity with Tiffany. And Tiffany was hard, definitely a strong female character and in her own way, very much an alpha female. Together these two are just explosive and unforgettable.

Bad Boys After Dark: Dylan is a fantastic addition to the Bad Boys After Dark Series. This book was well written, smart and super sexy. And I loved every moment of it. I can’t wait to see who’s story is going to be told next!!

Bad Boys After Dark
Dylan

In this instalment of Bad boys after dark we meet Dylan and Tiffany who met, and deciding to hook up for sex one time and for one night only. As we know, it wouldn’t a romance if only happened only once.
As always with a Melissa Foster romance they can be picked up and read as standalone, but if you follow the series you get to meet characters from other books. I have a new book boyfriend called Dylan, he was sexy hot hunk of male and I want him. Unfortunately he fell for Tiffany, almost lust at first sight. Tiffany was a hard woman for Dylan to make an impression on. Tiffany is a hard nosed sports agent and growing up in a house with her father a retired Football player and two brothers in the sport she has learn to play hard ball.
This is a great love story, which takes hard work on both sides to make it work.
I loved it, and can’t wait for more stories about the Bad Brothers. As always Melissa Foster never fails to hit the spot. I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

3.5 STARS

This book is crazy hot and full of steamy sexy times!
Melissa Foster excells at writing crazy hot guys and steamy sexy times that will melt your kindle and burn your fingers. And her Bad Boys After Dark series is hot hot hot!
Dylan isn't your typical bad boy, he's a bad boy who's ready to settle for the one girl who makes his blood pump even though she's not his usual type. Dylan pursues her with single minded focus.
Tiffany isn't ready to settle into a real relationship, she tried that once and it didnt work. But Dylan trips all her triggers and he's sweet and understanding. But all men are until they turn on you...right?
I enjoyed this book, its light and sweet. Easy on the angst and drama scale as far as romance goes. Dylan and Tiffany has chemistry to spare though.
I've read other books by this author and have loved everything I've read. This book however left me feeling like there was something missing.
For a sweet, sexy read that'll leave you feeling warmer under the collar, Dylan is perfect.

Tiffany is one grabby woman, “keys,” he panted out, and shoved one hand in his pocket, holding her with the other. She cupped him through his jeans, earning a guttural groan. “Not my keys,” he said, smiling against her lips. She laughed and withdrew her hand..." Dylan has no filter, “just say it,” he said with a devilish grin. “My big ***k.” Dylan can get his point across real sexy-like, “ypu can thank me properly later.” He grabbed her *** to drive home the point..." I loved the sass that Tiffany had, “I’ll pony up when I’m good and ready.” She pushed her hand between them and cupped his balls, making him instantly hard. “Just checking to make sure my horse is ready for the ride.” She turned on her heels and strutted away, leaving Dylan hard, horny..." I really loved this bok, loved Dylan.

Getting to know a Melissa Foster character is like falling in love for the first time. At first meeting there are no flaws to push you away, only the beginning of something wonderful to lure the reader in. That belief that something special is about to happen is the feeling that Dylan and Tiffany embody as a unit and those complexities only get stronger in their moments of individuality. Tiffany is a ball buster with a killer work ethic and a briefcase full of demons. Dylan mixes his playboy status with a killer smile, a wicked bedside manner and a hero complex but behind all the gloss lies an edge of darkness that not many get to see up close. Sex, secrets and pride are as destructive as any explosive. Dylan needed to heal himself before he could offer help to anyone else. Dylan can be described in two words. Wickedly good.

I loved Mick...he was so hot, so I wasn't sure if Dylan could match him. But, boy oh boy, did I love this book.
Dylan may be Bad by name, but he's a sexy sweetheart by nature.
He has a really cheeky sense of humour, and I found myself chuckling quite often.
This book also has a really likeable heroine, Tiffany Winters, who is a hard nosed sports agent. She has gotten where she is by hard work, and always being available on her cell. Watching these two fall in love, and deal with each others foibles, was a treat.
Humour and romance...what's not to like?
I went silly for Dilly...and now I can't wait for Carson!

Bad boy Dylan heart, soul, character

Dylan bad find his eye being caught by one hellava woman at his brothers wedding in a bar. A bar of all place. He's looking for a solid night of hot sexy bed buring sex. For his evenings delight he has his eyes set on the one woman that could make him look tame in comparison. Tiffany Winters. She finds that her life revolves around her job. She only has time for hookups nothing long term for her. But she finds that this one man understand her more than she could have imagined any man doing.

These two separate people find other things they have in common. Family. Their strong bonds to their families make for a connection that provides each of them with that something more.

Melissa Foster provides us an unexpected romance with steamy, hot, sweaty passion and yes sex. Dylan and Tiffany makes for one hot scorching read.

Paul Woodson did a good job but there could have been better, more consistent feminine voices and more variance in the male voices. Sometimes not sure which characters dialogue was taking place.

Tiffany's job as a sports agent is time consuming. And she's good at her job. Unfortunately, work is all that she ever does and her love life is practically non-existent. A quick romp in the hay is all that she has time for these days and a real relationship just doesn't have a place in her itinerary.

Dylan is a hard worker, also. But he knows that while it's important to work hard, it's just as important to play hard, too. And when he sets his sights on Tiffany, he is faced with his biggest challenge yet. Breaking her out of her shell and getting her to open up, to him and to a less-stressful life, is a full-time job all of its own.

What begins as undeniable chemistry leads to lustful encounters and soon turns into a need on both sides for a little more than just physical enjoyment. As Dylan works to tear down the wall around Tiffany's heart, she fights against her instinct to shut him out and obsess over her work.

This was my first Melissa Foster book and the only one I've read of this series, thus far. We're introduced to Dylan and Tiffany, of course, but we also get to meet members of both families, as well. I don't necessarily have an opinion of most of the secondary characters because we really didn't spend enough time with any of them for me to form an opinion but I am open to reading more about them in other books of the series.

The plot was pretty good and I loved Dylan's healthy view of romance and relationships. I liked him from the beginning and his adorable little gifts and interactions with Tiffany were swoon-worthy. He was a fantastic male lead and I would read another entire book about him if I could.

Tiffany, I liked quite a bit at first. She was tough but honest and I can admire a woman who works for what she wants. I could tell from the first few chapters that she had trust and commitment issues to work through. Normally, I'm all for a flawed character who needs to do a bit of soul-searching before reaching their destination.

Unfortunately, I found that I grew tired of her journey that was laced with rudeness and self-absorption. In fact, pretty much the only conflict in this entire book was that of Tiffany trying to escape Dylan's affection. She protested so much that I mentally said, "Well, then just live a miserable life all by yourself!" I wanted to pull for her but she made it so hard.

The saving grace in this, for me, were the love scenes. Even though I knew Tiffany would deny her feelings the moment the sex was over, the actual love-making was spot on stupendous. I really enjoyed that element of the book and it's what helped me to accept the story in the end.

In closing...
I am curious to see how the other brothers find their happy endings (in more ways than one!). For this story, 3.5 suns!

Hello... my name is Danielle and I am a Melissa Foster fangirl. That is right. I am obsessed with all books that Melissa Foster writes, I LOVED this book. LOVED it. I admit, I love all her books, but this one was amazing and had me all giddy and squirming!! In a very good way!!

Tiffany is a sports agent. A women who rocks her job in a man's world. She is at the top of her game. A women who eats, sleeps and breathes work. That is why she is so successful. She doesn't have a life outside of work. When she slips into a wedding, unknowingly to take a phone call, her life changes forever.

In the bar, she meets Dylan.. He is the owner and brother of the groom. Bad boy who has yet to meet his match and has yet to have any female truly tame him. Dylan is hot, alpha and sweet as can be once you see his true colors. I want a Dylan!!


Tiffany has built walls around her. No one is allowed in. That doesn't stop Dylan from doing everything he can to get in.

This book had me laughing out loud at parts .... Tiffany showing up to Dylan's poker night...
Had me swooning.... Dylan taking Tiffany lunch and cabbing around NYC just to spend time with her...

And had me falling in love with the book the entire time I read it!!

This is one of my favorite books ever!!

Everything's naughtier after dark...

Sinfully sexy bar owner Dylan Bad has a thing for needy women. He’s a savior, a knight in shining armor, and his mighty talented sword has no trouble bringing damsels in distress to their knees. Enter Tiffany Winters, a gorgeous cutthroat sports agent who looks like sex on legs, f**ks like she’s passion personified, and wouldn’t let a man help her if she were dangling from a ledge and he was her only hope. One night and too much tequila might change their lives forever. The question is, will either one survive?

••••••

REVIEW: BAD BOYS AFTER DARK: DYLAN is the second installment in Melissa Foster’s contemporary, adult BAD BOYS AFTER DARK erotic, romance series focusing on the Bad brothers-Mick, Dylan, Carson and Brett Bad. This is bar owner Dylan Bad, and sports agent Tiffany Winters’s story line. BAD BOYS AFTER DARK: DYLAN can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Dylan and Tiffany) BAD BOYS AFTER DARK: DYLAN focuses on the building relationship between billionaire bar owner Dylan Bad, and professional sports agent Tiffany Winters. Tiffany is an independent agent; a strong, alpha woman who refuses to accept that she is incapable of having it all. On call 24/7, our heroine is attached to her phone, and no one or nothing will force Tiffany to choose including the man with whom she is falling in love. Meeting Dylan Bad pushes all of Tiffany’s boundaries as the man in question refuses to back down in his seduction of our story line heroine.

The relationship begins with an accidental meeting when Tiffany Winters crashes Mick Bad and Amanda Jenner’s (Mick #1) wedding. Tiffany wants to become the top agent in the field, and a relationship with Dylan isn’t in the cards. Dylan’s pursuit of Tiffany finds our heroine falling in love and changing the direction of her heart which is difficult under the circumstances as Tiffany’s continue pursuit of the ultimate client interferes in both her personal and professional life. Dylan’s seduction of Tiffany is beautiful, romantic and a little bit naughty. The $ex scenes are intimate and seductive without the use of over the top graphic imagery and language.

Mick and Amanda, as well as Dylan’s brother Carson and Brett play secondary and supporting roles as well as Tiffany’s brother Rocco Winters. We are introduced to Tiffany and Rocco’s father George ‘Gunner’ Winters; Tiffany’s assistant Miranda; and Dylan’s father Gerard Bad. As per Melissa’s writing style several characters cross over from other series and story lines.

The world building focuses on the building relationship between Dylan and Tiffany, and Dylan’s struggle to prove to Tiffany that love isn’t about the bottom line or the who and what of professional sports. Tiffany and Dylan both battle demons from their past but none more so than Tiffany who has felt abandoned for most of her life.

BAD BOYS AFTER DARK: DYLAN has moments of humor and adorable fun; romance and love; sexy times and erotic encounters. The premise is captivating and romantic; the characters are fun, colorful and animated but I will caution that Tiffany’s need to be independent makes the character difficult to like. The romance is passionate and tender. BAD BOYS AFTER DARK: DYLAN is an intoxicating blend of spirited pursuit and inspiring romance.

ARC received for an honest review

Firstly, I have not read the first Bad Boys After Dark story, but this does not affect my enjoyment of Dylan at all.

Firstly, as much as I loved Tiffany, at times I wanted to shake some sense into her... and perhaps shove that phone where the sun don't shine! I understand her why's, and I love nothing more than a strong woman who knows what she wants and stand up for it, but boy oh boy, with Dylan in her face, I don't know how she could focus on anything not him.

Dylan. Le sigh. He is just the right amount of bad boy, sex god and nice guy, all rolled in to one delicious package. He's a knight in shining... tool belt, all set to save Tiffany from herself.

And if Tiffany doesn't want him, I will take him off her hands.


The thing I really love about Ms Foster's books is the way she weaves all her different series together. There characters from 3 different series in this book, but you wouldn't know it just be this story.

One thing that irked me - and this is totally on me, nothing against Ms Foster, the story or the writing. Tiffany. The name to me conjured up images of an 80's valley girl, all like, like and stuff. No offense to any Tiffany's out there, it is just the picture that jumped in my head at the beginning and it wouldn't leave! Sorry!!

Dylan is a sweet, sexy, steamy romance about jaded hearts and knights in shining armour coming together (literally at times!) and finding a HEA... or do they?

Can't wait to go back and read the first Bad Boy story (Mick) and to see what Ms Foster brings us next with these boys.

When I don't have much time to read I judge the books more harshly. Maybe this is why I couldn't find myself falling for Dylan (I am talking about the book, not the character). I was disappointed with my last read and when the time to start reading Dylan came I was thrilled. Unfortunately the book didn't work for me as the other nine books I have read from this author. I might have gotten to used to Melissa Foster's less steamy books, but I got tired from all the sex talk of this book. Dylan was more than romancing Tiffany so not complains here, but this book felt like it was all about the sex. Another thing that threw me off was near the end of the book. There was a scene which reminded me strongly of a scene in Seaside Whispers. They are not exactly the same, but they are very similar and I didn't like that. Seaside Whispers was published not even a month ago after all.

I liked seeing how the roles were reversed in this book. Tiffany is the one seeking an one night stand while Dylan wants some kind of commitment. I loved the gifts he was giving her and that he was understanding. Tiffany's job is very demanding and thankfully he was okay with it. They didn't have a huge fight over it and that made me happy. Certain aspects of the book were good and managed to keep me reading, but this is my least favorite book from this author. I hope her next release will be something I will love. I will however recommend the book because I feel like people will like it more than I did.

Our Beck Valley Book Review - Bad Billionaires After Dark: Dylan by Melissa Foster plus ebook giveaway - 2 winners! "The heat pours of these pages straight from the beginning, this is one HOT Read!"....

"The heat pours of these pages straight from the beginning, this is one HOT Read! You feel the immediate sexual heat and desire between these two as well as enjoying their humor all the way through the read, I loved them both.

Dylan so reminded me of my hubbie after we first met, his persistence at the beginning to get the relationship started properly, the lovely little things he did and said. Dylan's words melted me I have to admit, he enjoys the game of seduction making it impossible for her to say no as she reluctantly is unable to resist every inch of his body and his sensual, sometimes humorous, lines that seemed to roll effortlessly from his tongue giving the most powerful impact. Their connection and banter between them had me smiling and laughing throughout and at the hot times my heart was definitely in a total flutter!

I also loved Tiffany and totally got her, a top sports agent who built her business up from scratch, absolutely loved and lived for her work, her phone glued to her hand, on call 24/7 with no time for anything else, her passion was her work and work was her life until Dylan arrived and slowly and carefully peeled back her deeply guarded layers to start to uncover who Tiffany the person was.

I honestly didn't think this would compare to Bad Boys After Dark: Mick but I was totally proved wrong. I absolutely loved Mick, but Dylan oh my what a guy, both in and out of the bedroom, added to that their hidden traumatic pasts they both hold deep, the way their relationship blossoms and how they help each other move forward, the inclusion of their family and friends and the emotional storyline it is definitely another winner from Melissa Foster. She has a way with her writing that makes you desperate to find out more, it holds all your attention and melts you to the core.

A book not to be picked up thinking you will only read a couple of chapters today and some the next, these two will have you eagerly following their relationship unable to put the book down."

This book is hot, hot, hot! Did I say hot? Yes, enough to curl the edges of my tablet AND singe my eyebrows! If the Bradens and Remingtons were your introduction to Ms. Foster's books, then the After Dark series may be a whole new world for you, but fear not because the best part of her writing is an integral part of these books.

BAD BOYS AFTER DARK: DYLAN is filled with heart, humor, romance, family and lots of passion. Dylan is a heart-stealing hero and the kind of guy any woman would give everything for. He's emotionally open, sweet, charming, generous with his feelings and so accommodating. But none of this makes him a pushover. He's very confident and can be a steamroller when he needs to be. Plus, his limitless patience was exactly what Tiffany needed.

Tiffany Winters. Sports agent extraordinaire. Driven, independent, ambitious and closed off to emotional entanglements and romance. She's the kind of woman that requires a patient man to peel back her layers and very much the opposite of the kind of woman Dylan is drawn to, but the instant attraction between them is hard to ignore. She's only interested in one night, but Dylan is determined to get more than one night out of her and the glimpses of the real Tiffany he gets reinforce his determination to unearth the passionate and emotional woman behind her walls.

I have read the previous book in this series but it's been so long that I was quite surprised by how erotic this story started out. Dylan and Tiffany have the kind of chemistry that blows the chart to smithereens and their every encounter is a blend of sexy and emotional. The thing is no matter how spicy the sex is, the emotional connection between the characters is a huge part of the story, and is exactly what sets Ms. Foster's books apart and takes the story from straightforward erotica to an engaging romance.

This is one book I have no issue recommending to anyone looking for a well-written and engaging romance or a hot smutty read, or both.

This is my second read from Melissa Foster and i am getting hooked. I'm really enjoying her style of writing the two that i have read are engaging and fun reads to, not all big drama with loads and over the top angst.
Bad Boys After Dark: Dylan albeit part of a collection can be read as a standalone but it has most definitely left me wanting to dive into the rest of the series, hell to dive into all of Mellissa's books.

"The best things in life are worth waiting for and they always seem to appear at the most unexpected times."

Tiffany Winters is a top sports agent, she's worked hard to be where she is and continues to do so, so she can be and represent the very best. But sacrifices have to be made and Tiffany has no trouble with that sacrifice being relationships in her eyes who has time for that when a quick hook up is thats needed!!

Dylan wear's his heart on his sleeve, does this mean he's a sap?? Oh hell no! he just doesn't have a problem telling it like it is and how he feels about things. He knows what he wants and nothing will stop this All Alpha Male getting what he wants even if it's the stubborn woman herself he wants.

Is that what Tiffany feels deep down or is it that she's just scared to risk her heart and it possibly fail because of a previously bad relationship???

And can the very open Dylan bring Tiffany out of herself to take a risk on him?? Because if anyone can Dylan is most definitely the man for her.

This books gave us two chalk and cheese fabulous leading characters but the secondary characters added so much more for me making this read brilliant. I loved everything this book had to offer from emotional, sweet, funny and hot sexiness that i would Highly recommended.

I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Wicked Reads, so here is my review.

First I have to say that this story did not pull me in and keep my attention as well as the first book with Mick did. It is a good story and I loved Dylan but there seemed to be something missing for me. I love Melissa Foster and her stories usually have me hanging on every page but this one didn't until closer to the end. I gave it four stars because to me the ending was the best part and the sexual tension between Dylan and Tiffany was undeniable and hot, but for the most part it was a 3.5 star story.
Dylan Bad owns Night Caps, a local club and is one of the four Bad brothers. When he sees a woman he wants, he goes after her. He has a few demons in his past that will pull at your heart. When he sees Tiffany, he knows he wants her but his brother Mick warns him that she is a ball buster and he needs to steer clear of her. But Dylan is up for the challenge.
Tiffany Winters is a sports agent and she is good at her job because she doesn't take time for anything else. She gets what her clients want and is available to the 24/7. When she slips into Night Caps to answer a phone call, she doesn't realize that she is instantly put on Dylan's radar.
She tries to talk him in to a one night stand but Dylan wants more. Because he knows she needs a little free time.
Can Dylan make Tiffany see that she can do her job and have a personal life at the same time? Will Tiffany push him away when he sees the determination she has for her job? Can they both help each other heal from the pain of the past?
As I said, I love Melissa Foster and I can't wait for Carson's story, brother #3.
