Wild by Nana Malone and M Malone is the story of Talia Hamilton and Cage Ward.

Cage has been asked by his best friend to watch over his sister, Talia while she is attending college. But Cage didn’t recognized her the wild night she was letting loose and kissed her. Now he is trying to keep a promise to his friend but at the same time his feelings are getting the better of him.
Really enjoyed reading their story!! Loved it!
What a fun, fantastic read! It’s a blend of insta-love, friends-to-lovers, and an office romance, too!
Hunter and Bailey meet the night before she starts working at the same company where Hunter works. As much as they clicked that first night, both know nothing can happen now that they’re coworkers so they become best friends instead.
A year later, Bailey is traumatized by her lecherous boss, and Hunter is there to help her deal with it. This marks a seismic shift in their awareness of each other’s feelings, and despite Bailey’s attempts to backpedal, Hunter is determined to make the most of his friendship with Bailey and protect their jobs at the same time.
Their friendship was very sweet, but once Hunter lets his alpha caveman have a chance at claiming Bailey, the story really heats up and the action builds to an amazing climax. Hunter is perfect for her, despite that one (little?) mistake, and I absolutely loved reading their story. Lots of steam, lots of fun, lots of angst and drama. And Oh. My. Goodness! The tie-in to one of our favorite Malone characters was the icing on the cake! I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
4.5 stars
I’ve read quite a few books that these two authors have co written together and Wicked is up there with my favourites. Wicked is a sweet, sexy rom com and completely different to what I’ve read previously by these two authors.
Hunter and Bailey meet on a night out and hit it off straight away but once Hunter finds out that Bailey is going to be working at the same office he does, he knows he has to back off. Inter office relationships are frowned upon so instead Hunter goes the friend route and it’s not long before the two of them are best friends. The lines start to blur when Bailey stumbles across her boss in a embarrassing position and proceeds to drown her troubles with alcohol, leading her to not only get loose lips but also wandering hands aswell. Hunter sees this as a sign that it’s on between them and nothings going to stop him going after who he wants any longer. Not Baileys pervy boss or the office rules.
I loved Bailey and Hunter. They’re sweet together. Their friendship is the most important thing to either of them and neither one wants to lose the other. The chemistry between them is hot and I loved seeing the different sides of the characters once they’d gone from friends to more.
I really enjoyed this book. It’s sweet, sexy, fun and I couldn’t help but love the characters. A more lighthearted romance than I’m used to from these authors but I absolutely loved it.
I gave this book five stars because it was spectacular. Hunter and Bailey were great together. Bailey’s boss was a creep. I am glad he got what he deserved. I can’t wait to read the next book! Good job ladies!
I have to give both M. Malone and Nana Malone two thumbs up for the ending alone. This does end in a cliffhanger but the next two books come out pretty quick. This is a fast read with more steamy sex than anticipated. M. Malone and Nana Malone did give some suspense, angst and a big twist. I did figure part of the puzzle out but part of the same puzzle I did not and it surprised me. I like Bailey she is smart, strong and sticks to her guns. She is true to herself. Hunter is smart, loyal and knows when to give Bailey space. These two together make a fierce team. I can’t wait to see what happens in Wild and Wanton. This does cross another one of M. Malone and Nana Malone Series, but is not needed to enjoy this book. I don’t want to mention too much on this because I don’t want to give anything away. In my opinion if you are a M. Malone and Nana Malone fan they did not disappoint. I received an ARC edition for my honest and voluntary review.

Wicked by M. Malone and Nana Malone is an interoffice and friends to lovers romance that is sure to make your day a little more fun.
Hunter and Bailey meet and hit it off nicely. They seem like a match made in heaven, until they learn they will be working together. With a strict no fraternization rule, they keep things friendly and are quickly BFFs. But when a rather traumatizing event leads to too much alcohol, feelings and longing escape and there is no putting them back.
Hunter and Bailey’s friendship and connection was so much fun to read. They just clicked from the beginning, it was almost painful to know they didn’t give themselves the chance to be more before vodka gave them a push.
This is a fairly quick read with laughs and heat. Totally worth packing in your beach bag this summer.
Whoa!! This book was wicked delicious!! From the beginning of this book I was hooked and reeled in. Hunter seemed like the absolute perfect guy. And he is and Bailey had a crush on him but who knew underneath all the sweet was that dirty talking Alpha!! Lord let that Hunter come and hunt me down, please!!! Bailey never knew she would even like all that until Hunter either but will she Jinks herself before they even get started? She doesn’t believe that friends turned lovers can last. And she doesn’t want to lose him as a friend at all. Plus they work together and there is all kinds of crazy happening there!!! This is the first book I have read by either of these authors and I’m very pleasantly surprised and will pick up some more books by them for sure!! And I definitely recommend this book!!!! – By Tina
Wicked is a best friends to lovers novella that proves that you CAN be best friends with the opposite sex BEFORE you have a serious relationship with them. Bailey and Hunter have been best friends for a little over a year, ever since she started interning at the company he works at. As much as he wants her he has had to put his desires for her on the back burner. But after Bailey witnesses something she didn’t want to see and Hunter has to take care of her all bets are off. These two had great chemistry and perfect for each other. Though Hunter let his jealousy and the desire to make things better for Bailey get the better of himself he WAS there when she needed him the most. Bailey was a little immature in her nature but she did listen to reason, which was one of the things that I liked about her. She didn’t stay pissed at him for weeks when listening to his side of the story easily made her feel at ease. This was a wonderfully sweet story and I’m looking forward to reading more by this author.
