Publisher Description
Sometimes friendship is just another word for love.
Violet MacAllister is no stranger to rejection. Growing up with dyslexia, she was bullied mercilessly, making her feel as though she would never be good enough. And she believed it—until she found art and a new way of expressing herself. But her wounds run deep, and even though she's been pining over her best friend Hudson for years, he has no idea, and she intends to keep it that way. He's everything she could ever want—sensitive, artistic, hard-working, smart, and so, so hot—but she knows they'll only ever be friends.
Hudson Prescott has been through a lot. He lost his father as a child, his fiancée jilted him, and six months ago, he was in a terrifying motorcycle accident that could've cost him his life. The one bright spot through the dark times has been his friend and co-worker Violet, who's talented, driven to help others, and a total sweetheart. She's his closest friend, and he'd be lost without her.
But one emotional night, everything changes, and suddenly Hudson's seeing Violet in a different light. One that has him questioning how he could've been so blind to what was in front of him this entire time: Violet, with her curls, and tattoos, and her laugh that feels like sunshine. So when Violet has a proposition for him—one that involves her painting a nude portrait of him—he agrees. Because now that his eyes are open, he'll do anything to make her see she's the one for him.
Including bare it all.

Madigan and Tobias
Being a longtime fan of Melissa Foster’s, I didn’t think that her books could get any hotter. Well, clearly I was wrong, because my fingers were singed when reading Tobias and Madigan’s book on my e-reader!
First off, can I say how much I love those two names! Tobias is a strong name, and it totally fits this gruff and broody character. Of course, he has a heart of gold and marshmallow squishy insides. At least as far as Madigan is concerned. What started out as just a one night stand turned into so much more for both of them.
Madigan is a fierce young woman, but she still haunted by the loss of her cousin and a heartache she suffered while in college. She’s definitely not looking for anything serious, so she isn’t prepared for her feelings to become deeper for Tobias.
When a secret is revealed, Madigan feel betrayed, and Tobias is angry. Mostly in himself, though. Watching these to come back together and becoming even stronger was so wonderful.
I love the Wickeds and their circle of family and friends. The fight but always love each other. It’s always a joy to read their stories and I cannot wait to see who is next. The wicked truth is definitely one of my top five favorite books by Melissa Foster. And considering the size of her catalog, that says a lot.
