Publisher's Summary
New York Times best-selling author Eric Jerome Dickey reveals how one chance meeting can change everything in this engrossing, sexy tale of star-crossed lust.
They say the love of money is the root of all evil, but for Ken Swift, it's the love of a woman.
Ken is 21, hurting people for cash to try to pay his way through college, when he lays eyes on Jimi Lee, the woman who will change the course of his entire life. What's meant to be a one-night stand with the Harvard-bound beauty turns into an explosion of sexual chemistry that neither can quit. And when Jimi Lee becomes pregnant, their two very different worlds collide in ways they never could have anticipated.
Passion, infidelity, and raw emotion combine in Eric Jerome Dickey's poignant, erotic portrait of a relationship: the rise, the fall, and the scars - and desire - that never fade.
Critic Reviews
“From wanton to wicked, the love-hate relationship between Dickey's characters burns with rapid-fire dialogue and plenty of steam.” (Kirkus)
"The love story Dickey tells...is potent. Readers will want to read Bad Men and Wicked Women again after being immersed in this edgy, emotional adventure.” (Booklist)

Good Read.
The book gave a better insigt on the story of Bad Men and Wicked Women, but it was so sexualized that it didn't have all if the excitement, turns and twists that I anticipated. It was very well researched and though out as all books by Eric Jerome Dickey, but this was kind of a snooze fest asides for the Unrealistic Sex scenes.....

Page turner, Yoni juicer
Spoiler alert: DO NOT READ ALONE OR AWAY FROM YOUR SPOUSE. It makes the innocent want to dance with the devil. The sex scenes are mind blowing. Had to read and reread them. Now on to the next one, hope it's as juicy as this one. There's more than sex, there's colorism, sexism, betrayals, and violence. Africans and African Americans bump heads which shows and tells a bunch about our society and how we view each other. I couldn't expect anything less from Eric Jerome Dickey. #book26of2019 #bookworm #whatsnext

EJD
I haven't read an EJD book I didn't enjoy. "Before We Were Wicked" was a preclude. We finally found out what happened in Florida. I expected more but hey...
This story spent much time on the relationship between Ken Swift and Jimmie Lee...and I can officially say I hate Jimmie Lee. I probably can put $5 on everyone who reads it will feel the same.
I wanted more typical action but the change of pace wasn't bad. If you are a true EJD fan, read it. If you are not a true EJD fan, read it. :-)
