A Bad Boys After Dark Crossover Novel

By: Melissa Foster

What happens when a rock star with no plans of settling down finds out he has a teenage daughter, his manager is embezzling from him, and the woman he’s hired to design his tour wardrobe is breathing fire?

Come along for the snarky, emotional, and insanely sexy ride as Jillian and Johnny get caught up in a storm that just might be bigger than both of them.

Jillian Braden’s quick, creative thinking and fierce determination have helped her singlehandedly build a fashion empire. She doesn’t mince words and demands respect, but beneath all that armor, she carries the Braden curse of a soft heart. But that soft heart isn’t looking to start a family and doesn’t know the first thing about mollycoddling. When famed rock star Johnny Bad hires her to design his tour wardrobe and then postpones it at the last minute for the third time, she’s had enough. Jillian is determined to set him straight, but she isn’t at all prepared for what she finds or for the type of help Johnny Bad really needs.

Scorching heat, laugh-out-loud humor, and an abundance of swoon-worthy moments make this sexy new standalone romance by New York Times and Wall Street Journal best-selling author Melissa Foster unputdownable. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and happily ever afters guaranteed to leave you breathlessly in love with the fiercely loyal and wickedly naughty characters in the Love in Bloom series.

Foster does it again!!!

This story had me laughing out loud and bawling like a baby all in the same chapters! As the only girl of 6 and watching her brothers all get there HEA I was pulling for a strong, loving hero for Jilly. And Johnny Bad is PERFECT for her! Along with his 14- year old daughter Zoe! Tons of humor, spice and wit!

Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood NAILED the voices. They really brought the characters to life. This is one I will listen to over again!

Jillian and Johnny perfect match!

Melissa Fosters’ Rocked By Love, brings a new branch of the Bad family to us. Johnny Bad is a famed rock star learning to navigate fatherhood at the drop of a hat and trying to salvage his business and reputation after learning his manager has duped him for many years including not telling him he has a daughter. JIllian Braden is an up and coming fashion designer who is both thrilled to be designing Johnny’s tour wardrobe and ready to strangle him for all the times he has canceled their meetings at the last minute. Jillian believes she is not mother/mom material, yet she does an amazing job helping Johnny and Zoe come to understand each other as father and daughter. The story is beautifully written with so much passion, love, and every emotion under the sun. Melissa’s characters are always strong in character and will help friends and family. Aiden Snow and Savanna Peachwood bring Johnny and Jillian to life for our aural pleasure. I just love Aiden’s deep, rich, gravelly voice. I shiver thinking about what it would be like to hear that seductive voice in real life. Savanna Peachwood is an amazing narrator with awesome talents that make listening to the story so very pleasurable. I just love Melissa Foster’s Love In Bloom series. These stories are stand-alones with connectivity through family and love. Beautiful, seductive, emotional, and a very steamy love story. Totally recommend Rocked By Love in any format you prefer.

Best audiobook EVER

Rocked by Love by Melissa Foster rocked my whole world!
Make a spot at the top of your list of book boyfriends because that's the only spot Johnny Bad deserves. He isn't just a broody hero but also a swoony, sexy, caring, protective man who melted my heart.
Johnny wasn't perfect, he didn't know how to be a father, but he learned and never gave up. He accepted help from others and made sure Zoe got the people she needed around her. It was beautiful to see Johnny bond with Zoe and how their relationship grew throughout the story. Them becoming a thriving family gave me hope that my own little family will thrive one day too.
Jillian was Johhny and Zoe's missing link, she helped them grow together, but she did it in her own way. I adored her sass and how she didn't do what the rockstar wanted.
Jillian and Johnny are magical together! I loved their banter and sexy innuendos. Add Zoe to these two, and they were such a beautiful family. They weren't perfect, but they loved each other so fiercely. It was so comforting to listen to them coming together.

Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood did an excellent job narrating the audiobook. Their narration made me feel the story deep in my heart and touched my soul.

Rocked by love is feel-good romance at its best! It's a heartwarming story that made me laugh and cry. It's a tale of people becoming a family and fighting for each other. The narration was top-notch and brought life to the story. I'm 100% sure the book is fantastic, but the audiobook is gold!
One of my favorite audiobooks ever!

LOVE. Love exciting and new. Love neither had it on their mind when for the third time Mr. Johnny Bad cancels of Jillian Braden. Her time wasted. Her launch delayed. Her life and plans all pinned on one person that can elevate her career to the next level. She was not going to let him get away with dismissing her yet again without a word or just cause. Jillian Braden finds that she stepped into something more than giving someone a piece of her mind for cancelling on her yet again. She walks in on a cluster@#$%.

Johnny Bad. He was a man all unto himself. He was preparing for a tour and his world comes crashing to a halt. Things get upended and not for the good or maybe it was. Johnny finds that he is a father and has to firer his manager. He has to face a pissed of clothing designer. He has to tell his bad mates the will not be going on tour and their manager was stealing from them just to name a few of the things he was doing. He has to tell his family he is a father, He has to get to know said daughter and not mess it up.

Now, to do things in a way he can process he tells Jillian that she will be going with him and his daughter to sort things out. Of course that does not fly for Jillian. Things become fun and interesting once the three are out of the line of fire. Many things make you fall in love with Jillian and Johnny. You even get to see other couples from the series. Attend a wedding, an award show (almost), go to a fair, meet the family, and so much more. There are little tidbits about other storylines in the making. All things leading to a fab story with love making a difference in more than two lives, Acceptance. Understanding. Love. Honesty.

Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood do a fab job a usual. Either could have carried this off by themself but it was so much better with the two of them together. Now having both read and listen to this story. I am hear to say that listen was so much more of a visual journey.

Winger and Rocker Boy for the win

I really enjoy this author's books, but this one has risen to the top of the charts for me. It is a fantastic story with lots of things going on and lots of family love. I loved Jillian Braden's snarky attitude but her soft side for young Zoe. I loved that our rock star, Johnny Bad has some soft sides to him as well. When life throws surprises your way you have to learn to go with the flow and that this trio did. When they go to Colorado to Jillian's family's cottage, the love cottage works its magic once again and Johnny and Jillian find they are exactly what they needed but didn't know it. I loved Zoe and how she was dealt a raw deal but managed to survive and thrive. It's just such a heartwarming book that I loved from beginning to end.

Aiden Snow, and Savannah Peachwood bring Johnny and Jillian to life and gives all the emotion needed. They were great.

This is part of a series but each stands alone. This is my new favorite. Loved it.

Absolutely love Johnny and Jillian!!

Rocked by Love is absolutely awesome!

Fashion designer Jillian Braden and Rockstar Johnny Bad's relationship does not start out on good terms. Jillian is commissioned to design outfits for Johnny's upcoming tour, but when he cancels on her yet again, she decides to confront him and give him a piece of her mind. Arriving at his condo, Jillian realizes Johnny has a good reason for cancelling; he just found out he has a teenage daughter and his longtime manager has been stealing from him. In order to keep his daughter safe from the press, Jillian offers Beau and Char's inn in Colorado. In order to help johnny and Zoey build a relationship, Jillian agrees to go to Colorado with them. During their time at the inn, not only does Jillian fall in love with Zoey, her feelings for Johnny only gets stronger. Johnny's feelings for Jillian grow as well. When their chemistry is to much to deny, the sparks fly.

Jillian and Johnny's love story takes you through many feelings on their way to their HEA. Great narration by Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood. Melissa definitely doesn't disappoint once again.

Fabulous story

I loved the story of yhe rocket and the fashionista. Jilian was a big hel to bridge fathe abd daughter, with HEA on the side. Simply fabulous
The narrators did a great job bringing story to vision.

Amazing Fun!!

Melissa has reached deep down into her soul and brought out this over-the-top story. It had so much emotions stitched into the tapestry that touched my heart. I was so happy to finally get to see Jillian's story. Johnny Bad was perfect for her!
Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood were super narrating it. They brought me along on the merry-go-around with the characters. Together Melissa, Aiden and Savannah made this so much fun! I loved it!

A steamy contemporary/rockstar romance!

A steamy contemporary/rockstar romance that is sooo good! Jillian is a fashion designer that is ready to do the wardrobe for Johnny Bad, but he has put her off for the third time. Jillian isn't one to be taken advantage of, but what she finds when she goes to confront him takes all the wind out of her sails and totally changes her plans.

Johnny Bad certainly hasn't had good things happening in his life lately. Until Jillian and his latest roadblock show up on the same day. But could that turn out to be his best day ever?

Foster has given us another great addition to this series. The audio version was a delight to listen to. The voices of Savannah Peachwood and Aiden Snow are perfect for Jillian and Johnny!

Thanks to the author for the gifted copy of this audiobook. All thoughts are my own.

Jillian has had enough of Johnny Bad and his constant cancellations that she decides it’s time to set him straight only to have her life turned upside yet again by the rockstar when she arrives at his condo.

Johnny and Jillian are the definition of tension, banter, and combustible chemistry. I loved the way Johnny, Jillian and Zoey navigated their unique situations to become a family.

It’s always great to get updates about past characters and especially the OG Bad crew. I am excited for more from the new Bad crew and can’t wait to see how Kane and Sable’s story will play out.

Aiden Snow and Savannah Peachwood were the perfect selections for Johnny and Jillian. They did a great job of conveying the emotions of the characters while bringing them and the story to life.
