Excerpt:
“Whoa,” Ben said, holding up both hands. Geeze, he hadn’t meant to startle her. “Don’t shoot me. Just offering a little help, is all.”
Leaping to her feet, Sarah Lang took quick steps backward.
He watched as she drew her weapon but didn’t raise it. As would someone trained in the proper use of firearms, she held it with both hands aimed at the ground. Thankfully, her finger was still straight and outside the trigger guard. So she wasn’t a novice around weapons. That was excellent.
Just as he knew she would be, she was of good height, and her close-fitting jeans covered long legs and slim hips as though they’d been smeared on her. She’d gained weight, maybe ten pounds, and he instantly approved. When she was modeling, she’d been too thin. She wore boots and a button-down blue chambray shirt, rolled at the sleeves to reveal elegant wrists.
Her straw hat had been pushed back off her forehead and her long blonde braid swung over her shoulder. A streak of dirt made a dark swath across one perfect cheekbone. The large, curiously tilted green eyes he’d looked into so many times through his computer and television screens now narrowed in suspicion. He knew her beauty would transcend the ads and magazine photos, and he was right. She was spectacular. He tried not to stare.
“Who are you?” she demanded. “Spit it out quick or you’re getting a lead sandwich.” He saw her tighten her hold on her pistol.
“No, thanks, already had supper.” Carefully, he kept his hands in the air. Rio had told him she was ornery. He hadn’t been kidding. “Ben Paxton, at your service.”
She cocked her head. “Paxton?”
“Yep.”
She relaxed a little. “Oh. Rio’s business partner.”
“You could say we work together, but we’re not partners. I own the company.”
“Whatever. I told him not to send anyone. I made a police report. And I’m armed.” She cut her gaze toward her pistol, and then holstered it.
“No offense, Sarah, but I walked right up and you didn’t notice.” Deliberately, he emphasized his Texas drawl. “You were bent right over that hole, your butt up in the air, mutterin’ curses like it owed you money.”
“Is that supposed to be funny?” Her eyes shot sparks.
“I’m not being funny. Anybody could have grabbed you, disarmed you, and done whatever else they’d wanted. Your little peashooter there won’t do you any good if you can’t keep control of it. Again, no offense, however you’re not all that observant.”
He watched as her lips firmed. “I can take care of myself.”
“Nope. You can’t. Not right now.” Suddenly he was glad Rio had advised him to be tough with her. “Right now, you need a keeper and his name is Ben Paxton.”
Instantly her chin went up. “Sorry Rio’s friend, or boss, or whoever you are—”
“Told you. I’m Ben.”
“—but you’re not welcome. I don’t want you here and I don’t need you. You have to go.”

What a fantastic story!! I laughed, cried, giggled, and grew to love Sarah and Ben, and their entire family, even more. How they interacted, how the whole town protected Sarah all this time, and how they all took up arms to protect their Sarah. The Weirdo, as Sarah calls her stalker, was a complete surprise! I quickly realized it wasn't the same stalker as last time, but I absolutely couldn't figure out who it could be. The moment he revealed himself, I was like, "No way!" You're kidding! A truly fantastic story! Exciting, romantic, and hilarious. Definitely recommended reading!

There are stories you pick up for the suspense, and then there are stories like Wicked Ben — where the adrenaline rush comes hand in hand with a romance that grips you straight in the chest and refuses to let go. Supermodel Sarah Lang has everything the world thinks it wants: fame, beauty, magazine covers. But when threatening messages turn into real danger — slashed tires, terrifying notes, a feeling of eyes always watching — the glittering runway suddenly feels like a trap. Her escape? The wide-open refuge of her family’s Montana ranch. Her problem? The danger follows. Enter Ben Paxton — ex-Special Forces, lethal when needed, steady as stone, the kind of man who doesn't just walk into a room… he fills it. He's the fantasy thousands have drooled over, but he's also something deeper: a protector. A man who teaches, reassures, challenges, and loves with a quiet fierceness that sneaks under your skin. And oh, the chemistry. Electric. Consuming. Intimate in a way that isn’t just heat — it’s connection. The kind that makes you want to dog-ear pages just to reread the good parts. (Yes… those parts.) What makes this book more than a high-stakes romantic thriller is the way Sarah transforms. She doesn’t just hide. She learns, adapts, grows claws of her own. When danger finally comes crashing down, she stands her ground — not as a damsel in distress, but as a woman shaped by strength and love. The student becomes the fighter. And Ben? He’s right there, but not overshadowing her — he empowers her. And then comes the question that hits the heart hardest: When the threat is gone… will Ben stay? Or is he a wildfire — intense, unforgettable, but never meant to be contained? And what about Sarah? Does she return to the lights of the runway, or has she found something worth far more than fame — safety, love, and a home in the arms of a man once known as Wicked? If you crave stories with… ? danger that keeps your heart pounding ? a protective alpha who melts only for her ? sensual, emotional love scenes that feel earned ?️ a heroine who learns to fight back ❤️ vulnerability beneath all that toughness …Wicked Ben will be your next obsession. It’s sexy. It’s suspenseful. It’s empowering. And it’s a reminder that sometimes beauty doesn’t need rescuing — just someone willing to stand beside her while she learns to fight. A riveting, romantic thrill ride with a hero worth swooning over and a heroine worth rooting for. I devoured it.
Ben was hired to protect a supermodel sister of his best friend. He had a huge crush on her for years. She was dealing with a stalker and also PTSD and survivors guilt from her best friend's death. They were good together and after the stalker is taken care of they find their HEA. I recommend this book to all romance readers.
Wicked Ben is the second book in the Wicked Series by Dorsey Adams. When Sarah Long finds out she is being stalked, Ben Paxton steps in as her protector. But be becomes more than that he's becomes her teacher and support. As love grows between them, Sarah's only fear is whether Ben will stay or go after the threat is neutralized.
Tasked with protecting Sarah from her stalker, Ben can't deny the attraction between them. Sarah feel the same but with looming danger, Ben is feeling particularly protective. Steamy with strong characters. A good read.
First time reading this author and I love it. The story was great and in a good peace. Love the romance and action.
This was an amazing intense read. I loved it . The story was intense and had all the things I love with a super intense protector vibe that delivered a great book 2 in this series.
Wicked Ben is the second book in the Wicked series, and it delivers a fast-paced mix of action, suspense, and drama with not one, but two romances that feel meant to be. The story keeps the stakes moving, and it’s easy to root for the characters as they fight their way toward a hard-won happily ever after. While there are a few moments where the pacing slows and the plot drags slightly, I still found this to be an entertaining, quick read overall. If you enjoy romantic suspense with steady action, emotional tension, and couples you want to see win, Wicked Ben is worth picking up.

Wicked Ben by Dorsey Adams is the second book of The Wicked Series. In Sarah and Ben's story she is being stalked and its getting worse. Ben is her bodyguard and brings her to his place in Texas. They have unbelievable chemistry in their well written story. I really enjoyed reading their story and can't wait to read more of the series.
Although this is Book 2 of The Wicked Series it can be read as a standalone. The supermodel and the bodyguard she comes to love. The plot was intriguing and intense and well paced. World building was solidly drawn. The characters were well written and complex and perfect for each other. Thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend. Grab a copy, kick back and enjoy!
Sarah is being stalked and it’s escalating. Ben is hire as her body guard. They have great chemistry and some majorly steamy scenes. But when the threat is neutralized will Ben still want her or will their lives return to normal? This is a great read.
