Dr. Danica Kent, M.D., had a crush on Braydon Mitchell for years.  She used to spy on him and watch him with his other girlfriends, dreaming of the day that she could have him for herself.  However, she was too shy to approach him or even speak to him.  Danica had set Braydon up as an idol and therefore was willing to take him however she could get him, but she soon realizes that her heart is involved and that may be more than she is willing to risk.Braydon Mitchell noticed Danica when they were younger and even knew that she spied on him, but he never made a move on her because he already had a girlfriend at the time.  He left their small town of Whispering Cove to wander in search of the next adventure and didn't really want to be tied down; he was a free spirit traveling and freelance writing for various magazines.  Braydon's grandfather, a member of the "gruesome threesome",  manages to manipulate Braydon into returning home to the small town and contrives to manipulate Danica into Braydon's orbit several times.Wicked is a delightful read with a strong smart heroine and a sexy hero who come together to find just what they need to be happy.  Danica learns that she can go on living without Braydon but it would be nice to settle down with him.  Usually the "gruesome threesome's" manipulations were quite funny, but I think this time grandpa came close to pushing the line of someone getting hurt when he interfered with the good doctor's job.  But Danica handled it well and there wasn't any real tragedy because of grandpa's manipulations.  Wicked had me feeling like curling up in Braydon Mitchell's arms because who wouldn't want to see their childhood crush fulfilled, especially in a big way?!  I liked that they both had flaws and needed to work through them.  I did have a few questions when I finished the book:  Who had called Danica so early in the morning?  What was she talking to Hauk, another man, about?  Perhaps Ms. Duncan is planning on a sequel?  I hope so.Vanessa for Joyfully Reviewed
