Wicked Romances Giveaway Hop was organized by Reading Romances!
When it comes to romance, what’s the difference between wicked and naughty?
When I say the words “wicked romance”, what vision does that conjure up? Does wicked automatically mean paranormal, or does it just define romances with bad boys doing, let’s say, “wicked things” to girls who are about to be “formerly” good? Or oh so very definitely vice absolutely versa?
But if there’s not something special to make them “wicked”, then what’s the difference between “wicked” and “naughty”? Is it the type of hero or heroine (vampire, demon, werewolf, etc.) or what the twosome, threesome, or moresome do together that makes things wicked?
Or is it something else?

Naughty is bending the rules; wicked is breaking them.
For me Naughty is a person who isn’t afraid to do things, and Wicked is a person who isn’t afraid to do things with a partner.
Wicked is something that is bad and nasty is something you know isn’t accepted but choose to do it anyways.
thanks for the fun giveaway hop! The other ladies have expressed it perfectly… naughty is bending/skirting the rules maybe unintentionally but wicked is deliberately breaking the rules.
Naughty is cuffs & a blindfold. Wicked is full restraints, blindfold, flogger and a damn good night 😉

Hmm..I would say wicked is doing something you know is bad and you keep doing it…naughty I think of is someone good doing something not so good just for a short period. I’d definitely take the wicked over the naughty 🙂 Thanks for the contest.
Naughty is bending the rules; wicked is breaking them.

Naughty is what most people dream of but do not do. Wicked is one step above naughty and is when people act on those dreams.

Wicked has evil in it, and naughty is fun!
Naughty: causes a gentle blush
Wicked: causes a full on beet red face
Being “naughty” is simply stretching boundaries (or making suggestions in a public place when you know you won’t be able to follow through right then)
Being “wicked” is doing or saying things you shouldn’t and breaking boundaries rather than just stretching.
I guess – lol

Naughty has a total lack of guile, almost innocent. Wicked is totally premeditated!

Naughty is tamer than wicked. Naughty might make you blush but wicked will makes thing hot.
Naughty is not quite as intense as wicked but Oh boy they both feel good!!!
Wicked is more bad than naughty. Naughty is more fun and playful. Wicked means serious business.
Wicked and Naughty, there is a very fine line between the two. Naughty is disobedient, rule breaking….Wicked is wrong morally. (Dictionary definitions) Naughty is the tamer of the two! But both are so much fun to read!

Wicked is sly and hot.
Naughty is in your face and sexy.
Good question!
Naughty is just enough to make you blush and gigle.
Wicked being beat red and sighing!

Naughty is more light and fun. Wicked is hardcore
I think naughty is still a fun and innocent way of pushing the boundaries whereas wicked is not
I’m with these ladies. Naughty teases, while Wicked is full on. 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway.
Naughty is bending/stretching the rules and Wicked is breaking them with enjoyment.
Thanks for being part of the hop and for the chance to win.

When I first saw the title of this giveaway I thought of “wicked” as in wicked witch, etc….something along the paranormal lines.
But if it’s not that kind of wicked then I see the difference between wicked and naughty and wicked being purposefully mean and maybe evil. 😉

well, I’m thinking that since I love my books on the smexy side, I tend to view naughty and wicked much in the same way… Given, I think that wicked does not have to be smexy, it can be maybe just on the darker side…. Great question and thanks for the contest! Book Savvy Babe

Naughty is just sort of being ornery for the fun of it (teasing) Wicked is just darker and going farther than a tease.
Wicked is evil, naughty is fun! Thanks for the hop!
Wicked is a step beyond naughty.
Pushing the edge……never settling for bland……..going where few others would…when the eye’s naughty sparkle becomes overt action…..this is wicked.
Wicked ones dare, shove, insist, and crave…..whether they’re a bit afraid or not.
It is the ultimate in flying without a net.

Naughty for me is a little more tame of the bad thing you’re doing. Wicked would be REALLY bad and maybe with friends.
flockparty (at) hotmail (dot) com
Well I thought they were synonymous LOL Thank you for the fun.
english not being my native language i didn’t know the subtle difference between the two terms before reading the others comments^^;;, i got it now wicked is worse than naughty
naughty is erotica to me. Wicked is having a dark edge to it. The Black Dagger Brotherhood might be a naughty wicked read

naughty sounds kinda cute – wicked not so much. that one sounds totally sexy.
naughty is more to physical i think…
Good question! Naughty is sweet – someone who wants to be bad and comes across as someone trying to be bad, but you know really that they are not! Wicked is bad to the bone!!
Darlene recently posted..Stacking The Shelves – October 21, 2012
Naughty sounds like Someone who wants to do bad things to you… Wicked just sounds like there is something a little more going on then what you would get with naughty.
Hmm…wicked vs. naughty. One has chains and whips and the other has whipped cream and chocolate sauce…lol. I’ll let you figure out which one is which. 🙂
Wicked is more than naughty
Naughty is nicer than wicked.
Naughty is a nice way for people to say your on your way to being wicked 🙂
thanks for the bloggin fun 🙂

I have to agree with previous posters in my opinion Naughty is bending the rules; wicked is breaking them.Thank you for this chance to win.Have an amazing weeken
Naughty is something fun but not dangerous. Wicked can be dangerous.
Naughty is when you’re willing to do something because you feel comfortable doing it, and wicked is when you just want to play but bad.
Naughty is fun, ornery, a game. Wicked is down right serious.
Thanks for a great giveaway!

Naughty is a little outside your comfort zone but you try it, wicked is something you never tell anyone you did!!

naughty is when you do something small
wicked is when you do something major and you might never be the same again
meandi09@yahoo.com
Naughty is fun and they’re bending the rules. Wicked is breaking them! Bad to the core!
Naughty is being a little bit kinky. Wicked is a rule breaker.
Naughty is something that makes you blush and say “oh my.” Wicked is something that makes your jaw drop.
kesummer69(at)gmail(dot)com
Naughty is bending the rules a little. Wicked is going all the way for someone who wants to be a bad girl.
I think naughty is going a little off the beaten path, wicked is going past the boundaries.
I think Naughty can be anyone but Wicked takes a special person. 😉
To me naughty is a milder form of wicked 🙂
Thanks for the awesome giveaway!
I don’t think their is much of a different.
I don’t see a difference. Mischief comes to mind when I see both words.

When I hear naughty, I think up spicing things up a little like with blindfolds. When I hear wicked, I think of BDSM 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway!
flava_sava_chick@yahoo.com
Is there raelly a difference? I don’t think so 😉
To me, wicked is darker while naughty has a more playful tone.
Thanks for having the giveaway!
Naughty is a mild version of wicked.
Naughty is something shared between lovers. Wicked can include other people outside a relationship and it’s always fun!
Naughty is bending or stretching the rules and Wicked is breaking them and loving it.
Someone naughty is playfully bending the rules, and wicked has just a touch of bad.
Wicked is VERY naughty while naughty is JUST nice.
naughty is doing ‘something’ ‘bad’ for a short amount of time. And Wicked is being bad, rule breaking and dangerous for…like…forever.
wicked to me signify’s something evil…where naughty doesn’t really hurt anybody.
Wicked to me conjures up images of for instance, the Wicked Witch of the West, who are just evil to the soul and choose to cause others harm. This is something that is just inside of certain people. Well where naughty, anyone can have a night or two of naughty fun. Naughty seems more like something you do than what you are. I hope this makes sense! 🙂
Thanks for being a part of this blog hop!

Naughty is something you would share on girls night. Wicked would be it stays a secret.

Wicked is tying someone to the bed, naughty is liking it 🙂
“Naughty” would be bending or going around the rules or what is usually accepted
“Wicked” is breaking the rules and not caring 😉
Naughty is steppin just over the line. Wicked is diving over it and laughing all the way! Thanks!
Wicked has an evil connotation to it, while naughty has a mischievous connotation.
Marlene Breakfield recently posted..Spooktacular Giveaway Hop
Wicked is a state of mind. When you decide that you no longer care about what is good or bad and you just do what you want no matter the consequences or no matter the pain you are causing others then you have become wicked.
hmmmmm when I think of wicked I think of a dark edgy side and naughty I think of as sexy but both are sexy and can go together!

Naughty is thinking of somethign while wicked is doing it!

Excited for another bloghop! Thanks for the giveaway!!
I think one can’t go without the other. Wicked and naughty is two halves of a whole.
When both is apparent in a man, he’s a sexy man.

Naughty is a twinkle in the eye whereas wicked is a gleam.
Thanks 🙂
Naughty is fun and innocent, wicked is evil!
Hmm~ for me wicked is when you know and pride yourself on being extremely good at being bad~ Naughty is more getting a thrill out of sometimes being bad when it’s not your norm~
Thank you for the lovely hop!
wicked- the heavy teasing before it becomes naughty. thanks for the hop!
miriam.whitewolf@gmail.com
I think they are alot alike wicked is just more Naughty 🙂
Thank you for the great giveaway!
naughty is definitely better than wicked. wicked makes me think of evil intent
wicked is evil, naughty is fun
i think wicked is just a little bit eviler than naughty
Wicked can be bad; naughty can be fun
Naughty sounds more playful to me than wicked 🙂
Katie @ Doing Dewey recently posted..Photography Friday
wicked is more evil, naughty is more fun
Wicked is more evil and naughty is just something your parents wouldn’t approve of.
To me, the difference between naughty and wicked to me is definitely the darker elements, such as paranormals, “bad boys”, and such. To me, alpha males are usually more on the wicked side than the naughty side. 😉
Wicked has more of a tortuous feel to it.
Wicked is pure black where naughty can be a little colorful
I think naughty is just for a moment, but wicked is more of a personality trait 😉 Thanks for the great giveaway!
Naughty is something that a little bit on the wild side then just plain regular vanilla stuff while Wicked is full blown edgy and so off mainstream that people would think it is shocked but titillated.
Thanks for the giveaway!
