More Than A Risk

By Kennedy L. Mitchell

Synopsis

Is a life worth living if you don’t risk it all for the one you love?

Shot and left for dead, Dr. Kate Wheeler wakes in a familiar hospital, alive, and with the one person she hoped she would never see again. He is back, but why and how are questions she’s still too angry to seek answers to. After abandoning her when she needed him most, it will take a lot to win her heart again—which he is prepared to do but Kate has never been one to give in easily.

A surprise visit from a dear friend pulls the feisty doctor into a deadly game of cat and mouse with a local businessman full of dark secrets. It’s up to Kate to bring this man to justice knowing her father, the Dallas DA, won’t prosecute without evidence; evidence she is willing to do anything to obtain.
With the love of her life observing her every move Kate is forced to walk the fine line of deceit to keep him at arm’s length. When the charade takes a dangerous turn will Weston be enough to bring her back from the edge, or is it too late for them both?

Hearts and lives are at risk and Kate and Weston’s fiery relationship returns in this second book of the More Than a Threat series.

Review

More Than A Risk is book 2 of this series. I have not read More Than A Threat (Book 1). To be honest I could easily follow this story. It does start at the cliffhanger moment from book 1 and we actually get some flashbacks. These allowed me to easily pick up the story. The first few chapters just drew me in and kept me so entertained. I could not put this down even though I had a few questions that if I had read book one I probably would know.

You want to peel back the layers of Kate and Weston. Weston was an easy character to connect with but I admit I struggled at times with Kate. I did not warm up to her fully until they visited Weston’s friends for the wedding. As Kate showed her emotions and opened her defences up I began to love her. However, I became frustrated with her ability to put herself in danger to the detriment of Weston.

The sexual scenes between Weston and Kate were off the charts hot and heavy. There are some incredible moments of intense emotion that grab your heart with both hands.

Weston’s friends and his brother I absolutely loved and they all gave more depth to the story especially towards the ending. I actually wanted to see more interaction with her father but again perhaps that happened more in More Than A Threat?

Chase had me at times scared to my core for Kate and the games she was playing.

This story gives you dark moments of suspense, mystery and trauma. It ties up nicely but does lead to another book.

My Rating:
