The Risk Taker · Synopsis

The Risk Taker

My brother’s best friend always saw me as a kid. Now I’m his new roommate—and all grown up. 🧳🔥

My brother’s best friend has always seen me as a kid.
Now I’m his roommate… and I’m done playing it safe.

Easton Scotch is Boston’s resident bad boy.
NHL star. Reckless. Untouchable.
And fresh out of rehab.

He doesn’t do relationships.
Doesn’t let people in.
And definitely doesn’t look at me the way I want him to.

But living together? That changes everything.

As East’s walls come down, the tension between us becomes impossible to ignore.

When we finally cross the line, there’s no going back.

But falling for Easton Scotch isn’t just dangerous…
it could cost him everything he’s fought to rebuild.

And me?

I’m already far too invested.

I bought the Boston Hawks set as a gift for my sister and ended up listening to it first. The narrator chemistry on book 1 is unreal. Worth every penny.

So easy to get the audiobooks downloaded to my phone and it was super fast as well. So far I am loving the books — I’m currently on book three of the series and dreading running out.
