Publisher's Summary

A sexy stand-alone novel from New York Times and international best-selling author Elle Kennedy.

Everyone says I’m a bad girl. They’re only partly right - I don’t let fear rule me, and I certainly don’t care what people think. But I draw the line at sleeping with the enemy. As the daughter of Briar’s head hockey coach, I’d be vilified if I hooked up with a player from a rival team.

And that’s who Jake Connelly is. Harvard’s star forward is arrogant, annoying, and too attractive for his own good. But fate is cruel - I require his help to secure a much-coveted internship, and the sexy jerk isn’t making it easy for me.

I need Connelly to be my fake boyfriend. 

For every fake date…he wants a real one.

Which means this bad girl is in big trouble. Nothing good can come from sneaking around with Jake Connelly. My father would kill me, my friends will revolt, and my post-college career is on the line. But while it’s getting harder and harder to resist Jake’s oozing sex appeal and cocky grin, I refuse to fall for him.

That’s the one risk I’m not willing to take.

Loved everything about this book!

I actually really enjoyed this book.. a lot! Jake and Brenna were so perfect together. I could relate a lot with Brenna - having gone to journalism school and also being a female working in the sports industry. I have zero complaints about this book. I thought it was fun, flirty and the serious parts were minimal in regards to them being a couple. It was an enjoyable read!

Love this book

Omg I loved the story line between Jake & Brenna!!! I would love to find out how the love between them grows with his NHL career and her last year of college! Elle Kennedy is by far my new favourite writer!

I love elle Kennedy

I love elle Kennedy but the risk just didn’t do for me. I just didn’t connect with the story lines of the two protagonist. Most of Elle’s books leave me wanting more by the end but unfortunately this wasn’t the case with The Risk
