I read the first book in the series Protecting What's His and loved it. So when the opportunity came to read His Risk to Take, I quickly jumped on it. There are two things you should know about this story prior to going in,1) It's a short story. So the main characters meet each other and fall in love by the end of the week.2) It's not really related to Protecting What's His. The other character from PWH don't make an appearance in this one. So you can dive right in without needing to read the first one.Even though it is a short story, there was a lot of ground covered. We get that Ruby is a hustler and that is the way that she's been brought up. We also know that Troy was transferred from CPD to NYPD due to the death of his partner. So he has a huge problem when it comes to people being reckless. Say... like the woman he's falling in love with, putting herself in danger for his sake. There wasn't a lot of surprises to this story. You pretty much know what's going to happen from the get go but it was still a nice steamy read with a smidgen of suspense at the end.The characters were likable, the situation was believable and the author didn't go off on random tangents that didn't pertain to the storyline. It was a short and sexy read that fell in step with PWH since Troy has a tenancy speak his mind when it comes to the bedroom. I definitely will be keeping my eyes out for more from not only this series but this author as well.
