A Risk Worth Taking
The Legionnaires #3
Right from the start, A Risk Worth Taking stands out as an action-packed thrill ride with complex characterization and many exciting twists and turns. Readers are immediately drawn into skilled computer security expert Samira Desta’s dangerous and desperate plight to bring down a corrupt politician with eyes on a bid for the American presidency. A Senator with far-reaching ties and a man who will stop at nothing to protect his secrets and put an end to his detractors.
After the death—and suspected murder—of her fiancé, Samira has spent the past year in hiding, moving from place to place as she works to find more information about the man behind the threat to her life and the life of her family and friends. Now that her latest cover’s been blown, things have changed. She’s on a mission to put an end to the corruption and threats once and for all, but it will require help from past one night stand, Jamie Armstrong, and his Legionnaires team.
With vivid detail, a fast-paced plot, a strong hero and heroine, and excellent emotional and physical stakes, A Risk Worth Taking is a fantastic and expertly-written romantic suspense story that takes its readers on a memorable and gripping action-adventure. The chemistry between Samira and Jamie is electric and the danger surrounding them is high enough to keep readers on edge until the very end.
A Risk Worth Taking is the third book in author Brynn Kelly’s The Legionnaires series from HQN Books. It’s part of an ongoing series, but it can be read—and highly enjoyed—as a standalone book.
