The Risk

by Abby, S.T.

Lana Myers is not your typical heroine. She is a woman on a calculated mission of vengeance, moving through a world where the line between hunter and prey is razor-thin. When she crosses paths with Logan, a man who is as dangerous as he is magnetic, their relationship becomes a volatile power struggle. This is not a soft romance; it is a high-stakes psychological game where every touch feels like a threat and every confession carries a hidden cost. The pacing is relentless, pulling you through a dark, obsessive narrative that refuses to let up until the final page. If you are drawn to morally grey characters, intense power dynamics, and stories where the romance is as sharp as the revenge, this book will keep you completely off-balance.
