She’s the sassy bartender not looking for a serious relationship. He’s the new chef in town and her ex’s older brother. What happens when friends with benefits turns to more?

Leo Rivers thought he’d be married and head chef of a fine dining restaurant in a big city by now. Instead, he’s incredibly single, lost out on a promotion, and starting over in a small town. Being head chef at Lake Ridge, a local bar and grill, isn’t where he pictured himself, but it’s a stepping stone to the career he wants. There’s just one thing he didn’t expect.

Eliza Hayes isn’t interested in commitment. After losing her parents young and an ex-boyfriend who tried to change her, Eliza knows better than to get attached. She’s perfectly content flirting with tourists, bartending at Lake Ridge, and teaching yoga at her studio. That is until her ex’s older brother becomes her new neighbor and coworker.

Late-night shifts, flirty banter, and an almost kiss three years ago create chemistry that’s impossible to ignore. When the tension finally snaps, Eliza and Leo agree to keep things simple: friends with benefits that’ll end when he leaves town.

But the more time they spend together, the harder it is to pretend their connection is only physical. As Leo reconsiders what success means to him, Eliza has to decide if protecting her heart is worth losing the one man who makes her want to risk it all.

Risk It All is an ex’s older brother, small town workplace romance. It’s the third in a series of interconnected standalones set in northern Wisconsin during a different season. Be prepared for banter, tension, and spice that will make you blush! Risk It All can be read as a standalone.
