Release Date: May 11

As the fixer for Blackbridge Security, Quinten Lake is the man that comes in and cleans up after people make stupid decisions.

Which means he didn’t want to be the one teaching lustful women gun safety.

There were guys on the team better suited for the task.

Get in and get out, that’s his motto, something he lives by not only at work but also in his personal life.

And he could be doing just that if it weren’t for the internet.

But if #BlackbridgeSpecial wasn’t trending online he would’ve never met Hayden Prescott. 

He wouldn’t be wondering why she won’t make eye contact with him.

He’s supposed to teach her the skills to protect herself, but his ego is encouraging him to be her means of protection.

She isn’t impressed, and he’s left wondering if she’ll ever open her eyes and finally see him.

My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

My review:

Calculated Risk is the fifth book in the Blackbridge Security (BBS) series but can be read as a stand-alone. I have not read the entire series, but I have found that they are easy to read as stand-alone. Although I want to read them all eventually. It was fast-paced and full of wit and intrigue. The main characters were developed and very likable. Quinten had a tough exterior but deep down he was a huge teddy bear. He did not want to teach the six-week class on gun safety to women, but the BBS wanted to help women who needed it. Hayden did not want to attend the gun safety class, but her friend convinced her. Her house had been broken into and she wanted to overcome her fear. She was so brave to finally overcome her difficulties. I loved revisiting and meeting the rest of the Blackbridge teams and look forward to reading their stories in the future.
I received an ARC and am willingly leaving a review. All thoughts and opinions are my won.

Let's see...where to begin...

I'm inching up on the BIG 4-0. The gray hairs are doubling what seems like daily, and the wrinkles and laugh lines are more pronounced than ever.

I have an amazing husband (Married just over 15 years.)

We have two boys we're doing our best to raise as respectful gentleman.

I have a master's degree in criminal justice which I used to work as a juvenile probation office until deciding to write full-time in June of 2019. So that means there's usually always some criminal/law element to my novels.

If I'm not writing; I'm reading.

My favorite genres recently are bully/reverse harem and enemies to lovers. Maybe I'm reliving my traumatic teen years through the girls who actually end up with the boys. (Not that I would change my history since it's gotten me exactly where I need to be!)

I love coffee. I miss carbs. Music is LIFE. I try not to be too serious.
