WORTH THE RISK by Jennifer J. Williams

 

Release Date: January 19

Hannah
The night before starting my new job was not when I wanted to meet my neighbor. Certainly not in the middle of the night, wearing next to nothing, as I bang on his door to tell him to quiet down. And when he answers the door, I almost swallow my tongue. He’s possibly the hottest guy I’ve ever seen. But when he opens his mouth, my Southern upbringing rears its ugly head, and I slam up those carefully constructed walls around my heart.
 
Luca calls me Pixie, and suggests I need to loosen up. When I finally decide to lower my walls with him however, he walks into my work office. As the social media manager for the Denver Wolves hockey team, I’d been warned about one specific hot player, both on and off the ice. Of course, he’d be that hot player. But I just can’t stay away … until I’m forced to. 
 
Luca
I’m the black sheep of the Wolves. The one who has too much bad publicity. Everyone, including my family, thinks I’m a player. No one believes that I’m tired of the partying. The lifestyle. The games. But I don’t know how to change things, until she moves in next door. 
 
Hannah makes me want to be a better man. But life on the ice has gotten murky, and my coach is clearly looking to get rid of me. I’ve never taken chances on anyone before, but something tells me Hannah is worth the risk.

My rating: 4 out of 5 stars
My review:
Worth the Risk is the first book in the Eternity series by Jennifer J. Williams.  Although this was a new-to-me author, after reading the blurb I had to read it.  It was funny and a cute enemy to a lover’s romance.  The first meeting between Luca and Hannah was comical.  The chemistry between the two of them was hot and instantaneous.  After Hannah discovers women in his apartment, he gets that she does not want anything to do with him.  He slowly breaks down her walls but just as the possibility of them having a relationship together, they discover they both worked for the Wolves hockey team.  
I liked the storyline, but I felt like there was a jump in time between them hating and falling for each other.  There was no build-up to their sudden change of feelings, it was just an instant change.  Although I was a little disappointed and dizzy by the instant change, it was still an entertaining book.  
I received an ARC and am voluntarily leaving a review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
