*`Review: The Risk by Elle Kennedy`*

🦋 ·.·´REVIEW`·.·🦋

Title: The Risk
Series: Briar U #2
Author: Elle Kennedy

REVIEW:
4 Stars
This is the second book in the Briar U series. We have Brenna and Jake. This is enemies to lovers/rivals to lovers vibes with fake dating thrown in. Jake plays for her dad's rival hockey team. That adds another layer to it all. I really liked Brenna and Jake. I will admit some of the other stuff going on lost me a bit, but Jake and Brenna pulled me back in. It's all fake they say, but you can't deny the all too real chemistry between them. I will also admit Coach Jensen was letting me down in this one and I was shaking my head at him, but he pulled through for me in the end. That's the guy I always thought he was. The one hockey tv company just gave me the ick the whole time. Brenna could do so much better and deserved so much better. Over all I did enjoy this one. 

BLURB:
Step into a world of hot hockey players, feisty heroines and steamy scenes . . .

Everyone says I'm a bad girl. They're only partly right - I don't let fear rule me, and I certainly don't care what people think. But I draw the line at sleeping with the enemy. As the daughter of Briar's head hockey coach, I'd be vilified if I hooked up with a player from a rival team.

And that's who Jake Connelly is. Harvard's star forward is arrogant, annoying and too attractive for his own good. But fate is cruel - I require his help to secure a much-coveted internship, and the sexy jerk isn't making it easy for me.

I need Connelly to be my fake boyfriend. For every fake date . . . he wants a real one.

Which means this bad girl is in big trouble. Nothing good can come from sneaking around with Jake Connelly. My father would kill me, my friends will revolt, and my post-college career is on the line. But while it's getting harder and harder to resist Jake's oozing sex appeal and cocky grin, I refuse to fall for him.

That's the one risk I'm not willing to take.
