Publisher's Summary

At 18, Landon Miller was sure about two things - he was a submissive and he was going to be with Gregory Douglas for the rest of his life. That was until parents and school got in the way, and he found himself in New York, thousands of miles from the man who had learned how to take him in hand.

Years later, behind the bar at Rapture, the BDSM club he's built on a foundation of disillusioned dreams and broken bricks, Landon finds himself face to face with his favorite memory and greatest regret - Gregory. Determined to recapture the magic of their first love, Gregory works to right the wrongs of their past so they can move on together.

Battling through the resentment from their youth, Landon is unexpectedly called back to New York, and Gregory can't help but fear the past is repeating itself. Fighting familiar feelings of helplessness, he makes the decision to give Landon what he needs, even if that means not chasing after the man he adores...again. Gregory can only hope when Landon returns, he won't throw away the love they've fought and risked everything for.

Contains mature themes.

Second Chances

It’s easy to see Kate’s love of kink and men with emotional baggage in this book. Worth the Risk is heavy on both.

Gregory and Landon broke up just before College when Landon decided not to attend the same school as Gregory. It left them both broken. And like all events in our lives, the men interpret what transpired differently. Both are hurt and angry.

When they run into each other at the kink club Landon owns, emotions run high. It’s not easy to sort their way through. Trying to reconnect as boyfriends and Dom/Sub. Especially as Landon is quick to emotion and quick to bolt.

They have an intense BDSM relationship that was interesting to see coalesce, but there was also intense love. All the more so as an audiobook.

If you’ve never listened to a BDSM audiobook while at work…we’ll your work day is missing out! My day definitely flew by.

Good stuff

I’m pretty sure this was Narrator Alexander Candese. Some websites also states the fact.
His performance can at times be too much, but I was coming back for more over and over until I finally finished the book after a week. I was interested in the side characters and their story. I will continue to listen to the series. It is original in a way, and now that I'm used to what the author intended it to be, I think listening would be less will be less of a chore. This was extremely hot 🥵 in the end. So, sometimes it does pay off to suck it up and shut up and listen.

I recommend this audiobook for those who love BDSM. It’s yummy!

Happy Listening
