Brenna Epilogue  \nThe Chase  \nOther Titles by Elle Kennedy  \nAuthor’s Note  \nAbout the Author  \n[OceanofPDF. com](OceanofPDF. com)  \nTHE RISK  \nA sexy standalone novel from New York Times and international bestselling author Elle Kennedy!  \nEveryone 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.  \nAnd 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 muchcoveted internship, and the sexy jerk isn’t making it easy for me.  \nI need Connelly to be my fake boyfriend.  \nFor every fake date…he wants a real one.  \nWhich 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 postcollege 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.  \nThat’s the one risk I’m not willing to take.  \n[OceanofPDF. com](OceanofPDF. com)  \n1  \nBRENNA  \nM  \ny date is late.  \nNow, I’m not a total bitch. Usually I’ll give guys a five-minute window. I can forgive five  \nminutes of tardiness.  \nAt seven minutes, I might still be somewhat receptive, especially if the lateness is accompanied by a heads-up call or text informing me he’s going to be late. Traffic is an evil mistress. Sometimes she screws you.  \nAt ten minutes, my patience would be running thin. And if the inconsiderate ass is both ten minutes late and didn’t call? Thank you, next. I’m walking right out the door.  \nAt fifteen minutes, shame on me. Why the hell am I still at the restaurant?  \nOr, in this particular case, the diner.  \nI’m sitting in a booth at Della’s, the ’50s-themed diner in Hastings. Hastings is the small town I’m calling home for the next couple of years, but luckily, I don’t need to call my father’s house “home.” Dad and I might live in the same town, but before I transferred to Briar University, I made it clear I wouldn’t be moving in with him. I already left that  \nnest. No way am I flying back to it and subjecting myself to his overprotectiveness and terrible cooking again.  \n“Can I get you another coffee, hon?” The waitress, a curly-haired woman in a white-and-blue polyester uniform, eyes me sympathetically. She looks to be in her late twenties. Her nametag reads “Stacy,” and I’m pretty sure she knows I’ve been ditched.  \n“No, thanks. Just the bill, please.”  \nAs she walks off, I pick up my phone and shoot a quick text to my friend Summer. This is all her fault. Therefore she must face my wrath.  \nME: He stood me up.  \nSummer answers instantly, as if she’s been sitting by her phone waiting for a report. Actually, forget “as if.” She totally has. My new friend is unapologetically nosy.  \nSUMMER: OMG! NO!!  \nME: Yes.  \nSUMMER: What. a. dick. I am so so so so sorry, Bee.  \nME: Meh. Part of me’s not surprised. He’s a football player. They’re notorious douchecanoes.  \nSUMMER: I thought Jules was different.  \nME: You thought wrong.","cbCaiqYBwWrmZcWW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqYBwWrmZcWW","pdf",2490192,514,"English","# Contents\n## The Risk\n## Brenna\n## Jake\n## Epilogue\n## The Chase\n## Other Titles by Elle Kennedy\n## Author’s Note\n## About the Author","[{\"question\":\"Who is Brenna in The Risk?\",\"answer\":\"Brenna is the novel’s focal character who sets boundaries about dating and refuses to let fear or other people’s opinions control her choices.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does Brenna need Jake Connelly’s help?\",\"answer\":\"Brenna requires Jake’s assistance to secure a much-coveted internship, and she tries to manage the situation by turning it into a fake-boyfriend arrangement.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the main risk Brenna is afraid of?\",\"answer\":\"The biggest risk is that nothing good can come from sneaking around with Jake Connelly—her father, friends, and her future career are all on the line.\"}]","THE RISK - Part 1 - Brenna | PDF",792]
