The greater the risk, the hotter the reward…
Homicide cop Troy Bennett had a reputation on the Chicago PD for being fearless and in control—until the night his daredevil partner is killed during a raid. From that moment on, he swears he’ll never again be responsible for the loss of a loved one. To escape his demons, Troy transfers to the NYPD, bringing him up close and personal with Ruby Elliott, a beautiful, street-savvy pool hustler.
Reckless and stubbornly independent, Ruby embodies everything Troy’s avoiding, but when she walks into O’Hanlon’s Pub and blows his carefully laid plans to hell, Troy knows he has to have her—risks be damned. But there’s a connection between Ruby’s shadowed past and a case Troy’s working involving a notorious Brooklyn felon, throwing her safety into jeopardy. Confronted with his biggest fear, will Troy push Ruby away to keep her safe or fight to keep her in his arms where she belongs?

Fiona's thoughts:
Troy is a cop from Chicago, who has transferred to New York city to escape the guilt of his partners death. Ruby is a pool hustler, who is trying to go straight and make a better life for herself.

Even given their opposite sides of the law, the attraction is there with out a doubt.The story moves along as you would expect it to. Ruby 's past puts her in harm's way now. Troy is a alpha kinda guy and feels the need to protect her. His Risk to Take is a good quick read, nothing shockingly different from this kind of story, but was delivered in a clear fast paced manner.
