Oh Wow!!! Spoilers!!!
By Amazon Customer
It was so sweet. I adored the main characters. I did feel bad that he did not wait for her like she did for him and how he went and slept with the woman he married soon after the heroine told him she loved him when they were younger. I wish he would have divorced his wife and waited for her after that. I mean he made a mistake with that woman and it seems instead of trying to fix it and seeing if the heroine and him still had something, he continued to be with other women while the heroine stayed faithful to her love for him. It is always unfair that the heroes are man whores and the women are faithfully in love for life. That gets me fired up really fast. Why can't men just admit to love and stop sleeping around in these books??? I mean seriously, be a "man" and go after what you want and stop being such a darn coward!!

A wonderfully heart-warming and emotional, yet sexy romance, a MUST read!
By Stella (Ex Libris)
One of the biggest (and best) surprises of 2012 was discovering Victoria James and reading her debut novel The Billionaire's Christmas Baby. So as you can see A Risk Worth Taking started with an unfair head start it had to measure up to its predecessor, and I am very happy and relieved to report that not only did it not disappoint, it was just as wonderful as Victoria James' previous novel!
A Risk Worth Taking is the first book in Victoria James' new contemporary romance series taking place in the small town of Red River and featuring the Manning brothers (Quinn, Jackson and Evan). A Risk Worth Taking is Quinn's, the eldest brother's story.
Our heroine, big city girl, successful interior designer Holly suddenly becomes the guardian of Ella, her little niece of 6 months when her sister and her husband are killed in a car accident. She goes back to renovate her childhood home and sell it to put the money in a trust for the baby and since Quinn is the local and successful contractor who will help her with her plans.
Holly was a heroine I not only liked but admired. She was ambitious yet warm-hearted and she took on the role of guardian of her orphaned niece even though she didn't know anything about babies or mothering. Not only was she grieving for her sister (and her husband), she also felt guilty for being the one alive to take care of Ella and scared that one day when was all grown up she would resent her and hate her because it was Holly who brought her up and not her own mother. My heart went out to her when reading about her grief and vulnerability, but her strength and how she tried to cope with these were admirable. Holly is all alone having lost her parents when she was little, then her grandparents who brought her up and now her beloved sister with whom she was so close, she doesn't have any other family than Ella, and all the loss and grieving sadly left their mark on her.
"A few weeks ago, he'd called her cold for selling the house. Now, he knew. The vulnerability that she tried so desperately to hide was staring him in the face. Holly was afraid. This place was her old house, but everyone she loved was gone. The memories were haunting her."
Quinn was a dreamy hero: all responsible and gentleman-like, and it didn't hurt he was swoon-worthy sexy either ;-)
Quinn and Holly go way back: they practically grew up together and Quinn was Holly's first crush and teenage love, and on her last night before leaving for college she declared her love, but he refused her.
"She'd been na�ve and trusting--and told him that she loved him. He knew, looking into her eyes, that he loved her, too, but never said the words aloud. He didn't want to be the guy to hold her back. She'd been too young to know what she wanted for the rest of her life."
Although a decade has gone by the humiliation is still fresh in Holly's mind, and to make matters worse Quinn is even more drop-dead gorgeous than before. She feels her traitorous body reacting, melting to his proximity. Kudos to Victoria James, because the chemistry and attraction between Holly and Quinn was palpable, off the charts!
"Holly, do you know what I want to do right now?" Holly swallowed. Hard.
"Take a hot bath?" He shook his head and took a step closer. She could barely breathe.
"A hot shower?" He shook his head again and his eyes dropped to her mouth. Her lips parted involuntarily.
"Coffee?" she managed to whisper as she heard the beep signaling the brew cycle had finished. He shook his head again and stood a few inches away from her.
"I want to kiss you," he said, his voice deep, and then he gently took her wrist and tugged her toward him."I want to kiss you and taste you and never stop."
I loved Quinn's intensity, the strength and conviction behind his words were so powerful I could feel them resonate through the pages:
"Quinn turned, ready to leave, but then paused."I never kissed you the way I wanted to because I knew that if I did I wouldn't be able to stop. I wouldn't be able to get enough of you. And if I had thought for one second that you meant what you said that night, I would have come after you," he said."
There were lots of delicious sexual tension and sparks flying, but their relationship was so much more than just physical. Loved all the scenes where Quinn teased Holly, made me chuckle out loud.
And of course besides the romance aspect of the story I have to point out that A Risk Worth Taking is as much a story of a woman becoming a mother and a man finding himself a family as it is the story of how Holly and Quinn found love.
"Quinn's eyes opened slowly, and Holly held her breath. Her heart constricted painfully as his hand immediately went to smooth Ella's hair. And then his eyes landed on hers, filled with the emotion that she wanted to run from. He was the man that she could never forget--hard and strong, combined with that mix of tenderness that only he could pull off so well. He made her want to give up her solitary existence, abandon her career in Toronto. He made her want to believe that people stayed, that people lived, that love could conquer everything."
Verdict: A Risk Worth Taking had everything I loved in The Billionaire's Christmas Baby: it had just as much heart and heart-warming/heart-squeezing emotion, equally wonderful and lovable characters and a terrific, captivating romance with such a vivid chemistry that you could feel those sparks flying off the pages. A Risk Worth Taking has everything and more you could expect and want from a contemporary romance, with her captivating writing style, engaging characterization, witty humour and steamy scenes, Victoria James gifts us with another keeper. A Risk Worth Taking is a wonderful first instalment to this new series, I can't wait to read about the other Manning brothers. Readers, you'd better put A Risk Worth Taking on your to-be-read lists, trust me, you don't want to miss this series!
I give A Risk Worth Taking 5 stars!
Plot: 8/10
Characters: 9/10
Writing: 10/10
Ending: 10/10
Cover: 6/10 a bit too bland and forgettable

Definitely an author I'll keep my eye out for
By Roz @ My Written Romance
I enjoyed this book. It was sweet, sad and emotional, with a healthy dose of unrequited love thrown in to the mix. I also really enjoy reading books set in Canada. I lived there for a year and loved it, so it's always nice to revisit it even if only in print.
Holly has been thrust into the role of parent to her niece Ella after the sudden & tragic death of her sister and brother-in-law. What I liked about how this was handled was that Holly wasn't made out to be some clueless dummy. She's like any new parent, getting through each day learning something new about this little person in their lives. It's just the method in which she becomes a parent that differs from most. I also really appreciated that there was no evil grandparents or aunts threatening to take Ella away.
Coming home after 10 years to find your contractor is the guy you made a fool of yourself over before you left would be a little mortifying. Quinn comes across as a really nice, thoughtful guy with a whole lot of sexy and heroic about him. He really wanted Holly back in the day, but didn't want to be what held her back from fulfilling her dreams. I like that this past event wasn't over-used as a source of conflict, as it quite often can be.
The romance between Holly and Quinn was slow-burning (well, 10 years is a pretty slow burn) and very sweet. Don't go into it expecting any crazy hot sexytimes, it's just not that kind of book. And it didn't need to be - the attraction played out at just the right heat level.
After a recent read where plot moppets were in abundance, I enjoyed reading a child in the storyline that was real and not just used to advance the plot artificially.
I have not read anything else by Victoria James, but based on this, she is definitely an author I'll keep my eye out for.
