About this listen

Ellie

Lincoln Alexander might think he’s too old for me, but he’s wrong. A fourteen-year age gap is nothing when you’re desperate to feel alive again.

The wealthy business owner has only ever seen me as off limits, but he has the power to put me back together—to chase away my demons with just his touch.

So, for one intense night, without him knowing who I am, I put my trust and pleasure in his hands.

My plan is to walk away, ready to move forward with my life, but when the doctor tells me that I’m pregnant, I find myself taking two steps back.

Lincoln

One night isn’t enough with the masked, green-eyed woman who walked into my club and turned my world upside down.

After I gave her what she wanted, again and again, she walked away without a trace.

When I finally discover the identity of the mysterious beauty who stole my heart on Valentine’s Day—and the secret she’s been keeping—my heart stops.

Ellie Bardot is all grown up, but I remember the innocent girl she was, even if she doesn’t. I hate that she lied to me, almost as much as I hate that I still want her.

Now I’m torn between being the man she needs me to be and doing the right thing.

LOVED!!

After a traumatic event from Ellie's past leaves her with intimacy issues, she turns to the one person she trusts the most, Lincoln. In an attempt to bring some pleasure back into her life, Ellie plans to seduce Lincoln during a masquerade party at his club without him know who she is. Several months later, Ellie finds out she's pregnant.

Lincoln's brother Micah visits Ellie in California and discovers she's pregnant, he brings her back home where she tells him and her sister everything that happened to her when she was 15 and that Lincoln is the baby's father. Furious with Lincoln thinking he took advantage of Ellie, Micah confronts Lincoln and punches him in the face. After Ellie explains what she did and it's not Lincoln's fault, he realizes the woman he can't get out of his head and has been searching for is Ellie and she is carrying his baby.

Lincoln finally realizes the 14 year age difference doesn't matter any more and will do everything possible to show Ellie he's in love with her and their baby. When someone from her past reappears and is out for revenge will it keep her and Lincoln from finding their much deserved HEA.

Great narration by Lexi Evans and Gregory Salinas.

Age gap

I couldn't wait for Ellie and Lincoln’s story when I read the first in the series. The attraction Ellie felt towards Lincoln from the beginning was so sweet. She trusted him since she first met him. I really enjoyed the relationship that bloomed between them. I liked that we got both of their points of views throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.

I did this on audio and really enjoyed it. The narration was so well done.

Super addictive

This audio was even better than the book. I was hooked with the book but I was obsessed with this audio. This couples story was addictive as the narrators brought their story to life. Loved it.

Romantic Suspense

A Risk Worth Taking by Nikki Ash is an age gap romantic suspense romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Lexi Evans and Gregory Salinas. This is the second book in the Falling in Love series.

I absolutely love Nikki's books. I can't help but binge them in one sitting. I really enjoyed the relationship that bloomed between Lincoln and Ellie. I liked that we got both of their points of views throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.

Gregory and Lexi did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would recommend this book if you're looking for an age gap romance, secret pregnancy romance, forbidden romance, or romantic suspense.

Amazing story!

They both went through so much to be together I was stuck in this story. I was like how are they ever going to make this work, obsticle after obstacle and began to worry there was going to be a cliffhanger but they finally had there happily ever after. But I was soooo wrapped up in this till the end. Fantastic narration as well. #theflock #pinkflamingoproductions

Good story

A Risk Worth Taking is book #2 in the Falling in Love series. It’s an age gap, surprise pregnancy romance.

Lincoln and Ellie are the siblings from the characters in book 1. A little secret hookup leads to a lifelong relationship that neither expected. I really enjoyed the connection that grew between them throughout their book. A little suspense, drama and tension made this an interesting story.

Lexi Evans and Gregory Salinas did a nice job narrating this book.

Narrated by Lexi Evans & Gregory Salinas

Overall: 4/5 ⭐️
Performance: 4/5 ⭐️
Story: 4/5 ⭐️

This book had me hooked! I really enjoyed the plot throughout the book and it made me not want to stop listening.

The narrators were great & brought the story to life. The audio was done in dual narration and the narrators did a great job!

This was book 2 in the series & although I hadn’t read the first one, I felt like the book did a good job at not making me feel like I missed any part of the story.

This was my first Nikki Ash book and I really enjoyed the writing and story telling & have definitely become a fan!

Loved it!

Nikki Ash did it again! This was so sweet and fun! Loved seeing the characters grow and develop! Loved getting a glimpse of the characters from the previous book as well! I loved the way they were drawn too each other and even though they fought it some their love won out. Also you don’t have to do the first book to do their one it is helpful to have more of the back story on the characters. Highly recommend both of the books!

A Risk Worth Taking

This is the second book in the Falling in Love series. The first book was about Micah and Sienna. This book is about Sienna’s sister Ellie and Micah’s brother Lincoln. Some may think fourteen years may be too different in a relationship. Ellie has had a hard time being intimate with anyone since she was abducted at fourteen years old, at the end of book one. She never told anyone that she was sexually assaulted. She has been dealing with the memories and flashbacks all on her own. Now she is twenty-two years old and still never willingly been with a man. Lincoln is the only man she has ever felt safe with and been attracted to for years. Lincoln’s club is having a Valentine’s Day masquerade event. She believes this is her one true chance to be with a man that she knows will treat her right. Then their lives change when she finds out she is pregnant. This is an age gap, accidental pregnancy romance with a hint of mafia sprinkled in. Lexi Evans and Gregory Salinas did a fantastic job narrating this book.
