About this listen

Every man she’s ever known has hurt her…until him.

Life hasn’t been kind to Harper Rain. In fact, so far, it’s only proven the one person she can rely on is herself. But when all her efforts to escape her family fail, she takes the last desperate option—run.

With little more than a few dollars to her name, she ends up in the small town of Misty Peak. The first person she meets is a tall mountain of a man…whose kindness is only outshone by his captivating smile.

As a former Delta Forces soldier, the urge to protect others is in Cody Walker’s genes. So when a woman walks into his bar in the middle of a storm—with only a backpack and a black eye—ignoring her isn’t an option.

Trust doesn’t come easy to Harper, so Cody starts by giving her a job. The more he gets to know the enigmatic woman, the more he’s convinced that slowly working his way behind her shields is well worth the effort.

Unfortunately for them both, time is a luxury they can’t afford. Harper's pursuer is catching up, and if they can’t have her, no one can…least of all Cody.

Reckless Hope is a small-town, stand-alone romantic suspense in the Reckless series by bestselling author Nyssa Kathryn.

Great Beginning to a great series!!!!

First book in the series is about Cody and Harper. This book had a great feeling revolving around a small town, with close knit family of brothers. I loved how the author was able to incorporate all of the brother's stories and keep you on the edge of your seat. Also, the narration is on point and done differently, both narrators interact with each other's characters and it works quite well.

Great story!

I was hooked from the beginning The whole book is written in the third person, which took a bit of getting used to. I didn't see the twists coming. I can't wait for the next in the series.

Good listen, narrators are good too

I swear this girl should win an award for most kidnappings/bad guy interactions. Like why advertise they're all super buff protectors when they can't secure.. literally anything. He loves to tell her she's his, she's safe bleh bleh bleh but the man can't do any of that lol Maybe I'm used to mafia guys that ACTUALLY secure places with cameras and competency.

The story was good overall, he does all the right things (aside from keeping someone obviously targeted safe) The nickname 30 seconds after meeting was cheesy and cringe every time it was used.

If a book doesn't frustrate you somewhere it's not doing its job. As much sass as I have toward this book, it feeds the damsel in distress category. Sappy sweet HEA

A great start to a new series

The narrators were perfection. I truly feel that Jason Clarke can do no wrong haha. Avery Caris is amazing. I love her voice. Having both Jason and Avery in this story was the best combo!

• Thoughts:
Nyssa! Nyssa, Nyssa, Nyssa. She did it again, another great start to what I know will be a great series. We met Cody in Liam's story. So we know Cody and His brothers have a protective streak that is a mile long. Cody does not disappoint he is fierce and protective of Harper. He does not question his attraction to her either. It was instant and I love it. We get some twists and turns in this story. And just like many if Nyssa 's books. I had this book read in a few days. I always end her books feeling happy and good. So excited for the rest of this series in Mystic Peak.

Great start to this series!

Reckless Hope is book #1 in the new Reckless series. Nyssa Kathryn knows exactly how to tug on your heartstrings, make you laugh with the family banter, binge to the end to find out who did it,then steam up the sheets with the spice! Harper Rain is running from her sh!tshow of a life and lands at Cody Walker's bar...with a black eye. At first sight, he's pronounced himself her protector and is doing all he can to show her not every man is out to hurt her. But Cody's past comes back to threaten them and Harper's past is hot on her heels. Cody has a bunch of single brothers and a sister, so I KNOW we're in for some great stories! Don't miss out on the start of this fabulous family!!

The narration was a shining point for sure. Jason Clarke and Avery Caris (enough said??) brought the big guns for this one. Growly, broody Cody and Harper were voice to perfection by this duo. 5 binge-worthy stars!!

Cody & Harper!

As soon as I heard about this, I could not wait for the chance to listen. Nyssa Kathryn quickly became one of my favorite romantic suspense authors and this story is no exception. Meet Cody, Nylah's twin who I mt in Blue Halo #8. No, you don't have to listen to the Blue Halo series, but it is so good, you will definitely want to! And what a man! When Harper bumps into Cody, she is a mess. No money to her name, no place to stay and a black eye, Cody's protective gene pops into action and he begins his mission to take care of her. Little does she know, his instant attraction and kindness is just what she needs. Harper has had it tough, and now on the run and trying to figure out how to start life over and stay under the radar is a hard task. But she is finding all of the people in Mystic Peak to be helpful and loving. Exactly the kind of town she would love to be in. But will the danger she is running to stay away? Nyssa Kathryn knows how to capture my attention and keep it. This town is all about family, the characters are sweet and lovable, protective and the kind I would want surrounding me. Plus the cupcakes! That is a huge bonus! The suspense stays high and trying to figure out who is creating the trouble had me wondering til the end. Loved this start to the new series and can't wait to hear Tilly and Kayden's story!

Jason Clarke and Avery Caris bring the story alive with a thrilling narration. Clarke plays the swoony Cody with all the warmth and protective vibes. Caris comes in with the hesitancy that Harper has, but has her heart slowly melting. Together they build the suspense, keep it high and at the same time give all the romantic feelings. Loved this!

Small-Town Romantic Suspense!

This is the first book in the Reckless series, a small-town, stand-alone romantic suspense. This series is interconnected with the Blue Halo series (#8 Liam, Cody's twin Nylah's story). This is a great start to the series. I liked Harper and Cody's story. Cody, a former Delta Forces soldier, and a bar owner, is handsome, protective, and supportive. Harper is beautiful, strong, and smart. They are both great characters. Their story is passionate, and entertaining. The storyline is suspenseful and captivating, filled with drama, intrigue, danger, and twists and turns. The supporting characters are interesting. I liked Kayden and Nylah, Cody's siblings. Avery Caris and Jason Clarke did an excellent job bringing these characters and this story to life. I enjoyed it. Looking forward to listening to the next book in the series.

A wonderful start to the series

Once again this author delivers a story that has heart, substance, and wonderful characters in this first audiobook of the new series.
To say that Harper Rain has had a tough life, is putting it mildly. When she finds herself at her wits end, she leaves everything behind and with little money ends up in Misty Peak during a storm.
The only lights on the street are in a bar and she goes there in hopes of finding a referral to a cheap motel.
When she enters and meets a gorgeous and enormous man, she never would have predicted what would come after.
Cody Walker , owner of the bar, was once a Delta Force operator and returned home to help his dying father. He is a protector by nature and when Harper arrives at the bar, with a black eye and in need of help, he doesn’t hesitate to give it.
From that moment on, the attraction intensifies, but so do the attacks and the danger surrounding Harper.
In this engaging plot there was never a dull moment. Lots of guessing whodunit, and wondering what would happen next.
The main characters as well as the secondary ones were well developed.
If you are familiar with the author’s Blue Helo series, Liam makes an appearance and his person, Nylah, is Cody’s sister.
A great start to the series. Can’t wait for the next story .
The narrators Avery Caris and Jason Clarke did an excellent job with the various voices.
I was entrusted a copy of this book. The opinions expressed are solely my own.
