I just love stories written by these 2 authors either together or separate. Worth Every Risk was such an amazing story that I can’t give it enough praise. This 6 star story comes highly recommended. Let me tell you how my emotions went.
At 10% of the book, I was bawling like a baby, Andi’s a neonatal nurse.
At 20%, I was laughing so much at Chase on how he was handling his current situation.
At 30% I hated Chase with how he was letting his anger make the worst decisions.
At 40% I was still royally pissed at Chase.
And then I laughed and cried some more.
I guess you get the picture here. It was a whirl wind of emotions. What I look for in a great story are the characters. Andie, Violet and even Chase eventually really made me fell so much. These characters were perfectly created to fit this story. They latched themselves to my heart, body and soul.
I loved this storyline that sucked me in so deep that I didn’t know how to leave this story once I was done reading it. Once I started reading it, I couldn’t put it down for very long. Too bad I had to go to work because I would have easily read it in one sitting.
This is an highly emotional story that made me shed quite a few tears. It’s an highly captivating and addicting story. So be warned that once you start reading it, get comfortable because you might not want to leave it.
Standalone told in a dual POV with an amazing HEA. I strongly recommend this story. All of these authors previous stories are all worth the readers precious time and money.
Worth Every Risk is definitely a must read! This dynamic duo has once again brought us an emotionally charged, captivating book that you won’t want to put down! This book has an amazing build-up and development between the characters and an effortless flow to their whole journey. I was not expecting the emotional rollercoaster that this book turned out to be with all it’s twists and turns. This book captured me from the sweet and sensual beginning to the emotional and satisfying ending when I was left wanting more!
Andi and Chase have grown up together and they belong together but when Chase gets the opportunity of a lifetime, Andi knows that she can’t be the one to hold him back. It seems like every obstacle that could get in there way of true happiness did and by the time Chase was finally ready to officially stake his claim, it might already be too late. Andi has a pretty big secret that she’s been keeping from everyone and it threatens to destroy her whole family. Will they finally have a real chance at being together or will her secret tear them even more apart?
Their story tore at my heart strings and might have made me shed a tear or two but it also made me laugh and cheer them on every step of the way. This book is definitely one that will stick with me for a long time after reading. I cannot wait to see what this dynamic duo has in store for us next!

We have another hit on our hands from Terri E Laine and A.M. Hargrove. These two authors are fabulous on their own but when they join forces the stories we get are SPECTACULAR!!! I fell in love with Worth Every Risk.
I didn’t know what to expect going into this book, but this book exceeded any expectations I could have come up with. This was such an emotional love story. This is a story you will want to go in blind to and experience all the “feels” this book has to offer.
All I will say about this storyline is that it is a standalone novel told in Dual POV. I want to say that this is a companion novel to their Wilde Players Series. You will see past characters from those books in this one, because the Hero is the younger brother to Fletcher Wilde (Hero in Sidelined) You don’t have to read any of those books prior to this one to fully enjoy this story. The authors do a wonderful job filling in all the blanks when needed.
Worth Every Risk is a friends to lovers story but also a second chance romance. So if those story types are your favorite, then this is a book you shouldn’t miss out on!!! This story was such an emotional rollercoaster. I didn’t have clue where the authors would take me in this story, but I am so glad I was along for the ride. Andi and Chase’s story will rip your heart to shreds but it will also be put back together in the most perfect way. This story was written to flawlessly that you can’t help but fall in love with all the characters and feel everything they feel. You will laugh, cry, love and even yell from time to time. But like I said it is all worth it in the end. This is a fairly quick read but it lacks for nothing. You will be hard pressed to put this book down once you start reading. If my personal life hadn’t caused me to stop reading at times, I would’ve devoured this book in one sitting!!!
If you haven’t read anything by these authors, then Worth Every Risk is the perfect place to start. Once you experience their writing you will want to go and read all the books they have out there. Worth Every Risk comes HIGHLY recommended by me. But don’t take my word for it….Read this book!!!!
omg, what an emotional, and steamy second chance romance! Chase and Andi have been friends since they were kids. They started a secret relationship, not wanting their families to keep them apart if they knew. When Chase has an offer to play soccer professionally out of the country, Andi stays back to finish college. But as time passes, Andi wants to be independant and they soon lose touch. But finally Chase returns to claim the only woman he has loved, only to get blindsided. I really loved Chase and Andi, even when I didn’t agree with their decisions and actions, and the depth and strength of their love for each other. There are some very emotional twists to this story that are heartbreaking and had me totally captivated. Narrators Savannah Peachwood, and Chris Chappell are amazing. They are a perfect team, allowing me to feel every emotion and to be totally immersed in this world.
great reading,
Theresa
Chase and Andi are destined to be together, but are they? Characters are lovable and strong through many obstacles. Great book.
4.5 Stars
I love the Wilde family and Chase is definitely one of my favorites.
What a beautiful story that’s turned out to be. I rooted for the characters and for them to get their second chance right from the beginning. I loved the course that the story took but felt that the pace slowed down at a few parts.
I was thrilled about the whole Wilde family clan and to have them all back in this story. I remember all too well when Chase was mentioned in one of their books and it made me so happy that we finally got his story.
There was much more to this book than what it first appeared to be and I was engrossed in how the story progressed.
It’s as much about Chase’s career as it’s about regrets, second chances, families and struggles in life. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed with this book because it was a darn good story that was hard to put down.
The Story:
One could say that Chase and Andi were each other’s one true love right from the moment of their first kiss when they were still kids. But not every true love finds a happily ever after especially when they meet so early on, considering life takes different paths with school and jobs. The question now is if theirs will get a HAE?
There times Chase was a complete butt, then there were the other times when the man made you fall head over heels for him, “that’s great. You find out and I’ll pay for all her travel arrangements.” This man, I’m not sure how I lived without him. I draw him down and kiss him deeply.” Chase you know isn’t bashful at all, “you might want to …” Her finger motions up and down, so I glance to where she’s pointing and realize I never got dressed. I’m running around naked in front…” I loved this book, it was such an emotional read
Andi and Chase’s second chance romance story was very enjoyable.
Worth Every Risk is a fun, emotional and loving book.
I like both Terri E. Laine and A.M. Hargrove and look forward to their futures books together.
I am a huge fan of both Terri E. Laine and A.M. Hargrove, so when they write together, I fan girl hard. Back in 2016, they wrote a series of novellas about the Wilde family. There was always one family member that I wanted his story. Worth Every Risk is finally Chase Wilde’s story!!!!
Andi and Chase’s story is a second chance romance that will run you through the ringer of feelings. As they struggle to get back the love and trust they once had, they go through a horrific event that could bring them closer to rip them apart.
There was a lot of emotion in the book and I fell so hard for Chase. He is a swoony soccer player that I just couldn’t get enough of. I’m always team Wilde! Great read!
4,5 little one, Wilde, health threatening stars
Oh dear, this one kept me going and going and didn’t let me sleep.
Andi and Chase are best friends before they fall in love. Chase Wilde is on his way to become a football/soccer star, Andi wants to be independent and provide for herself. But when they part ways, there is more on the line than just her dreams.
I loved this story from the start. And when the story unfolded, I wanted more and more and more.
They made me fall head over heels, I could have cracked thick headed and kick butts and then I swooned and was all smiles because sweetness came to amazement.
There was one twist in the story that let my heart bleed, my tears spill (again while in the car, the hubs refuses to be seen with me in public again). I wasn’t aware, this book includeds that topic. This fight is ours too. It hit me hard and I was on the verge of skipping the book but I put on my big girl pants and finished this hard and sweet and sad and hot and cute and cruel and lovely story about love and fate and loss and about what’s important in the end.
Thank you so much. I loved the story and the characters.
This book has so much going on in it. I guess I ended up not having or disliking it, but i definitely didn’t love it. Let’s discuss.
1. Andi’s reasoning for not telling Chase about their daughter only holds up when you don’t consider the fact she kept the secret for three years. She told Violet all about him and her family, implying she would tell Chase and their families about Violet, but, I repeat, it’s been three years. Her parents still lived in the same town as his family. She could have easily tracked him down.
2. Chase still loved Andi but slept with other women. Three years. He could have done anything in that time to let her know how he felt.
3. Andi’s neighbor having a crush on her is almost as unnecessary as Chase’s stalker ex. Both have potential to cause great conflict and tension, but it doesn’t really happens because….
4. CW/TW: serious child illness. Stop sneaking stuff like this in for shock value. Use warnings. People read to escape things like dealing with their illnesses or that of a loved one. They need to know when it’s going to be in a book. Let the reader decide if they want to deal with that!
There was more, but that’s really what sticks out right now.
If you haven’t read any books by these two authors yet, I definitely suggest to pick this one up and afterwards you’ll definitely want to read all of their other joined books 🙂 I absolutely loved this book from beginning until end; I just couldn’t put it down! The story of Chase and Andi was loving but heartbreaking at the same time. A story that will make your heart melt and you’ll still remember after. I had tears in my eyes when reading but my heart was healed in the end.
Andi has been in love with Chase ever since they were kids but never thought they would become more than friends. And when they do decide to be together, they keep it a secret from everyone around them. But when Chase’s football career takes off, she doesn’t want him to choose so she makes the hardest decision she’s ever made. Now a couple of years later, Chase decides to go after the one person that got away from him but Andi has a secret she’s hidden from not only him but from everyone else and when it all finally comes out, both will have to choose where they go from there next… Will they finally have a chance to be together or will her secret tear them even more apart?..
