From USA TODAY bestselling author Megan Matthews comes a romance with a protective SEAL and the new girl in town. Can Crispin carry Stella’s baggage and earn her heart, or will they both end up swimming with the fishes? I took a chance on this small coastal town when my service as a Navy SEAL ended. Stopping the local drug trade is an adventure, but the true fun doesn’t start until I meet the … start until I meet the hottie across the street. She’s far removed from the crime problem, and I plan to keep it that way.
After finding her fiancé in bed with her best friend, Stella needs a quiet escape to figure out her next move. No one warned her she won’t find it in Pelican Bay. She isn’t planning to put down roots, but I won’t make leaving easy.
Throw in the notorious bakery girls and sparks will fly, too bad they’re from gun fire. As lives converge, unknown enemies come in from sea, and nobody is safe anymore.

I found the book to be engaging and very entertaining with some humorous and fun moments and it held my attention the end. Excellent writing and this page turner is riddled with passion, a horrible cheating ex, the bakery girls, a garden and lawn that won’t cooperate, lots of drama and suspense, danger, a stalker and a awesome dog.
Leaving her cheating ex behind, Stella moves to Pelikan Bay to stay with her brother, where she moves in across the road from Crispin, an ex navy seal and current security expert. When she inadvertently gets involved in a drug operation, the heat is on and not just the investigation part, the chemistry between Stella and Crispin is scorching. I really had a great time reading this delightful, witty and humorous story. A true gem and must read!

Accidental Risk was another great addition to the Pelican Bay Security Series by Megan Matthews. This time it is Crispin and Stella’s story. Stella is staying at her brother’s house in Pelican Bay while he is on assignment with the military. Her neighbor Crispin is an ex Navy Seal that works with the security firm. Stella has just gone through a nasty breakup with her ex boyfriend and she is not looking for another relationship but Crispin is making her feel things she never has before. This story was funny, steamy, and of course suspenseful because of course the bakery girls can’t stay out of trouble! Highly recommend.
Loving this series. Great read and romance. I want to live in Pelican Bay! Ready to see what is next.

Spoilers –
Stella finds her boyfriend in bed with her best friend, and leaves the city to stay in Maine where her brother lives, but is away on deployment. Crispin, ex Navy Seal, works for a security company in the drug division, and lives across the street. They connect, feelings and romance starts, then it all hits the fan as more and more starts to happen. Shootings, knife wielding ex friends, miscommunication, Hush (dog who does not hold up her end of the plan), the bakery girls, drugs and more keep this story flowing. The characters are bold and determined and the backstories were terrific. Romance does have a chance to flourish and get hotter. You will not be able to put this book down as it all goes so fast. Off to read more by this author.

Accidental Risk, book 8 in the Pelican Bay Security Series is a very well-written story that had wonderful characters. These well-developed characters are likable and believable and have wonderful chemistry. This is an exciting action packed suspense filled romance story. A must read standalone story in a series of books that I have only read one other and now I must read them all.

Stella is a newcomer to Pelican Bay when she catches her dirtbag cheating ex-fiancé in bed with her ex-best friend and decides to get out of town to start over. House-sitting for her brother is the perfect plan while he is on a mission.
Crispin lives across the street from Stella and works for Pelican Bay Security on their drug task force. Stella already isn’t trustful of anyone after her recent betrayals, but she is attracted to Crispin. When she gets herself inadvertently tangled in the dangerous drug investigation, is she ready to run from Crispin too? Will Crispin try to get her to stay and be part of his life?
The books in this series are always so interesting with their crazy mysteries and goings on. I enjoy the characters and the troubles they get themselves into! Grab your copy and see if Stella can get out of the mess she’s in and if she is willing to accept her HEA with Crispin.

REVIEW
Crispin and Stellas story was so quirky. I loved the way these characters came together and had off the chart chemistry.

This has danger, excitement, suspense, and humor along with the steamy parts. This sucked into Pelican Bay and now will be reading the other books in this series. Stella and Crispin have amazing chemistry together and I like how their relationship develops after the heartbreak she suffered.
Quiet little town…
Stella is looking for a quiet little town to recover from a cheating ex. Instead she came to Pelican Bay! There is nothing quiet about it. I’ll admit that I’m reading this series out of order but that’s not affecting my enjoyment of it.

This is book eight in the Pelican Bay Security series. This book reads as a standalone. I haven’t read books 5-7 yet and I never felt lost. It starts a handful of months after book 4 ends. I enjoyed being back in Pelican Bay and nothing makes me laugh more than the bakery girls, specially Katy who is very skilled at finding trouble at every turn. This book made me laugh out loud. It also has a good amount of action and hot/steamy parts. It’s another good addition to the series and I can’t wait for book nine.
Crispin works for Ridge at Pelican Bay Security. Stella is staying at her brother’s house while he’s out on a mission. Her brother’s house is across the street from Crispin and he’s been watching her butcher her brother yard from his living room window. She catches her fiancé cheating on her with her best friend so getting out of town and away from those two is her number one priority. This leaves Stella feeling like she can’t trust anyone, and rightly so but she finds herself drawn to Crispin and telling him details she didn’t even share with her brother. Ridge and his crew are still embroiled in cleaning up the town of a drug smuggling ring and poor Stella gets caught up in the middle of it. Will this cause Stella to leave town and get as far from Crispin and his job? Can Crispin convince her to stay?

Stella and Crispin. Pure chemistry. Love Crispin and his protective ways. Love how crazy Pelican Bay is. Love all the girls in the bakery and how they all band together. A good fun read.
