Colton’s and Ally’s Dark Love Affair
Risky Gamble – Dark Dangerous & Delicious story
The story flowed so well that I was surprised when I reached the end of the book. It held my interest from the very first. The story is well written and the characters are interesting and believable within the context of the storyline. This is a dark erotica bdsm story. There are some secrets that Colton and Ally are keeping. Its not just about steamy sexy fun between the two main characters. I cant wait to see where the next book takes Ally and Colton. There’s no HEA is this book and it ends on a cliffy. I really enjoyed this story and highly recommend it!
Risky Pleasures-Dark Intense Affair
This is book 2 in Vivian Ward’s Risky series. There are some secrets that Colton and Ally are keeping. Colton is not going to let Ally go again! Maybe Ally doesn’t want to be let go. I really enjoyed this story and highly recommend it!
Risky Love-Everything is all tied up!
This is book 3 in Vivian Ward’s Risky series. All of the secrets that Colton and Ally have been keeping are revealed. There’s a lot of working through what both want and need but they get their HEA in this book. All of the loose ends from the two previous books are tied up. I liked this story and recommend it!
3 1/2 Stars
Risky Gamble
Colton liked the way Ally was clueless to his multimillion dollar status and his connection to his new high end sex club.
He immediately fantasized about Ally, his thoughts about her definitely not vanilla. Ally, a budding journalist, wanted to get an inside scoop to write an article to expose the secret club. Getting a job at his club was the perfect way to get the intel she needed.
I didn’t like the super naive persona Ally gave off especially at her journalism job. I felt like she was a little fish in a tank of female sharks.
I did like the way she stood up to Colton when she observed him in a sensual lip lock with Brooke, one of his “girls”.
Risky Pleasures
Sorry to say this book starts with huge creep factor points for Colton as he refused to take Ally’s no as an answer.
He literally took what he wanted and he wanted Ally.
I liked the feisty way she responded to him in the beginning.
So I really disliked Colton in this second book as he treated Ally like any other girl he’d broken in before. He was even surprised that she was upset when he allowed Brooke into his home as Tyler’s date. He also was intent on teaching her a lesson and treated her in degrading ways. Even though it was a turn on for Ally, this story was written in a way that brought out the elements of BDSM that I dislike. The discipline with intent to hurt, the fantasizing of choking and having Ally passed out as he used her. Not sexy or romantic at all.
Then Colton suddenly changed tactics when Ally got angry about his contract with Brooke.
This Colton was a lot more appealing and Brooke readily forgave him. Kudos to the author for making Colton palatable again and a worthy H to Ally.
Risky Love
This last book had Colton teaming up with Ally to mitigate the potential scandals due to the information on her computer exposing Colton’s sex club.
To my dismay, Colton used this as a reason to punish Ally, and the dark disturbing BDSM came into play yet again. I kept feeling off balanced as Colton’s dark side was creepy instead of sexy as I’m sure it was meant to be.
Also not a fan of sharing or FF scenes when the main couple claim to love each other.

I love that all three books are in one book, because each of first two are cliffhangers. I love that Ally is a very strong individual and she will fight for what she wants. Colton is a strong man but also rich and know what he wants and that is Ally. All the troubles they get into make for a great series. I cannot tell you more because I do not want to spoil the story for you. Enjoy
This box set is the story of Colton and Ally’s romance. I truly enjoyed reading each story. All three stories were well written. I enjoyed the storyline.it was a page turner and kept my interest.

This wonderful box set gives you all three of the books in this series at once. This dark romance serves as the background for the cart and mouse relationship that evolves between Colton and Ally. Drama, steam, intense emotions, twists, heartache and surprises are cleverly crafted into a very entertaing series that will keep you on edge and fully invested in the ending.
I loved this story! I am glad it’s in a box set because I don’t like cliffhangers or stories that are more than one book for each couple because I get inpatient lol. There are dark desires in this but it’s so well-written that even if someone is not into the BDSM lifestyle may enjoy it. Ally and Colton were absolutely hot. I only wish there would have been more scenes with them exploring and especially once they visited the club together.

The Risky Series is a trilogy that is all together in one book. It’s great because you don’t have to wait for the next book to be released and downloaded, it is all included in this set and can be read as one continuous book!
The first book is called Risky Gamble, and we see how Colton and Ally meet and she begins working for him at his secret sex club. They have an instant attraction to each other but Ally has a covert agenda and tries to keep him at arms length. Good luck with that! This book ends in a big cliffhanger.
The second book, Risky Pleasures, has Colton crazy after his loss of Ally and more determined than ever to get her back. He brings her back on his own terms, and as they work things out, two women throw monkey wrenches into their lives and practically destroy it!
The third book, Risky Love, is the conclusion of the trilogy. Our couple manage to get their HEA after solving their problems. I loved seeing Ally take charge and shape her own destiny. I thoroughly enjoyed this series! 5 STARS!!!
This trilogy is a definite must-read. I highly recommend everyone read this amazing series.
Risky Gamble:
Risky Gamble is a dark read about Colton a sexy billionaire and Ally a journalist looking for a big story. This was a quick read it has everything needed for a great book, drama, steamy sex, great characters, a great storyline, and a dark romance.
Risky Pleasures:
Risky Pleasures picks up where the cliffhanger in book 1 Risky Gamble left us and what a cliffhanger it was. Ally’s trying to move on and Colton wants her back. This is a well-written read full of drama, suspense, angst, and a dark twisted romance.
Risky Love:
A fantastic way to end this series! Colton and Ally’s journey is intense, full of drama and a dark sexy ride.
Wow, such a good book set! Colton meets Ally at the flower shop. He’s instantly attracted to her. Ally is very angry at Colton several times in this book set, but she remains calm throughout the whole process. Good book set, well written!
