KALISTA
The first time I saw him I almost swallowed my tongue.
His words wrapped around me in most delicious way. But we had an understanding, one night only. My life is messy, and there’s no place for him in it. So why is he sitting on the other side of my father’s desk as I’m informed I now have a full-time security detail, and he’s it.

Loved everything about this new story! Once I started, I couldn’t put it down!
Lissa was at her cousin’s wedding never expecting a hookup. But she had one with Abe. Three months later he is her bodyguard. When they finally find out what and who is trying to kill her the mystery gets deep. When Lissa and Michael find out they are siblings things change. They all in a mess people being killed, saved, hurt, and falling in love. Keeps you reading just to see what happens.
Loved this book. Will read more from this author
Having volunteered on a facebook group to read an ARC of a book titled *WORTH THE RISK*, I did not expect to end up being stuck with it till the very last page.
The protagonists of the story Abe and Kalista are more than your girl and boy next door.
Coming across Kalista at his brother’s wedding, Abe did not expect his one night of proposed sin would be in his face as an assignment months later.
Kalista being the daughter of a wealthy senator has lived a life governed by her father according to the profit his work can make off of her.
So what happens when Kalista, whose life has been threatened and whose protection now is of utmost importance to Abe as his security agency gets to provide her with the 24X7 presence of a bodyguard is more than just interesting.
There is drama.
There is suspense.
There is action.
There is chemistry.
There is flirting.
And there is Ellie <3.
This is the only J. B. Heller book I’ve read up until now (but I’m gonna go rectify this situation), I’m hooked. Can’t wait to read how amazing Ellie and Zac’s story turns out.
Worth the Risk by JB Heller is worth the read! I absolutely loved this book and the characters that have been created. Abe is positively swoon worthy and I knew that there was more to Kalista than what meets the eye. I went from loving her to “oh don’t be like that girl” and back to loving her again.
Kalista’s best friend Ellie is one of my
favourite characters in this book and to find out that she is getting her own book with Worth the Wait, I was over the moon.
Worth the Risk offers readers a little bit of everything from steamy scenes, to angst to the OMG moments that I love. Near the end of the book, I could not read fast enough. I just had to know how it was going to end and I was not disappointed.
Worth the Risk was a five-star book for me and I can’t want to read Worth the Wait. I am positive that JB Heller will not disappoint me with Ellie’s story.
My first read from this author and I enjoyed it very much. I love the chemistry between Abe and Kallie. Abe just smolders off the pages. It took awhile to warm up to Kalista at first but she got better as the story progressed. Can’t wait for Zak and Ellie’s book.
Highly recommended! Thought I loved the Attraction Series.. And then she does it again! If she could write 10 more books inside this new series additional, I may just want to pre order every one!!! DONT PASS THIS UP.
Thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was an awesome cross between a hot romance book and an action book. Both kinds of books I love to read so for me it was perfect. Cannot wait for the next instalment
Thank you for your review.
You will love this book! The characters are amazing, its a steamy romance with all the right things going on. You will feel every emotion under the sun whilst reading this and you won’t regret it. The story is fresh and relatable and will have you hook, line and sinker from the get go. It will get you all worked up and begging for more! Definitely a 5 star read you need in your life!
What a story greatly written alittle bit of everything in it action steamy love story what more could a girl ask for…
Abe runs a security firm. He get’s hired to protect senators daughter from a stalker. Kalista is that daughter. Can Abe keep things just business and keep her safe. Can they both leave it at one night !! I love the story and also loved we got to see a softer side to abe. Would definitely recommend this one ladies it as a bit of everything
I have read a few novels by JB Heller and I have loved every one of them, but I have to be completely honest here….This novel….Worth The Risk for me is the best from JB by far.
In this amazingly steamy, heartbreaking, soul crushing, and breathtaking read we meet Abe and Kalista. Both very different in the way their worlds work.
Abe owns his own security company after being a marine for years.
Kalista, a young and beautiful socialite, a senator’s daughter.
Two very different people.
Two very different worlds.
Strangers.
But strangers they will be no longer, when at a wedding their paths cross.
They have chemistry, need and desire for one another. The pull to great to ignore.
So they allow their need to take them on a night of ultimate sin and all things deliciously naughty, never to see each other again.
Fast forward three months from Abe and Kalista’s steamy one nighter…They are about to be reunited in the unlikeliest of circumstances.
With a threat to Kailsta’s life, protection is paramount. The only option is to have somebody by her side, twenty four seven, to watch her every move and to make sure that the monsters that keep lurking in the shadows are caught before Kalista becomes their victim.
And yes you guessed it….Abe is the newly designated bodyguard to Kailsta.
What happens when Abe and Kalista are reunited after three long months?
Is Abe still drawn to Kalista?
How will Kalista react when she knows it’s Abe that will be looking over her shoulder?
Can Abe keep Kalista safe?
Who wants her gone?
What secrets will be revealed?
And who will ultimately lose their life?
Guys what can I say other than this is a brilliant read. From beginning to end I couldn’t put it down. Fast paced, full of suspense, naughty, highly emotional and all things cheeky, Worth The Risk is a read that I was honored to read. The characters in this novel are nothing short of amazing. Abe and Kalista are simply explosive, but also be on the look out for Zak and Ellie, Michael and Will, Daniel and Alec just to name a few. These guys will have you completely hooked.
Absolute perfection.
5 stars.
What a story!
Worth The Risk is the latest book from JB Heller, and I think it’s her best yet.
Abe is the epitome of tall, dark and handsome with a side of badass, and then Kalista catches his attention at his brother’s wedding. Kalista is beautiful, passionate and has an incredible strength even when faced with terrors that no one deserves to endure.
This story has everything you could ask for – fantastic characters, a kickass storyline, hot, steamy scenes. I seriously loved this story, it held me captive from the very beginning and didn’t release its hold until the final words. A definite must read of 2018.
I am so glad I finally too the time to read a book by this author. I have seen her blurbs and read the reviews but had no idea what I was in for until I started. This book was all of it. Your emotions are tried and true by each of the characters and these two take the cake. They were never supposed to see each other again. But this is more than a love story there is action and intrigue and a massive web of deceit and lies it’s crazy. I loved every bit of it and plan on continuing with this author who I am enjoying for the first time.
My Rating:
4.5
Favorite Quotes:
I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t appreciate me doing the sprinkler in bed. You’d come out the other side with some serious injuries.
His words are lost on me as I contemplate murdering him with a pair of my Jimmy Choos displayed on the shelf behind him. But I decide against it. I don’t want to hurt my Jimmys.
I get it, but you have to stop looking at me the way you do. It’s distracting and frankly, I’ve already had to replace the batteries in my vibrator this week. At this rate, I’ll need to buy shares in Duracell.
‘So, how old are you exactly? Am I sleeping with an older man?’ She gasps theatrically. ‘Are you a cradle snatcher, Mr. Jamieson?’
My Review:
Oh these sexy, dirty talking, and bossy alpha men of JB Heller, they are such a kick to read. I revel in her naughty irreverent humor and amusing observations. The characters engage in amusing and creatively filthy banter and name calling that I’ve never heard before. I had a harder time appreciating the character of Kalista as she was initially prickly, cold, snobbish, over-indulged, and had a hair-trigger temper with a tendency for over-reaction. But my favorite of this story was the feisty pixie known as Ellie, she intrigued me and I’m hoping Ms. Heller will be indulging us with her story soon.
The story was believable and sad that it was. It’s terrible to think any family can treat their kids this way and yet it happens. Abe and his family is one we all want as our own. Loved “Little Red”
This story is worth your time, read it!
The first time Kalista saw Abe, she almost swallowed her tongue. They had an understanding, one night only. Now she needs him, and he will not let her walk away this time. There is a target on her back, and her dad hired Abe to be her security. She learned this when she saw him sitting on the other side of her father’s desk as she was informed about her full-security detail. – Kalista’s father was all business and not warm toward her. She, in turn, was cold toward most people. Abe brought out her fun side, and she learned to enjoy life. He was a little arrogant for me, but he was good to and for her. Abe and his brothers were loyal and accepting. I enjoyed he twist in the book. This is a good read.
Worth the Risk is an easy, quick read. The plot is good with a few twists thrown in, there’s scope for a few spin offs with other characters introduced. The two MC’s have good chemistry, a bit more back story for both would have made them even more real. The action scenes were well written and felt like you were in the thick of it too. Overall, a good book.
The language was so bad in this, I stopped reading it!
Cute read and great characters
I am looking forward to worth the wait..
