Reasons to Risk (3000 Reasons #2)

A sizzling, heartwarming romance about second chances, unexpected connections, forgiveness, and learning to trust when it matters most.

Andrea Waller is determined to forget her past failures and wring every last drop of excitement from her vacation in Southern California. But when fate moves her in across the hall from Marine Greer DeAngelo—the one-night stand she’s determined to disdain but can’t seem to forget—trading barbs becomes her new favorite thrill. And it’s a safer bet than indulging their fiery chemistry.

When Greer learns the truth about their night together, he’s determined to make it right. But Andrea’s time in California is limited and she’s looking to chase thrills in her off time, not second chances.

Greer’s remade himself in San Diego, far from his New York roots. His family may still view him as the screw up he was as teen, but the military taught him loyalty in a way they never did. But with the feisty ICU nurse challenging him at every turn, he begins questioning his reliable no-relationship rule. She’s a temptation—and a sexy bet becomes the perfect distraction from the one family gathering he can’t avoid.

What starts as fun with practical winnings soon blurs the line between competitor and friend. As their time together ticks away, can two people who’ve sworn off love take a risk on each other—and maybe even find something more?
