Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From bestselling author Amy Andrews comes a new single–title romance about putting pleasure before business, and the risks we all need to take when we find someone worth risking everything for. Samantha Evans's life is going to hell. Not only has she rage–quit her beloved, high–powered job, but she is suddenly afflicted by hormones, free time, and an unavoidable, unignorable, undeniably gorgeous irritant in the form of Nick Hawke, her extreme sports star neighbour, who has come home to take over the reins of his grandmother's second–hand bookshop. Sam needs something to keep her from begging for her old job back until she's good and sure her boss understands how wrong he was, and taking a low–risk, low–stress job helping Nick at the bookstore might be just the thing. After all, it's not like Nick is the right guy to help her with her hormones. He'll just be fun to look at while she searches for the one. Nick has six months to get over an injury before Everest and a big, fat contract beckon. That means no sports, no danger and, above all else, no risks. It means playing it safe. And Nick Hawke doesn't do safe. So he's going to need something to stave off the boredom while selling books he doesn't read to people who wouldn't know a carabineer from a crochet hook. What could be safer than hiring a cranky, unemployed accountant to help run the bookstore? Sam is efficient and methodical and messing up her neat, post–it note world could be a fun way to pass the time.... Risky Business mixes the classic romance of Philadelphia Story, the humour and wit of When Harry Met Sally, and a strong, contemporary Australian setting to create a delightful, irresistible, utterly satisfying treat of a novel.
