Carnal Risk: Volume 1 (Club Altura Romance)

Product Information

Together, the chemistry between Garrett and Selby is explosive. There weren't any lulls in this story. Non-stop action between the suspense angle (was Evan's death an accident?), the dare-devil antics, and steamy romance kept me on the edge of my seat and wanting more. For once, I've read and enjoyed a billionaire romance that broke the mold! I fell in love with Kym Grosso's PNR story and have been recommending her books for a while. The first book in her new contemporary romance series, Club Altera, is shaping up to be just as good. Anyone looking for a author who can multitask in several genres, needs to be reading Ms. Grosso. Now I've reached the hard part in a series, waiting for the next book! Garrett Emerson knows hard work. He's built his company to what it is today. While he works hard, he plays even harder. He's an adrenaline junkie. He loves doing those things that make his heart race. He loves the rush, the feeling that he's alive. When his best friend, Evan, falls to his death while sky diving Garrett knows that with Evan's experience this was no accident. Well that was certainly a good book. Carnal Risk was a exciting read. The beginning chapter had my jaw on the floor and all the exciting adventures pretty much kept it there. Selby Reynolds, a high profile technology specialist, reluctantly accepts an engagement at Emerson Industries. Discovering secrets and uncovering clues to a murder, she’s swept into Garrett's dangerous but seductive life of luxury. Captivated by the world renowned capitalist and adventurer, she’s convinced he could crush her heart. As he pushes her sexual limits and their erotic play intensifies, Selby finds it impossible to resist the one man who turns her darkest fantasies into a reality.

When you are a daredevil and an adrenalin junkie the risk is never enough, even if death is a distinct possibility! For billionaire entrepreneur Garrett Emerson the more dangerous the risk, the better! In this new series by author Kym Grosso, we are introduced to this panty dropping, danger seeking, alpha male and the woman that raises his blood pressure alone with other body parts. Carnal Risk, book one in the Club Altura Romance series will trigger the readers adrenalin flow, as well. Once again this amazing author constructs a world of intrigue and romance that captures her readers and traps them within the story she has created. Selby Reynolds is a sought after technology specialist. Not sure of the next assignment she accepts a position at Emerson Industries. Selby discoveries things she shouldn’t and gets caught up in dangerous secrets she wasn’t supposed to know. Garrett is pulling her into places she hasn’t ever dreamed of being. When Selby becomes a target Garrett is the only one she can trust but the games have just begun. Garrett is somewhat too cynical for me. He is upset about his friend, which is understandable, but in the end, I just thought he was boorish and a spoiled brat. While I knew, going in, that he was going to be a character who was used to getting his way, the manner in which he defied Lars didn't really make it seem like he was a very good friend. And, while I can understand that there are sensitive things that his company works with, his friend Lars' company is similar, so all of the secrecy throughout the book on the projects seemed too hyper-vigilant. Well if the cover doesn't pull you in then the fantastic story will because, as always, Kym Grosso has delivered yet another awesome book and this one, as the title would suggest, is one hot listen..... but it's so so much more too. Billionaire Garrett is loveable, sexy, charismatic and all Alpha - he's CEO of a company that has Top Secret files but it primarily caters for people who want the 'extreme' adrenaline high lifestyle whether it's skydiving, mountain climbing, surfing or sex. And Garrett works hard but plays harder and he loves his life and the 'highs' it brings..... that is until tragedy strikes leaving him devastated.The suspense is great and I loved that side of the storyline. However, while the characters were all clearly passionate about “high risk” activities, I actually didn’t see them doing all that much of them except for jumping out of a plane a few times and surfing (is surfing high risk?). They also didn’t actually work that much, but I’ll forgive that because, serial killer. Note, my only high risk behavior while reading this book was almost spilling water on my kindle. Now THAT would have been a major buzzkill. This book was just very all over the place for me. If it wasn't for the good smut I feel like I wouldn't have been as interested. Garrett Emerson is the CEO of Emerson Enterprises, a multi-million dollar company. He loves all types of extreme sports. It’s not just a hobby for him, it’s a way of life. When his best friend & CTO of his company, Evan Tredioux, dies in a skydiving accident he is convinced to bring in Selby Reynolds, an executive recruiter & information systems expert, to find Evan’s replacement. I found the plot rather ridiculous. The first meeting at the bar? Yeah, no way. I don't buy the reason for Lars why he introduced them in this setting. I just rolled my eyes.

And to top it all of I really didn't connect with the MC. I felt like I was watching a really, really bad movie, with bad actors, very cheesy and unoriginal lines and an unbelievable plot.CARNAL RISK is an erotic tale of friendship, betrayal, money and greed. There are moments of action, suspense, mystery and intrigue shrouded in a secret world of extreme sports and pleasure seeking enthusiasts. Our introduction to Club Altura is exotic and alluring with an aura of power and sex; membership is exclusive; the thrill of the chase a must; a fear of flying is not an option.
