Risk Capital: A Dark Billionaire-Nanny Romance

by Milana Jacks

The empire was secure. Until love becomes his most dangerous investment.

Alessio is a man who knows what he wants… And that’s me.
Yes, we shared a night together.
Yes, he lit me up like the Eiffel Tower.
But that’s where it was supposed to end.
Now, I have to get close to him again.
Because someone’s holding my little brother hostage,
and forcing me be a governess for Alessio’s nephew.
This job is supposed to give me access to Alessio’s secrets.
Not his heart.
When the truth comes out, I don’t know who will end me first.
The people threatening my family,
or the man I’ve come to love.

*** this is a dark romantic between a morally grey billionaire MMC and a nanny trapped in his dangerous world. It contains dark themes.

Almost better than her fantasy

Wow, so good. I loved shark bait and I love this one too. I'm hard out to pick which is better.

Quite the game of cat and mouse…with a side of passion. Alessio is just as intense and controlling in all aspects of his life. He is also a deadly billionaire, and I don’t mean he is deadly because he has people for that, because he does, but he himself is also very deadly. He doesn’t need to have anyone else, he was in the military and knows how to take care of business. She’s a happy go lucky writer for a travel magazine that meets him one night, and gives into their chemistry. They share a night together, and as soon as she sneaks out she’s kidnapped and made to spy on him and his family in his own house…oh yeah it gets all kinds of messy….messy, messy, messy.

Safe read with a couple that was bringing the passion. A good fast paced storyline with plenty of what the moments. We get to see our favorites from book one, including the lollipop theif, and gained some new favorites like his adorable nephew. I also loved, loved the shout out for The Unseelie King and I…so much fun. An epilogue and a hea.

I don't usually read Billionaire romances

But I very much enjoyed Ms. Jack's foray into the genre. The MMC, while an intense, powerful man, was emotionally mature and didn't doubt the female main characters'love for him (at least not for long). It was such a breath of fresh air. All of the characters were charming, their interactions and motivations read as authentic and understandable. The spice is "chef's kiss". This is top shelf escapist literature, just like the equally charming Shark Bait

Worth the Risk ~ This is a Voluntary Advanced Reader Copy review of Risk Capital. Read Shark Bait first. It will set the stage of the why and the subsequent path this story took. I enjoyed the way the story started. I loved the subtle reference to another book. Loved all the descriptions and details that led this story on a very intense and specific journey, full circle to where it started. Loved their epilogue.

Love it!

I think this is my favorite book of hers yet! I loved the characters and the storyline, although I wanted to yell at Lake several times! Good stuff! Can’t wait to see what’s next!

Another googy

Good read starts out a little slow. Lake seems to passive at first then pick up later. All together a good read.

[Cristi · Rating 3 out of 5]

I wasn't intrigued enough to continue reading this book.

[Patricia Stigleman · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great read

Action packed intrigue with romance. Great character development. Happy ending guaranteed. Family loyalty and found family. Spicy romance for romance book lovers.

[JazzRizz · Rating 3 out of 5]

I enjoyed this one, but it didn't hit like Shark Bait did. Alessio is a much more complex character, so this book made sense ... sort of.

Lake is in a tough spot, and her choices are made in fear.

There's a HEA, but it wasn't as satisfying as Miro & Troy's book.
