Calculated Risk
Contemporary Black Romance | Friends to Lovers | Workplace Romance
Former Federal Inmate Desmond Taylor is too busy keeping Atlanta’s at-risk teens off the streets to entertain distractions. When Financial Analyst Imani Thatcher steps into his youth center, she brings a temptation he can’t ignore.
Imani’s high-powered financial career used to be her anchor. Now, after betrayal shatters the life she worked so hard for, she’s restless, reckless, and more than a little intrigued by the man with a dark past.
Soon, Desmond and Imani are caught in a pull neither expected. Desire this dangerous could bring consequences… love is always a calculated risk.
