MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n Shelley Shepard Gray is one of the authors of Amish fiction who manages to keep her books both fresh and exciting. “His Risk” features Cal, a formerly Amish man working undercover in a gun-running gang who sees no way out but death. When he returns home to be with his brother through some serious surgery he meets Alice, the sweet Amish girl house sitting for her brother across the street. Although both know it is a terrible idea, the two of them cannot seem to avoid becoming friends (or more) as they continue to spend time together. All Cal can think of is that he could be bringing danger to everyone he cares about.<\/p>\n This may be one of my favorites of this author’s Amish novels. “His Risk” includes excellent character development with several points of view that help to flesh out the story. The narrative is filled with plenty of drama and suspense laced with several surprises along the way.\u00a0 I’m not 100% sure that I entirely liked how the gang situation was resolved but Cal’s explanation to Alice’s friend Irene made perfect sense to me.<\/p>\n This book contained excellent examples of how often people are not exactly what they seem and even “bad” people may be motivated by wounds from their life. An example of one laying down his life for another was an unexpected event that really touched me.<\/p>\n I would highly recommend this book to all who love Amish fiction and even to those who believe they don’t like it. “His Risk” is definitely worth taking the time to read.<\/p>\n I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book provided by Litfuse Publicity. A favorable review was not required. All views expressed are my own.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n An undercover English DEA agent will do anything to protect the Amish girl he loves.<\/strong><\/p>\n Calvin Fisher left the Amish community at fourteen and never looked back. Only his brother\u2019s illness can bring him back to Hart County. Now, as Calvin works to make amends, he meets Alice, a local nursery school teacher, and falls hard for her. But he has a secret that could threaten the happiness he\u2019s finally found.<\/p>\n Alice shouldn\u2019t like\u2014or want\u2014Calvin. He\u2019s English, has a questionable past, and an even more questionable job. Still, she can\u2019t help being intrigued. Though Calvin assures Alice that he\u2019s worthy of her, she\u2019s torn between surrendering to her growing feelings and steering clear of him.<\/p>\n When a sudden surge of criminal activity alarms the community and even targets Alice, Calvin fears that his double life has put everyone he loves at risk. As for Alice, she can\u2019t help but wonder if the brave and honorable man she\u2019s lost her heart to is far more dangerous than she could ever imagine.<\/p>\n Learn more and purchase a copy.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/strong><\/p>\n Find out more about Shelley at http:\/\/www.shelleyshepardgray.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n GIVEAWAY:<\/strong><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\" "\\"divider2\\"")
