A Risk Worth Taking had everything it needed to be an amazin book, but it just didn't quite make it. Griffin was a little too much of everything. He was too convinced he knew who was trying to kill him and why that it practically screamed that he was wrong about something. His devotion to his deceased wife and son was at first very sweet, but Lady Anne dwells on it far too much at one point in the book. The think I really liked about Grif was that he made the tough call to stop to drinking. Laura Landon did a fantastic job showing what a mental and physical struggle this could be for someone.

Lady Anne was incredibly stiff. Her swearing off of any help (even though she really needed it) was enough to make me want to scream at times. Her devotion to her sister was touching, but I sort of wish we had seen a little more of her throughout the book.

Unfortunately, I had a good chunk of the mystery figured out long before I should have which ruined the big reveal for me. If it had been just a little more hidden it would have been an amazing twist to really make this book work. It was just a tad too predictable to be make it out of the 3 rating range.
