Risky Little Affair by Rachael Brownell is the third book in the Lake State University series. This was one of my anticipated releases for 2022 and it did not disappoint. Risky Little Affair delivered a charming tale, which I eagerly devoured.
This installment delivers Micah and Alexis story. I awaited Micah’s story with eager anticipation after his merciless teasing of his brothers, who had been bitten by the love bug. He swore up and down that such a fate would never reach him. However, he underestimated the powerful force of love. It was fun seeing the cocky womanizer taken down by the very thing he claimed would not befall him.
Alexis is not looking for a permanent relationship. Her focus is on her studies and keeping her scholarship. Failure was not an option, as returning to an unhealthy home environment. She could not afford distractions of any form. However, Micah will become her biggest distraction when she discovered that one night of passion would not be enough.
Risky Little Affair was such an endearing read. It lacked all the unnecessary angst that one may associate with college romances. It was a joy getting to Micah and Alexis. To be honest, I never expected the level of maturity displayed by Micah, given his reputation. But man, he proved me wrong.
The driving force behind Alexis’ need to study is heartbreaking. She developed insecurities as a result, which is to be expected. She had a hard time accepting that Micah wanted to be with her. Her apprehensions arose because of the difference in their social status. An unwarranted fear as the difference in their social status did not matter to Micah. Her determination, resilience and dedication were the things that drew him to her. The princess of one-night stands had her well erected walls torn down by the prince of love them and leave them.
Free of drama and angst, but with lots of steamy moments, Ricky Little Affair hooked me from the start. A sweet story with endearing characters whom I couldn’t get enough of. Alexis and Micah brought out the best in each other, making them a wonderful couple.
Overall, a delightful read. Risky Little Affair is a story about overcoming one’s past and finding love when it's least expected. Perfect for fans of new adult romance
