Dangerous Love is the latest romantic suspense thriller from USA Today and Wall Street Journal best-selling author Riley Edwards. New series, new steamy, hot heroes. Welcome to Takeback.

One night. No names. Two hearts forever changed.

There wasn’t a lot that surprised me. My years in the Navy taught me a lot, my years hunting human traffickers taught me the rest. Meeting a beautiful woman in a bar and spending the night with her should’ve been a blip on my radar. Instead, I spent years trying to forget her. In the middle of a rescue operation, fate dropped her back into my life, but there was a twist—she wasn’t alone.

I lived and breathed romance. I was a true believer in love at first sight and happily ever afters. Then, I found myself staring at a sexy stranger across a crowded bar, fell in love, and spent six hours living out my wildest fantasies. But I ran when I learned love at first sight stole your breath and left you afraid of a broken heart.

Brooklyn Saunders has a secret to tell. One that will change everything for Rhode. One that will bind them together, or separate them forever.

Rhode Daley has one shot at building the family he always wanted. That is, until his life implodes and his worst nightmare comes true. Can he repair what time has broken and save their futures?

Takeback is an off-the-books special-operations task force composed of military contractors and US marshals. Their mission is simple—to save those who have been taken.

Epic Love Story

WOW! The HEA Riley Edwards audiobook fans have been waiting for. Dangerous Love is book one in the Takeback series and if there’s one takeaway from the first book, it’s that this series is going to wreck me! What started as a one-night stand became a life-changing love. If you love a gut-wrenching, second-chance, surprise kid romance with twists and turns, grab this amazing series starter now! I cannot wait to hear where this series takes us.

Samantha Brentmoor is marvelous as the bighearted, beguiling, courageous mama bear, Brooklyn. Samantha narrating a character who is a romance audiobook narrator was delightful; the scene where she rehearses the male POV was everything. I loved all of her characterizations in this love story. Joe Arden is in top form as Rhode; his raw emotion will rip your heart out, but don’t worry he’ll piece it back together with all the swoony devotion. If you’re a fan of Joe’s kid voices, get this in your ears now because Remington is one of his very best! Samantha and Joe are two top-tier narrators and they brought their A+ performances to the booth to bring this long-awaited HEA to life. Dangerous Love was a banger audiobook and an aural treat.

Very good story and performance!!

This book is so good! I love the characters with their loyalty, strength, and brains, and their camaraderie. There is suspense, action, humor, and romance. The writing is so good and reveals the depth in the characters and some great truths about life. This is another winner! The performance is very good!!!!

Get ready for all the emotions! Amazing!

Grab your Kleenex, and get ready to laugh - cry - and experience ALL the emotions. I literally couple turn this one off - stayed up all night listening because I just NEEDED to hear the end! And now I'm bummed it's over - but excited it's a series and now I'm in the middle of Book 2. This series is going to give me renewed hope in humanity that fairy tail true love is out there, and depressing realizing these Book Boyfriends are what every woman wants - and only exist in the pages because well, a women wrote the perfect man! lol It's so worth the credit! I'd have paid full price for it!

Love from the start

This was so well written and made you fall in love with the characters from the beginning. Can’t wait to read more

Brilliant start

A brilliant start to a new series. I liked Brooklyn and Rhode and then add a kid and I’m in love. I also listened to the audiobook narrated by Joe Arden and Samantha Brentmoor. It was the first time I’ve ever heard them narrate a book. They did great and I’m anxious to listen to them again.

A great start to a whole new series!

Rhode and Brooklyn hooked up at a bar one night, no strings, no names, no nothing but one single night. Brooklyn left the next morning with a single kiss and a surprise.
After 6 years neither forgot about the other one and Rhode desperately wanted to look for her but had no way to even begin, little did he know she was so close all this time.
While on a case, he finds her at the crime scene and is just as shocked as she was. Rhode isn’t letting her go this time, not without a fight.
Rhode walked into the bookstore and stopped dead in his tracks. He looked at Remington and saw himself.
Brooklyn didn’t want Rhode to find out this way that they had a child from that night years ago but nothing she can do now but explain it all to him.
I love that Rhode and Brooklyn was able to move forward even with so many years between them gone.

An engaging story that will keep you on your toes

An engaging story that will keep you on you toes as two strangers who fell hard but believed they were destined to live separate lives, find fate intervening in the most dramatic of ways. With insurmountable danger lurking, Rhode must pull out all the stops to save his future. Pulse-pounding suspense scenes, love and passion, and sweet kid moments collide to make the perfect blend as Brooklyn and Rhode fight for their HEA. Awesome narration by Samantha Brentmoor and Joe Arden help bring the characters to life.

Those and Brooklyn

This is a story of love that withstands time and circumstances. I truly felt the emotions from the characters as Joe Arden and Samantha Brentmoor narrated. They really brought the characters to life. An awesome read. Definitely 5 stars!

Romance, Suspense and Engaging Story

What does it take to move me to rate a book with 5 stars? First, for an audible book it has to have great narration. Check. Second, the story has to have relatable characters I can invest in. Check. Love strong female leads like in this book. She is someone I would look forward to seeing in daily life. Her issues in the story are happenstance rather than self induced idiocracy, and she rises to meet them head on with intelligence and with help from her love interest. We get to ride along as their relationship deepens through mutual respect. We are cheering for them as they work out complicated roadblocks like grown ass adults. It's lovely and refreshing. The story includes well placed intimate encounters that are steamy and satisfying. Third, there has to be an intriguing context that keeps me on the edge of my seat wondering what will happen next. Check. In the end, everything is wrapped up nicely and there is a tantalizing lead into the next book in the series. This book was great; it was time and money well spent. I absolutely have to listen to the next book in the series.

Beautiful narration!!!!

Loved this book! The story line was amazing! The characters were great! Definitely going to continue the series!!!
