Reckless Hope

By: Nyssa Kathryn

Narrated by: Avery Caris, Jason Clarke

Every man she’s ever known has hurt her…until him.

Life hasn’t been kind to Harper Rain. In fact, so far, it’s only proven the one person she can rely on is herself. But when all her efforts to escape her family fail, she takes the last desperate option—run.

With little more than a few dollars to her name, she ends up in the small town of Misty Peak. The first person she meets is a tall mountain of a man…whose kindness is only outshone by his captivating smile.

As a former Delta Forces soldier, the urge to protect others is in Cody Walker’s genes. So when a woman walks into his bar in the middle of a storm—with only a backpack and a black eye—ignoring her isn’t an option.

Trust doesn’t come easy to Harper, so Cody starts by giving her a job. The more he gets to know the enigmatic woman, the more he’s convinced that slowly working his way behind her shields is well worth the effort.

Unfortunately for them both, time is a luxury they can’t afford. Harper's pursuer is catching up, and if they can’t have her, no one can…least of all Cody.

Reckless Hope is a small-town, stand-alone romantic suspense in the Reckless series by bestselling author Nyssa Kathryn.

Great Beginning to a great series!!!!

First book in the series is about Cody and Harper. This book had a great feeling revolving around a small town, with close knit family of brothers. I loved how the author was able to incorporate all of the brother's stories and keep you on the edge of your seat. Also, the narration is on point and done differently, both narrators interact with each other's characters and it works quite well.

Good story

Liked this story so much that I’m continuing the series. Narrators are awesome! Recommend checking this one out.

Good listen, narrators are good too

I swear this girl should win an award for most kidnappings/bad guy interactions. Like why advertise they're all super buff protectors when they can't secure.. literally anything. He loves to tell her she's his, she's safe bleh bleh bleh but the man can't do any of that lol Maybe I'm used to mafia guys that ACTUALLY secure places with cameras and competency.

The story was good overall, he does all the right things (aside from keeping someone obviously targeted safe) The nickname 30 seconds after meeting was cheesy and cringe every time it was used.

If a book doesn't frustrate you somewhere it's not doing its job. As much sass as I have toward this book, it feeds the damsel in distress category. Sappy sweet HEA

a good read

it's a pretty good read. wish it was longer more indepth but a good read. I love series so hope the rest are as good

A great start to a new series

The narrators were perfection. I truly feel that Jason Clarke can do no wrong haha. Avery Caris is amazing. I love her voice. Having both Jason and Avery in this story was the best combo!

• Thoughts:
Nyssa! Nyssa, Nyssa, Nyssa. She did it again, another great start to what I know will be a great series. We met Cody in Liam's story. So we know Cody and His brothers have a protective streak that is a mile long. Cody does not disappoint he is fierce and protective of Harper. He does not question his attraction to her either. It was instant and I love it. We get some twists and turns in this story. And just like many if Nyssa 's books. I had this book read in a few days. I always end her books feeling happy and good. So excited for the rest of this series in Mystic Peak.

Great start to this series!

Reckless Hope is book #1 in the new Reckless series. Nyssa Kathryn knows exactly how to tug on your heartstrings, make you laugh with the family banter, binge to the end to find out who did it,then steam up the sheets with the spice! Harper Rain is running from her sh!tshow of a life and lands at Cody Walker's bar...with a black eye. At first sight, he's pronounced himself her protector and is doing all he can to show her not every man is out to hurt her. But Cody's past comes back to threaten them and Harper's past is hot on her heels. Cody has a bunch of single brothers and a sister, so I KNOW we're in for some great stories! Don't miss out on the start of this fabulous family!!

The narration was a shining point for sure. Jason Clarke and Avery Caris (enough said??) brought the big guns for this one. Growly, broody Cody and Harper were voice to perfection by this duo. 5 binge-worthy stars!!

good but she's done better

I love nyssa and this book was great. my only complaint is the spice in this book was not on the same level as her previous books. it was like an after thought shoved in there I think 2x

Action packed

Wow! This story did not stop from the second it started. So much happening. Held my interest the whole time. Loved it. Loved the characters. Excited to read more in the series.

Great story!

I was hooked from the beginning The whole book is written in the third person, which took a bit of getting used to. I didn't see the twists coming. I can't wait for the next in the series.

Ex Military Golden Retriever Boyfriend

Jason Clark is forever swooning me, this was a great duet narration by him and Avery.
Story line was also great! Gotta love when the man falls first and has that macho “touch her and you die” energy while also being a golden retriever of a guy.
Checked all the boxes!
