Blurb:

“Lady, I want you to stop seducing my son! Hell, what are you, thirty-two, thirty-four, Rob is seventeen..there’s room for a whole other person!”

Thus in one of Nashville’s poshest restaurants began a stream of threats against Stephanie Brandt along with a heavy hand ‘mangling’ her shoulder, followed by a bill shoved into the middle of her quiche by a big man wearing work boots, denim and a T-shirt with an obscene foreign word printed on it.

Until Quintin Ward stormed into her life with his threats and accusations, Stevie had not known his son Rob even existed., let alone was her mail room clerk.

When she’s finally able to convince Quintin that she has no designs on his son, they embark on a campaign to squelch Rob’s amorous ideas and fantasy love-life with his boss. But their very calculated risk backfires!

Review:

Quinton is a concerned parent, and Stevie is an upstanding businesswoman. When Quinton threatens all sorts of havoc on her if she doesn’t stop seducing his son, all Stevie can think of is how sexy his butt is while he’s walking away.

Calculate Risk is a fun story about two consenting adults and an overzealous teenage boy. While the story was entertaining, there were quite a few typos and grammatical errors, especially towards the end.  There was also quite a bit of head-hopping.  Despite these things, the story was enjoyable and the characters were very likable.

  1. Thanks so much for the review…always appreciated!

    Sorry you got an older beta copy that was accidently posted…all typos have been fixed (my fav: her fist covered his fish! LOL) and the editing was done by Simon/Schuster….hmmmm…

    Has for ‘head jumping’ – ahhh…. mixed POV…been my trademark since 1980!

    But always appreciate any review!

  2. I love Elaine Chase’s dialogue. She’s a master, and Calculated Risk is a good example of her books.
