KAT
This isn’t a love story…
It’s a hate one.

Because after Ethan Riske came into my life faster than a sexy dark blond bullet nine years ago, I realized that hate was all there could ever be between us. 


The troubled small town prince loved me.
He lusted for me.
And then he left…stranding me in the dust of the Southern spit of land where we’d met.

I never expected to see him again.
I never expected that he (and all his trouble) would find me. 

And I absolutely never, never expected that one day he’d try to so hard to become the man I call “Boss.”

This is our story.
I warned you that love wasn’t a part of it…

If only I remembered to heed that warning, too. 


AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is a full-length, stand alone, second chance/enemies to lovers romance in the suspense-filled Hating Him series. This book contains surprising twists, humor and heat. Happy Reading!

    I loved parts 1 and 2, but part 3 seemed so rushed! I will happily read the next book in this series but I hope the suspense keeps through the book’s entirety and not just 2/3. Loved most of the characters and the mystery!

    Riske and Revenge is a tale of love lost and second chances, misunderstandings and betrayals. Through flashbacks, we get glimpses into the past, which weave seamlessly with the present as a mystery begins to unfold. This book will keep you guessing until the end when everything falls into place and the twisted truth is finally revealed. A great slow burn contemporary hot and suspenseful romance I don't hesitate to recommend.

    This book drew me in from the beginning and had me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. Ethan Riske and Kat Lexington have a past that is complicated and full of old emotions. Now, years later they are competitors in the publishing world. When they meet face to face after years of being apart, you can literally feel the sparks and chemistry flying off the pages but the past and old hurts are keeping them from moving forward. Add in a person out for revenge and both of them being victims of arson, you have one heck of a story on your hands. This story had my heart pounding from page to page. Just when I thought I knew what was happening, Natalie threw a curve ball and I couldn't believe the shocking twist. I loved every moment of this book and the ending had me swooning. Ethan and Kat's story will keep you intrigued from start to finish. Don't miss out on this romantic and suspenseful read.

    Hard to follow in a few places or felt like plot points were lacking, but maybe that was just me (reading way to late at night). Overall a good enjoyable read.

    I wanted to like this book. I actually got to the final chapter and gave up. Convoluted, hard to follow, characters just didn't grab me.

    I love the back and forth between past and present. Lots of mystery and sexual tension. Ethan and Kay never talked and explained anything. Everything was so vague. I expected a big explanation of why Ethan originally left, why Kat had been an angry teenager, why Laney took such drastic measures, what were the revenges taking place... I was left wanting.

    They knew each other whilst they were teenagers. They were good friends and more until her heart was broken when he moved away with no warning. Roll on a decade. Kat has had think of him as the enemy to keep herself sane but she met him again, spent the the night and ran. Good story with a strong stodyline.

    Whenever I read a Natalie E. Wrye book, I am always swept into her world that is brilliant, exciting and thrilling. Her books just completely leaves me so satisfied every time I read them. There is just something truly beautiful about them that I sometimes I cannot away. I am always transfixed on them. I am always captured by them. Riske and Revenge was another book that totally left me with a smile on my face. That book was amazing to read. It was charming. It was endearing. It was edgy. It was a book that brought me in to a storyline so wonderful that I got goosebumps on my skin just by reading it. Riske and Revenge was definitely one of my favourite books from Natalie E. Wrye and he best from her.

    When I read a book, there are always things I look for, engaging, interesting and well thought out storyline, swoon worthy characters and fiery hot scenes. And Riske and Revenge truly delivered on that. Man oh man, this book was freaking drool worthy and tantalizing to the max. I love every single part of Riske and Revenge. The drama. The romance. The feelings. The fire. Everything about it was simply magnificent that I devoured this book. Heart pumping wicked. Pulsing. Fascinating. Humorous. Riske and Revenge was a second chance contemporary romance filled with an enemies to lovers to story that was beyond drop dead gorgeous. Natalie E. Wrye wrote a fantastic story with amazing writing. Her writing is so simple yet it just pulls you in. I freaking adore it.

    Riske and Revenge introduced me to Ethan Riske and Kat Lexington, a couple with immense chemistry so fun and off the charts perfect. I love these two so much. There was hate. There was love. There was panty melting dialogues between that set the book on fire. Of all the characters of Natalie E. Wrye, I loved Ethan and Kat more. Kat was fiery, sassy and a loyalty to her business. Ethan was cocky, alpha, funny and damn sexy that I wanted to do wild things to him. Natalie E. Wrye definitely brought so much life and colour to Ethan and Kat.

    Riske and Revenge will give you and enjoyable and slow burn ride into stratosphere. If you are fan of second chance romance with a little enemies to lovers action then this book is for you.

    Ok, so i read hating the best man first and thought there was part of the story missing. I didn't realise it was part of a series and now i understand some of the back story. In saying that, i don't know if this story gave enough attention to the romance side or the plot. I felt like it breezed over the top of both. I didn't hate the story but i wasn't enthralled either.

    I liked this book, but three quarters of the way in, I felt like I missed a chapter as I progressed and something had happened in the story I didn't know and I didn't think the characters knew but all of a sudden wham, big storyline going on and everyone knew about it..... I kept going back to check but still couldn't find where I had missed it. Also it didn't really explain in detail what broke them up, just bits and pieces. So up until then it was a fantastic read.
