A Risk on Forever

When Matthias Phillips imagined the new caretaker for his mother with ALS, the last thing he had in mind was a gorgeous twenty-something who didn’t look like she had a day of experience in the field. However, his mother has always been stubborn, and despite his objections, she’s insistent: it’s Adelaide Samson she wants him to hire.

After losing her job, Adelaide needs a new gig to continue supporting her family, even if that means working for overprotective and rude Matthias. Once she earns his trust, though, she gets to see a whole other side of him—a funny, sweet, and sensitive side. A side she might start to like.

Feelings take hold, but soon, Adelaide must choose between helping Helen with a secret task or being honest with Matthias. Caught between the woman who feels like a second mother and the man she’s falling for, Adelaide must navigate the murky waters of a job that has started to feel like home.

Goodreads Review

I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH. There were all the emotions. We got spice and so much angst in it also. I cried, laughed, blushed, and smiled so hard during this book... There's no amount of words that can express the emotions and feelings I felt in this book. I can't wait for you guys to read this book.

Goodreads Review

A Risk On Forever was a phenomenal book. I fell in love with all the characters and felt like I needed to savour this book as long as possible. I loved to see the writers evolution and growth of her writing throughout the book, and I was so amazed at how food these characters were, and how absorbed in the story I was. I miss so much Helen, Louis, Addy, and Matt and wish I could have read even more of their story! I wish this book was longer because I loved all of the characters so much and just wanted more.

Goodreads Review

Read this if you want to feel something. This was such a fast read I’m almost sad it was over so fast. If you enjoyed books like Me before You this is right up your ally. I really loved the relationships that the author built not just with the main love interests but those around them too, it really showed them fully- you know so much more about their backstories and fall for them even more. Everything with Helen made me feel every emotion possible, she is a treasure.

Goodreads Review

I am so moved by Perkins' effusive and elegant writing style that instantly transports me into the complicated but loving dynamic between Adelaide, Matthias and his mother, Helen. These are three characters that have so much love to give, but are holding themselves back, all in a way to protect the ones they care about most. This story is a love story, for sure, but it is also one that speaks of sacrificing for those you care most deeply about. I love the way I was able to laugh and cry all within the span of a few chapters and how real the struggles these characters faced felt. This is definitely a book that will have you cycling through every single human emotion, but in the best ways possible. One of my best reads for 2021!

This book was so refreshing - I literally could not put it down. It was such a great story line and you quickly found yourself emerged in the book. I just couldn't wait to see what would happen next.

N.S. Perkins gave depth to the characters; she made them unique, charismatic and overall endearing. I truly appreciated the read and cannot wait to see what else she publishes.
