Ellie and Lincoln were everything I’d been waiting for! Ellie has been through some stuff her family doesn’t know about. She is ready to take her power back, and her plan involves Lincoln and a masquerade ball.

Meanwhile, Lincoln knows that Ellie is off limits as his brother's young sister-in-law. One masked night between them changes their lives forever, and Lincoln is in for a pleasant shock when he finds out who his mystery woman is…and that his mystery woman is having their baby.

I was happy to see these two together! Lincoln has always been a part of Ellie’s support system, so it’s no surprise how much she trusted him. It was fun seeing Lincoln go from eternal bachelor status to being obsessed with his masked companion. If you love age gap, secret pregnancy and hidden identity, The Risk of Falling is worth the read!
