Risking Her Heart

By: Lindsey Pennington

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When the past won’t let go, can new love be enough to heal?

After losing her wife, award-winning photographer Georgia Quinn has nothing left but grief and a camera she no longer cares to use. When her mother is diagnosed with cancer, Georgia returns to her family's lake house in Minnesota—the same house she left behind when her family rejected her for loving the wrong person.

Now, back in a town full of whispered judgments and distant family, Georgia keeps her head down. Her days are filled with doctor’s appointments, strained silences, and long walks on the beach with her dog—until she runs into Olivia Janes, her childhood crush and the daughter of her mom’s best friend.

Liv is nothing like the girl Georgia once knew. Divorced, grounded, and trying to rebuild a life of her own, Liv becomes a surprising source of comfort. What starts as friendship soon stirs something neither woman expected. But Georgia’s heart is still in pieces, and Liv deserves more than someone who’s just surviving.

As old wounds reopen and the past refuses to stay buried, Georgia must decide:
Is she ready to risk everything—including her heart—for a second chance at love?

Risking Her Heart is a poignant, slow-burn romance about grief, forgiveness, and the healing power of unexpected love.

Great story

Wish there were less literary corrections but there weren’t many. The story itself grabbed my attention but could’ve been condensed into less chapters.
