In "The Risk", a dramatic short story about the life of Madison Stanley, a high school graduate with a promising future finds himself tempted to explore his sexuality and spends time finding quick dates over the Internet. He quickly learns what a one night stand is and finds himself full of lust and pain. Madison loses himself over empty promises from men and gets into the club scene in New York. He runs into a high school friend name Dorian who tries to save him from this downward spiral. Madison becomes so intoxicated with depression he ends up losing several promising opportunities. Dorian ends up being Madison's new roommate and attempts to help him overcome his addiction to drinking.

Total Knock Out of the Park

Would you consider the audio edition of The Risk to be better than the print version?

Yes it is. In the audio book, the narrator brings the book to life. It's like it was a completely different book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Risk?

The turn of events about 70 percent through the book. I don't want to give the details because I don't want to spoil the book for others.

Have you listened to any of Steve Ryan’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, i heard the book Foolish and Detention Jeremy. This one is comparable. I love Steve Ryan's work. I'm going to look for some other audiobooks he narrated to buy because I just love the way he narrates.

If you could rename The Risk, what would you call it?

That's a hard one. I don't think I would rename it. The name is so perfect.

Any additional comments?

This audiobook deserves a million stars.
