High Reward picks up right where High Risk left off. With Ryan faced with the ultimate choice. And I won’t lie - I was a tad nervous. For Ryan. For Gray. For all of them. His relationship with Gray is Earth altering. And he knows that - yet what is most important? A promise made under duress or love.
Love, right?
Right....
In High Reward we watch as Ryan and Gray both have to come to terms with choices they have made as well as choices others have made for them. It’s explosive as the pair try and ...more

High Reward is the conclusion to the Point Of No return Duet, continuing on from where book 1 left us. I have been eagerly awaiting this follow up. After enjoying a romance novel based in a setting I haven't come across before though High Risk (book 1), it made the story feel fresh and captured my interest.
So we are back with Ryan and Gray and this book gets down and deep on the emotional front, which is what I loved about this book. High Risk set the scene, let us get to know our Hero and hero ...more

I don’t even know where to start with this book. Or this duet of books since they fit seamlessly together and should always be read back to back. It’s hard to rave about all the things I loved without giving away spoilers.
This story continues to follow Ryan Tyler, a famous astronaut battling his inner demons after the death of his best friend, and Gray Barrett an aspiring flight psychologist tasked with getting him back on the strait and narrow. From the beginning of High Risk when Ty was deali ...more

High Reward continues where High Risk left us, with that happy for now. And, spoiler alert! That changes and quite drastically.
Beautiful, angst-ridden, and emotional. This book will have you feeling ALL the emotions and swearing all the curse words, and swooning all the swoons. It is everything I could have hoped for and then some. One of the best books of 2018.
It’s no secret that I love broken characters. The more they behave a-holeish the more I love them, and Ryan Tyler fits that bill perfect ...more

I've read many of Brenna Aubrey's books and LOVE them. I was immediately pulled into Mia and Adam's story so when I heard about this spin-off I couldn't wait to read it. Brenna Aubrey did not disappoint. She has this great way of combining romance, with drama, heartache, betrayal, determination, chemistry in spades with characters who are not your typical hero and heroine. Gray and Ryan pulled me in from the get go and had me feeling as invested in them as I did with Adam and Mia. There were def

The author absolutely delivered on the conclusion to Gray and Ryan's story!
"I love listening to your heart beat when it's so quiet it's the only thing I can hear."
Ryan is wrestling with his conscience, his guilt, and an ultimatum that was issued to him. Gray is everything he needs. She brings light and happiness to his life, but he questions if he really deserves her.
"There was something in his eyes, a flicker of emotion that speared me right through the heart and wrapped around my lungs, making ...more

Stunningly beautiful conclusion to this two part series.
Gray Barrett has finally decided to follow her damaged heart and fall in love but can she keep it from being emotionally torn apart by the former playboy, Commander Ryan Tyler. When Ryan is faced with a hard-hitting decision, he must decide whether to follow his heart or his head, but will his self-worth stand in the way of making the right choice.
Gray is such a sweet girl and all the way through this book I was cheering her corner. When ...more

This is the exciting conclusion to the Point Of No Return duet. You do need to read High Risk (book 1) first. You'll be glad you did and that this book is available immediately when you do.
This picks up where astronaut Ryan "Ty" Tyler and Gray Barrett, a flight psychologist, left off in book one. Ryan is a reformed playboy and out-of-control risk taker in many forms. Gray is helping him with his issues, not professionally, but very personally, while trying not to seem like she is helping. Their ...more

yes, let go, move on, live without guilty, cherish the moment we have, the time n the life.
I found myself reading late into the night (actually early morning) as I just could not put down this awesome book. Brenna Aubrey has outdone her self again. You will most certainly want to read High Risk before jumping in to High Rewards to read this sizzle story of Ryan Tyler and Gray Barrett. It will bring you laughter and tears, tension and compassion. But most importantly you will enjoy this 5 star read.
This is the conclusion to High Risk and this book is fraught with so many ups and downs. Man, my emotions were all over the place reading this. I couldn't get through it fast enough and wanted to delay it, just to savour all that happens. My heart was still hurting for Ryan and his survivors guilt.
Mind you, my feelings, they were mainly aimed at Ryan. I really wanted to smack him But, also, I really wanted him to see himself they way we see him and Gray. He's is so stubborn but it's also works t ...more

An absolutely amazing ending to a truly fantastic duet!! I couldn't read this book fast enough. It has EVERY you need in a steamy romantic story with a strong female lead, and a guy worth having her. I couldn't put this book down, in fact, I'm thinking about opening the first book and reading them both all over again!! A definite MUST READ!! This story is unforgettable.
Part two in the amazing series of a troubled astronaut and the woman who is trying to save him. As with all Brenna Aubrey’s books, you get characters who are full of flaws, broken in so many ways but are willing to fight through for love. What I love about her work is the way that she develops the story and characters. There are so many incredible layers in her stories and there is always these critical

read and reviewed this book voluntarily.
Such a great ending to Ryan and Gary's story.
Ryan is a broken man, he breaks Grays heart but she won't let him see that, Gray realizes she can't fix him. When Ryan starts to heal will Gray take the risk her heart again with Ryan or will she guard herself? Is the Reward worth the risk?

Warning do not start this book right before bed!
I didn’t sleep; I read. I was falling asleep at my desk the next day, but this book was worth it!
I even daydreamed of hearing Commander Tyler speaking Russian to me.
My stomach was in knots, and I had to get to the end to find out what was going to happen.
Don’t miss this amazing new series! I fell in love with a whole new set of characters and want more.

Loved it! There was still drama,but it didn't piss me off so that means it wasn't too much :D I would love to read about the secondary characters more though:)

This was just the right mixture of suspense and romance.
* facepalms * Why do I keep reading books where women stay with idiotic men?
Brenna’s stories get better and better. This book takesup just as High Risk ended.
Ryan has chosen his career over Gray and all he has created is utter misery for himself and for Gray. To Gray it makes no sense why he is acting this way but she is so smart and intuitive it does not take her long to figure out why Ryan has done the unthinkable.
Ryan quickly goes back to his old habits. Gray’s seemingly indifference makes Ryan crazy and he begins to suspect she really never had feelings for him.

Reward- a thing given in recognition of one's service, effort, or achievement.
High Reward implies a greater benefit but at what cost? Ryan Tyler has avoided many things. He has embraced a half life of sorts. His determination is fueled by fear and guilt. He maybe risking it all but for what?
She is his next breath. She is his last breath. But somewhere along the way, everything else creeps in and steals that breath. It's up Ryan to decide how to fix it.

This book was highly anticipated by me after reading High Risk and there was a serious break between the two- I could not wait to get my hands on it.
High Reward picks up right where we left off with High Risk. I was just as hook with this book as I was with High Risk, and Brenna Aubrey had my emotions all over the place just like with book one. There was numerous times that I teared up and wanted to break down into sobs.

This is the follow up book to High Risk, and they must be read in order. Ryan has just been given an ultimatum, choose Gray, the love of his life, or his career as an astronaut and the jobs of many people as Gray's father threatens to pull the funding for the space program if Ryan doesn't put a stop to his relationship with Gray. This book is full of emotions and I will admit that on more than one occasion I wanted to bang Gray and Ryan's heads together. To make me feel this invested, this shows

High Reward picks up beautifully from where High Risk left off, and concludes this duet in a smooth and effortless manner. The story continues its seamless flow and the author’s writing is precise, informative and most of all, entertaining.

I couldn't wait for this book to be released because I loved Ryan and Gray in High Risk and High Reward is a very enjoyable, well written, conclusion to their journey! Since High Risk ended on somewhat of a cliffhanger, I was pleased that I didn't have to wait a year for the conclusion. The chemistry between these two is still off the charts but I felt this second book in this duet was more emotional and heartbreaking and heartwarming than the first book. You get to know the depth of these chara

Wow part 2 is ultimately amazing!
We continue with Ryan and Grey's story and I love how beautifully flawed their relationship is.
When Ryan is given an awful ultimatumn and he has to choose between his career as a astronaut or his love for Gray it's hard and is heart and his head is a total shed with it all!
With threats in their way you still can't help but have a feel good factor about the couple and hope that they can make it work together.

i am still reading it I love Gray but somehow Ryan seems unworthy of her. Everyone has weaknesses but the guy seems all over the place, I am falling less and less in love with him but well will update after I finish.
Finished reading , wow amazing relatable characters. Well researched and filled with humour and interesting real life facts. Can't say Ryan is one of my favourite romantic heroes. I prefer the more resolute and steadfast type but in the end he came through. Again I loved Gray she was ...more

Ty (Ryan) and Gray are back in High Reward. The chemistry is still hot and heavy. Ty is working on his PTSD from the accident that took his best friend. You feel for Ty and everything/everyone that is against him. I love the fight in Gray and the way she stands up for herself. They are perfect together. Once you read this and the first book you will understand why. Such an amazing read. I couldn't put this one down.
We pick the story up from the ending of High Risk and I knew this was going to hurt but I couldn't wait to get started.
Ryan is in turmoil does he move forward with Gray or keep a promise. I felt for both characters both are shackled by the past and by the expectations of others. I knew something was building but the author throws a grenade sized curveball into the mix which I didn't see coming and I wasn't happy at all.
I really enjoyed this duet everything about it worked.
