What Are The Risks

What Are The Risks is the third installment in Madi Leigh's Phil-U series, a standalone best-friends-to-lovers college football romance. Ryker Richardson is closing out his final college season with the NFL Draft looming, his focus entirely on football until his best friend Ruby Wilson's life falls apart.

Ruby had expected her first year as a nurse to be the start of the future she'd mapped out with her boyfriend, but his betrayal derails those plans. As she processes the fallout, she turns to Ryker — the constant in her life — and the two find their long friendship pulled toward something more, complicated by the risk of losing what they already have if it doesn't work out.

Like the earlier Phil-U books, this is a spicy, explicit-heat college romance that can be read as a standalone, following Leigh's recurring cast of student-athletes navigating love alongside the pressures of their final year of college.
