Risk Ltd. is a two-book romantic suspense series by Elizabeth Lowell. The Ruby (1994) introduces the security firm setting, and Shadow and Silk (1997) continues it.
The Ruby centers on a rare gem and the danger that comes with it, mixing romance with a thriller plot involving the security professionals at Risk Ltd. Shadow and Silk shifts to the world of rare fabrics and antiquities, with another pair of characters from the firm.
Elizabeth Lowell has written dozens of romantic suspense novels, and the Risk Ltd. books represent her interest in pairing high-stakes adventure with love stories. Both books work as standalones since they feature different lead characters, but reading them in order gives more background on the firm itself.
