Personal Development

A firsthand recounting of a wide-open relationship, told with unflinching candor from the male perspective.

Adam had spent most of his life pursuing adventure—climbing some of the world’s steepest mountains, snowboarding dangerous backcountry terrain, and BASE jumping off of cliffs.

Jane was a sex educator with a PhD in psychology, a female sexuality empowerment activist—and a self-described slut, who rejected monogamy and the societal norms of what a sexually well-behaved woman should be.

No stranger to extreme living and taking risks, Adam thought he could handle whatever his relationship with Jane threw at him. But the very public, open-as-fuck relationship was more than his strong male persona could bear. Rather than walk away and protect his ego, Adam applied the lessons he had learned about fear while free soloing high up on rock faces and free diving a hundred feet below the surface of the sea to navigate an even more terrifying situation—the woman he loved having lots of sex with lots of other men.

Neither a celebration of non-monogamy nor a cautionary tale, Seek the Risk is a firsthand account of what one extreme sports competitor went through after falling in love with the “wrong girl.” His journey forced him to reevaluate his ideals about relationships, female sexuality, and his own masculinity. It was also the wildest ride of his life.

- “A roller-coaster ride of wild sex, crazy adventures, and exploration of the self. This is the kind of book I thought I was going to read when I picked up Fifty Shades of Grey.”

- “An incredibly compelling story that I couldn’t put down. It’s also the most honest portrayal of non-monogamy I have ever read.”

- “Absolutely amazing. This will now be required reading for present and future boyfriends.”
