Tough as nails heroine? Check. Sexy Southern love interest? Check. STEAMY HOT SEXY TIMES? Double check.
Audrey has brought two unlikely romantic leads together and made them click in a way that was delightful to read. I have to say, I'm particularly biased when it comes to my male leads. There's just something inherently sexy about a Southern gentlemen and Hank pretty much embodies that type of man. He is totally swoon-worthy. I love that Aspen is a snarky, get what she wants kind of lady.
Great debut. Great author. You should check it out!

Angel Falling was a really cute read. Yes, it is an instant super attraction turns to love story, but I really enjoyed it. Angel/Pen and Hank are so cute together. It was a really fun read.
Hank has always found Aspen attractive. He is a small town Texas cowboy but is in New York City working on a project his construction company won the bid on. He is working on an addition to a fancy building downtown and every day he sees Aspen walking into work, all prim and proper and put together. He would love to have her for a night, but doesn't think it would be possible to get someone like her. He doesn't really know who she is or anything, just that he is attracted to her.
Aspen is the daughter of some wealthy socialites, but she never really fit in there. She has worked hard for everything she has, and it has paid off handsomely. She is very, very rich. She doesn't have many people in her life that she trusts or cares about, only her sister London and her bff/assistant Ollie. Really without Ollie she would be lost. She counts on him for a lot. He is always there for her, but they are just friends. Ollie is gay and happily living with his boyfriend who he is madly in love with. He was an odd one as I can't picture him in my head. I don't know why, but he kept slipping through my grasp. He was still fun.
One morning when Aspen is heading to work Hank sees that some pipes are about to fall. If they do they will surely kill Aspen so he jumps into action and saves her life. He is hurt in the ordeal, but it is worth it to save his angel in white. And that is where the story start. When Hank gets injured and Aspen feels so thankful to him. She wants to help him and make sure everything he needs to fully recover is taken care of. For Hank he doesn't much care about all that, he just wants a chance to get to know Aspen and spend some time with her.
The two of them have this instant, intense attraction. Pen is usually not one to be so spontaneous or so attracted to someone so quickly or so strongly, but she is. And Hank has had his eye on her for a while so when this opportunity arises he wants to take advantage of it. He wants to get to know his Angel. Oh, they were cute! I am glad it wasn't they were instantly in love. Instead it was they instantly had an attraction, couldn't keep their hands off each other, and that turned into more. Phew, it was hot. Hank, even with a bum shoulder, was on fire. Oh, I loved it.
Now the main problem between the two of them is that Pen keeps thinking how he will go back to Texas and she will be left all alone again. She tries not to fall for Hank, but it is hard. He is just so wonderful and perfect for her. The two of them don't talk a lot about their feelings or what will happen when he is all better and finished with his job there. They don't talk about the future which causes some problems. Hank early on realizes he is all in and wants to be with Aspen, but he is trying to wait until she gets a chance to catch up. He wants to make sure she is on the same page before he reveals his feelings. He doesn't realize she is already there.
There are a few bumps in the road to happiness for these two, but it is worth it in the end. Oh, that last part of the story was heartbreaking. I just wanted these two to work everything out and live happily ever after. I will say one small thing that I didn't understand - the epilogue. I didn't understand why Aspen hesitated on one thing, or why she thought something she found out would be a potential deal breaker. I mean with everything that happened in the story it was obvious that Hank wouldn't care, would be happy with everything, so I didn't quite understand Aspen's worries. It wasn't a big deal, but just one small thing. Overall this was a wonderful read and I look forward to reading more from this author.

I absolutely loved this book, it had everything you look for in a good erotic romantic read. The story kept my attention right from the start and held it to the end. I had a really hard time putting this book down once I started reading it. The characters and their feelings were so intense and the chemistry was intense. I loved them all, from the main characters to the secondary ones.
Aspen is a high society executive and very successful business woman and she is beautiful in her looks and in her soul. Hank is one “Hunk” of a man, he is a true gentleman when it comes to Aspen and he is completely and totally smitten with her. She is his Angel! Their chemistry is off the charts and they light up the pages when they come together. The passion and chemistry between the two of them was intense and made for some very steamy scenes, they are scorching hot as a couple and the love they have for each other is intense.
I also loved the secondary characters in this book, they were well developed into the story line and I can’t wait to read more about them in the next book. I loved Apsen’s sister London and I especially fell in love with Oliver, he was one of my favorite characters aside from Aspen and Hank. Everyone needs an Oliver in their lives.
I would absolutely recommend this book, it had it all! I found myself being pulled into a fantastic story that took me on a roller coaster ride of intense and conflicting emotions. If you love sexy hot romance with a some action, humor and great sex, then this is a book you should definitely read. It was well written, the plot was well thought out and as a reader I kept turning the pages to see what happened next.

Would have loved more plot momentum. I want to give this author a second chance because i generally like everything except the snail pace of story building.

This book has been on my TBR forever, for years, but finally I decided to put it up front on my TBR and read it and boy I regret not reading it sooner. Really enjoyed this book and am definitely going to read the other books in the series.

Ich weiß nicht was ich schreiben soll.. ab Seite 50 hatten die beiden auf gefühlt jeder Seite Sex oder haben irgendwie anders miteinander rumgemacht. Die Chemie zwischen den beiden hat meiner Meinung nach überhaupt nicht gepasst. Ich bin froh das ich fertig bin mit dem Buch. Keine ahnung ob ich die anderen zwei Bücher ebenfalls lesen werde. Tendenz eher nein.
