A review by oczerniecka
Just Fall by Nina Sadowsky

2.0

I must say that the story is interesting, and has a potential, I didn’t enjoyed how it is presented. We have two people who fall in love, man without a past to tell about to his loved one and a woman with a past she’s willing to share with him, but not all of the things that happened. The way Rob – the main male character – is presented, my mind immediately went to the description of Christian Gray from infamous 50 Shades of Gray. The story how he was in love with her – Ellie, how this is the thing that he should not allow himself to do, how he cannot let someone in. His childhood that left a permanent scar on his soul. But then he does and the love changes him! Revolutionary! But of course the deep secret he has is much more than an inclination to a very kinky sex. This comparison to Christian Gray might be also result of a sex scenes that are quite often in the book (in most mystery books there is a no sex scenes or a very scare description of them).

I feel like parts of the story were unnecessary, the part about missing children I really don’t get. The whole story that is shown throughout the book at the end must serve a little importance to the mystery. Disappointing.

All in all, the story really has potential but I would love to read it presented in another way, with characters that are just… more. I cannot put my finger on what this “more” may exactly means.
