Fall with Me by Jennifer L. Armentrout

4.0

Review originally published at Love Literature Art and Reason

Fall With Me was a cute contemporary romance with a quirky main character you can't help but love. It was a second chance romance, which I typically enjoy because it takes the whole meet, lock eyes, and cue the insta-lust issue out of romance. I love love-at-first-sight, but in NA and adult romance, it's usually too much and too lusty. Roxy and Reece knew each other, had a one night stand eleven months earlier, and Roxy had pretty much been avoiding him every since because she felt pretty strongly about him and he seemed to be all regretful.

Fall With Me had light characters and a nice romance, but it also contained some serious things. Roxy's best friend was in a long term care facility after he was violently attacked as a result of his sexual orientation. Roxy also received threats and was being messed with in odd ways, which added a little bit of mystery/crime to the plot.

I enjoyed the book a lot, as I typically do with all of the author's books. There's something about the way she writes that makes it so much fun to read and I'm able to finish her books quickly. The mystery was easy to figure out and I would have been disappointed had that been the main plot, but it wasn't, so I can ignore the fact that was obvious.

I liked watching Roxy grow, see how her relationship with Reece would form, and see her realize that not all things are black and white. The hatred she had for her friend's attacker was counterproductive and I liked seeing her sort of realize that and be able to rise above it.

I definitely recommend the book to any fans of light contemporary New Adult romance. She's definitely by go to author for when I'm in the mood for it.
