not going to write a lot but let me tell you this was way better a second time, it helps that i already know the characters and i already love them but truly loved this book, they were toxic and so stubborn and hot and sad at the same time but so so good!!! maddoc the man that he is i love he, the way he got so close to tate is so cute and fallon also my badass mom love her to pieces!! their story was such a ride even tho i already knew it, still couldn't stop reading and i just wanted more and more!! and the jax scenes??? I WILL EAT ANYTHING WITH HIM ANYTIME ALWAYS i love that man so much god!
now obviously im going to rr falling away so oops! these characters mean the world, truly fall away series is definitely a top one idc!!!

Fallon and Madoc were a freaking ride! Kinda more crazy than Jared and Tate but I really liked them and I think Fallon is definitely one of my fave characters in this series!
At first I thought they were a little bit toxic to each other, always trying to make the other one hurt and never really telling each other the whole truth but god they did fight it all and against the freaking whole world to be together and they did it! They got together and it was actually really beautiful and a little bit heartbreaking but just perfect for them! I loved how they kinda pulled a Naley and got married young and fuck the world, it was so them and I loved it!
I preferred this book over the first one but reading Jared and Tate from Madoc or Fallon's pov was actually so damn cute and heartwarming!! Madoc and Tate's friendship in this book meant the world to me and also how Fallon finally got the family she truly deserved and people who cared and loved her by her side through it all! Their development was a little bit more powerful than Jared and Tate's but both couples were so worth it and so good!
Loved seeing more of Jaxon here and I was so ready for hits book since he responded to Liam ehehe I bet his book will be my favorite even tho K.C kinda annoyed me in the first book but I have faith in her!!
“I got it a couple of years ago,” I told her. “I never forgot you. I never stopped loving you.”
“That’s because we’re unstoppable.”
