Publisher's summary

Aro

Hawken Trent. So polite. So sweet. Such an upstanding young man. A virgin, too, I hear. He never gets naughty with a girl. Probably because Jesus told him not to. And now here he is, trying to be the hero by protecting another girl from me.

He calls me a bully. Irrational. Unreasonable. A criminal. He can call me anything he wants, I’ve heard worse. And he can try to stand between me and my money, but he’s never had to fight for food. That rich, clean, school boy doesn’t have what it takes.

Hawke

I surprised her. You should’ve seen her face.

Just because I don’t have a record, honey, doesn’t mean I’m clean. It just means I’m better at not getting caught. That is until I realize I might’ve actually gone too far this time.

She’s there. I’m there. The scene of the crime. It’s dark. The police show up. We have no choice. We run. Down High Street, into Quinn’s bake shop, and I pull her through the entrance to the old speakeasy that everyone forgot was here decades ago.

The door locks, the cops circle the building, never knowing we’re right here, and I’m hidden in plain sight, indefinitely, with someone’s who’s awful. Mean. Rough. Dirty. A thief. A delinquent.

Until one night, lost in all of these rooms together, I don’t see any of those things anymore. She’s smart. Daring. Soft. Hot… Everything’s changing. It’s this place. It does something to people.

We have a silly urban legend in Shelburne Falls about mirrors. They’re a gateway. Don’t lean back into them. But we came through front first. I don’t care what the county records say. This was never a speakeasy. It’s Carnival Tower.

Fall Boys is a standalone new adult romance suitable for listeners eighteen plus. Listening to the Falls Away series first is helpful but not necessary.

Amazing

Another stunning book by Penelope. I was not blown away at the beginning, but as the story went on I was obsessed. This book made me cry and i am not a Cryer. SO EXCITED FOR THE REST OF THE SERIES!!!!!!😁😁😁

Amazing story

I’m a big Penelope Douglas fan, but what i liked the most about the story was that I think the hero in the story was actually very likable. The heroine was the real hero and i love how she was written and portrayed. the letter at the end was so relatable and as someone who has similar life experiences it was moving to read.

Just wow!!

Penelope douglas cant do no wrong!!! wow this book it just a start to an amazing series, cant wait for the rest of the books♥️

Love story

Really enjoyed the story - thank you for writing it. Becoming a huge Penelope Douglas fan.

The end letter

First book I’ve listened to of yours and I can’t wait to read/listen to more. That end letter made me cry and you’re an amazing person and author thank you. We all need a heroin

Love the suspense

Another great book with complex characters. The letter from the author at the end made me tear up a little.

Hot

The chemistry and wonder in the book is amazing. Absolutely beautiful story that showcased the struggles of an older sibling trying to take care of her brother and sister.

Young adult themes

I like the author. She has a relatable, easy style of writing. This story follows high school kids who are mostly way more mature than typical teens. It’s a stretch to be believable but it’s certainly entertaining.
The narrators are engaging and really brought this story to life.

Amazing as always

I have been waiting for the rest of these books forever and this one did not disappoint.

Love it

Fell inlove with Hawke and Aro!
This was amazing I can’t wait to read the rest
