Falling Away

Fall Away, Book 3

De: Penelope Douglas

Narrado por: Nelson Hobbs, Abby Craden

K. C. Carter has always followed the rules - until she makes a mistake that leaves her the talk of her college campus and brings her carefully arranged life crashing to a halt. Now she's stuck in her small hometown for the summer so she can complete her court-ordered community service. To make matters worse, trouble is living right next door.

Jaxon Trent is the worst kind of temptation and exactly what K. C. was supposed to stay away from in high school. But he never forgot her. She was the one girl who wouldn't give him the time of day and the only one ever to say no. Fate has brought K. C. back into his life - except what he thought was a great twist of luck turns out to be too close for comfort.

As they grow closer, he discovers that convincing K. C. to get out from under her mother's shadow is hard, but revealing the darkest parts of his soul is nearly impossible.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[The] chemistry is downright explosive." ( Publishers Weekly)

Two Broken Hearts make a whole...

Ok, so I will be so honest, I was SOOO afraid to read this one. I wasn't sure that my heart could take it...you know...when you so want to read a book but are so scared to actually see what happens...that was me...I have the ebook, I have a paperback and yet....never opened until I said, Stop being a Baby and listen to it, for some reason (and I have the complete series in audio), I am better able to listen that read this series...who knows ....anyway...SO SO SO SO SO happy that I finally took the leap because I freaking LOVED FALLING AWAY...I don't think Penelope could have done a better job at making you completely break, just to be put back together again....and then break you again...my heart still hurts.

KC/Juliet's story was so heartbreaking...who the hell would have known after meeting her in BULLY that this was what was hiding underneath. (Best part...the butter knife....HAHAHAHA).

Jaxon...well, well, well.....that little dirty talker was "nasty" and I mean more in a sense of Janet Jackson...rather than "Nasty" like mean...even though her had his moments when he needed a good one over the knee.

Penelope blew me away again...and I can't WAIT for the next in the series...let's see Jared and Tate get into some trouble!!

Not the best in series.

While this is certainly the steamiest if the series- I think this story had major issues. Besides being the clearly most unhealthy of all the relationships, the Juliette storyline just seemed uncharacteristic of a woman who was trying to make better choices for herself. At this point in the series- I’m also finding it ridiculous that these kids have SO MUCH MONEY and houses GALORE. Hahaha. Obviously these are dirty stories but the believability is getting too out there.
The narration is fine. The male narrator is a little easier to take. The female narrator grumbles a lot of the lines very dramatically and it’s a little over the top. Thank god her voice is generally pleasant.

Love

Jax and Juliet loved them so much. So much to unload, so much to process but it was worth the character development

Love this series!! Jax is VERY hot!!

If you ask me, this was the BEST of the series!! Jax and Julia (KC) are the perfect couple and Jax is sooo hot, the hottest one of all!! I love how his whispery passion and sex just oozes out his every pore; out of all the men in this series, Jax was unexpectedly the best to me, even though he had a sordid past. I love how he broke Julia out of her insecurities and set her free. He’s definitely my flavor! 😍😜❤️ Enjoy! xo

sooo hot!!!

What made the experience of listening to Falling Away the most enjoyable?

I love this author. These books have great story lines and are super hot. I listen every chance I get and the story keeps my heart pounding. All the books in this series have been a great listen. The author does such a good job of laying out the the story with all the details. It makes my imagination run wild. I definitely look forward to more books by Penelope!!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Falling Away?

The part where Jax teachers kc to drive a stick shift muscle car is so descriptive and hot . I loved the whole heart pounding chapter.

Awesome backstory, as well as how it led Jax into his future

I really liked hearing Jax’s side of the story, and how he felt about other people in his life how he viewed himself and the world. Juliet and her diary reading was monumental. I would definitely recommend this book, it’s kind of like they’re all puzzle pieces into a family puzzle.

I hated Kacee prior to this book

I don’t know if my love for Jax carried over into a love for Kacee but it’s awesome to see her finally apologize for the things she did wrong in high school.

Great series

I really enjoyed this series. I think the author probably could have done a little Better on this book. She saved the excitement for the end and it felt a bit hurried and unfinished to me, but worth the credit .

Loved it!

This is a younger series with some of the harder to deal with issues people face today. But the writing is amazing and true to the characters. the narrators was fabulous. Well worth the Credit/money.

Dark, but good

This was pretty good, I liked the chemistry and tension between Jax and Juliet. Jax is much darker than Jared or Madoc, he's been through a lot and the flashbacks were really sad. I still prefer Madoc and Fallon, but this had a lot of sexy times which I greatly enjoyed! Lol. Jax and Juliet are like the tragic couple who have both been through terrible things and need each other to help heal and move forward. Jax is a jerk a lot of the time, he pushes Juliet away, but inside he's like this scared kid who thinks no one can love him. The narrators were really good and matched the characters well.
This was heavy in a lot of places, but a good addition to the series!
