Publisher's summary

I wasn't always in love with Colton Calloway; I was in love with his younger brother, Kyle, first. Kyle was my first one true love, my first in every way. Then, one stormy August night, he died, and the person I was died with him.

Colton didn't teach me how to live. He didn't heal the pain. He didn't make it okay. He taught me how to hurt, how to not be okay, and, eventually, how to let go.

Nell Hawthorne is in love with her life-long best friend, Kyle Calloway. Their young love is invincible and life is full of promise; then one night Kyle dies suddenly in a tragic accident and Nell is forever changed. She meets Kyle's older brother, Colton, for the first time at the funeral. They both struggle to move on with life as best they can. Years later, they meet again in New York City, and Colton realizes that Nell has never really gotten over Kyle's death. She seems to be harboring a deeply rooted pain, a heavy weight of guilt, and regret. He knows he shouldn't get involved, but he can't help himself. Trust doesn't come easily for either of them, and they both have demons. Together, they learn the purpose of pain and the meaning of healing, and the importance of forgiveness.

Beyond amazing!

Falling Into you was such a beautifully written tragic book; however, from the tragedy comes strength, healing and yes learning to love again. This book was 2 love stories in one. I can't begin to express the emotions and feelings I had when listening to this book, even after having read it before. Get ready to ugly cry, but it is oh so worth it! The narrators made this book and the song at the end by Jasinda Wilder just gave me chills and blew me away. I highly recommend this book.

I was a bit like HUMMMM at first then... OH my

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

It's based out of my home town and has some swagger and suspense and ART to it... A little bit of everything...

What did you like best about this story?

Once we got to the male narration and it became an ADULT story I was touched and pulled in by the changes and drama and unseen ... Well read it ... LOL I don't want to give it away..

Have you listened to any of Gabriel Vaughan and Piper Goodeve ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

no, but i love the Gabriel Vaughan narration and would seek it out... Piper was just okay the normal OH my voice like in GREY.. Vaughan adds something nice to this story...

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I was stuck home and had surgery so it listen all the way... But really once you get to the second half your like.... OH my... And He did WHAT??

A heart wrenching gem

Where does Falling into You rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is the first review I write since using Audible. I have listened to many books but this has to be the best book I have come across.

The author had created very real and empathetic characters with depth and beauty.
The narrator did a very good job in bringing the story to life.

What did you like best about this story?

The characters and writing style is real and beautiful.

What about Gabriel Vaughan and Piper Goodeve ’s performance did you like?

Very moving.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes!

Any additional comments?

A must read, this book triumph over all other romance novel I have ever read. Worth the credit.

Beautiful, Beautiful, Wrenching, Beautiful...

I thought this was going to be another trendy book...but this story gave me the smackdown...hard! I never saw it coming. I couldn't put it down. I haven't cried this hard in a long time. But the beauty of the story is also extremely uplifting. I urge you to listen to this book. I know I'm going to check out everything Jasinda has done. I thought this was just the way it should go...and I thought events were realistic. The narrators had it perfect, I am listening to it again. I look forward to the next book that is coming out soon....and I hope that Jasinda provides us some continuity in the next story... I like it when the characters are involved throughout the series...it makes it more believable and enjoyable. My only complaint (and it is a small one) is that the ending was rather abrupt and I hope that Jasinda will continue Nell and Colt's story in books to come. I WANT MORE!!!!

Narrated and written beautifully, you'll have to listen to it to appreciate it!

Loved the beginning...

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The book just about lost me once it skipped ahead in time. N.Y. Part of story became irritating.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

That Nell fell for Kyle's brother. So much potential there that wasn't explored.

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

Yeah. The narration was pretty good.

Do you think Falling into You needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No, but I know there is one.

Emotional...not your typical feel good love story!

What made the experience of listening to Falling into You the most enjoyable?

I would not say it was an enjoyable listen. I would say however it was a very different take on love and a HEA.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Falling into You?

I think it was the continuous way Colton pursues Nell.

Which character – as performed by Gabriel Vaughan and Piper Goodeve – was your favorite?

Colton. He has such a low opinion of himself, but despite it all he has over come a lot in life. I believe that Gabriel Vaughan was able to reflect the conflict of Colton.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes. I cannot stress enough the emotional draw of this book. It is not a "feel good" love story. This story is one filled with sadness, acceptance, adversity and guilt.

Any additional comments?

I was emotionally washed out after listening to this book. That being said I believe it to be worth a credit definitely if you can handle an atypical love story.

A Sweet but forgetable story

This book was good, although I can't say I will want to re-read it or even remember it in a few weeks. The way the author describes the main character's pain is very realistic, but the circumstances of the romance seem very contrived.

Great story line!

Intriguing, emotional, heart wrenching love story. The character are well developed. You can almost feel their love and pain. This is the first time I listened to a novel of this author. I made great choice. Narration was just as good. I highly recommend this book. I can't to listen to the rest of the series.

Falling into you.

This book was a little heavy for me. There was no humor or lightness. Broken is how the characters were described. I am glad the characters found love but it was depressing. I know everyone handles loss in different ways.

Great read!

loved it. The story is great. Will definitely make you cry, but totally worth it.
