I was so excited when Jasinda announced this book. It was so unexpected and I was so upset that I couldn't read it right away do to a crazy real life that monopolized this book's release week. I really wanted to read this because I have loved every single Jasinda Wilder book that I have ever read and Falling Under was no different. Out of all the books in the Falling Series, it's in the top 3. (Did you see what I did there? diplomacy, baby! I just can't pick my favorite.)
This book may be viewed as a stand alone BUT to get the full experience, the full emotional pull, I do recommend at least reading the first book in the series, Falling Into You.
"You can't learn about love without getting hurt."
I seriously bawled my eyes out with the first two books of the series but not with this one. But that doesn't mean it's not as good. It just tugged at different emotions than the other two. And after reading so many books lately that exhausted my Kleenex supply, I was so ready for different.
Though, I do have to say, this scene really got to me:
"I don't want to hurt you, Kylie."
"You already did."
I groan. "You really don't know what you're asking for, with a guy like me."
"Shouldn't I get to be the judge of that?"
"Yeah, maybe. But I've got a choice too," I say.
"And you choose to reject me."
:-(
I loved the relationship between Oz and Kylie: the not-so-worthy bad boy and the beautiful girl who fell in love with him. I loved the parallels of their relationship with Nell and Colt's. I will say here that I was just a little disappointed that I didn't get Nell's POV. I always connected with her, but I will have to say it was refreshing to have all in the POV of the males, especially when one of those males was Colt.
Falling Under by Jasinda Wilder
