The Falling Series

Nick Bailey is a ruined man.  Once an NFL star, he thought he had it all. Fame. Money. Respect. After losing everything to injury and scandal, he fell from his pedestal, becoming the most hated man in town. Picking up the pieces of a shattered life is harder than it looks, but Nick is tired of being the brooding loner. He wants to move on. Jenna Moore was born to perform. She loves the high she gets from being on stage, singing in front of a crowd—even if it's just at the local bar on weekends. Everyone assumes she wants the rock 'n roll dream—the stardom, the crowds of adoring fans. But as much as she loves to sing, fame won't fill the hole in her heart. Nick has watched Jenna for months, desperate to love her. But the ghosts of his past still haunt him. Could a woman like her ever want a man like him?

KYLE:  I have it all. I'm everything a man dreams of being; a first-round NBA draft pick, an alpha beast in the bedroom, and I've got swagger for days. People either hate me or love me. Sometimes both. I'm the best at what I do in the arena AND in the bedroom.  And sure, I have a past. And that's where it stays. I'm building a new life now and even though I can't change what I've been through, I sure as hell can change where I'm heading. At least, that's what I thought until I met HER. ARAN:  All I need is a camera and a sport. I can take care of the rest. I was happy before I met him. I had my career and I answered to no one. My passion was through my lens, where it was safer to be. But then HE comes along.  He's everything I usually despise in a man; he's arrogant, cocky, and way too sure of himself. Yet, I know he has reason to be. I also know it's all covering up a deep pain, which is something I can relate to. But he can never know that. I won't be a woman who gives up everything for a man. Especially if it's my heart. 

You will never forget your first date, your first kiss, or your first love. You'll also never forget how it felt when it was torn apart. Seventeen-year old Grace Hathaway does not give much thought to falling in love, until the day that Ian Taylor, rebel and misfit walks into her math class. From their first conversation, Grace is mesmerized by Ian's charisma and rock star façade. Ian Taylor, a seventeen-year old kid from the wrong side of the tracks tries to ignore the feelings he has for Grace, but is captured by her caring, non-judgmental personality from the moment they meet. Grace becomes Ian's everything and there is nothing he will not do for her. Hurting her was never part of his plan. ***Recommended for ages 18+ due to sexual content and strong language.*** Reviews for “The Falling of Love”: “This book was emotionally wrenching and really pulls at you.
