Great romantic read with low drama. Fast paced novel with a great build world. Perfect read for an afternoon. Arc provided by Netgalley

This is an interesting story about an, in her own words, dorky girl who’s had a long standing crush on the most popular guy in town. In high school he was the homecoming king, son of the sheriff, and boyfriend to the most popular girl in school. Now, he’s still the most popular guy in town, works as a deputy in the dept. his dad still runs, and he has the reputation of a player. The HS girl broke his heart and he hasn’t looked for love since. She finally has her chance to catch his attention and she’s taking her shot.

The characters were okay in this one, but some of the interactions felt a bit immature to me. Also, SPOILER ALERT *** What kind of silly girl knows who killed the father she adored and doesn’t say anything for years? Then we find out that her mom knew too. I can’t with these people. Thus, the 3 star rating.***

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Emotionally charged, this will take you on a long rollercoaster ride and will leave you breathless but the story is worth it!

I had a really hard time with this one. It's pacing was overall very slow straight away, and didn't speed up much by the end. It also bothered me that she lives in a small town, has knowm Logan since grade school, but he doesn't know who she is at all. It was hard to suspend my disbelief with that, especially since she was "in love" with him.

I really enjoyed this book from Entangled. It's so cute and sweet--definitely a great option for a beach read this summer about longed-for love.

This was my first interaction with Season Vining and let me tell you that I really enjoyed this story!
It was well written and it truly stayed true to it's premise.
Highly recommend!

**3.75 Stars**

This was my first book by this author. Overall I ejoyed the writing style, although I did feel like the book was fairly slow in some parts. I enjoyed Angela and Logan as characters for the most part and felt like the chemistry was there, and I enjoyed the feisty secondary character Audrey.

I felt like the book had an interesting story line, but maybe felt like more could have been done with it or that something was missing. I felt like the book was fairly even, not a ton of excitement or drama or angst, but it was an okay read overall.

The first story I've read by Season Vining and hopefully not the last. Angela and Logan were perfect for each other. Lots of things going on in the book but it all comes together for a marvelous read.

I received a copy of FEARLESS AND FALLING on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the publisher and author for the opportunity.

FIVE STARS! And here’s why:

Season Vining gave me a wicked book hangover. I devoured this book in one night. I laughed. I cried. I think I even fell in love a bit. Went right out and bought her book that preceded this one. I’m excited to read more about this author.

If you like sexy stories with strong heroes and savvy heroines, plus a side of sassy friends, then this book is for you. Highly recommend.

Angela has secretly loved Logan since the third grade but he never so much as looked her way. Now she has grown into a beautiful woman and he definitely sees her now but the death of her father looms over them. Will there be a happily ever after for these two or will her father always come between them? I voluntarily agreed to receive an ARC of this book foe an honest review.

Fearless and Falling is a character driven story set in small town America. It is refreshing for the main characters to be regular, everyday people. There are no billionaires, no destitute but ravishing beauties; just a regular waitress and a sheriff’s deputy.

Fearless and Falling is set in the same world as this author’s previous book: Chaos and Control, and the two stories run concurrently. It was lovely to touch base again with Wren and Preston, and we got to see another side of Wren which was interesting to see unfold.
I love Season Vining’s writing, her lyrical style absorbs the reader and keeps you turning the pages. Although Fearless and Falling was not as emotionally intense as Chaos and Control, it was an addictive read and I enjoyed every page.

This book is a standalone and it’s not necessary to have read Chaos and Control to understand or enjoy this story, if you have, it’s just an element that will add another depth to the story.

I’d recommend Fearless and Falling to anyone who enjoys a character driven story, and like me, finds it refreshing to read about ‘normal’ people, giving the billionaires a well-deserved break.

4 Stars

I picked up this one after reading the description, and I was really excited to try Season Vining's writing. I can say that I was pleasantly surprised by this book and I know that I will try more of her work in the future. I liked the way she built the world, and that the characters had secrets that they needed to face so that they could move forward.

Angela was a sweet girl, who was working to get herself through school. I liked that she was driven and had goals, however she lacked confidence and was kind of invisible in high school. With a gentle push from her friend, she finally flirted with her high school crush, and he finally saw her.

Logan was under pressure and to pursue a career as a detective, he needed to solve a cold case. He didn't expect develop feelings for the quiet little art nerd, who was close to his case. I liked they way he would come into the diner to eat and visit Angela.

It was sweet seeing Angela and Logan's relationship grow. Despite Logan's reputation, he tried very hard to woo Angela. They had more in common than either of them realised. There were a few characters that were introduced that I'd like to see more of, so I'd like to come back to this world again!

“Fearless And Falling” blurb is was what initially pulled me into the story due to the promising premise. Then chapter after chapter I found my interest dwindling and skimming a few pages hoping for something to hook me back into the read resulted empty. Unfortunately there wasn't that “it” factor to keep me going and I decided it was probably best for put this in my “Dropped” graveyard.

What a fun read. Angela and Audrey's conversations - omg are hilarious! Everyone needs an Audrey in their life. Logan was swoon worthy and add his dorkiness to it makes him a great character. Angela and Logan's references to pop culture were an added plus. The reason it wasn't a five star is the fact that I felt there were some holes. Tiffany and Scott's parts in the book kind of dropped out of sight after their drama. The big murder mystery seemed to be a major lead up and then it was just solved along with her mother's issues.

Fearless and Falling by Season Vining is a sweet NA Romance that had lots of entertaining moments; there were also some spots that lagged and dragged, but overall this was a nice and quick read with the right amount of heat and sexiness that will take a reader outside of their own problems for a bit.

Please note that an ARC was generously provided in exchange for an honest review of which this is both honest and completely voluntary.

This was a really good story from an author I have never read before. Interesting concept and it is a NA romance.

i read the first book in this series and really liked it, so i figured i'd read book two, fearless and falling. and it was perfectly fine. it's just that the set up for this book is that the main character, angela louise has been in love with the hero, logan sawyer forever. and then he gets blackmailed into paying attention to her in order to solve her father's possible murder. and like, that's all fine.

it's just that the level of pining that angela has for logan is extreme. like in a weird she flies off the handle and tries to hook up with her ex in order to not feel bad about herself because logan's ex just came back into town. that whole moment, is like, crazy. stable people don't react that way.

and maybe that's just it. angela isn't stable. and logan does actually fall for her once he starts to get to really know her. and, of course, the blackmail held over his head is going to play into everything. but i don't know. i just didn't connect with these characters, which is a bummer. because i really loved wren and preston from the first book.

**fearless and falling will publish on march 18, 2019. i received an advance reader copy courtesy of netgalley/entangled publishing (embrace) in exchange for my honest opinion.

This was my first book by Season Vining, and I really enjoyed it. I don’t think it is something I will reread but it held my interest the entire time and I really enjoyed this love story!!

Angela saw that Logan was pulling up in his Crowley’s Sheriff's Department cruiser. She was at work at Millie’s diner. She was so attracted to Logan. Logan told her he was a judge at the beauty pageant and Old Man Jennings had offered him twenty dollars to make sure his granddaughter was a finalist in the pageant. They continued talking about that for awhile. Than he gave Angela the look that dropped girls panties all over the county. Angela works at Millie’s Diner with her good friend Audrey. Than Lizzie came in the diner and said Wren Hart was back. Wren was Logan’s ex girlfriend and the love of his life. Wren had left four years ago and she broke Logan’s heart. Angela’s art is the only thing in her life that makes her feel whole. Wren is in the diner and at Angela’s table. When Angela was in H S deep in her infatuation with Logan, Logan was in love with Wren. She was his universe. Angela tried to keep the ridiculous hostility toward Wren in check. She didn’t accuse Wren of breaking Logan, of turning him into the non-committal player he was now. Angel didn’t mention that how Logan changed since Wren had left. When Angela goes to give Wren her food she was sitting with Preston who no one ever sat with. Angela told Audrey she wanted the whole fairy tale. She wanted to be swept off her feet by a man who wants to know everything about her, who isn’t scared to deal with her mother-Jean-, who seen the real her and wants it all. Audrey told her if that’s what she wants she had to put on her big girl panties and finally land Logan. Angela got a text from her mother and she was going to her house after work. Jean hadn’t left the house since her father-Nick- death. Angela made sure she had everything she needed. But Angela does have her own place about three miles down the road from her mother. Angela hasn’t really recovered from her father’s death either . how do you get over losing your best friend at seventeen? Angela met Danny her first semester at college and he was nice. Their relationship started as a friendship. But through all the trauma, and grief, and even her relationship Logan was always present. He’d been the center of Angela’s universe since was eight years old and nothing could change that. Logan feels like his life has been mapped out by everyone else. Logan had been researching what it takes to be a detective. It would mean he’d have to leave Crowley at least for work. It would also mean more schooling and working his butt off to prove he was more than a sheriff’s kid looking for a free ride. Logan looks up to his dad but he doesn’t want his life. Than another officer comes in- Smith who knew Logan had been arrested when he was young and his father made the arrest disappear for Logan. If Logan doesn’t help Smith up seat his father and take over his desk job Smith will let everyone know about the arrest. It would ruin his father’s reputation and the town really loved his dad and Logan would never be allowed to work in law enforcement. Smith wanted to solve Angela’s father’s murder/death. Smith told Logan to use Angela to get an in with her and her mother to interview them and find out everything he can and give the information to Smith. Angela is starting her first evening of summer semester. Three years of night classes are wearing on Angela. Angela considers being an artist her destiny. Art was in her blood. Her father had been a painter . he’d draw pictures for ehr and hid them around the house. Her mother never understood their love of art. Angela wanted to teach art to elementary school kids. Angela tells Audrey she is going after Logan. Although she didn’t know where to start. Angela had no game. Than Logan asks Angela out and she feels like her dreams may be coming true. Things seem to be going good and Angela and Logan sleep together. All of Logan’s friends accept Angela but Tiffany who seems to be bitter that she never had her chance with Logan. One Sunday Logan is feeling a lot of guilt about Angela and ends up getting drunk with his friends. He calls Angela and asks her to meet them at the Haystack bar. Than they decide to go put to the lake, while there Tiffany viciously lets Angela know Logan asked her out to get close so he can find out any information she or her mother know about her father's case. Angela call Logan a liar and goes back home in Tiffany’s car. Angela goes to Andreys to spend the night. Angela told Audrey she may know something about her father’s case. Audrey said if she can’t tell her than Audrey would call the sheriff and she could talk to him. Angela said she had been thinking about this for four years but how many people’s lives did she have to ruin to give herself peace? When Angel took her mother the stuff from her shopping list the next day she tells Angela Wren had been attacked and Preston had saved her. Angela couldn't even find joy in painting right now.
A great read. I didn’t want to put this down. I loved Logan and Angela together and how they interacted. I loved the intrigue, suspense, romance and everything else in this book. I loved Audrey she made me chuckle. I loved the Jean finally left her house and was getting some help. I loved how Logan came clean with Angela and was determined to get a second chance no matter how long he had to wait. I loved the characters and the ins and outs of this book and I highly recommend it.

Fearless and Falling by Season Vining was my first read by this author and I enjoyed reading it. It was a charming small-town romance with a bit of mystery added to it as well. Angela has had feelings for Logan for a long time, but he’s never noticed her, until now. All of a sudden, he is seeing what has been in front of him this entire time.

Angela was the shy girl that preferred to stay in the background. Logan has always been popular and well liked. Angela finally decides to take a chance and go after Logan, while something pushes Logan to notice Angela. Will they be able to see what they could have or are the secrets they are keeping tear them apart?

Happy reading.
