Thoroughly enjoyed this book! Had me laughing in quite a few moments while reading and I loved the interactions and chemistry between Autum and Declan

I find this story very original. Declan and Autumn don't even have falling for each other on their radar. And both are very likable. Her frantic need to protect him is adorable. His dedication is swoon till you drop worthy. I love it! The author managed to make a book that included the sad without it overshadowing how sweet the story is. This read is even fun and quirky. It had me chuckling, I enjoyed every page.

What a fun book! Autumn believes she's a guardian angel to one man. Declan Moss. Declan believes he has a stalker. Declan's best friend slash business partner thinks he's just paranoid. Autumn’s sister and shrink thinks this is her way of mourning her mothers loss. All of that combined made for one comedic story that will also really pull at your heart strings.

Autumn was such a fun character. She's quirky, fun and isn't afraid to do anything. She has a pet pig, wears Wonder Woman t-shirts, creates dog scrapbooks for an elderly neighbor and takes the protection of a practical stranger to new heights.

Declan is an architect who started his own firm with his best friend. He's all business and a touch OCD with cleaning. He recently broke up with his cheating girlfriend who he thought he would marry someday. No one has sparked his interest since. The last person he ever expected to be attracted to was his stalker.

I really enjoyed this book. I'm such a fan of quirky characters and Autumn was so fun to read about. While Declan was more straight-laced, his reactions to her added to my overall enjoyment of this couple. As much fun as I had with this book, it also had emotional moments. This was pretty much the total package!

2.5 stars

This book was not at all what I expected in both good ways and bad.

There were some genuinely funny moments and an interesting premise. Autumn has been following Declan around, sure she is meant to keep saving him from being hurt or worse. She thinks she is his guardian angel of sorts, but he just thinks she's a possible stalker who is obsessed with him.

Honestly, the way some of her actions were played for humor did bother me a bit because she is literally going through his trash and following him around constantly. I understand the place it comes from in her is not one of malice or I'll will, but it still felt kind of too much.

Additionally, when Declan and Autumn finally cross paths, it felt like his issues with her following him were just brushed aside very quickly because she needed help and his protective instincts kicked in. I think there may have needed to be more development between them before it would feel believable that he would fall for the person who up until then had been freaking him out with her stalking.

At about 80% there were some moments in the story that I enjoyed as things started to progress between the characters and the plot as well. The narrative switches between first person for Autumn and third person for Declan. I didn't understand why the perspective change was needed, but it did make it very clear who the narrator was each chapter.

A unique Romantic Comedy from Alessandra Torre!!!
You will enjoy Autumn and Declan! You'll wonder who's the crazier.... him or her! HAHAHA

3 stars from me

Holy cow! Magic. Everything Alessandra Torre writes is magic. Tripping on a Halo is no different. This super fun and sexy read completely blew me away. It had the perfect blend of amazing character chemistry, original storyline, and witty banter. I love, love, love everything about this book!

Whether its erotic romance, mind fucks, or RomCom, Alessandra Torre proves time and time again she can write in any genre and still keep the readers coming back for more.

Tripping on a Halo had so many laugh out loud scenes, and then it took a turn I wasn't quite expecting. And that's what made this book so freaking great! It ended up messing with my emotions big time and it hit me out of nowhere. Reading as often as I do, I can usually spot a plot twist a mile away, this one escaped me.

As Forrest Gump once said, "Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get." I feel like this fits Torre's work as well. Bravo! I heart this book so much.

~ A Hopeless Romantic's Booklandia, 5 Stars

Declan Moss has no idea why is stalker continued to follow him everywhere he went. It seemed his life had suddenly changed and keeping his distance was the only thing keeping him safe. He never considered that the reason why he was safe from harm was due to his self appointed guardian angel. Autumn felt a deep connection to Declan and vowed to keep him safe. Actually meeting him in person could seriously play havoc with being a guardian angel but she finally succumbed to his dashing personality. Did she truly save his life or would he end up saving hers? A great story that will make you laugh and bring tears to your eyes.

I've never read a book by Alessandra Torre. This was my first. This romantic comedy was delightful and so enjoyable.
The main characters, Autumn and Declan are GREAT!!! It's so funny how Autumn is a little bit of everything: clumsy, awkward, and even high maintenance, yet is somewhat stalker-ish. Declan, on the other hand, is sweet, kind, loving...everything we all want in a man.
Thrillers and suspense are definitely my favorite kinds of books, but every once in a while I need an easy read...something light hearted and just enjoyable. This proved to be just this...and a little bit more. I definitely got more out of this book than I expected. I will be looking for more of Torre's books in the future.

A fun, fluffy romance that's a great blend of sweetness and plenty of light-heartedness. If you're looking for a deeply emotional read, try one of Torre's other books but if it's a quick read you're after, this one would be perfect!
Good stuff!

I have to say that I am a huge Alessandra Torre fan. Her talent has no boundaries. Although it is romance, I would recommend Black Lies to any reader. Her way of writing, the rawness and the boldness of it, is outstanding.
This story, though, it just wasn't for me. It is a cute story, a fun romantic comedy with plenty of humorous incidents. It is a light read with a twist towards the end but I just prefer her other writing more.

I almost gave up on this one. This was an awkward read, even for an awkward girl. I wasn't exactly sure what Autumn's deal was...other than an obsession for keeping Deacon safe. I didn't know if I could finish reading...but I did. I liked the idea that someone a little eccentric could still get the guy, even though maybe she didn't even want him? The book totally turned into a direction I wasn't expecting. It was quirky and sweet, with a little swoon and swine.

Autumn has recently lost her mother and she has a weird head pain that leads her to know that she must keep Declan Moss safe. She is his guardian angel after all.



Does she know him? No Does that stop her? Also no..
Declan? He does notice Autumn following him. Especially after she steals his garbage.



He wavers on the thoughts of getting a restraining order...then he looks at her facebook profile. The girl has a pig!


Surely no one that has a pig is a real threat? *cough cough*

This book is just pure fun. It's fluffy, made me laugh and the sexuals had me saying....


Booksource: Netgalley in exchange for review.

Alessandra Torre’s talent has no boundaries. She’s such a diverse author and whether she’s writing erotica, suspense or a romantic comedy, she nails it every time. Tripping on a Halo is creative and flawlessly written with a clever plot that had me in hysterics.

Autumn is so unbelievably sweet, she reminds me of sunshine and I couldn’t help but fall in love with her. She’s quirky, a little naive at times, her stalker skills are on point (in a funny way) and the best part is.... she owns a pet pig!! Mr. Oinks is an excellent addition to this book. Declan is perfection, I mean there is nothing bad about him at all. He’s sexy, loyal, devoted and boy does he bring it during the sexy times!! They met under unique circumstances and it was fun reading how their relationship developed. Both characters are so easy to love with their charming antics that put a huge smile on my face. This is such a feel good book that is filled with so much depth and I seriously couldn’t get enough of it.

The last few chapters are touching, heartfelt and oh so romantic. I was pleasantly surprised with Tripping on a Halo as it was so much more than I expected. If you are looking for a refreshing, sweet and laugh out of loud romantic comedy, then this is definitely the book for you. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.

I have never read Alessandra Torre but when I saw the blurb I knew I wanted to read it.

I was a little skeptical though because I thought this could be a paranormal book (her being a guardian angel and all that) but I found out then that it isn’t.

It surprised me how short of a read this was. The heroine is very quirky, at times weird. I didn’t know what to think of her. She had this idea that she needed to protect Declan even though he didn’t even know her.

When he realized he had a stalker he was all freaked out but when he talked to her and saw why she was doing it, he was like okay. From then on it was insta lust.

I didn’t feel very connected to them until the last 20 or so %. It was then that I saw the depth of his feelings.

Since I wasn’t quite okay with the heroine most of the book (even though it’s all very clear at the end), I’m giving this book 4 stars.

This story was adorable and sexy and so much fun. It is absolutely sweet and full of heart and I laughed out loud. It left me smiling after I read this. This is different from what I have read so far from Alessandra Torre, but I loved it. I can't wait to see what she writes next.

4 Stars! Loved this quick, little romance. I read it in 1 snowy day! It was funny, and not altogether predictable... which is hard to accomplish in this crowded genre. The characters were unique, memorable and endearing! With all of the dark, heavy stuff in our world today books like this are a breath of fresh air. This is my first read by this author and I will definitely be back for more! Thank you to NetGalley!

"Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for the advance copy of this book, in exchange for an honest review."

Loved this book very much. It had just enough sweet, sexy romance and the storyline was great! I highly recommend!

One of the best, most upbeat yet tender books I've read from Alessandra Torre. Funny, moving and sexy all at the same time.

This was my first Alessandra Torre read and she has a new fan! This book had me laughing right from the beginning. Autumn and Declan were PERFECT! And who can resist any story where the heroine has a pet pig?! Not this gal! 🐖
