I received an advanced reader's copy of Fearless and Falling by Season Vining from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I had never read anything by Season Vining before this, but I was very pleasantly surprised and pleased to find a new author to follow.

The good: I found the novel to be well written and the dialogue between the characters (primary characters as well as secondary) was entertaining. The plot was not new - the golden boy (popular kid) notices and goes for the geeky, unpopular girl after noticing that she grew up alright - but it was well written and the characters were relatable and likeable.

The bad: nothing really new/novel about the plot. The conflict is the mystery around the death of Angela's father, and even that was predictable.

It's nice to know Logan isn't as stupid as he looks and knows when his woman is mad, "...Logan’s full of laughs until he sees my face. His eyes dart to Tiffany and Myra and back to me, and after a few seconds he must put two and two together..." Logan is such a charmer, "his eyes travel over me slowly, and my cheeks start to burn. “When I’m around you, naked or otherwise, I’m in *** mode.” I liked this book, I loved Logan.

I mostly enjoyed this story. It is a new author for me and I really liked her writing style and the characters she creates. This book includes a mystery of what had happened to Angela's father and thats kkinda what annoyed me about the story. The author really draws it out almost to the very end, where other characters are told the secret but the readers aren't til the very end which kinda annoyed me.

That said I enjoyed the romance between hunky lawman Logan and waitress and college student Angela. Anegla has loved Logan since she was 8, and he finally notices her and asks her out. I loedwatching them date and get to know each other and fall in love. I did not like Logan's friends but I did like Angela's bestie.

This was a good romance about the man finally seeing the love of his life who has been there all along.
