I'm finally home after struggling through my brother's illness and death. But, home is definitely a bit different. My best friend (the only person alive now that knows my secret) has a new boyfriend; and he has a friend. Shane Maxton: bad boy, tattooed rock god, eye candy extraordinaire. He is also New York City's most arrogant, self-serving, son of a, well, a definite one-night stand kind of a guy.

A paranormal romance.

3.0 out of 5 stars Another Half a Book August 18, 2012

To be Honest, I didn't actually read the reviews before I started this book. I liked the sample and decided it was what I was looking for- something not terribly deep but a good romance. In that respect, it didn't disappoint. It's really obvious who she's been looking for, but it's supposed to be. Sometimes I wanted to smack her though, because the way she went about it really didn't make any sense. Why wouldn't she consider Shane? Why would she be looking for his eyes when hers (and presumably his) would have changed each life? There were probably well thought out answers to these questions, and I would have liked the author to take the time to answer them.

The other thing that bothered me about the novel was the rushed ending, if you can call it that. This is another case of "here's half the story. Now buy the second one." When did this become acceptable? Books shouldn't just stop partway through the action... that's the climax, the third act. Now finish the story. I'm not even talking about just having a cliffhanger; a cliffhanger implies the conflict has been resolved and then another shocking event happens. In this case, the book has been hinting to this end all along. We're finally getting to the meat of the novel when it stops.

I would recommend waiting until the next one is out before purchasing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can I give it 10 stars? July 28, 2012

Ok, l am so lucky! I found this book by chance as soon it was released... I don't read paranormal very often, but the cover got my attention and I decided to give it a chance... Wow!!! I was captivated immediately. The first stages of Grace and Shane relationship reminded me of Beautiful Disaster and Shane and his band reminded me of Thoughtless (two of my absolute favorite books)... So I knew I was in for a great ride!!! Fall from Grace is now definitely on my forever favorites list, right next to Rock Me and the Twilight Saga,,, If you liked any of those 4 books I've mentioned you will love this one. I just hope we don't have to wait long for the second book... I am so looking foward to it!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars I loved it! July 30, 2012

I have read over 120 books this year and this book is one of my five star books. I found out about Fall From Grace via a book blogger I follow, Maryse. I like almost all of her recommendations and this was a winner for me. The whole guitar playing hot guy vibe, lots of angst, great secondary characters and the paranormal mystery surrounding Grace just enhanced the dynamic of the story. I don't even mind the cliffhangy part at the end because I am so into the story I can't wait for more. Kudos to the author and I will definitely be looking forward to more of her work!
