My life just went South…

Twenty-four hours. That’s how long it took my life to flip upside down.

Wake up in bed alone after the best night of my life? Check.

Get fired instead of the promised promotion? Check.

Wealthy parents cut me off when I refuse to follow their path for my life? Check.

Now I’m in Cricket Creek, SC—a place where no New Yorker belongs—disowned and broke, with a new job that I can’t mess up. Oh yeah, and staring at my one-night stand, who happens to be the complete opposite of my type.

Southern.

Cocky.

Bartender.

Noah Hunter never should have made it back to my apartment in NYC, and I definitely shouldn’t be in his small town. But fate had another plan. Or a horrible sense of humor.

Who knew Mr. Wrong could feel so right…

 

 

No Falling Allowed is a quick and cute romance. Noah is a single parent, raising his younger brother after their parents passed away. Grace is a NYC socialite who finds herself disowned and working a wedding down south, where she just so happens to bump into her one-night-stand that did a midnight dash on her. Let’s just say that this story is filled with quite a bit of awkward moments.

I read this story as a stand-alone even though it is the second book in a series. With that being said, I never found myself lost or feeling left out. I’m assuming the previous book is about Grace’s friend, who just so happens to be getting married in this book, but I never felt like I was missing out on some sort of connection between the books. I felt that this story stood out on its own and can totally be read as a stand-alone.

Considering that the beginning of the book begins with a misunderstanding between Grace and Noah, which leads to a one-night-stand, these two hit the ground running. Then when Grace’s life takes a major turn and she ends up down south helping plan a wedding, only to run into Noah, things get even more juicy. Especially since Noah snuck out of her apartment in the middle of the night without so much as a note. Now they find themselves getting thrown together left and right as Grace tries to show her new boss that she can be an amazing wedding planner.

I really enjoyed my time reading Grace and Noah’s story. It was a cute, quick read that had me wishing for more time with these two characters.
