Fear of Falling by S.L. Jennings


I can’t remember the last time I felt completely safe. Security seemed more like a luxury to me, reserved for those who were fortunate enough to have picture perfect childhoods. For those who didn’t bear the ugly scars that keep me bound in constant, debilitating fear. I’ve run from that fear my entire life. But when I met him, for once, I couldn’t run anymore.

He scared the hell out of me in a way that excited every fiber of my being. It wasn’t the tattoos or the piercings. It wasn’t the warmth that seemed to radiate from his frame and blanket me whenever he was near. It was just…him. The scary beautiful man that threatened to alter 23 years of routine and rituals, and make me face my crippling fear.

My name is Kami and I am constantly afraid. And the thing that scares me the most is the very thing I want.

“Don’t worry,” he smiled, pulling me into the hard warmth of his chest. “I’ve got you. I’ll always catch you when you fall.”


And just like that, Blaine had staked his claim on the untouched part of me that no living soul had ever moved. He had captured every fear, every reservation, and crushed them in the palm of his inked hand.

My Review

Fear. What do you feared the most? is it to be hurt? to be broken into pieces? to be left alone? or to be loved?

Most of the books that I've read nowadays is all about the secret past of the lead characters it differs on what secret they supposed to hide. In this story is all about the abuse that Kami encounter when she was a child and she carries the scars until adulthood. All the while she knew she can handle her past and move on she meets the hot and sexy bartender Blaine, the ever loving Blaine, who's willing to accept and catch her when she falls.

The story is well written, very clear, and heart warming, and not just your ordinary story it tackles a very sensitive topic that most women encounter in their childhood. I love the choice of songs included in the book, I love the part when Kami sang one of the famous songs of Paramore, "The Only Exception" I cried at that part of the book, cause you can feel her struggles and fear and willing to open up just for one more person who can actually save her.

Love, love, love the story I'm looking forward to read more books from this talented author! It is simply the best.
