Break My Fall - (Gossamer Falls) by Lynn H Blackburn

Lynn H. Blackburn is known for memorable characters, mind-boggling suspense, and captivating romance, and this is no exception! Break My Fall is the second book in the Gossamer Falls series and it's another compelling story about the people of Gossamer Falls. I loved the reunion with the Quinn family and the intrigue surrounding Meredith Quinn. Who was trying to harm her, and how far would they go? But wait, we can't ignore the romance. Break My Fall may be Blackburn's most romantic story yet! The taglines, #swoonworthy, and #positivelysizzles, are perfect for this book! I was totally engaged in the witty dialogue, realistic family dynamics, and page-turning suspense. I highly recommend Break My Fall and can't wait to read book three in this Gossamer Falls series! I received a copy from the author and publisher. There was no obligation for a positive review.

It was a treat to be back in Gossamer Falls with the Quinn family. It would be hard to find a more loyal yet quirky family. Readers new to Gossamer Falls will find that Break My Fall works well as a stand-alone read, but will likely want to then read the first book to spend more time with the Quinns and learn more of the backstory alluded to in this book. As always Blackburn provides some sweet romance as a backdrop to an intense suspense story. Danger abounds! Break My Fall is written in classic Blackburn style. Her work is consistently engaging and compelling. That is why I am never hesitant to recommend any and all of her novels. Her dialogue flows naturally, her protagonists are people it is easy to care about, and she creates vivid mental images of her settings without being too wordy in her descriptions. I am grateful to have received a complimentary copy of Breaking My Fall from Revell via NetGalley without obligation. All opinions expressed here are my own.

Break My Fall is quite the wild ride! Even when there was a break in the suspense, the emotional drama kept coming. Grey is a force to be reckoned with, especially when he's concerned about protecting Meredith. I do love a protective hero! And Meredith's extended family makes everything more interesting. They're certainly looking out for her! Grey and Meredith had a bumpy road to travel to arrive on the same page at the same time, but it was a worthwhile journey. They are so adorable together. The suspense really ramps up to nail-biting status by the end, though of course, good guys prevail. You'll have to read to find out how! This is a story you won't want to miss! I received this book from the publisher and was not required to leave a review. This opinion is my own.

This novel is a book that I couldn’t read fast enough but at the same time, I really didn’t want it to end. The story of dentist Meredith and sheriff Gray is absorbing and complicated since they are both stubborn, opinionated and independent. Meredith has somehow put herself into the crosshairs of a local crime boss and Gray is determined to keep her safe, in spite of her foolhardiness that leads her right into danger. I loved the family dynamics, especially how Mo and Cal rallied around Meredith to protect her and how her family had to approve of Gray as a possible suitor for her. The time around the fire pit was filled with humor as well as revelations and a great way to develop the characters. The plot was fast-paced, with a lot of switchbacks and plenty of unexpected surprises along the way. I liked how the characters were able to banter with each other to keep their spirits up even in the face of imminent danger. With danger from every direction and romance that was budding and sure to bloom, this book was a real winner for me in the romantic suspense category. With plenty of intrigue, heart and hope, this novel had a compelling mystery and a captivating cast of characters. Disclaimer I received a complimentary copy of this book from Revell via Netgalley.
