Resumen del Editor

Sometimes it takes someone else to show us what we are truly capable of becoming. Suffering from years of violent abuse, Ryan Campbell has learned how to keep people from getting too close. But when you shut yourself off, people get hurt along the way. Never caring much about others, Ryan creates a world in which he doesn't have to feel. When Ryan meets Candace Parker, all of his walls slowly begin to crumble. Not sure of the truth of who she is, he feels his mind is playing tricks on him. Unable to force out the thoughts that consume him, Ryan is haunted by visions that torment him every time he looks at her. He finds himself swallowed by guilt and blame, but he's unwilling to turn his back on the one person that could possibly save him. You've heard Candace's story in Fading, now hear Ryan's.

I wish they combined the first and third book

I would have liked the book more if they combined the first and third book into one and have a back and forth pov. It's hard to listen to 10 hours or so all of the same pov. So you listen to the first book and then this book is the same story so it's a lot of repeat of what you already heard. It would have been a lot better and less repetitive if the author combined the two books. But I liked his pov more than hers from the first book.

Falling

I have to say that it was amazing listening to these three stories back to back! They are stand alone but it’s nice to listen to a series and tie each one together! Great narration and storyline too!

Omg I love Ryan Campbell

If you could sum up Falling in three words, what would they be?

I so loved this book better than Fading. This book gave more of a complete story for this couple. Ryan was so loving and supportive, everyone should have a Ryan in their life. This world might be a better place.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Falling?

The extended story that picked up from where Candace's story left off in book 1. I liked seeing them work through their relationship and communicate better. Oh and I loved the diaper incident with the baby, I laughed out loud. I also enjoyed the cat situations too! It just showed another example of how much he cared and loved Candace.

Which character – as performed by Angelo Carillo and Piper Goodeve – was your favorite?

Candace was performed better by Piper, obviously because she is a female. I also like how Piper portrayed her male voice's too. She had good inflection for the male voice's. I can't tell if I liked her better for Candace because by the time Piper does her part as Candace the character, Candace is finally on the road to recovery and therefore stronger and more confident. However, I thought Angelo did a more passionate and feeling portrayal as Ryan. I didn't care for his female Candace, however his mother's voice was ok. I guess I liked them both which is why I am thinking that it would be nice if some how they, being Audible.com & Company could use both male and female narrators to perform more like a play on tape. But I don't know maybe it is too difficult to produce.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This book had me laughing and crying. It also had me a little frustrated because of how many times candace apologized. Spoiler alert stop reading this if you don't want to know what happens. I was also frustrated because I would have liked to experience the joys of reading about her pregnancy, I was kind of looking forward to Candace telling him she was pregnant. Especially since Ryan was so good with his niece's and nephews you knew he would have enjoyed the impending fatherhood and that could have added to the story.

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed the story of this couple and enjoyed this book because of the complete story from start to finish.

Emotional

I really enjoyed this book. It touches on emotions that will have you rethink a lot of things in life. To go through things that changes your life for the worse and sometimes you will find what you needed all along to help you through it. Just to get where you are supposed to be.

Love the story--the narration killed it for me

Is there anything you would change about this book?

I read this book a while ago and was happy that the Audible version became available. Until I listened to it. What is up with the narrator's female voices?! Awful! I cringed every time he voiced Ryan's mom. And his voice for Candice did nothing to convey her strength. And Kimber? Just...ugh! He did a good job as Ryan and the other male characters. But I died a little bit each time he spoke for a female character. I'll be sticking to the written version.

What did you like best about this story?

I love this series. The story gripped my heart and I love Candice and Ryan together.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Yes

Any additional comments?

I have a hard time believing this is how the author intended to portray her female characters.

Romantic

I just want to say that I love this writer so much. I love Ryan in this story he was so in love and patient with Candice. I couldnt imagine this love story ending any other way :)

Loved..Loved....Loved Ryan in this book!

OMG, this book was awsome told from Ryan's point of view. It was not a cloned version of the first book It filled in a lot of gaps and extended the story perfectly. Ryan stole my heart over and over with his compassion, regret, and love for Candace. I encourage you to read it and not pass it by.

Great story

Great story. Love the deep love for each other and the process of healing. Did not like the mothers voice. I do understand it is difficult for a men with a deep voice to sound like a women but the mothers voice was annoying to me.

The Best Book in the Series

I am hesitant with Alternate POV stories because they sometimes fail to keep me engaged or provide new material. Falling is one of the few that is possibly better than the initial POV. I loved every moment of Ryan's story. It was emotional and beautiful - simply perfect.

Falling

this was a heart felt story of how two people meet in an unexpected situation. what a great escape. I have another author to see what good stories I will enjoy.
