Description

My rules: No players. No flirts. No cocky jerks. 
My exception: Dawson Marsh. 

Dawson might be every girl’s crush in this small town, but not mine. I can appreciate him from a distance, and that suits me fine. 

Except that one time he kissed me. Up close and personal. 

Once is a mistake. But the second time? Sublime.

The man should come with some kind of a warning sign: Not safe for work! Hot to the touch! But what kind of girl can’t handle a little friends with benefits action, right? 

The one who missed the most important warning: Danger, risk of falling.

*This is a full-length, standalone romance with a guaranteed HEA.

    The book starts very fast. I was a little confused at the beginning but I stuck it out and I do love the chemistry of the main characters.

    This is book 3 of the Swoon series and the first on that I have read and I really enjoyed this book. Dawson and Evie were such a great couple. The chemistry between them was off the charts. You could feel it radiating off the pages. I am surprised that my Kindle didn’t melt. They both had some issues in their past and they were able to overcome those because they had each other. I loved watching how their friendship developed into something much more. Great book. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

    This was my first with J.H. Croix and I can definitely say that it won't be my last! Break My Fall was full of swoon, chemistry, and personal growth. We are able to see how just because the baggage of our past tries to take us over and bring us down, if we just embrace that it is that baggage which makes us us we can truly find the peace and the love that we desire. This was a beautiful book and I cannot wait to start back at the beginning on the Swoon Series and see what other beautiful stories J.H. Croix has shared.
  • Ever and Dawson will definitely make you swoon!

    Once I dove into this book, I couldn't put it down. Evie and Dawson have a short history, but it's an intense history - and that intensity spills into their eventual relationship. While that relationship has its incredibly rocky moments, the both of them grow and mature in ways that make them one of my favorite book couples I've read this year. Add into it the backdrop of the breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountains, and this story is beautiful in so many ways. It's also a little dark at times, and incredibly realistic, which I very much appreciated; Evie and Dawson aren't all cupcakes and unicorns and all-the-way-in-love-from-the-first-second-they-see-each-other, which made this story a little unpredictable (in a good way) and a great read.

    Let me start off with saying I read this book not realizing it was part of a series. I still was able to enjoy and understand the book, but my type a personality loves to reach things in order! I am grateful that I found this series because I know I have a brand new one to enjoy and a new author to read (two of my favorite things) I loved the overall writing of the series. It gripped and pulled you in to the point that you are swiping your IPad faster and faster to devour the words that are on the screen. Each chapter pulled me deeper into the story of Dawson and Evie. The two people who should be together in my opinion but were fighting it for some weird reason. I love the development of both characters. Especially when it comes to Evie dealing with the demons of her past and how she fights through that, with the support from Dawson. It is hard for Evie to trust what Dawson says, being a playboy, so will these two get their HEA?

    I have to honest with you... this is my first book that I have read from this author, and I picked a book that was the third installment in a series.lol But let me tell you it will not be the last... I have one-clicked the first two already. This book follows Dawson and Evie and OMG!! It is so swoon worthy. This book contains great writing, believable characters and a fantastic plot. Definitely recommend this series to all who love " happily ever after" books. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

    This was such a beautiful story, showing how time and friendship can lead to the most beautiful relationship. Dawson’s character absolutely drew me in. He has the tough outer shell, when he’s truly hurting inside. Depression is a contest battle for him, as a child he didn’t live in the best environment as his father was an abusive man. As well as working as a first responder, it has shown him things that not everyone can handle. Evie hasn’t had the easiest live growing up either. Losing her twin sister was a huge pivotal moment in her life. Her peers would pick on her, and this made her not as confidence as she should be. Dawson has always been known as the playboy, the one night stand guy. Evie wants more than someone for just a night. When these two finally realize what has been right in front of them can they give each other the chance they both deserve? J.H. Croix has really made an impact on me with this story. The subject of depression is always something that people seem to hush, as if it’s a terrible secret. She wrote about it extremely well, and I can say I will always be one clicking for her books!

    Really enjoyed reading Dawson and Evie’s story. Their back and forth joking and banter along with their undeniable chemistry made this an awesome romance. This was my first book in this series and I can say that you can read it completely as a standalone, although I plan to joe read the first 2 books! If you are looking for an easy to read romance with some steamy chemistry this book is for you!

    Dawson and Evie both work at the Stolen Hearts Lodge. Dawson is a fun loving flirt who prefers one night stand vs relationships. Evie, while not looking for a relationship, is not against having one if the right guy comes along...and Dawson is definitely not the right guy. However, after 2 years of teasing and working together things begin to change when he randomly kisses her! A great read to see how their story unfolds and how their private pasts affect their relationship!
