The Fallback
A romance novel by Mariah Dietz
(Advanced Reader Copy)
I am always thrilled when I win an ARC for review. My problem is, I enter so many contests, I never truly remember where I entered the giveaway. Regardless, I won this romance novel. If you know me, I normally do not do romance. So is The Fallback, by Mariah Dietz, the romance novel that set me to rights and one you should have in your library?

Okay, I am not a romcom kinda girl. I'll watch a romantic movie every now and then, but I figured I'd let this one be my Valentine's piece. The Fallback is about a gal who's caught the love of her life cheating, "in action", and left with what she feels is a meaningless life, filled with work.
She's a workaholic, practically living the life of her boss through being both her number one agent at Glitter and Gold, as an event planner, and as a personal assistant to her boss. She loves what she does and is more than excellent. She dives in, so deep, after the break-up that when she's pushed back into the dating scene, she doesn't know what to do, say or how to behave! Which is cute, because I don't know anyone like that. At. All.
Anyway, she sets out and meets this guy in a club/bar. It's cute what he does to catch her attention, but what I saw coming is the way their worlds truly collide. I saw it coming a mile away, which is weird for me and far from romantic. But it didn't hurt the story.
I loved Brook (Books, to her bestie's little one) and the way she thought. She was practical, funny and down to earth. She put her job first when it mattered, no matter how much it took from her. She put her friend and their family first all the time and she protected herself and feelings in a natural manner that felt organic. Her best friend was a riot and I loved that she was able to remind Brook of who she was without being harsh, calling her disrespectful names and such that you see in other books. Lastly, I loved Levi. In my mind, he was an absolute hunk and the cover dude does him no justice, compared to my imagination! LOL
All in all, The Fallback, by Maria Dietz, was marvelous! I actually rated this a 5-star on both Goodreads and Amazon. How's that for a LIKE? Grab yourself a copy while I move on to the next read. Cheers, you love birds!
