Charmingly sweet and sexy, a delight to read.

Piper Ross is fine with being a southern belle but totally done with being a wallflower. She’s been in love with her best friend’s brother since she met him at age fourteen and now that he’s back from a seven year stint in prison she’s willing to overcome her shyness to make sure he knows she wants to be his. Including being bold enough to defy her parents, move into his house and work in at this tattoo shop.

"Sweetie, when it comes to you, Jase is halfway there. I don’t think it would take much for him to fall the rest of the way. But that’s easy . . . when we fall . . . we don’t know how hard until we hit the ground.”

Piper (love that name) Ross has always played the role of dutiful daughter and all around goody two-shoes because that’s what’s been expected of her. Raised in a wealthy but emotionally cold home, Piper’s tried to live up to the expectations of her parents by being a ...more

This is the second book in this series and I think it could be read as a standalone although, the history of Jase and Piper is somewhat touched on in Take the Fall as well as the background of the entire gang.

I had really high hopes for this one as the ending of the first book set up this little dance between Jase and Piper. This story is based on the trope of the girl being forever in love with her best friend's older brother. The refreshing part about this story was Jase also saw Pi ...more

I really didn't like Jase in Take the Fall but his story intrigued me enough that I wanted to read this book. Jase is really a huge jerk in the first 20% of this book but I ended up loving him by the end of this book. Jase and Piper bring out the best in each other and have a wonderful connection. I'm a big fan of best friends brother type stories and I really enjoyed this one. The steamy scenes were hot and there wasn't an overload of angst.

I generally try to avoid books were the women are doing all the chasing after the man as it pisses me off. I just think 'God woman bloody get a clue and move on!' This was the case with When We Fall for me. Piper had loved Jace for years and watched him whore himself out to anybody and everybody expect her. It's not a new idea but it can work well. Piper did nothing but whine because Jace kept pushing her away for the first 30% of the book. Then all of a sudden they go from zero to hot a ...more

Great second book. Jase was amazing, sweet, hot and just perfect for Piper. I loved how much Piper grew and came into her own. Together they were hot and so perfect. Her parents are just horrible, and I loved how she pulled one over on them. Great seeing Seth and Rowan again. I hope the next book is Hunter and not Emmett.

The two grew up vastly different but were thrown together due to one common person, Jase's sister Rowan. Jase knew Piper before she was the beautiful woman she currently is and Piper loved Jase even when she was a teenager. The novel did their story justice and it was a good read.

Although When We Fall is the second book in the Take The Fall series it can be read as a stand-alone. All relevant points to the background of the characters is nicely recapped within the narrative ensuring all details are fully understood to any newcomer to the series.

Told in dual narrative, the initial encounters with Jase and Piper make you believe on the surface Piper is the complete opposite of Jase. She has had a serious case of unrequited love on her best friends brother for as long as she can remember. Although Piper is utterly beautiful inside and out, her Police Chief father and overly critical mother have crushed her self-esteem ensuring she doesn't feel worthy of pursuing her affections. Made to feel insecure in her looks and a burden due to her asthma, my heart went out to Piper. Basically she has been emotionally neglected and abused by the people who should endeavour to boost her the most. Encouraged to be trophy wife and ensure her families social standing, she has been controlled and dictated to her whole life. Desperate for independence Piper makes a break by moving in with her best friend Rowan, only to be cut off financially by her parents in an effort to re-assert their hold on her. The narrative shows clearly how easy it is for evil to lurk under the cover of civility and when cloaked by money.

Jase, on the other hand, is a ex-con turned tattoo artist, having been in the wrong place at the wrong time. His time served in prison has changed him; heightening his belief that he is undeserving of love and kindness. He has been guardian to his sister from a teenager, shouldering responsibility far beyond his years.

I love how the narrative shows both characters inner thoughts as well as tackling the actions, reactions and consequences idea. Something I talk about a lot both at home and in school. I also enjoyed the notion that fate/destiny steps in to guide Jase and Piper to where they should be. Everything happens for a reason, it's what we make of the after effects that can bring positivity into our lives. However, the journey is never easy, whereby Piper and Jase's insecurities fuel the problems between them.

While I always adore the romance in any story it was really the character development in When We Fall that stole the show for me. Their partnership is the solid foundation needed for them both to flourish ♥ ...more

When We Fall by Marquita Valentine is the second book in the Take the Fall series. It can be read as a standalone, it does have an HEA and no cliffhanger. I enjoyed this one for exactly what it was. It’s a friends to lovers book, with a bit of second chance in there.

I LOVE THIS STORY! I fell so much in love with the first book, about Rowan & Seth. I was so excited for Jase & Piper's story! And it did not disappoint - it is a 10++ star read of the highest order. Part of that is because all the crazy drama of their relationship happens during Rowan & Seth's story, so their book is drama-free. Not from the outside - they have several things trying to work against their HEA. But inside, w/ each other, they are loving & playful & accepting of the other in their ...more

Piper Ross wants her independence away from her controlling family and she wants her best friend's older brother, Jase. Just released from seven years in prison, has always had his eyes on Piper, but he's busy filling his time with booze, loose women, and work. When Piper reaches out to Jase about moving in with him, he doesn't know how to say no even if he should. Living together and working together opens up their eyes that they need to give each other a shot and when they do, it's like it is Piper Ross wants her independence away from her controlling family and she wants her best friend's older brother, Jase. Just released from seven years in prison, has always had his eyes on Piper, but he's busy filling his time with booze, loose women, and work. When Piper reaches out to Jase about moving in with him, he doesn't know how to say no even if he should. Living together and working together opens up their eyes that they need to give each other a shot and when they do, it's like it is meant to be, even if Piper's family is completely against it and willing to do whatever it takes to separate them. As Piper and Jase face everything against them head on, they find that they only need love.

Piper isn't your average NA main character, she wasn't the most popular, the sportiest, or in her eyes, the prettiest, but she was smart, determined, and had the biggest heart. I really enjoyed that about her, that she was so normal. I enjoyed her drive to better herself and better life for others, I could have easily read about just about Piper and her career of helping others. I also liked that she stood up for herself, something we know she didn't do in her past. Jase, the handsome, tattooed ex-con, is our male MC and boy is he a good one. There's no major conflict in these two getting together, they push their worries aside fairly quickly, but Jase is definitely the most attentive. I expected a lot of alpha-male, but didn't get that feel so much. I did, however, get some great smut, something that Marquita Valentine writes so well. While the relationship didn't suck me in, it was fun to read about their successes instead of their failures.

My opinion is not the popular one for this book, unfortunately this one just didn't work for me in the end. When We Fall is a NA novel that has all the cliche requirements and what started as a promising story line fell short for me. While I liked the characters and their romance, I could have done with only one or two major events happening. On top of their slightly unconventional relationship, our MC, Piper, has terrible asthma, the kind of parents you wouldn't wish on anyone, no money, a sort of stalker, oh and did I mention, she's still a virgin and a huge deal is made of it. That's just a lot to take in for one book and one character. Yes, she has an awesome man and great friends, but jeez I would've given up if it was me. On top of that, the role of the parents just doesn't...make any sense. I normally love the story line of the parents who suck and the MC finds her wings or the parents find some sense, but the parental roles in this weren't constant. Dad isn't wealthy, doesn't have a white collar job, but is a pretentious jerk. Mom's got the money, is a total socialite, has a weird one-second moment of having feelings, then back to normal. Who are these parents?! I had a glimmer of hope for the mom, just a glimmer, but I just ended up disappointing. The conflicts all seemed to wrap up too easily, and even the most entertaining one was solved without much drama involving the MCs. I just wish we'd had less cliches, more focus on one or two events and their long term effect on the relationship.

This is the second novel in the Take the Fall series, however it can absolutely be read as a standalone. Marquita Valentine is a great writer and always very descriptive. As a reader, you'll be able to picture every character and scene perfectly. While this one wasn't for me, I suggest you take a look at it for yourself. ...more

My Review:

You would think at some point I would get tired of being an author’s bitch but I’m not there yet with Marquita Valentine. When We Fall is yet another reason I am going to continue to be Valentine’s bitch.

Since Piper Ross decided to defy her disgustingly rich, image-conscious, need-to-rot-in-hell parents, her life has been both far better and far worse. On the far worse side, she no longer has access to their money which means she can’t pay for school and she has to live well below the standard she is used too. On the far better side, Piper is now her own woman, she has some really amazing friends, and the guy she has been in love with since she was a teenager just gave her a job and a place to live.

Jase Simmons has spent the past several months making up for the seven years he spent in prison. That’s a lot of partying, a lot of drinking, and a lot of sex. Trouble is, that life style isn’t what Jase really wants and what he really wants is Piper Ross, a woman he considers himself nowhere near good enough for. Piper is innocent where Jase is tainted, Piper is sweet where Jase is harsh, Piper is pure where Jase is so far from pure. Even knowing all of that, Jase still wants Piper with a passion he never thought possible. Jase also wants a better life than he ever thought possible for himself. With Piper by his side, Jase feels like he has something and someone to work for and he begins to do so the second he becomes well and truly involved with Piper.

As Piper begins to work her way into Jase’s world, her suspicions about him are confirmed. Underneath all the bravado is a good guy with the capacity to love her in a way no other person ever has. Jase’s every action speaks to his goodness and his feelings for Piper even if he can’t admit them out loud just yet. In no time flat, Piper and Jase are completely involved with one another and happy to be so but others aren’t quite so excited about their relationship. Though she has severed virtually every tie with her parents, Piper still has to deal with them from time to time and when they get wind of her relationship, all hell breaks loose. As if things couldn’t get any worse, Piper is attacked after meeting with her parents and when Jase comes to her rescue, his past comes back to haunt him. In order to get to their HEA, Piper and Jase are going to need a whole lot of luck!

The Bottom Line: Jase Simmons is some kind of hot and his actions toward Piper makes him all the hotter. From the moment Jase decides to go all in with Piper, he is there for her 110% and no one had better get in his way. Jase lays claim to Piper in some very primal (yet tender) ways and Piper soaks up every second of her man’s attention. As the plot unfolds, Piper really comes into her own and with Jase’s support finds her own voice and a reserve of strength even she didn’t know she had. As Piper’s confidence grows, she puts everyone in their place and defends her man and her choices at every turn. In this particular instance, I absolutely loved seeing everyone getting exactly what they deserved!! ...more

This was such a fantastic read. When We Fall is the second book in the Take The Fall series, but can totally be read as a stand-alone. Ever since I finished the first book in this series, I have been dying to get my hands on the next one and let me tell you, this one does not disappoint.

From the moment I picked up this book, I was dying to know more. I was intrigued by Piper and Jase. Jase has had a hard life. It’s been an adjustment for him; returning to life after prison. He’s been working hard and trying to turn his life around. He wants to be someone better, someone that Piper could be proud of. See, even though Jase doesn’t show it, he’s been in love with Piper for years. He’s always wanted her; felt a need to protect her. But, he’s always felt like he wasn’t good enough for her. So, when the time comes and Piper is in need of a job and place to live, Jase can’t say no. Is it a bad idea? Probably. Will they both regret it? Maybe. But, he can’t say no….On the outside, it seems like Piper has lived the charmed life: rich family, nice car, fancy clothes. But, a closer look will show that Piper’s life has been anything but perfect. Piper has never lived a life with love or touch. Amazingly, she always sees the good in everyone, especially Jase. She has been in love with Jase for as long as she can remember. And now that she’s older, she’s finally going to do something about it…..

I loved everything about When We Fall. It was a very good friends to lovers romance. The story-line was captivating and held my attention the entire time. The story was well paced. I loved the characters. Jase and Piper were both very easy to connect with. I loved the chemistry between Jase and Piper. It was HOT and completely undeniable. The push and pull between the two of them definitely kept me coming back for more. They say opposites attract and that is the truth here. These two might be complete opposites, but they couldn’t be more perfect for each other if they tired!

When We Fall was a great addition to this series. It had the perfect balance of angst, drama, and romance. I can’t get enough of this series and these characters and am really looking forward to seeing where this author will take us next!

When we fall is second book in Take the fall series. If you are interested in my review of first book follow the link -> https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... .

This book follows the romance of Rowan’s big brother Jase and her best friend Piper.

After seven years spent in jail Jase is out in the real world, trying to compensate for all the missed time. Women, smoking, booze… it doesn’t matter. But under all this pretense is a sweet guy, looking for somebody to believe in him and love him just the way he is. He didn’t have nice childhood - his father left them and his mother turned to drugs and so he had to take care of him and his baby sister all while surviving in the wrong part of town. But there was always constant, even while he was serving his time in jail, and that was Piper.

Piper is sweet, trusting, rich girl whose family tried to control her by sheltering her. But Piper is sick of her parent’s behavior and moves out, the act that makes her parents disown her, but even that doesn’t affect her decision. She wants to be her own person and she’s not afraid of real world, and although a bit ashamed of not knowing some basic things, she’s willing to learn. She’s been in love with her best friends brother most of her life, waiting for him to finally notice her.

With no place to live or job to pay her bills, she asks Jase for help and he can’t deny her anything no matter how much he wants to stay away from her because he thinks he’s not good enough.

This was sweet, short read.

I liked this book better than the first one. The characters were easier to connect with, and I liked the fact that we could see Piper develop and grow as a person and her own woman. Although she’s shy and afraid to stand up to anybody, she learns how to do it to help her friends and the man she loves. I also liked that it wasn’t classical story where the parents set an ultimatum for heroes and then they have to break up, although they love each other.

Marquita also gave us preview into characters for the next book in series, After we fall, which I’m really looking forward to reading.
