Synopsis (Goodreads) My life just went South…
Twenty-four hours. That’s how long it took my life to flip upside down.
Wake up in bed alone after the best night of my life? Check.
Get fired instead of the promised promotion? Check.
Wealthy parents cut me off when I refuse to follow their path for my life? Check.
Now I’m in Cricket Creek, SC—a place where no New Yorker belongs—disowned and broke, with a new job that I can’t mess up. Oh yeah, and staring at my one-night stand, who happens to be the complete opposite of my type.
Southern.
Cocky.
Bartender.
Noah Hunter never should have made it back to my apartment in NYC, and I definitely shouldn’t be in his small town. But fate had another plan. Or a horrible sense of humor.
Who knew Mr. Wrong could feel so right…

Review: 4 ½ out of 5 stars
No Falling Allowed was a one day read for
me, I thoroughly enjoyed every moment; it was a feel good, romantic read that
had me hooked from the first page. Melissa West is an auto-buy, her
books never fail to disappoint.
I loved our MC Grace in the previous book No Kissing Allowed
so I was excited to learn that she’d have her own book and paired with smexy bartender
Noah Hunter, it was a match made in heaven despite their differences.
Grace is a character that I adored, she is fiercely independent
despite her family background and wanted nothing more than to follow her own
dreams rather than be forced into a career in her father’s successful business.
Within a short period of time Grace has lost her job, was cut
off by her parents and had the best one night stand with a guy who left her
without even a note! She was on a bit of a downer until a job opportunity came
her way and she ended up in the small town of Cricket Creek and in front of her
one night stand, Noah Hunter.
Noah and Grace couldn’t have been more different, they were from
different worlds but they connected and he understood her; his life also wasn’t
easy, I won’t go into his backstory but I ended up loving their connection and
his sexy southern charm.
The setting of Cricket Creek was great! I enjoyed the amazing
cast of characters there; they were a nosy bunch but they were close and bought
some humor to the story.
This is another fabulous book from Melissa West, her characters
and story-lines always draw me in and leave me anxious for more. I am super
excited for her next book.
Thank you Entangled Embrace via Netgalley for the opportunity to read and review this title.
