False Start (Falling Small Duet Book 1) Kindle Edition
Sometimes bad decisions... are made for the right reasons.
I lost everything with the death of my bandmate—my privacy, my reputation, my career, and the love of my life.
I’m nothing but the living ghost of Madelaine Dobransky. Still, I’ve managed to make a new life for myself and build a successful business from the ashes. And even though my world is filled with guilt, secrets, and suspicion... it lies buried beneath the surface.
All I wanted was a tattoo. I didn't know that it would bring him—the one who watches—back into my life. Nor did I expect the tempting tattoo artist, Dexter McClellan, to lay claim on a place in my world. Dex wants to know me, to know the truth.
But I can’t let that happen. Because the truth is buried for a reason.
The truth will destroy me.

An incredible debut. Thrilling, gritty and utterly original. The characters pack punch, the friendships are fierce, the heat is perfection, and the detail threaded throughout is flawless. --Fen Wilde, Author of Close
This book has everything! Characters that a reader can't help but get emotionally involved with and a plot with enough twists and turns to keep you reading through the final page in one sitting. --CJ Love Books Blog

Rebel Farris is a freaking talented writer!!! Let me tell you that when I got the chance to review this book I was excited and pumped, but also beyond nervous..... you really don't know what you will get when you are trying out a new author. (I think that's what excites me... lol)
I am not sure when the last time I grew so attached to a character and felt like I connected emotionally but when I met Maddie (or Laine) I knew I was in deep. The things she experiences I felt right along with her and not only that but parts I could pull from my own life. Maddie will make you cry, get angry and be terrified for her all within a few pages. I am telling you this book even had me laughing at a few parts but then was quickly sparked with an electricity of arousal I was sure I would jump my husband the moment he came home from work.
You meet quite a few characters throughout this book and a first I was confused with some of the girls but I was completely on the edge of my seat that I figured out who was who.
But the men...... oh my just thinking about them is getting me all worked up. Jared is one of the first guys I fell in love with and although I understand the things h/e did throughout the book I am still a little upset. Evan is one of Maddie's best friends that had me swooning during a particular kitchen scene with all the girls!! Another guy that I think could be even sexier than Evan is Nic (or Lucky), ladies I have to say he is a bit of a player though. But during this one particular scene with Maddie and a new guy Law, I would have LOVED to see how it would've played out if Maddie and Nic weren't such good friends, because holy hotness the thought of the three of them made me need to squeeze my legs together to relieve some of the tension building. The last guy I have already mentioned is Law and boy does he get my blood pumping but also my mind racing because he makes me suspicious.
I hate spoilers and any idea of the story being shared so this is why I talk about the characters but my emotions felt like they were thrown back and forth across a long ass room. I cried a lot (some for personal reasons) but mostly because I could feel so much for each of these characters. I will say that some of this book had me freaking out while I was ALONE in my apartment with freaking weird noises going on outside. (I became A LOT paranoid, just saying...)
I have read many different authors and this last week I read one of my favorite best selling authors and just between us...... this book blew my mind more....
**If you know who my favorite author is and are upset with this opinion just know that it is just my opinion and my personal preference. I still love her but I have to be honest.**
This book should be read by all and with that being said I will give you a warning... the end is a freaking mind blown changer of epic proportions!! When you read this book realize that you don't know a thing about what really happened or what is going to happen. Be ready to scream and throw that phone/kindle or whatever you read on (I suggest putting pillows down or aiming towards the couch.) because that reading device will be thrown and you will break down and cry the ugliest cry! Along with not being able to read another dang thing for the entire next day like I did because my brain was still caught up on figuring this out!!

Many authors have the past/present alternating viewpoints in novels these days, some well, some not too well. Rebel is a Master (she should teach courses). Not only is every flashback necessary, but every single one reveals another layer in the intricate onion which is this novel. What takes it to the next level is each flashback propels the Present Day story forward. About halfway through the novel, I pictured her with one of those CSI/Detective Bulletin boards with timeline strings mapped everywhere. What a creative mind - what a talent.
The story is action-packed, sexy and packs such emotional punch that you will be laughing one minute, white-knuckled the next and nearly in tears the next. I wish I could tell you more. What I can tell you is run out and get this book, because you don't want to be late for Book 2. Seventeen Stars.

Read ARC for Review but purchased both books as well it's that good!!


The entire thing is brilliantly crafted. So much, and I mean SO MUCH happened in less than 400 pages of a book and I was immensely satisfied. Suspenseful from start to finish, I was sure to have felt all the possible emotions while reading it. And that mind blowing cliffhanger left me 100% shook.
I love love the diversity of the characters - I just could not express it enough, the back and forth of the events because they were flawlessly told, the unexpected twists and turns, the chaos of it all, everything, just everything. I'm sure to be counting the days for Pivot Line. So glad it's coming soon!!!
