(Review from the author)
bookshelves: finished-writing

Bully was my love.
Until You was my responsibility.
Rival was my pleasure.

But Falling Away was my destiny.

Every whisper, every breath, every kiss, and every word came from my gut. This is the book I'm most proud of.

Amber Book It Blog I am behind ecstatic about this book! I happen to like KC. Everyone makes mistakes and no one knows what's going on in her head (except penelope)! I'm a little confused as to why so many ppl hate her so much? Jared and Maddoc did bad things to ppl and ppl still love them! I'm just saying give the poor girl a chance and if you can't then just don't read the book. No big deal. But I do hope everyone gives it a chance and loves it!

Khristina I can't wait to read this! I love the idea of Jax and KC. KC is redeemable in my book, can't wait to read her story!!

I am excited to read this books. Can't wait!!!


Jessica I happen to like K.C. as well. There came a moment where I liked her more than Tate. Maybe because I saw myself in K.C. and connected with her character more. Everyone makes mistakes. True friends forgive each other and grow from it. Also, I was so, SO interested in what happens next with Jax in the picture. I feel like the cat and mouse game is going to build up so much sexual tension, both are going to EXPLODE off the pages!

Nathaly Bonilla i want it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!


message 15: by Nanda (new)

Nanda I think I'm one of few people who don't like KC, I think she shouldn't have lied to her friend, aren't they supposed to be best friends?! And I don't believe Jared has completely redeemed himself either, but I'll trust Ms Douglas that I will not be disappointed :D looking forward to it ;) P.S.: I apologize for any grammar mistakes! xoxo from Brazil


Carcrashofaheart I was hoping it'd be Madoc and KC!


message 17: by C.K. (new) - added it

C.K. I'm not a fan of K.C. after reading Bully. One of the big problems I had was that K.C. didn't apologize to Tate in Bully and she acted like she didn't do anything wrong. K.C. just acted like everything was back to normal with her and Tate when is wasn't. I think she needs to gain more of a backbone. However, I do think that K.C. and Jax will make an interesting pairing. I thought that K.C. would be Jax girl. I'm by the pairing and the teasers so far are on fire. I hope to like K.C. more after Fall Away.

Caitlin Audet I too am not the biggest fan of KC but it's cute to put her with "Baby Jared" lol. As you can tell I'm really ready for Madoc and his story.

It should be interesting. I like "baby Jared" aka Jax lol. I think Jax might give K.C. a run for her money. Hopefully I will like K.C. better after their story.


Becky Smouse It's not that I didn't like KC, but what she did. Jared wasn't just a jerk to Tate he hurt her on a regular basis. I don't care what the reason, she did her friend wrong. And I didn't like that she knew Tate would just forgive her and that she got mad at Tate for being mad.

Becky, That was a part of the problem I had with the situation too. You expect something like that from Jared but not K.C. Also, there were plenty of other guys that she could have had her "fun" with and make her ex jealous. It didn't have to be Jared. I think that K.C. was curious to know what it would be like to kiss Jared too. I don't think that it was completely to make her ex jealous. I think she was curious. Also, it made me mad that she never even really apologized or acted like she did anything wrong. I could have taken it better if K.C. would have just apologized and owned up to it properly instead of acting like everything was just a-okay with her and Tate after the whole thing.

Oh no!! Please don't make it the last one....I just cannot get myself to start reading Rival yet, in the fear that once I start, I will finish it in no time, but hope is that KC and Jax is still there to come....but if it is the last one then...:-(


message 28: by Erika (new)

Erika Oh no... it's KC? :( I was so excited for this one because I want to know who'll be the girl for Jax but it turns out it's going to be KC. I mean, I want a good girl for Jax cause he's suffered a lot. Anyway, hoping for the best!

I'm no fan of K.C. I think she was being a lowsy friend to Tate but I don't think she is a bad girl. The whole thing with Jared made her a bad friend to Tate. She was actually a good girlfriend to her cheating ex. boyfriend. K.C.'s boyfriend was the only guy that she even had sex with and she was with him for a while. I think Jax is way more experienced than K.C. I'm sure Jax will be a lot to handle. I hope I like K.C. better after Falling Away.
