We have been so excited to share Fear of Falling with you!! We love S.L. Jennings and this book dearly and we hope you love it too!! Release date July 18.
Synopsis
I can’t remember the last time I felt
completely safe. Security seemed more like a luxury to me, reserved for those
who were fortunate enough to have picture perfect childhoods. For those who
didn’t bear the ugly scars that keep me bound in constant, debilitating fear.
I’ve run from that fear my entire life. But when I met him, for once, I
couldn’t run anymore.
He scared the hell out of me in a way that
excited every fibre of my being. It wasn’t the tattoos or the piercings. It
wasn’t the warmth that seemed to radiate from his frame and blanket me whenever
he was near. It was just…him. The scary beautiful man that threatened to alter
23 years of routine and rituals, and make me face my crippling fear.
My name is Kami and I am constantly afraid.
And the thing that scares me the most is the very thing I want.

Sandy B's Review
“Your
fears are not you. Do you hear me? They don't define who you are.” – Blaine Jacobs
“He
had the eyes of a man that had seen things. Eyes that were soulful and wise,
yet vibrant and sultry. Eyes that made me want to run away, yet urged me to
stay.” – Kami Duvall
Fear of Falling is a heart wrecking,
stunning, emotional and finally transformational read. Fasten your seat belts my loves because it’s
gonna be a bumpy ride but holy shit – at the end – you will be as in love with
S.L. Jennings and Fear of Falling as I am!
The subject of abuse and alcoholism are dealt with honestly and
realistically in S.L. Jenning’s latest work.
There were moments that I cringed.
Moments when I cried. Moments
when I had to walk away from the Kindle.
Moments when my heart leapt with joy.
Moments when I laughed. Moments
when I cried. Moments that I lived the
words on the page as if I were physically in the book.
Kami has lived through some pretty
ugly stuff and the scars run deep. Angel
is the poor little rich girl lesbian songstress and Dom is the gorgeous
lothario that sleeps with every woman that crosses his path. These three are damaged but together they are
each other’s hope, each other’s safety and the only source of love they know. UNTIL Blaine
comes into the picture and instantly there is a chemistry that sizzles like
electricity through a live wire. Kami
wants nothing to do with him because she “knows” that no man would want a
messed up girl like her. Not once they
realized the extent of how not normal she is – or so she thinks. Instead Blaine
tells her “I need to know what’s made you so sad. And what I can do to take
away every ounce of that sadness
Check out one of my favorite
passages: “Love. It was the thing that
bound us and tore us apart. It was our disease and the remedy of our shattered
hearts. It was a sonofabitch.” True
dat people!
Kami’s demons are front and
center. Can she triumph over the
fear? The panic attacks? The monster that is her past?
Blaine puts it all
out there. He gambles big that Kami will
learn to trust him. That she will see
the truth of his love for her. That she
will believe that he’s the real deal Holyfield and he’s in it for the long
haul, ride or die – no matter what.
Fear of Falling is a real departure
from S.L. Jenning’s previous work and it certainly was not what I
expected. However, this was so above and
beyond wonderful that I hope and pray her brain is full of more books, many
more books waiting to be written. Those
that are familiar with her work might expect a hero like Dorian. Well Blaine
is NOT Dorian but the truth is you won’t care cause he is fabulous in his own
right.
