The Fall Risk, Abby Jimenez

Writer: Michelle GreyMichelle Grey


Story Blurb

It’s Valentine’s Day weekend, and Charlotte and Seth are not looking for romance. Armed with emotional-support bear spray, Charlotte is in self-imposed isolation and on guard from men. Having a stalker can do that to a person’s nerves. Just across the hall and giving off woodsy vibes is Seth, a recently divorced arborist. As in today recently. Heights, he’s fine with. Trust? Not so much. But when disaster traps them one flight up and no way down, an outrageously precarious predicament forces a tree-loving guy and a rattled girl next door to embrace their captivity. Soon their defenses are breaking away. Considering how close they both are to the edge, Charlotte and Seth could be in danger of falling—in love.


My Thoughts/Opinion

I will read absolutely anything Abby Jimenez writes. Rabidly. I was in between series when I saw this little gem pop up and I latched onto it. It was a quick short story read with relatable characters and, in traditional Abby style, some heavy topics handled with compassion and grace. The premise was fun, if a bit unrealistic but I'm telling you I don't even care. I loved Charlotte and Seth and their unlikely romance was just what I needed.


Favorite Quote:

“It was Sunday. Valentine’s Day. I’d never cared for this holiday. It always seemed like an excuse to spend money. Today it felt like an excuse to make Charlotte smile, which meant I was now a fan.”
