Born to Fall (Can’t Resist You – Book 2) by Brittany Anne – Review by Erica Shoebridge

Born to Fall by Brittany Anne
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Derek and Julia have an intricate romance, that has more substance than other, more whimsical romance stories. Julia’s history of abuse and torture make her falling in love with Derek complex and fraught with her growth as a character. She comes to realize the depth of her feelings for him, but her emotional and psychological health is still healing from her imprisonment. Her past associations with sex are non-consensual and shame-filled. Because of this, her reaching for him often is two steps forward, one step back. Luckily for her, Derek is supremely supportive of her, and doesn’t seem to mind her tentative steps toward him. This romance, set in a post-apocalyptic world where revolution is rolling makes it even more emotionally fraught. Julia must come to terms with her fears and learn to stand up and fight for what matters to her. Everyone’s safety may be hinging on it.
