Born To Fall by Brittany Anne – Review by Crystal Jimmo

Born to Fall (Can't Resist You, #2)Born to Fall by Brittany Anne
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When I first started out reading this book I was a little apprehensive. The first book was good but I didn’t much care for it. But holy cow!!! This author really knocked it out of the park with book two, I am throughly impressed. I feel like even though it’s about two different people in this book, it wrapped some things from the first book! You can see the passion she put into her pages so much that they stand out, they don’t fall flat and the world becomes much more fleshed out than the first book. I highly, highly suggest you read the first one before reading this one. It picks up where the first book left off. I’m really proud of how far this author has come!!!

Can I just say…. WOW! I was introduced to Derek and Julia in book 1. Born to Fall book 2 is their story. I really enjoyed watching Julia’s character grow and too see just how patient Derek was with her. The author did an amazing job. The details made it super easy to create moving pictures in my mind. It was as if I was watching the story in my mind. There was a perfect balance of love, lust, rage, sorrow. Can’t wait for book 3 and the next couples story.

This story is a wonderful continuation of the series. Chock full of emotion, action, lies, and so much more. Just like the first book it has a lovely love story that develops as the characters try to change the world around them. I highly recommend this for lovers of dystopian stories.

If you thought book one was good, this is better!
There is now hope, how is it possible?
In a time of pain and heartache, this author rips you back into this world with Julia and Derek and doesn’t disappoint.
Freedom.
This was an easy read if you have the time your done before you know it asking for more.
If I didn’t know any better I would think this world was real.
The characters become a part of you and you just want to escape into this book and hold them tight.
Derek is my favorite and he is truly a leading man.
Five stars all the way around, can’t wait for book three.
This is giving you adventure, chaos & romance with cover art that is so enticing you want to read it to find out the story.
Hang in there Julia there is more to your story and I’m here for it.
A true page turner.

Just when you think you know an author and what to expect, especially after just finishing the first books, BAMMM she slaps you upside the head and says pay attention.
I was not expecting to love this book so much.
I gave the first book in the series 4 stars because I felt there was something lacking in the story. Well this one definitely makes up for it.
The characters are superbly written and the story development is so good.
I really appreciate that the author elevated the story to where it is now.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When I read a dystopian type book I expect action, suspense, drama and one heck of a good world builder. Brittany Anne deliveres on every single expectation! It was so easy to get lost in the world she created and connect with her characters. I felt all the emotions. All of them! There is just something about romance in a fallen world amidst literal chaos that gets me. Hopeless romantic? Yes. Which is why I enjoyed this so much! Perhaps even more than the first book. If you want to give this a read I highly suggest starting with the first though! Once again, Brittany Anne, you nailed it.

This is the second book in a series, a post apocalyptic series following the leaders of the Resistance. Here, we are following the story of Derek. Derek was determined to never fall in love, but he found something irresistible in the woman he rescued. Julia was kidnapped and held hostage and has had many scars, both mental and physical. I enjoyed watching Julia overcome her past and learn to trust again. She tries very hard to grow and trust Derek. Derek has to try hard to be patient with her and not scare Julia away. This was a sweet love story amidst fighting to free people, mystery in the community around them, and dealing with a fallen world.

This book is 2nd in the series, and I was super excited to read this book. I highly recommend reading book 1 first in the series in order to get to know the characters and background. You meet Derek and Julia in book one so I was very excited for book 2 about their characters. I love that the Derek and Julia captured my heartstrings. Derek is all about saving others and is part of the Resistance. One of the people that Derek saves is Julia and he is totally drawn to her. Julia has been through a lot and back and I could never imagine myself what she went through. As Derek and Julia grow closer, so do their feelings. Can they both overcome their fears and love but make sure the Resistance is safe?

The world as we know it in this book is just so dark, technology no longer exits and just how people are treated. This is such a great book that is mysterious, action and intensity along with some great moments of chemistry between Derek and Julia and I am so looking forward to book 3!!                    5 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I read this book so fast. Instantly hooked and stayed that way the entire time! I don’t even think I took breaks to eat. I had to know what was happening. I’ve loved both books in this series. I really enjoyed getting to understand more of what their community looked like. The details were great, and it helped me imagine what this “world” would look like.

This was my first ever apocalyptic read and I enjoyed it. I’m beginning to love books written in the style this book is written in. It’s dual perception but not separated by chapters. The epilogue definitely leaves you on a cliff hanger but there is a warning. This was the first book of this series that I read so I’m planning on reading books 1 & 3 next!

Brittany has got me hooked on this series! The development of the characters is just mind-blowing. Each book is original, unpredictable, enthralling, action-packed, fast-paced and entangled in off-the-chart chemistry. Having read Book 1- I like that I could pick up right where I left off, no need to worry, each book can be read as a standalone; however, I encourage you to read Book 1, Born to Fight to keep abreast of the saga. Born to Fall was a welcoming break from reality. I commend Derek in his patience towards a broken Julia, which added to the novel’s relatability. We’ve all endured some form of brokenness- but when the right person(s) comes along, they give aid to our healing process. I am completely invested in this series- would it be wrong of me to say that I’m highly anticipating Sawyer & Kayla’s story? Kudos to you Brittany, for your brilliant storytelling and for creating stories that captivate your readers. You have my undivided attention. 😊

This is the second book in the series. We meet or get to know more of Derek and Julia. They have a strained relationship. Each fears the other won’t accept them as they are..scars and all. This is filled with ups and downs as they work through their fears and outwardly battle strangers who seem like more. Julia is a wonderful strong female and I loved getting her perspective on things as much as Dereks.

Its been a while since I read book one. Honestly I did not remember much of the story or characters. Once I got into this one and realized it offers snippets of the first I started remembering. I enjoyed how this book offers looks into the brothers possible futures. And seriously if that epilogue is ANYTHING to go by…I cant wait for Hayden and Anna. It should be full of action!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Born To Fall is the 2nd book in the Can’t Resist You series by Brittany Anne. It is a great dystopian romance novel that I enjoyed very much. I had previously read, and enjoyed, the first book Born To Fight and was looking forward to the nest instalment in the story. This book can be read as a stand-alone but I think you’d enjoy it much better if you had read Born To Fight before reading Born To Fall.
Something I rarely comment on when reviewing books is the cover, but I have to say that I’m a sucker for any book that has the gorgeous model Kamil Nizinski on the cover.
In this book we get the story of Derek, one of the resistance leaders and Julia, who he had previously rescued from the UNR. With Derek being so high up in the hierarchy the last thing he needs is the distraction of a woman but he just can’t get Julia out of his head.
I really enjoyed reading Derek and Julia’s story. Julia has suffered badly in the past and trusts no one. However, her rescuer Derek is gradually getting under her skin and she’s not sure how to deal with her feelings. This all makes for an angsty read, something I really enjoy.
The author does a great job of grabbing your attention from the very beginning and with the story being action packed and fast flowing, you really are carried along on Derek and Julia’s journey.
I’m looking forward to reading more from this series.

By Brittany Anne

This is the second book in this series and it is my suggestion that you read book one before diving into this one. After reading the first book I was excited to jump into this one and it was as good if not better than I hoped it would be. In this story we learn more about Derek and Julia. Rain, Hunter and Derek saved Julia from the monster that tortured her and did other unspeakable acts toward her. Derek is very patient with Julia and I love how he takes care of her and helps her realize her strength. I got so engrossed in this book that I read it in one sitting. There is suspense, danger, action, manipulation, romance, and wonderful characters which makes this such a good read. The author does an exceptional job building a world that drew me in and kept me entertained. I highly recommend this book and I can’t wait to read what comes next.

4-stars

Born to Fall completely exceeded my expectations! This is the second book of the Can’t Resist You series, a series that cannot be read out of order, so if you haven’t read book 1, please do so first!

This book, just like the first, was so intense and action-packed. The push and pull of the two main characters, along with the dystopian storyline had me fully captivated the whole way through. As soon as I started it, I knew I was in for a treat, and I ended up reading it in one sitting as all of the detail the author wrote with had me fully immersed in the story and unable to put it down. I also loved the many different POV’s, it made the story feel really well rounded!

If you are looking for your next dystopian read look no further this is the series for you!

Born to Fall (Can't Resist You, #2)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.

A beautifully written dystopian romance series. Born to Fall is book two in the Can’t resist you series by Brittany Anne. This book picks up where book 1 left off except it is focused on Julia and Derek. **Read book 1 first**

Julia has been freed of her enslavement to her husband aka slaver, but her pain and fear still lingers. Derek is one of the leaders of the resistance. He has a lot of responsibility and work to do to help free the brain washed people that lived under the UNR’s rule. However, he is attracted to Julia and he wants to help her. He just doesn’t know if he can. Julia is attracted to Derek too but with the hurt and mistrust that she still has she isn’t sure if it could ever work.

I absolutely loved this book. We got to see more what living in a UNR community looked like and the damage it caused. We get the chance to see Julia in a compelelty different light and we get to know Derek too. This series is chilling because this could be a future realty. It is a what if series and that is terrifying. I cannot wait for book 3

Born to Fall is the second book in the Can’t Resist You series by Brittany Anne. I freaking loved this book just as much as the first one and I highly recommend reading the first book if you haven’t already. I’m a huge have to read a series in order kind of gal. This author continues to amaze me with her attention to detail and her ability to make you feel as if you are right there with the characters. This is a fast paced story that once you start reading you won’t want to put down till you finish or pass out like I did. I had to know what was going to happen next. This is Derek and Julia’s story ,he has always dreamed of saving the world so that drove him to join the Resistance. She wants no part but that changes once she meets Derek. When faced with a situation can she trust him enough and can she finally move on from her past? I highly recommend reading this to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

Brittany you are killing me. I started reading this morning. I am done. This was so good. I don’t even know where to start with this review. I was anticipating learning more about Kayla and Sawyer. But I’m this story gave me everything I didn’t know I needed about Julia and Derek. First off Derek is so much like his brother Hunter. And I love him for it. Julia and Rain had such similarities (which isn’t a surprise seeing how they were both Alans wives…I mean prisoners) but each had to develop their own strengths and heal their own way.

What the heck is going on with Sawyer? Will we learn more next book? Also my poor Kayla. My heart is so heavy for her.

Anna is such an independent, skilled, woman. A bad mother…shut yo mouth. I cannot wait to dive into her story and her plan. Perfect for Hayden.

I want Hunter to come out of retirement a little. I need to see his dangerous side again.

And the poor older woman who’s name slips my mind at the moment. Ugh I just wanna hug her. Can we get a prequel to the fall?

Also movie and tv execs can I get a show on the CW or something? This would make great tv. Or a great movie franchise.

I hate that I read it so fast cause now I gotta wait so long for more. Ugh! If you’ve read to this point of my review, what are you waiting for read this series! Romance, action, thrills, chills, bump n grid, happy endings, epic cliff hangers, what else do you need?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Seriously, this series has been giving me hard Hunger Game or Divergent vibes, and this second installment just made it that much stronger. Dystopian works of written and cinematic art have always had a soft spot in my heart, mind, and soul, and Brittany Anne has not failed to provide exactly what I look for. From the prologue, to the decision not to read the epilogue, I was immersed in her writing, and absolutely loved how I was better equipped to picture the world in which Derek and Julia are fighting hard to make it a better place.

Overall, these two are soulmates in the craziest of ways, and they come to learn of the inner turmoil that torments them both and allows for their bond to grow even stronger. It is very admirable the way that they can support each other while growing into their own skins, while protecting those they care for and love. They fight for what they believe in, both to protect the Resistance and the people that are currently under their protection, and the ones they want to provide their protection for as well. I felt the emotions come up from the pages, sadness, hope, love, fear, and strength, and didn’t want to put the book down. I loved every moment, and very much look forward to getting to know more about Anna and Hayden in the next installment. Wow, Brittany Anne, wow! Highly recommend.

Derek and Julia made this a book to really enjoy. You will feel almost every feeling there is. They have both had hard pasts and are now doing their parts. Fighting through past history leads to some big challenges that they have to fight through. I enjoyed the action because there was so much going on that the story truly held my attention. It was hard to stop reading when life interrupted me. All the characters feel so three-dimensional. When characters have personalities that you can relate too, it really helps the story. In a small way, I could relate to both Derek and Julia. The plot ran smooth enough that it was easy to stay in story. A few twists and turns made for the final kicker. I’ve loved this series so far. This is book 2 and it was just as intriguing as the first. The ending was a terrific cliffhanger to book 3 (which I will be eagerly awaiting.)

This is a great dystopian read! You don’t have to read book 1 but I highly recommend you do! This book follows Derek and Julia a few months after he carries her out of the prison she was being held in. He’s drawn to her and only wants to protect her. She’s known so much pain and suffered so much betrayal. There’s so much they need to focus on besides what’s budding between them. Can they work through all Julia’s pain and still fight against the UNR? I am not so patiently waiting for book 3 to come out!

I love getting into a series and reading a different point of view for each book. This book followed Derek and Julia’s story. We met them in book one but they weren’t the focus. After the fall the resistance is trying to help the people. They have taken over a UNR compound that has become their new base and their new home. Derek is a resistance leader and the youngest of the “brothers” in charge. Derek saved Julia from the UNR and is still trying to make her feel comfortable and safe in the resistance. Julia is terrified of everything and isn’t sure who she can and cannot trust. The resistance is looking into a town that killed two of their men and learn that their leader is good at hiding the truth. It looks like a great community with caring people and leaders, but is it? This book is action packed with plot twists and turns and there is even some romance thrown in too. It was a great read and I can’t wait until the next one comes out!

4 out of 5 stars

As always, I preface my reviews by saying that you should read books in book order. This is book 2 in the Can’t Resist you Series. This is a science fiction; dystopian romance story and it is beautiful. This story is written in multi-point of view (POV) and adds a deep richness to the story that allows the reader to form a connection to the characters. Julia is a fascinating character that is both well written and beautifully heartbroken. Too many things have broken Julia, and she is scared to let anyone close. Derek wants to be close to Julia, but he has both a job and a duty, and he isn’t sure if he is making the right choice by keeping his distance from her.
This book is for lovers of romance, sci-fi, fantasy, dystopian, military romance, and strong leading characters. A solid 4 out of 5 stars.

Born to Fall (Can't Resist You, #2)Born to Fall by Brittany Anne
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

‘Born to Fall’ is set in the same dystopian world, where America has fallen, the world has gone dark, and all technology is a distant memory, as book one in the series ‘Born to Fight’. I recommend reading them in order as the characters do crossover, and readers will be more familiar with the background to the controlling UNR and the Resistance. It was nice to ‘catch up’ with Hunter and Rain from book one, but this story concentrated on Derek who is part of the Resistance, and who is trying to free people from being slaves and Julia who he helped rescue. Derek had always put his duties to the Resistance first until he finds himself drawn towards Julia, but he worries that if he allows himself to fall in love he can’t still help save the movement. Julia has been through hell and survived but she now finds herself attracted to Derek, the man who literally carried her out of her prison. However, she sees love as being dangerous and is at war with herself about her feelings and her fear of her past being repeated.

The couple have to decide whether to take a chance at love, but will their decision lead to the fall of the Resistance. The dark dystopian world was yet again vividly brought to life by the authors wonderfully descriptive world building which insured I felt totally immersed in the story. The exciting, dangerous, action packed storyline kept me hooked from page one and the characters and the romance kept me happily turning the pages. I found the connections between the characters to be very natural and realistic, and Derek and Julia’s chemistry really came across in the narrative, as did their angst. An engaging read and one which I definitely recommend, and I hope this series continues.
