Title: Fall From Grace
Author: Michelle Gross
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: November 1, 2018
Our first goodbye wasn’t our choice.
Our second was…
What do people say about third chances?
I would never forget the moment I met Noah at six years old,
nor would I forget the way I grew into myself next to him; with him.
I didn’t want to forget the way he kissed me for the first time or the way we were two kids pretending it was okay to do adult things.
What I did want to forget was the reason I walked away… and how he had to let me go.
Loving you had a consequence that was too much to bear.
Now I was an empty shell, half of who I was, who I wanted to be…
And I came back home after four long years and this time, I knew you weren’t going to let me go.
I’m afraid… because remembering why I walked away from our love in the first place was the hardest part of all.
But in order for you to understand my relationship with Noah, I have to start from the beginning… Before our love had a price, before they called our love “puppy love”, before I fell from grace…
I was the happiest when I was with him.
Funny how my feet felt like lead the days I left you, Noah… But now that I was back, they only felt like running.
This is a standalone romance that tells Grace and Noah's story starting at age six, but don't let that detour you from reading their story. This is a book meant for adults and deals with mature themes. It's a story about two kids loving each other and proving that maybe when you meet the one, you just know, even if you're a kid.
Michelle is from a small town in Eastern Kentucky where opossums try to blend in with the cats on the porch and bears are likely to chase your pets—this is very true, it happened with her sister’s dog. Despite the extra needed protection for your pets, she loves the mountains she calls home. She has a man and twin girls who are the light of her life and the reason she’s slightly crazy.
As a kid, she was that cousin, that friend, that sister and daughter, the talker who could spin a tale and make-believe into any little thing so it was no surprise when she found love in reading, and figured all these characters inside her head needed an outlet. They wanted to be heard, so she wrote.
The voices keep growing faster than she gets the time to write.
The stories are never going to end. That’s perfectly okay, though. We never want to stop an adventure.

****MY REVIEW *****
This story has all the feels-
its heartwarming, heartbreaking and so very compelling 2nd chance
love story. It's a tale of true love found early in life, that continued to
grow as time passed. The hero, Noah, is the face of love. His feelings for
Grace never went off course or changed. He knew what he wanted, and what he was
willing to do to have Grace’s love, even so far as letting her go when that is
what she needed. To be honest,
this surpasses 2nd chance; it goes on to 3rd or 4th
chance love story. Noah has always loved Grace and he never stopped- in
anything when it pertained to her. When Grace was 6 yrs old, she moved to a new
place, a new home that had this amazing back yard and an awesome tree house. It’s
at the tree house Grace and Noah meet for the first time, and thus began a
friendship and a once in a lifetime kind of love. Not to say their love wasn’t tested
and in this we get a read that follows them until they are grown. Grace had the
good home whereas Noah so didn’t. His family home life was beyond terrible and
so he found his peace, his safe place with Grace when he was 7. They were separated from one another at age
13 and spent time apart for over 4 years but when they meet back up, the connection
and chemistry is still there. There is angst and drama over who wanted Noah and
Grace to be together and the path that Grace took to find her way back to Noah
which very much kept me enthralled. I was praying the HEA would be here for
Grace and Noah and I have to say the author did a fantastic job of making this
a truly remarkable and heartwarming story will all the FEELS. After reading
this book, Ms. Gross will be an automatic buy for me. I very much
recommend this read.
My Rating: 4.6 stars *****

copy of this book from the author at no cost to me."
