Breaking up is hard to do.

It's even harder when you're not expecting it.

Brooke Jensen is a planner. Not only in her personal life but also professionally as one of the most sought after event planners in Chicago.

But, when the ideal life she built for herself, complete with handsome, long-term boyfriend and perfect apartment crumbles, she realizes there are some things you just can’t plan for.

While trying to start anew from her best friend's guest room and discovering the best doughnuts in the city, an idea sparks to life when she meets Levi. He's intriguing, funny, and shockingly good-looking, and what had been a few stray thoughts becomes a new passion for Brooke, a blog detailing learning how to be single. The project introduces Brooke to new people and experiences, and keeps returning her back to Levi.

But, Brooke learns kismet may have been wrong when she learns Levi is the last person she should be interested in.

Falling for the wrong guy once has Brooke hesitant to start a new relationship, but Levi is quickly proving that The Fallback might be even better.

Christy's 5 Star Review!

The Fallback is a sweet, sexy, and swoony second chance romance and my favorite Mariah Dietz book to date! This book seriously had the perfect hero, and I loved the heroine as well. A definite must read and my first 5 star of the year!

Brooke is a wedding planner and her job consumes much of her life, but she's the best of the best. She's had the same best friend for forever and had been dating the same guy for quite some time. Her life is pretty predictable. Until it all comes crashing down. After catching her boyfriend cheating on her, she packs up all her stuff and moves in with her best friend and her family. She's working on herself and that's that. Until she meets Levi.

Brooke is not ready to date, but Levi is there and he's gorgeous, sweet, and completely irresistible. Just one date won't hurt, right? Soon after that date, she finds Levi to be more unattainable that she originally thought. Still, he's persistent. During all this, Brooke is working on this new blog about being single and trying new things. This is one of the best parts of the book. I loved watching Brooke come out of her shell and try new things. And Levi was right there, along for the ride. He's determined to wear her down.

Levi is like this enigma. I know we shouldn’t be together. I’ve known it from the beginning, and yet the harder I try to fight it, the more I want him.

Brooke and Levi were both amazing characters. I mean... LEVI! He was the best. There was nothing I didn't love about this guy. Brooke had so much strength and character. I loved her, too. I wanted this couple together so badly, but understood why it took time. Brooke is finding herself after the recent ending of a long term relationship, and Levi is a bit off limits because of her job. The slow build up made it all the sweeter, though. Aside from Levi and Brooke, I loved Brooke's bestie. We all need friends like that and I'm lucky I have one. Also, Levi's mom was pretty great. She definitely grew on me!

I really love Dietz writing style. It always pulls me in. This story was a delicious slow burn. It was a gorgeous romance, but so much more than that. It was a book about finding yourself, only accepting the life you deserve, and moving forward. This book was not only a great love story, but a wonderful story of friendship and self growth. I truly loved it and recommend to all lovers of romance!
