Title: Afraid to Fall

Author: W. Ferraro

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: October 18, 2014

 Jaded and hardened by the ultimate of betrayals, Clearwater Falls Sheriff Gage Dennison is content with his simple, detached life. With only his loyal dog at his side, Gage has successfully maintained the walls he’s built around his life and heart for eight years. From his secluded house at the end of a private road, to the solitude of a small town sheriff, he has no trouble keeping everyone just where he wants them – at a distance. But Gage soon learns his walls are not as solid as he thought them to be. Despite all his efforts, and against his will, Gage’s new neighbor Delaney Collins threatens to crack his once-impenetrable walls. Unprepared for the constant verbal sparring, and growing physical attraction to Delaney, Gage is suddenly fighting an internal war he never expected. His brain and reason insist he keep his distance, but his body refuses to listen. Especially when the lure of her warm, willing body soothing his bruised and battered soul is too much to resist. As the demons of his past are revealed, will Gage crumble under the weight of his fear? Or will he find the strength necessary to tear down his walls and hold on to the only woman that offers him a second chance at love?

**ARC given in exchange for honest review**

Gage Dennison is the sexy man in uniform who happens to be the sheriff of Clearwater Falls.  He has managed to keep to himself and stay detached from everyone and everything for 8 years.  He has built up walls around his life and heart.  Whether he wants to allow it or not, Delaney Collins is knocking at his door.  There is a constant emotional whiplash between Gage and Delaney.  Gage tries to deny what’s between him and Delaney, but will the physical attraction lure him in?  Will Gage’s past help him see the light or drag him into a dark that he cannot pull himself out of?  Will Delaney be his second chance at true love? 

I fell in love with Gage from the beginning.  He has a strong name that suits him.  He is stubborn, sweet, jealous, possessive, and handsome and loves with his whole heart.  He longs to have the undeniable love his parents have.  After having his heart broken and shattered, will Delaney be able to mend his wounds?  Will she be able to show him how much she wants him?  Will she be able to gain his trust after she reveals the truth about her past? 

The skeletons keep popping out of both of their closets.  Just when you think you have this story figured out.  It has another bump in the road.  This book is part one of a series.  It will not leaving you hanging, I promise.  It will send you on an emotional roller coaster.  I kept telling myself, “I have to finish this; I have to know what’s going to happen whether it’s good, bad or a cliffy.”  I will promise you, It’s not a cliffy and for that very fact, I am giving it 5 stars because I am so happy to finish a book that is part of a series, not to be left hanging and enjoy it all the way through.
