'FALLING' is a love story in which the couple has to fight their way into each other's hearts. DeAndra Blake was very much in love with the Honorable Judge Damon Kessler however her love was not reciprocated. After attending the wedding of Imani, the love of Damon's life, DeAndra realizes that Damon would never love her with the same intensity. Although she had been in love with Damon since she was fifteen years old, she knew falling out of love would not be easy. So, she began her life over in a different city hoping to get over her love for Damon. When our hero and heroine end up in the same city two years after their emotional parting, old and new feelings for one another start to surface. Damon finds himself in Chicago because of a mystery stalker, and he literally comes to the aid of DeAndra. Their need for each other brings the couple together for more than safety, but will they actually fall in love again? 'FALLING' is the first novel I've read by Natalie Dunbar. It is a little slow and way too short. Because it is so short I didn't get to 'bond' with the characters. The plot although somewhat believable, it is quite predictable, perhaps because it is so predictable the story came off a little dull. The relationship between Damon and DeAndra is bittersweet. It had some steamy love scenes, some mystery and suspense, and it had the potential to be a great romance, but it just fell short between the pages.
