Don't Fall by Rachel Schieffelbein
Release Date: 2014
Swoon Romance
Synopsis:
In which a teenage girl endures the over-protective love of her adoptive mother until she falls for a boy who has her wanting to spread her wings, pitched as a contemporary retelling of RAPUNZEL.
Seventeen-year-old Anya leads a very secluded life in a house on the edge of town with her adopted mother. She doesn't go to school, but instead has a private tutor. Her over-protective mom keeps her so sheltered that she doesn't even have a best friend.
But Anya doesn't seem to mind. She has her books, her photography, and her daydreams, and would do anything to please her mom. Until one day at the library, the only place she's allowed to go, she takes a picture of a beautiful boy.
Before long she's lying to her mom, and sneaking out late at night to meet Zander. But Zander wants more than a secret romance. If Anya wants to be with the boy of her dreams, she will have to risk her relationship with the only other person she's ever cared about.
Guest Post: Don't Fall Playlist
First of all, thank you so much for having me on your blog! Today I'm going to share some songs from my DON'T FALL playlist.
At the beginning of the book there are some lyrics from the song Don't Catch Me by The Gravities. Here are a few of them:
Defeat
my plight with your delight.
And
when you shine you shine the brightest,
and
all I can give back is my best.
I love this song. I love the idea of how someone else's joy can bring out your own. Anya lives a fairly grey, joyless life until she meets Zander. He helps to bring out the best in her, and her happiness reflects back on him, too.
Another song I listened to a lot when I needed some good lovey dovey inspiration was Can't Take My Eyes Off of You by Lady Antebellum. This song is really beautiful, and romantic, and I hope some of that inspiration shines through in the book.
