Fall (Seaside series) #4 By Rachel Van Dyken



If you look up British in the dictionary…A-list celebrity Jamie Jaymeson’s name would be next to it. Along with charming, witty, man-whore, and a lot of other adjectives that he wouldn’t appreciate being attached to his name. 
He has everything in the world going for him. 
Until fate decides his number’s finally up. 
Caught in a compromising position that really wasn’t his fault to begin with (really it wasn’t)—Jaymeson’s been told by his agent to lay low in the one town he swore he’d never return to—the seventh circle of hell, known by its residents as Seaside, Oregon. 
Two months? He can do anything for two months. Especially if it means getting a part in the new book-to-movie series that has girls all over the world swooning. 
Play nice? Keep it in his pants? Please. He played an alien once—he was going to totally rock it. 
Until a certain someone who he may or may not have publicly humiliated—rejected, then humiliated again, suddenly pops up next door. 
Self control has a way of flying out the window when the one girl you can’t have—is suddenly dangled right in front of you. 
But Priscilla isn’t just off limits—she’s a pastor's daughter and barely legal to boot. So Jaymeson does the one thing he swore he’d never do—he tries to be friends. With a woman. 
Only, it’s exactly what he needs. 
Until suddenly, he craves more. 
He wants to date her. 
She wants to date someone else. 
He wants to kiss her. 
She asks him to give her lessons for her new boyfriend. 
When opposites attract, sometimes the only option you have is to leap—and trust the fact that when you fall—that special someone falls too.


I wasn't expecting to enjoy this one as much as I did. Rachel still managed to make this hilariously funny and entertaining. Only Jaymeson could make this book the way it is. 
I loved him from the beginning. 
Only he could fall in love with a good church girl. 
He was sweet, and funny and so entertaining when it came to his jealous streak. 
Without spoiling anything the two live next to each other after a fire breaks out at Priscilla's home, and in the morning they both walk out onto the balcony and scream when they see each other. It may not seem funny for people reading this review, but I pictured the scene so clearly in my head that I couldn't stop laughing about it for a while. 

Then we have the whole pretending to be someone else thing he had going on, just so he could selfishly stay in her life. I found this really cute and sweet. I really loved her as a character, and loved the chemistry between the two. 

Another fantastic read from the seaside series. 
This one will have you laughing, wishing for more, and having you flooding in tears. 
Yes! you heard me. Tears. This has an emotional ending, and I sobbed until my eyes and chest stung.
