This is the third book in the Fall For Me series but this time from Finn Oaks point of view. I advise that if you haven't read the first two stories, Fall for Me & Fall Forever, read those first (in the exact order mentioned) so you know the full drama.One kiss...that's all it took to lose his girlfriend Zoey Jones and best friend Riley. Now Finn Oaks currently sits in a mental hospital because of a fight that took place between him and Riley. Finn's doctor, Dr. Webber, wanted Finn to see the relationship from other people's perspectives in order to leave the hospital. He also has to see Zoey. He knows Zoey isn't coming so he has to think of another way to get out. All of a sudden Sara Taylor, the girl he hasn't seen in 4 years, walks in. Sara is a "church girl" and does a lot for the community. Finn kisses Sara, says she's his girlfriend, and other "doctor mumbo-jumbo". Thanks to Sara, Finn is now at home on his couch depressed, hoping Zoey will come back (even though he knows it won't happen). It wasn't until Sara began helping Finn that he wonders what happened to the bond they had before Zoey. Are old, buried feelings coming to life? If so, what does he do?Finn's Fall is told from many people's point of view in the beginning--Summer, Zoey, and Riley--but mainly from his and Sara's. Now we all know what Finn did was wrong and inexcusable, but reading his side of things actually made me feel bad. Finn is just having a hard time adjusting to things. But once he has, he makes a huge mistake that might make him depressed all over again.Sara felt really bad for Finn so she helped him out and tried to make him feel better. So she does all this stuff with him, but once she hears something, she changes. She becomes confused about her feelings, thoughts, and most of all where she lies with Finn.For some strange reason I never mentioned this, but I appreciate how Melanie Marks includes God in all the stories I've read.This story was amazing! It had my heart fluttering and pounding all at the same time. Finn's Fall is my favorite HS story by Melanie Marks. I hope there's a continuation to this particular story. Excellent Job Melanie Marks!
