Fall to You (Here and Now #2)
Author: Lexi Ryan
Release Date: 2 June 2014
Fall to You is the second book in the Here and Now series. It is not a stand-alone and is intended to be read following Lost in Me. Hanna’s story concludes in book three, All for This.
Torn between two men…
When I woke up after the accident, I couldn’t remember anything from the last year—including my relationship with Max Hallowell or anything about Nate Crane. Now my memories are returning, but instead of answering my questions, they’re leaving me with more.
The man who broke my heart and wants to be my future…
Max is all I ever wanted, and now he wants to marry me. He’ll do everything he can to fill my life with love, family, and security. I need those things now more than ever. But can I trust him?
The man who stole my heart and wants to let me go…
Nate never made me promises, and I never asked him to. I’d been on the rebound, looking for a distraction, and he made me feel beautiful and wanted when I needed to feel those things most. He says he has to let me go, but what if I can’t let go of him?
With every revelation and every passing day, I feel more like Alice down the rabbit hole. I’m falling. Who will catch me?

Excerpt
Three Months before Hanna’s Accident
“I want to introduce you to Nate Crane.”
I lift my head and suddenly I’m
sucking in air because my eyes are connected with the man who flirted with me
earlier. He’d had a hat and sunglasses on in the bar, and I hadn’t recognized
him, but this time his identity is clear.
“Hanna, this is Nate Crane. Nate,
this is Hanna, my sister.”
His eyes sweep over me the way a
guy’s eyes are supposed to sweep over a girl. The way Asher’s eyes sweep over
Maggie every time she enters a room. The way William’s eyes sweep over Cally
when he doesn’t think she’s looking. It sends a little buzz through me that’s
not quite a chill but not quite electric either. Just a nice, warm shimmy of
sensation that starts at my core and radiates out through my limbs.
Then I check behind me because
I’m sure I’m mistaken. He was just playing around at the bar, right? I mean,
guys don’t look at me like that. They look at my sisters like that; they look
at my best friends like that.
“Maggie never told me her sister
was so gorgeous,” Nate says, putting an end to any debate over his attraction
to me.
My cheeks warm with a flush I can
feel all the way from my chest to my hairline.
“Maggie, I did tell you I have a
thing for sweet girls who blush, didn’t I? Is she my birthday present? I’d say
you shouldn’t have, but I’d be lying.” He says all this without taking his eyes
off me. His gaze drifts over me again, slower this time, lingering at my waist,
my hips, my feet in strappy, heeled sandals. “I was a good boy this year. I
deserve her.”
Maggie thumps him in the chest
with the back of her hand. “She’s a woman, not some trinket or object that can
be given.”
“Oh,” he says, his voice so low I
can barely make it out, “I noticed she’s a woman.”
“We met earlier,” I say quickly.
“In the bar. He’s just teasing.”
Maggie huffs. “Deserve or not, you
can’t have her. Hanna has a boyfriend.”
Oh, no. No, Hanna doesn’t. But I didn’t
tell Maggie about Max. It hurt too much to share what I’d learned. I’m too
proud to share it. And if I want to keep our split a secret, I couldn’t really
tell her if I wanted to. I can’t risk telling anyone.
Nate takes my hand, clearly
undeterred by the mention of competition. “Tell me she’s lying. Please? It’s my
birthday tomorrow.”
“And you wanted me to jump out of
a cake for you?” I retort, but I let him play with my fingers and try to keep
my breathing steady. His touch brings back something I didn’t think anyone but
Max could make me feel.
“I wouldn’t complain.”
I’m fresh out of spunk, and stare
stupidly. Nate Crane is six feet some-odd inches of deliciously tatted, freshly
showered rocker. In ripped-up jeans and a Star
Wars tee, he exudes a geekiness that’s only amplified by the tattoos
peeking out from under the sleeves. The rest of him is essentially a catalogue
of every woman’s fantasy. Broad shoulders, narrow hips, shaggy, dark hair still
wet from his shower and curling slightly at the ends. Those intense eyes that
seem to be smiling at me as he follows the lines of my palm with his calloused
fingertips. He hadn’t really been on my radar until this year, when he started
performing with Asher at a lot of his tour stops. They’re old friends,
apparently.
“You didn’t tell me you were a
rock star,” I murmur.
“You didn’t tell me you have a
boyfriend,” he counters.
About the Author
Once a college English professor, I now write full time. I live in rural Indiana, where, when I'm not writing, I get to hang out with my husband and two kids--a six-year-old boy and a two-year-old hellion, er, girl. Not surprisingly, reading and writing remain my favorite activities, though both come in bits and pieces these days, not the big hunks of time I enjoyed before I had children. When I'm feeling virtuous, I like to go running (I use that word liberally. I'm really, really slow) or do yoga. Don't worry, I'm always careful to balance out such activities with a hearty serving of ice cream or a chocolate martini.
