I'll read anything from Liz Reinhardt! She writes complex characters, great dialog and she's from NJ (bonus!). I enjoyed Fall Guy so much more than some of her recent stand alones. Maybe one reason is that this is back in the world of Brenna Blixon, although this time centering around Brenna's bestie, Evan Lennox. 
 Evan is in a bad place. She's living with her grandparents, since her parents have completed flaked out. She got kicked out of her high school and is now attending an all girls school - in her senior year. And, to top it off, in an effort to burn a couple of memories of her ex, she ended up burning down an entire orchard! This landed her in court and community service, where she meets Winchester Tobar Youngblood (ok, hate the name, but there is a reason for this - all of his brothers and sisters are named after guns...). Winch (as he is called), has his own share of issues - family issues. He is their Fall Guy. 
 "'You're the fall guy, Winch. You're the guy they come to when no one else will stnad up and take their medicine. And they come to you because you never make them stand up and take it.'" 
 Fall Guy is told in alternate chapters from the alternate POV's from Evan and Winchester. And, I think this not only worked for this novel, but was imperative to understand the complexities of both characters (but particularly Winch, since we have already gotten a look at Evan in Slow Twitch ). 
 It was not until we got to meet Winch's family (about 25% into the book), that we really see this complex guy that has taken way too much on his shoulders, for someone in his early 20's. It broke my heart how much he was given over of himself, in the name of his family. I grew to love his character, and his devotion to Evan. Their relationship is "complicated" and almost forced (which is probably the only criticism I have of the book), but even though both feel like they should not be together, but cannot stay away from each other, eventually this push and pull works for the story. 
 Winch: 
 "'You're tough. And that is so unbelievably attractive. But there's this softness in you, too, and I know it's not a piece of yourself that you put out there for everyone. But I love when I get glimpses of it.'" 
 Evan: 
 "I've always been good at letting go. Free-falling. Opening up and letting everything wash over me. The hard part for me has always been holding on after the fact. Head back, leg tight around him, arms holding him close, I let myself slide and shake into perfection. But when it's over, I have to resist the urge to pull back." 
 These characters are likeable, particularly Winch, and you root for them. I see that the title of this book includes "A Youngblood Book," which leads me to realize that Liz may have some novels in mind for Winch's 4 brothers and sisters - all of which would be interesting. Therefore, I look forward to reading more, Liz.
