The Art of Falling by Melissa Toppen (Archer and Rory )





BLURB

I had a lot of plans entering my senior year of college-- dealing with Archer Copeland in any capacity was most definitely not on that list. The cocky quarterback and I have been at odds since last year when he posed naked for one of my art classes. Okay, so he was wearing a towel, but really, that barely even counts. Apparently, he enjoyed how uncomfortable the whole situation made me and decided that messing with me was his new favorite past time.

Fast forward to now.

My art professor has just assigned us a two-week project that we have to partner with a volunteer from the football team to complete. And of course, Archer being the a-hole that he is, thinks he’ll have a good laugh by giving me no choice but to partner with him. After all, who says no to the guy who took our losing team all the way to the championship game in a single season?

I’ll tell you who… No one.

Well, except for me. I seem to be the only person on campus not completely enamored by his good looks and incredible talent. Simply put, I have bigger things to focus on- like landing an internship for one of the most prestigious design firms in the country. And no one, not even Archer Copeland, is going to get in my way.

Problem is, Archer is a hard man to say no to. Especially when he has you pinned to a wall, kissing you like you’re the freshest damn water he’s ever tasted and he’s seconds away from dying of dehydration.

Yeah, I think it’s safe to say things just got a little complicated.

GIVEAWAY

I received a complimentary early release e-book prior to release and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This story takes place in college and in the story, we meet Rory and Archer and their friends. This is a college sports romance and is a hate to love or frenemy story.

Archer is a BIG football star, and he falls hard for Rory when they meet but he fights it very hard and in doing so he also makes her hate him. But he also cannot stay away, and they share friends. 

Meanwhile Rory is an art student, and she is very determined to attend college and follow her dreams. She wants nothing to do with a jerk like Archer, that is until they end up doing this very cool art project and really get to know each other.

The truth is Archer and Rory have very different interests, but they are also very much alike. They have HUGE dreams and they both have sacrificed to make that happen. And when Archer lets Rory in, well it was a really a beautiful part of this story. And when Rory really opens her eyes and heart to Archer it really made this story.

There are a few hiccups along the way and Archer was a huge IDIOT, but I liked that he realizes this pretty fast. I LOVED that Rory makes him work for her forgiveness. These two shared a really amazing love story and I totally adored both characters and watching them fall for each other.
