Catch Us When We Fall

By Juliette Fay

Book Overview

If you love the emotionally complex novels of JoJo Moyes
and the dramatic books of Jodi Picoult, you won't want to miss this newest book
about second chances, redemption, and the power of hope from USA Today
bestselling author of Shelter Me, Juliette Fay.

On her own since the age of eighteen, Cass Macklin dated
brilliant, troubled Ben McGreavy, convinced he was the smartest person she'd
ever known. They partied their way through their twenties, slowly descending
into a bleak world of binge-drinking and broken promises, inebriated for most
of a decade. Now Ben is dead, and Cass is broke, homeless, scared...and pregnant.

Determined to have a healthy pregnancy and raise Ben's baby,
Cass has to find a way to stop drinking and build a stable life for herself and
her child. But with no money, skills, or sober friends or family, the task
seems insurmountable. At wit's end, Cass turns to the only person with the
means to help her: Ben's brother Scott, third basemen for the Boston Red Sox, a
man with a temper and problems of his own.

The two make a deal that neither one of them is sure they can
live up to. As Cass struggles to take control of her life and to ask for help
when she needs it, Scott begins to realize there's a life for him beyond the
baseball diamond.

By
turns heartbreaking and humorous, with its message that change is possible, that forgiveness can be freely given, and that life, though
imperfect, is worth embracing, Catch Us When We Fall is a story of human connectedness and hope.

Another winner from the best!

A wonderful, moving and emotional story about a young woman's struggles with alcohol. 385 pages --I read it in two days. Her characters are vivid and imperfect, just as we all are. I laughed and cried--many times. Don't miss this one or any of her others.She lives in my town!
