༺ 𝐀𝐑𝐂 π‘π„π•πˆπ„π– ༺ Falls Boys (Hellbent, #1) by Penelope Douglas

TITLE: FALLS BOYS
SERIES: HELLBENT #1
AUTHOR: PENELOPE DOUGLAS
GENRE: ROMANCE | NEW ADULT
PUBLICATION:  MARCH 21ST, 2022
SYNOPSIS
“The kids are growing up—different from their parents but the same in so many ways…”

ARO
Hawken Trent. So polite. So sweet. Such an upstanding young man.
A virgin, too, I hear. He never gets naughty with a girl. Probably because Jesus told him not to. And now here he is, trying to be the hero by protecting another girl from me.

He calls me a bully. Irrational. Unreasonable. A criminal. He can call me anything he wants, I’ve heard worse.

And he can try to stand between me and my money, but he’s never had to fight for food. That rich, clean, school boy doesn’t have what it takes.

HAWKE
I surprised her. You should’ve seen her face.

Just because I don’t have a record, honey, doesn’t mean I’m clean. It just means I’m better at not getting caught.

That is until I realize I might’ve actually gone too far this time.

She’s there. I’m there. The scene of the crime.

It’s dark. The police show up.

We have no choice. We run. Down High Street, into Quinn’s bake shop, and I pull her through the entrance to the old speakeasy that everyone forgot was here decades ago.

The door locks, the cops circle the building, never knowing we’re right here, and I’m hidden in plain sight, indefinitely, with someone’s who’s awful.

Mean. Rough. Dirty.

A thief. A delinquent.

Until one night, lost in all of these rooms together, I don’t see any of those things anymore.

She’s smart. Daring. Soft.

Hot...

Everything’s changing. It’s this place. It does something to people.

We have a silly urban legend in Shelburne Falls about mirrors. They’re a gateway.

Don’t lean back into them.

But we came through front first.

I don’t care what the county records say. This was never a speakeasy.

It’s Carnival Tower.

*FALLS BOYS is a standalone New Adult romance suitable for readers 18+. Reading the Falls Away series first is helpful but not necessary.
MY REVIEW

πŸ“š FALLS BOYS : πŸ“š
 Is the first full length romance book in the spin off series (Falls Away) by Penelope Douglas. Spoken in 'Dual Perspectives.' 

Back to Shelburne Falls we go.. 
Where corruption and chaos go hand in hand..

Not long after diving into this the gears started grinding away in the background, making this a high octane read with the drama escalating from the opposing side of town.

Rich vs poor.
The good boy vs the wild girl.
Both worlds collide
Until they have to go into hiding because of one night which changed the course of their lives..

Him always trying to keep the heat off her, to stop trouble finding her or her finding trouble, giving me whiplash the amount of times he became a knight in shinning armour. He captured my heart, she stole my emotions, both obviously from two different sides of the track but once in each others space the differences faded away, they were perfect for each other.

No one has ever had her back until...Him

This held my attention throughout, some utterly compelling unique situations which cemented why I enjoy this author as much as I do, there are a few open/ended paths we're taken down but I'm guessing they are left unresolved as they may be picked up in the next books, this was such a strong start to what I can only imagine is going to be an outstanding series and I am here for the entire ride!!
