Worth the Fall is a family story that will make you swoon. Abby is recently widowed, has four kids under the age of 6, and is pregnant with number five. She is vacationing on a beach in North Carolina, a little respite before baby #5 appears, and to give the kids a little dose of happiness after so much loss. On the beach, she meets Matt. Matt is a Navy SEAL visiting his cousin while recovering from injuries sustained while on a mission. He has one week and certainly didn’t see himself falling for a woman with four little ones and one on the way, but that’s exactly what happens.
Let’s just stop right here and yell a super loud HELL YEAH to a man like Matt that falls for a pregnant mom! Hello, that is a special kind of man and speaks to his character as much if not more than the fact that he’s a freaking Navy SEAL. It’s a beautiful story that will transform you into the human version of the heart eyes emoji, so be ready to swoon. Connor does a great job incorporating the kids into the story without taking away from the growing sensual relationship building between Matt and Abby. She is a woman that’s lost a lot, so the idea of hitching her newly single wagon to a man that literally throws himself into the line of fire regularly, well, it gives her, and the reader pause to say the least!
Again, the more prominent theme of military books can always be related back to the character of our heroes. The inherent desire to serve and, more importantly, protect is strong in these men. It’s a glorious thing to read!
