By all accounts, Abby Holden has it all. She's the mother of a beautiful teenager and the wife of a beloved high school football coach. And all it took to achieve her charmed life was her greatest act of betrayal.
Coach Ryan can coax his team to victory, but he can't seem to make his wife, Abby, happy. Her struggles with depression have marred their marriage and taken a toll on their daughter, Juliana. Although this isn't the life he's dreamed of, he's determined to heal the rifts in his family.

For the first time in seventeen years, a trio of once-inseparable friends find themselves confronting past loves, hurts, and the rapid rush of a current that still pulls them together....
Members Reviews:
Outstanding book (no spoilers review)
Would you consider the audio edition of Where We Fall to be better than the print version?
The characterizations are voiced to near perfection. I have not read the print version.
What other book might you compare Where We Fall to and why?
Somewhat similar to On Golden Pond, Terms of Endearment, Rebel Without a Cause, Ordinary People...... any good drama with human flaws and poignancy. The author has created a good story with compelling characters. It resonates with authenticity and is destined for accolades.
Have you listened to any of the narratorss other performances before? How does this one compare?
I love Kate Rudd's narration and that is one of the reasons I chose this title. The other narrators perform extremely well and support their characters such that you feel you can "know" them (the characters). To me a great read is one where you can lose yourself in both the story and the characters. This is one of those reads.
Who was the most memorable character of Where We Fall and why?
I'm not going to call out one specific character. I will say that those readers who are psychologically minded will immediately recognize some common diagnosis in several characters......;)
Any additional comments?
Again, this is an excellent read. The only parts I "didn't like" were because I didn't like the character: NOT because of poor writing, but because it was so WELL WRITTEN that I wanted to cringe.
Where we fall
Any additional comments?
This book was just OK for me. The narration was great but the story was a little predictable.
So so
The mans southern accent was too drawling while others were just normal, not southern at all yet the premise was these three people grew up together in the south.
The author "cured" someone almost overnight. Not believable at all. It was like she got tired of writing so she just made it all better, really fast.
Where we fall
Very good read about lessons learned from past mistakes. The suspense of what was going to happen in the end had me fighting to stay awake to finish the book ..
Great summer read!
Perfect book for summer reading-- enjoyable plot that moved at a nice pace with interesting characters that revealed their stories throughout. Definitely recommend!
