The blurb:
Four friends forever… But who will be there to
catch them?
They were best friends at uni. But life was
simpler then.
Fifteen years later Connie, a former journalist,
now struggles to maintain the veneer of a perfect family life. Jonas, her
lawyer husband, is feeling the pressure at work. Personal trainer JJ appears to
have it all, but his past is catching up with him. Their other friend, Layla,
is a psychotherapist, but her career is unravelling thanks to a difficult and
ailing mother.
As the pressure builds, each in their own way
must confront their demons. Sometimes things get too much. Sometimes we stumble
and fall – and pray someone is there to catch us.
A truly powerful and unforgettable story of
love, friendship, and real life, If I Fall is perfect for readers of Alice
Peterson, Amanda Prowse and Lianne Moriarty.
My Opinion:
*Book
provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review*
The book tells the story of four friends, who were
best friends at uni. Now, 15 years later things have changed and life has
caught up with them.
Connie struggles to keep her family together, her
husband Jonas has a lot of pressure at work and things are not easy. Their
marriage is in a bad place. JJ is a personal trainer and seems to have it all,
but his past comes back to haunt him. Layla struggles with work and then there
is also her mother.
All for of them are under a lot of pressure and they
have to find a way to deal with it all.
The book is full of surprises, intensity and emotions.
It covers love, family and friendship. Ella Harper includes difficult topics in
this book and there is a lot of drama included.
The ending of the book was a bit too rushed for me and
the storyline had different dynamics, which stopped the flow.
