Dare To Fall by Brianna Remus 💕 Book Tour & Gift Card Giveaway 💕 (New Adult Romance)



I had everything I'd ever wanted.

But why did it feel like it wasn't enough?

The perfect boyfriend. The perfect friends. A straight shot to the top medical schools in the country. A one-way ticket to the perfect life.

But still, my heart ached for more.

As fate would have it, cracks began to form in the perfect facade I had shielded for so long.

Friendships soured. Love became tainted by betrayal. And the one thing I held onto, the surety of becoming a doctor, was slipping through my fingers from the chaos that swirled through my mind.

It was all falling apart and there was nothing to catch me.

Then he shot into my life, like a cosmic flare, brightening even the darkest of skies. Unveiling the pieces of my soul I thought no longer existed. Showing me the truth of who I really was.

But still, the two sides of me battled -- raging for dominance.

The world I had built for so long had fallen apart, leaving me raw and vulnerable.

I just hoped he would be enough to help me put the pieces back together again. 

Dare to Fall is a sexy new adult college romance filled with angst, self-discovery, and love.

Garth


The air was cooler than it normally was for early fall in Florida. As I navigated through the busy Friday night streets, Eva’s grip around my waist tightened when I sped up and took turns. 

I wasn’t quite sure what prompted me to ask her to come with me, but I was quickly figuring out just how much Eva impacted me. It was out of my control - my need to protect her and the desire to always be around her. 

And when she told me that her douchebag boyfriend was cheating on her, I wanted all her pain to go away. I couldn’t stand seeing her cry, especially because of another man. He didn’t deserve her. That much was clear. I’d never understood why someone would cheat on their partner when the easier option was to end the relationship and move on. 

The conversation with my mother from a few weeks back entered my mind. There were rumors circling the campus of a professor having an affair with a student. It would be really bad press for the university when the news got out and my mother would be tasked with handling the shitstorm. Not to mention, Eva would probably get dragged into it all if she chose to continue dating the guy. 

A knot formed in my stomach at the thought of her going back to him. It wasn’t just that I wanted to see where this could go between her and me. I found it incredibly difficult to think of her stifling her potential and changing her dreams because a man wanted her to. I saw so much of the same struggles I endured with my father in what Eva was facing now. The tug-of-war between pleasing those she cared for and following her heart was exhausting. At some point, one side would lose and she would have to deal with the fallout. 

Depending on the intensity of those around her, the fallout could be catastrophic. Just like it had been with my parents. 

We pulled up to a stoplight and I turned around to see how she was doing. White beams of moonlight shined down, illuminating the auburn strands of her long hair. A deep crimson showed off the perfect pout of her lips. I wanted so badly to tug on her bottom lip between my teeth. And she looked so fucking cute in my helmet as she beamed up at me. 

“Are you having fun?”  

“Yes!” Her breath tickled the back of my neck and I reached down to give her hands a squeeze. 

As the light turned green I put my hands back on the handlebars and revved us onto the highway onramp. Eva squealed as we got up to speed. I felt her arms tighten around my waist as she leaned harder against my back. I let out a shuddering breath at the feel of her supple breasts and tight little body pushed against me. It was almost impossible not to pull over and claim her mouth with my own. 

We sped through the evening traffic as we made our way downtown. Skyscrapers darted toward the night sky. Not a single star twinkled against the luminous lights of the city skyline. It was one of the things I missed most about my childhood home. My parents bought an estate on the outskirts of the city with over fifty acres of land where the only thing that blocked the starlight were summer thunderstorms. 

Taking an exit off the highway, I drove a few blocks into the city to the eighth floor of a parking garage and cut the engine. I offered Eva my hand as she slid off the back seat and unbuckled the helmet. 

She ruffled her fingers through her long hair. It fell in gentle waves down her back. My gaze traced down her body where her feet were strapped into tall heels that made her toned legs look even longer. The curve of her body was accentuated in the tight leather leggings she paired with a tight top and velvet blazer. I swallowed against the dryness of my throat as I tried to hold it together. She was so striking, it took the breath from my lungs. 

“What?” she asked, as she caught me gawking at her. 

“You’re so beautiful Eva.”

Her cheeks flushed, turning a pale pink that gave away all her secrets. Every fiber of my being ached with the need to reach out and touch the softness of her supple skin. The tension was thick in the air between us as I climbed off my motorcycle and walked toward her. 

She didn’t waver as I invaded her space.

“Are you ready?”

“For what?” she breathed as her eyes flickered to my lips. 

“For what I’m about to show you.” 

Her eyes closed as I finally conceded against my will and trailed the tips of my fingers from the side of her cheek down the length of her neck. 

“I…I think so,” she stammered.

I leaned down and whispered into her ear, “I hope you’re not afraid of heights.”

Her eyes shot open, growing wide as saucers. “Umm. How high are we going exactly?”

I grabbed her hand and started walking us toward the main elevator. 

“You’ll see.” I winked at her and she gave my hand a tight squeeze. 

When we got into the elevator I pressed the button for the fiftieth floor and Eva leaned into my side.

“So I guess now is probably a bad time to tell you that I’m really afraid of heights.” I felt a small shudder move through her body, so I pulled her close and wrapped my arms around her. In her heels, she was the perfect height to fit snuggly under my shoulders. Closing my eyes, I breathed in the sweet scent of lilac that wafted up from her hair. It felt so good to feel her this close to me. More than the physical connection that thrummed between us, the closeness enhanced everything I felt to an overwhelming degree. 

I pulled her in just a little bit closer “You seemed pretty afraid of the motorcycle and you were able to overcome that. Just trust yourself Eva. And trust that everything will be okay.”

She turned around in my arms and peered up at me. “Just promise you won’t let go of my hand.”

I reached up to where her hands pressed against my chest and took them in mine. I tilted my head down and pressed a gentle kiss to the top of both her hands. Warmth flooded through me as I watched the honey golden flecks of her chocolate brown eyes brighten. 

The elevator pinged and the doors slid open, revealing a sterile hallway that I knew would lead to the stairwell to the roof. 

“I promise I won’t let go.”

A nervous smile crossed over her face as she sucked in a sharp breath. 

“Okay. Let’s do this.” 

Keeping her hand firmly in mine, I led us down the hallway and up the stairs. I felt her grip tighten a bit when I reached for the door handle. I turned to look at her, making sure she was okay. She gave me a curt nod and wrapped herself around my arm as I pushed open the door. I slowly led her through the doorway and onto the rooftop terrace. My father’s building was one of the tallest in the city. There were a few faint lights that marked different areas of the rooftop. Otherwise we were surrounded by darkness. 

Eva shuddered against me as she wiped her unoccupied palm against her blazer. 

“I’m sorry,” she muttered. “My palms always get sweaty when I’m nervous.” 

“I don’t mind,” I assured her. Pulling her in close to my chest, I rested my hand on the back of her head as she nestled against me. 

“Are you ready to see what I wanted to show you?”

I felt her nod against me. “Yes.” 

“When you’re ready, I want you to look up.” 

A few moments passed while I held her in my arms, patiently waiting for her to make a move. Slowly, she peeled away from me. The absence of her touch was like a cold void, but I wanted her to enjoy this moment without my needs getting in the way. Her beautiful brown eyes tracked up my face, lingering on my lips for a brief second that almost stilled my heart. She tilted her head further back until I saw the moment I was hoping for flash across her face. 

Pure, blissful awe

“Oh my God,” she beamed. “It’s so beautiful!”

I joined her in looking upward toward the night sky. A twinkling blanket of stars laid above us - each one brighter than the next. It had always been my biggest source of inspiration. Thinking of all the colors that made up the elements of galaxies, the bright lights of auroras, and the glowing luminescence of stars sparked even the most dreadful lulls of my creative well. 

But watching Eva’s face light up as she spun around with her hand in mine, taking in the starlit night made my head dizzy with enthusiasm. Something powerful was taking hold of me and she was the anchor, keeping me steady against the strong current. When I was with her, I wanted to be brave. It was stupid and irresponsible given her current state, but I wanted to take a chance with her. To show her every crack in my soul, only so that she’d know she was not alone in the pain she felt.
