Catch Us When We Fall

A Novel

De: Juliette Fay

Narrado por: Piper Goodeve

If you love the emotionally complex novels of JoJo Moyes and the dramatic books of Jodi Picoult, you won’t want to miss this newest book about second chances, redemption, and the power of hope from USA Today best-selling author of Shelter Me, Juliette Fay.

On her own since the age of 18, Cass Macklin dated brilliant, troubled Ben McGreavy, convinced he was the smartest person she’d ever known. They partied their way through their 20s, slowly descending into a bleak world of binge-drinking and broken promises, inebriated for most of a decade. Now Ben is dead, and Cass is broke, homeless, scared...and pregnant.

Determined to have a healthy pregnancy and raise Ben’s baby, Cass has to find a way to stop drinking and build a stable life for herself and her child. But with no money, skills, or sober friends or family, the task seems insurmountable. At wit’s end, Cass turns to the only person with the means to help her: Ben’s brother Scott, third basemen for the Boston Red Sox, a man with a temper and problems of his own.

The two make a deal that neither one of them is sure they can live up to. As Cass struggles to take control of her life and to ask for help when she needs it, Scott begins to realize there’s a life for him beyond the baseball diamond.

By turns heartbreaking and humorous, with its message that change is possible, that forgiveness can be freely given, and that life, though imperfect, is worth embracing, Catch Us When We Fall is a story of human connectedness and hope.

This book….

This was such a great listen! I laughed and I cried! It’s one of those books that disappoints you because you know your next listen won’t be as good! I highly recommend this book to EVERYONE!!!

so good I didn't want it to end

I loved this book I didn't want it to end I could have had multiple sequels in it and not gotten bored this is a great author

V ery good listen

Highly reccomend, very rellovent in our world today. Very real and good for the soul. love the narrator.

Wonderful!

This book got its hooks in me pretty quickly. I loved Cass and even though I didn’t have her story I could relate to her. I felt like the story was very believable. I will be reading more from this author!

flat performance

I do not like this performance. it's flat. I think I would have enjoyed the story more with a different voice actor.

This book has ALL the feels!

If you love to get deeply invested in a story, and can identify with your imperfect self and/or family members, then this book is for you. The main characters struggle with their demons. There are secondary characters that fold into the story so perfectly. There are years of anger, sadness and happiness. This is a hard story to follow. It'll be hard to find a book this good! 😭

Good read

This story had me pulled in pretty quickly. I stayed interested until the end and enjoyed it.

Ahhhh!!!

Didn’t want it to end. I loved the narration and just everything about this book. I am the product of an alcoholic Father so alcoholism is not new to me or my family but I still learned some info I wasn’t aware of before.
Binged this in 2 days!

Great story

Loved this view into real life scenario with a happy ending
Love the narrators
well read story line

Love the book, can't stand the narrator

This is a well-written and interesting story. The characters are good. The narration was really bad. The narrator made the main character sound like a total air-head. She wasn't. She got herself out of a very bad place and deserved to be portrayed as a strong human being, not a breathy idiot. I listened to an hour, couldn't stand it but wanted to know how it turned out so I read it on my Kindle, instead. Much better choice.
