River Dawson was trouble from the start.
The kind of boy with bruised knuckles, dirty-blond hair, and a reputation that made parents lock their doors at night. Everyone in Crystal Bay swore he’d end up just like his father—violent, reckless, and destined for prison.
But they didn’t know the River I knew.
The boy who sat beside me when nightmares wouldn’t let me sleep.
The one who fought anyone who made me cry.
The one who became my home long before I understood what love was.
After my parents were murdered, Frankie Carson took me in alongside River and Landon. Somewhere between bonfires, stolen secrets, and growing up too fast, River stopped being the boy I fought with…
…and became the boy I couldn’t survive without.
But love doesn’t always save people.
Sometimes it ruins them.
Now years later, I’m drowning in addiction, haunted by the wreckage of who I used to be. And River—the boy who once promised he’d run away with me—is no longer the same person either.
Some loves heal you.
Some loves destroy you.
Ours did both.

Close To Falling is a captivating, second chance romance about tragedy, adolescence and unconditional love. Having witnessed her parent's murder, Maddie's once happy existence is turned upside down. River's father was sentenced to hard time, giving him no other option but to live a life he didn't choose. With both of them tossed into the same foster home, they develop feelings for one another, but Maddie makes poor choices leading to a daily struggle of addiction and River's never been one to follow the rules. He makes a tough decision to help save the girl he loves, but he may be the reason she falls.
Maddie B. Callaway saw tragedy first hand when she was only nine years old. She was tossed around foster care for years, until finally being placed somewhere she could call home. She finds family and love when she never thought she would again, but bad teenage choices take her life down a road full of dependency and a daily struggle of addiction. River Dawson will do anything for his girl. His intentions may be good, but sometimes plans don't work out the way you want them to. River lives life on the edge, with a reckless attitude and a carefree way of thinking, but it's his way of thinking that cost him the one thing that is most valued in this life–-time. She's an addict who's addicted to more than her drug of choice. He's the bad kid, who only wants to make her happy. What will happen when her sickness becomes too heavy and he can no longer help carry the weight? She tries to be better for him, but sometimes the whispers are too strong, even for a love as deep as theirs.

He fostered three kids; River, Landon Davis and me.River and I fought a lot the first few years, but hell, River fought a lot with everyone.

But over time, we grew closer. The bullying didn't fully cease, but it became different. I stopped looking at him as though he was an annoying boy I had to share a house with to something else.
