Synopsis
Muerte. A ella le da miedo. Él, en cambio, ha tenido que acostumbrarse. Para una chica valiente y encantadora como Mackenzie, con dos superamigos como Will y Holden, resulta bastante extraño el temor que ahora le provoca la cercanía de Jaden... Este, tras la trágica muerte de sus padres, tampoco entiende el cambio de actitud de todos los que lo rodean, incluida ella. Quizá lo que asusta sea perder lo que más te importa. O tal vez el amor y la amistad sean dos trenes a punto de colisionar... ¿Vale la pena arriesgarse? Vuelve Estelle Maskame, la autora de la exitosa serie YOU, con su novela más romántica. Dare to Fall is the story of MacKenzie and Jaden: their tragedies, their families and their friends and their relationship.
Kenzie has separated herself from Jaden (her boyfriend) and Danielle (her best friend) after the death of their parents because she doesn't know how to treat them. The story picks up a year after this tragedy, and Kenzie is still avoiding them. It's hard to understand this at first: Kenzie seems selfish and I found myself shouting "it's not about you" at various points. Later, we come to learn that there is more to it than this, that Kenzie is dealing with her own grief, or rather, struggling to acknowledge her own grief.
Grief is a big theme of this book: everyone in the book is grieving differently and the author writes about it all beautifully.
Jaden and Kenzie meet by chance when Kenzie is trying to buy cheap alcohol for her mum, and this sparks an attempt to rebuild their relationship which becomes a huge focus of the book. Along the way, Kenzie learns to deal with her own grief and that of those around her. Everyone is forced to face up to their actions and it makes for a really interesting story with some jaw dropping moments.
