About this ebook
New York Times bestselling author Penelope Douglas introduces Quinn, younger sister to Jared, Madoc, and Jaxon, in this captivating novella in the Fall Away series.
Quinn Caruthers has several problems: her father, Jason, and her three older brothers, Jared, Madoc, and Jaxon. Under the close watch of the men in her family, Quinn has found it nearly impossible to spread her wings—or even date—without them jumping in to hover. And when a family friend—several years older—from her childhood captures her heart, she knows they’re going to be a problem.
Lucas Morrow is a man—experienced, sophisticated, and important. And knowing her brothers, he may as well be forbidden. But Lucas left town years ago and shows no signs of returning. Quinn knows she shouldn’t wait for him anymore.
Then a package turns up on her doorstep with no return address and its contents reveal family secrets that threaten to turn Quinn’s world upside down. She’s never asked about the tumultuous path of her parents’ romantic history, but she soon learns their happy marriage had a very rocky and passionate start.
As she begins to see things around her with new eyes, Quinn will have to make tough choices about whether she’ll keep waiting…or finally go after what she really wants.

In the Fall Away series, there are lovers, friends, enemies, and families. There are fights, races, and secrets. Secrets it seems someone has decided secrets don't need to be kept. If you are a fan of the series, you know all about Jared/Tate, Madoc/Fallon, and Jax/Juliet. You are aware of the crazy train that their lives have been. But what about the original drama, what about where it all started... Quinn's mysterious delivery has her on edge. It's disturbing and it's creepy but...it can't be real, right? None of them are really like this...it didn't happen this way?! The feels are there- the unease, the distaste, and the sheer disbelief. There is history and there is the present. They are going to collide in a spectacular way. next to Never gives an eye opening look at the bigger picture and leads into the next round of Fall Away stories.

Why did it have to end this book explained a lot. What to see if Lucas comes back and if him and Quinn gets together. Also a book about what happens with Dylan, Kade, and Hunter, which one would she end up with because Kade treats Dylan the way Jared treated Tate. I you write there stories.
