Fall Line (Ricochet Ridge) by Jillian D. Wray


FALL LINE the second book of the RICOCHET RIDGE series and is a coach and athlete snowboard romance.


From the blurb:

THE HIGHER THE RISK—THE SWEETER THE REWARD

In a world where the rules are iron-clad, the only thing more dangerous than the mountain is falling for the man who abandoned it.

CONNOR I was once at the top of the snowboarding world until one traumatic night took everything from me. Five years later, I’m offered a lifeline: return to the circuit as the head coach for the only boarder talented enough to rival my own legacy—the reckless, cocky, and undeniably brilliant Vox Montgomery. For me, this isn't just a job; it’s my shot at redemption. But Vox is a magnetic force I can’t resist, and if I can’t keep my hands to myself, I’ll lose this
chance before it even starts.

VOX I’ve spent five years harboring a grudge against my idol. When Connor vanished without a trace, he left a void that fueled my reputation for being as dangerous on the slopes as I am off them. When Connor arrives in Ricochet Ridge as my new head coach, I’m determined to get more than just his professional respect—I want him. The tension between us is a powder keg, forbidden by the iron-clad rules of my sponsor. Grey Patterson forbids staff and athletes from dating, meaning one wrong move could end my career and Connor’s second chance.

THE RACE When Vox finds Connor broken in the snow and finally learns the devastating truth behind his disappearance, the lines between coach and athlete get obliterated. In the high-stakes world of professional snowboarding, Connor and Vox are about to learn that the most dangerous pursuit isn't a first place finish on the mountain—it's the heart of the one person you’re forbidden to touch.

Molly Otto's review:

Vox is one of those characters that you cannot help but adore and his crush on Connor is the sweetest thing ever. With both of their pasts being not great it's no surprise it takes them time to be able to open up and allow the other in. The tension was palpable throughout keeping you on the edge of your seat til they just let their feelings show and take their shot at a future worth fighting for. It was fun to see snowboarding take a key role in their story where you could feel both of their passion for the sport and the dedication it takes to be on top of their game. Both Vox & Connor show an unbridled love of the sport and when they allow each other in their passion takes in their relationship in the same beautiful way. This was my first book from this author and will try more of their future releases.
