I absolutely loved Fall for Him! Once I started, I could not put this book down. It’s funny, charming, and deeply relatable. The opening scene is one of the most creative meet-cutes that I’ve read; I love how Dylan fell quite literally. After an apartment flood accidentally caused by Dylan, he seems unlikely to get along with the neighbor below him. Derek is an ER nurse who is trying to hide his friend’s dog at his apartment. Dylan and Derek come to a reluctant truce. Derek will move into Dylan’s apartment while Dylan fixes the damage and keeps quiet about the dog. Comedic shenanigans and sweet romance ensue! 

Andie Burke writes characters with such excellent motivations, depths, and fears. Her characters feel like people that you’d like to be friends with. I appreciate how Burke uses her background as a nurse to educate about the abuse and injustices that nurses deal with. Dylan’s experience with ADHD seemed very genuine and authentic. The sense of humor in this book is very much my type, it almost feels like Gilmore Girls humor. The scene where Dylan’s sister Felicity unexpectedly comes to the house and has the cops called on her by an overzealous neighbor is comedic genius. I hope we get Felicity’s love story! Plus, Gus the dog is adorable. 

Readers who enjoy hilarious dialogue, queer love stories, forced proximity, and lovable characters should check out Fall for Him. I can’t wait for more stories from Andie Burke!
