He’s got to save his career— and himself

Hitting rock bottom has landed country star Boone Williams in the middle of his worst nightmare: a recording studio on a horse therapy farm hours away from Nashville. He has no interest in dealing with his problems or writing a new album. And he’s definitely not interested in the gorgeous, feisty mom of one of Helping Hooves’s young clients. She doesn’t even know who he is! But his record label is one tabloid story from cutting him loose, and Boone can’t seem to turn around without bumping into Ruby and her daughter, Violet. Clearly, Boone’s not going to get what he wants. Could Ruby be just what he needs?

You know, it just occurred to me that I've been recommending this book to friends for years, but I've never left a review. Shame on me! I love "Small Town" and "Country" stories, but this one is much more. It combines the two with the starry glitz of fame and those who fall from it. I love Amy Vastine's writing. It's so natural and just plain good. I've read several of her books, but this one just stuck with me. It's an easy read, but the story is obviously hard to forget.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely loved 'Catch a Fallen Star'

This is the best book I've read in ages! So even though I hate writing reviews, here I am trying to think of words that will express just how wonderful this story is. Boone, Ruby and Violet are portrayed so realistically they feel like real people. It is so much more than a romance, and it definitely warms your heart. Such a talented writer is going on my auto- buy list. I hope she continues the series with perhaps Sawyer's or Jesse's stories.
And thank you for not adding any boring, unnecessary padding to stretch the story that I always skip. I didn't find one superfluous sentence in the whole book ;-)

4.0 out of 5 stars It's never too late to say you're sorry...
Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2016
This is the second book in the series, but can definitely stand alone. I didn't read Book 1 and I never felt lost, as it follows the story of a different character. Boone is a big country music star who has let his career and addiction come before his family. After hitting rock bottom, he's ready to make some changes, but it's hard to prove he's a changed man. Violet is a teen full of angst and sass. She's also getting help with her problems, but for different reasons. A bond that can't be explained is forged between these two and Ruby, Violet's mom, isn't immune to Boone's charms either.

The author does a great job of using the characters to show each other both sides to the story. Absent fathers and salty teenage girls, using their saucy personalities to cover their hurt, prevail in this book. I love the way deep and painful soul searching occurs. As a mother of a teenage girl, I know how fragile relationships can be and how things are said that aren't always meant. This is a difficult time and with other hard situations, life can very challenging indeed and it's hard to navigate alone. I don't know why things often click when someone else, aside from parents, gives advice, but those relationships are an important part of growth. Boone and Violet have a great bond that rooted into my heart. I love their banter, teasing, and the ways they help each other through the ups and downs of life. Mary Ellen, the nosy neighbor, is a great side character and one who made me laugh.

Of course, a romance wouldn't be a romance without the...romance. Boone and Ruby have a great chemistry together, but I would have like to see a few more sparks before they recognize what they are blessed with. Their relationship follows a natural course, full of insecurities, triumphs, and fighting against their feelings. I could almost taste their joys and sorrows, which shows good writing. Overall, this is a book full of emotion and one that is enjoyable from start to finish.

Content: talk of past addictions; mild romance.

5.0 out of 5 stars funny & sweet & romantic
Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2016
Amy Vastine is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. I thoroughly enjoyed the first book in the Grace Note Records series, The Girl He Used to Love, but I think I loved Catch a Fallen Star even more.

Ruby’s teenage daughter Violet is sarcastically hilarious – when teamed up with Boone, the combination had me laughing nearly every time they shared a scene. OR they had me teary-eyed. They were sweet and funny together, and the perfect father-figure/daughter-figure duo. Ruby made an ideal foil for the two of them, and Jesse the social-worker-turned-horse-trainer rounded out the mix with his thoughtful questions and advice.

Catch a Fallen Star takes an honest look at addiction and its effects on families. Boone’s struggles felt real and honest, his attempts at reconciliation with his daughter heart-twisting. There aren’t pat answers or easy escapes, and Vastine doesn’t give any. Instead, she shows a man fighting against the power of addiction and the consequences of his alcoholism.

And Boone … Boone has some of the greatest swoony lines. Lines like “What I wouldn’t give to be what you needed” and “Never apologize for coming to find me” and *fan* “Sometimes being bad isn’t so bad“. Ruby has a few too, but Violet… VIOLET is the winner of today’s prize when it comes to best lines in the book. You’ll just have to discover what I mean by finding a copy of the book for yourself.

Bottom Line: Funny and sweet and romantic, Catch a Fallen Star is more than just a story of two people falling in love. It’s also about family and addiction and recovery and restoration. Toss in a sassy teenager with lots of wisdom in spite of her occasional stupidity and this book becomes a new favorite.

(I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.)
