I loved this book! Lynn Painter never disappoints. I loved this one it had a prep school vibe and the characters

Well what can I say Lynn Painter has done it again, a great romance for us again. She is by far the most popular author at my school for this genre and I cannot wait to buy a copy for school, it has everything you could want in it.
Julia has to attend a new school in New York to obtain an inheritance and of course it comes with conditions and the boy who thought he would inherit the house they are living in. Just a perfect book
Thank you to Simon and Schuster for the ARC

AND LYNN PAINTER DID IT AGAIN!!! Trust Fall was a whole experience 🥹🍂 This book made me laugh, blush, cry, and feel like I was living in New York AND Nebraska during autumn, made me fall in love with these places I've never been to, the people I've never met. I’m never recovering from these characters 🧡

It was an absolute delight from start to finish. Damion and Julia had incredible chemistry, and their banter had me smiling constantly. I especially loved Damion’s growth throughout the story, his banters and teasing remarks, Julia’s relatable anxiety representation and her adorable little antics, and the way Lynn Painter made every side character feel memorable and loved, especially Remi.. The New York and autumn atmosphere was beautifully written, and the emotional moments genuinely moved me. This was funny, heartfelt, romantic, and ultimately a story about love, grief, healing, and finding home in the people around you.

It was adorable that Remi was always present throughout the whole book. The story follows Julia and her family that receive a inheritance. Damien being Remi's family is disappointed when he finds out. The setting in new York and Nebraska was really good. Damion starts as Julia's tutor and realises it's not all as it seemed. This book highlights bullying part was really heartbreaking. Overall I had a great time reading their story.

Ahhhh, this was so good!!!

Lynn Painter’s YA books are such a breath of fresh air, and I always devour them - Trust Fall was no exception.

This was honestly everything I could want in a YA book, and I loved our main two characters and their dynamic.

And I know the story and setting are full of clichés but, please, give them all to me!!!!!

Welcome to New York, where Lynn Painter delivers a beautiful story that feels like a love letter to New York, especially in the fall. 🍂🍁


Two opposite families. Two completely different people who would have never met without THE INHERITANCE!

Julia’s family lived a quiet little life in Nebraska until one knock on the door changed everything. Suddenly, they’re rich and have inherited a manor on the Upper West Side of New York.

New life, new school, and so many new challenges. Julia finds herself struggling with her math studies, which is where she meets Damion. He’s her tutor—and he’s also the great-nephew of the person they inherited the manor from. Of course, Julia doesn’t know that, but Damion does. And he’s not exactly happy about the situation.

So, Damion starts getting close to Julia, hoping to figure out the truth and find out whether her family somehow tricked his uncle.

But day by day, somewhere between the bickering and the flirting from Damion’s side, things start to shift. He gets to know Julia, and before he knows it, he starts to really like her. And for Julia, her feelings start changing too. Unexpectedly, they begin to fall for each other.

But Julia has been burned before. Can she trust Damion enough to fall in love and give him her heart, or will it end in another heartbreak?

In the world of the rich and elite, a New York prep school, a fancy ball, and an amazing fall setting in New York, Lynn Painter delivers a wonderful YA romance that will capture your heart from the very first page. 🍂❤️

I just love Lynn's books❤️❤️❤️ she never cease to amaze me with her writing and humour. Julia & Damion's story was interesting from the very first page and I was all in with their lives, and their love story.
Of course reading the book made me wish to see New York in the Fall coz I knw that it will be spectacular.

All in all, it was a great read and I'm very grateful to have read it early on.
Thanks so much to @netgalley and the publisher for granting me an arc of #trustfall in exchange for my honest review.

Xoxo😘

I don't know how she does it! but Lynn Painter writes the most wonderful ya books that just stay with you long after reading!

I loved the whole premise of the story, I will admit I wasn't too sure about Damion to begin with but he really turned it around. Julia was such a wonderful character and she went through so much with the bullying and just feeling out of place in her own world. I won't say anymore so as not to spoil it!

Just a wonderful amazing story yet again!

This has everything in that my teen loves. It’s set in autumn, it’s rags to riches, living in New York City and enemies to lovers. The bonus is that it’s a good story too.

It has all the usual romance tropes and you know how the story will go but that doesn’t matter. There are some deeper moments as the story revolves around events brought about by the death of a person that meant different things to the two main characters Julia and Damion.

Overall though, it’s a fun read. Great banter between the two leads, some interesting side characters and situations and a mainly satisfying ending.

I didn’t expect to like this this much!
Lynn Painter has been one of my favorite writer of romantic comedies for a long time, and my favorite was the first one I read : better than the movies!
But now it is most definitely Trust Fall!

It had everything I love and more, autumn vibes, such sweet characters, slow burn and “I’m addicted to you” kind of mmc!

The storyline was original, it’s not something you’ve never seen, but it’s clearly rare enough

But what I loved the most about this book was the chemistry between the two main characters!! Such a great combo and I always love a good sweet girl/rebel guy romance.

If I had to say something, it would be how Liam, Julia’s brother, forgave Damion was too quickly for me.
But that’s just a little thing that made me think « oh that was fast »
Julia has a great spark and she showed it till the end I love that

Thank you NetGalley and Lynn Painter for the arc 🥰 loved every second of this book
