Don't Fall
Release Date: 2014
Swoon Romance
Summary from Goodreads::
In which a teenage girl endures the over-protective love of her adoptive mother until she falls for a boy who has her wanting to spread her wings, pitched as a contemporary retelling of RAPUNZEL.
Seventeen-year-old Anya leads a very secluded life in a house on the edge of town with her adopted mother. She doesn't go to school, but instead has a private tutor. Her over-protective mom keeps her so sheltered that she doesn't even have a best friend.
But Anya doesn't seem to mind. She has her books, her photography, and her daydreams, and would do anything to please her mom. Until one day at the library, the only place she's allowed to go, she takes a picture of a beautiful boy.
Before long she's lying to her mom, and sneaking out late at night to meet Zander. But Zander wants more than a secret romance. If Anya wants to be with the boy of her dreams, she will have to risk her relationship with the only other person she's ever cared about.

Post - Covers}
Thank
you so much for being part of the blog tour, and having me today! I’m going to
talk about how we ended up with the cover for Don’t Fall.
First
of all, covers are one of the best parts of being published. For real. Getting
to see something beautiful that captures the mood of your story, and has your
name on it, is pretty great.
For
Don’t Fall, Georgia McBride and I decided to do a cover contest. The entries
came to me first and it was so much fun seeing them come in. There were a lot
of beautiful ones. A lot of very creative, unique ones. And a few odd ball
ones. Lol.
From
there Georgia, and Mandy, my editor, and I all picked our own favorites and
eventually narrowed it down to the top three. This was not easy! Then those
three covers all got splashed all over the blogosphere and people voted. I
honestly really liked all three covers, and didn’t try to influence the voters,
but this cover was my favorite.
I
loved it the first time I saw it in my inbox, and I’m glad the voters agreed! I
see this as Anya letting go of her fears, her restrictions, the burdens she’s
put on herself. It’s a beautiful, free falling sort of moment.
