So excited Lexi continued this series!. So excited Lexi continued this series! After the first two books in this series, I was hooked, and this book was just as good as the others. Meeting Dean in the previous books, I wasn’t the biggest fan of him because of what he did to Abbi’s brother, but it seems that the group of friends have forgiven him because he was pretty manipulated and continues to do so more openly now. Abbi has always had a crush on her brother’s best friend but being insecure about her weight and other aspects of her life, she never thought it was a possibility. Surprise to her, Dean actually feels the same way about her, but never made a move because of everything that’s happened with him and her brother. When Abbi finally decides to try dating again, Dean volunteers to show her the ropes, and per usual, things get serious, and feelings go wild quickly. I continued to hit my head against the wall over these two not realizing the feelings they had for each other and how they kept fighting the bigger picture of them being together. In the end, things work out for these two after a bunch of back and forth and we see Abbi finally gain the confidence that’s buried inside her and go after everything she wanted, professionally and personally. I loved that Dean was finally about to get out from under Abbi’s brother’s ex-wife and make amends with his insecurities and his family. I can’t wait for the next installment because I love these characters! I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Beautiful Story!. This is such a beautiful love story written by Lexi Ryan. Abbi and Dean have both struggled with insecurities that neither of them have ever talked about. Abbi is a chef who has always wanted to open her own bakery, but doesn’t think she could ever do it. She’s got a great support group in her family and close friends, but her own opinions of herself keep her from being the best version of herself. She’s a curvy girl who’s been mentally beaten down by past relationships and now doubts that anyone could ever truly want to be with her. Especially Dean, who she’s had a crush on since she was a teenager. Dean happens to be her brothers best friend and business partner at their construction company. Abbi has never made her feelings towards Dean known and always thought in her mind that he could never be with someone who looked like her, so their relationship has stayed in the friend zone. Then one day, Dean offers to help Abbi gain confidence in herself, and in the bedroom. Seems simple enough, right? I loved this story. I think all of us suffer from our own insecurities, and seeing how Abbi and Dean learned to face theirs was inspiring. Seeing them both learn to open up and own their true feelings towards themselves and each other. And the passion between them was off the charts!!! Lexi Ryan hit it out of the park with this book. It’s sweet, sexy, and so inspiring. You’re definitely going to want to read this story!

Brother’s Best Friend romance. I absolutely adored this book. Abbi has had a crush on her brothers best friend, Dean, for years. But she thinks he is so hot and wonderful that he’d never fall for a girl like her. A “girl like her” is a little thicker than the girls Dean usually dates. Her being a bigger girl has messed up her self esteem. My heart broke for her. She had one serious boyfriend who was a jerk and messed with her mind and body issues even more than she did on her own. Dean is !ace’s best friends and Stella’s brother. has his own set of issues that Abbi is privy to. Unbeknownst to Abbi, he’s had a crush on her for a long time, but he has felt like he wasn’t good enough for her. I loved how Dean kept trying to show Abbi how beautiful she was. And I was happy to see their friendship turn into more. I was even more happy that Dean didn’t end up with his ex!

Brother’s Best Friend. Loved Abbi and Dean! Abbi is a chef who has dreams of owning her own bakery. Her first crush, Dean, who is her older brother’s best friend, offers to teach her to have confidence in the bedroom in exchange for keeping him away from Amy, a toxic relationship. Can this temporary arrangement lead to some pretty real feelings or will their insecurities lead to a crash and burn? 5 stars

Another page turner!. Loved the previous books in this series and this book did not disappoint. I finished it in one day! Excited to see who’s story we get to read next from Orchard Valley.

Love Abbi and Dean. Stella: “With Abbi, though, you’re up against some pretty thick walls she’s built around herself.” Dean: “I do renovations for a living. Taking down walls is a specialty of mine.” Swooooooon! This book can resonate with anyone who wishes for a happily ever after, but perhaps has a few insecurities to overcome. Us curvy girls, however, may relate just a bit more. No matter how confident you are in other areas of your life, it is easy to feel that someone is attracted to you DESPITE your shortcomings. You can believe they love you for all of these various reasons, but it always in spite of how much you weigh. When you walk into a room you immediately feel like people are judging you, and finding you just a little but less than, on no other basis but weight alone. Abby was very much this girl. Confident in the kitchen. Confident with her friends. But thanks to outright verbally abusive relationship, she was unable to fathom why any guy would want to be with her romantically. Still, she kept trying, sometimes with the worst that dating apps had to offer...until she comes to an agreement with Dean - she will distract him from his romantic entanglements if he can provide some constructive criticism with hers. Everyone wants to be wanted, and Dean is no different. He and Abby have more in common that not. How they navigate these feelings are what makes a Lexi Ryan book so great. Ryan is great at building angst, great at making you FEEL the emotions coming off the page, and great at providing characters with depth and growth along the way. On another note: I absolutely adore this cover. How refreshing to find a model that fits the character description so well. And the colors are so pretty. 😍 Thanks to the author, I was lucky enough to be able to read an advanced copy.

Really good read. I really enjoyed this book, the raw emotions that, I’m gonna be honest, that I’ve felt before in relationships. I like how the author explored the depth of the Abbi character and her insecurities with more than just Dean, with all her friends. We all hold back things in any relationship and it was nice to see that in a character.

Relatable story with many emotions. This is the third book in the “Orchid Valley” series and can be read as a complete standalone. I have not read the first two books or the prequel and felt as if I didn’t miss out on anything. Of course now I know how the first books will turn out, yet I am eager to read them based on how well I liked this one. Written in the first person from dual point of views, this is the story of Abbi and Dean. Abbi is a curvy woman with low self esteem and a lack of confidence in the bedroom thanks to a jerk of an ex boyfriend and a few other guys. Dean is the best friend of Abbi’s older brother and he’s trying to get over an ex hook up. Abbi and Dean come up with a plan where they can help each other but it turns out it’s just not that simple to do. Ms. Ryan does an excellent job of developing the characters so that you are able to relate to them. Whether you are curvy or not, almost everyone lacks some confidence in their love life. While Abbi’s is mainly in regards to her body, Dean lacks confidence as well. His just isn’t related to his body but rather if he can be a good partner or if he’ll cheat like his father. The side characters are wonderful as well, Abbi and Dean have a great group of friends. I like how supportive they are and how all the women are there for Abbi when she needs it. There are some laugh out loud moments and also emotional scenes that may make you want to cry. There is also drama, angst, miscommunication, and some sweet romantic moments. All of this helps make the book relatable. I received a complimentary copy of this book and am voluntarily giving an honest review

Every time I fall. Loved the book. But all of the text messages were over to the side and I couldn’t even read them. I missed a lot of the book that makes me not wanting to buy anymore of the series

I loved it however. I loved it, however I would have loved it even more if there would have been more them together. I feel like they got together to late in the book, but other than that loved it. I would love a follow up to their story

Fantastic. I have yet to read a Lexi Ryan book that I haven’t had to force myself to put down. This one did not disappoint.

Every time I fall!. How many times do girls have a crush on their older brothers friend? So many and this one is such a heartwarming story about just that. Abbi and Dean have been best friends for a long time. Abbi was very happy to at least be his friend but always wanted more for their relationship. But she was on the larger size and thought he would never look at her the way he did other girls. She was wrong!! Dean felt the same way. Neither one acted on what they was unattainable with the other. It’s a heartwarming story of how misconceptions can change when you allow love to step in and take over! It’s a book I just couldn’t put down!!

I wish they’d make these into movies. The more I read Lexi Ryan the more I need to read by Lexi Ryan. This book reminded me a lot of my own love story and I really couldn’t put it down. Ugh so good!

Learning To Love. While I enjoy all of Lexi Ryan's books, I'm going to start out by saying that it was the idea of a 'curvy girl' as the main character that had me adding EVERY TIME I FALL to my TBR. I think that it's important for authors, especially romance authors, to realize that their readers come in many shapes and sizes, and that writing stories that embrace this spectrum can make a serious difference in the reading experience. I both appreciate and applaud Lexi for including this book in the Orchid Valley series, and am glad to have had the opportunity to read this book. As a curvy woman myself, I can attest to the fact that until you see yourself as just as attractive, smart, worthy, what have you, it doesn't matter what others are telling you. While Abbi's self-doubt is understandable, given her past experiences, she is the only one that can get out of her own way and see how amazing she is, and I really appreciate that Dean lays it right out for her, no holds barred. Speaking of Dean, this guy is a serious keeper. Saddled with his own share of issues in the self-worth department, his decision to handle them and move forward to be the kind of person that he wants to be is extremely satisfying. EVERY TIME I FALL is an important addition to both Lexi's catalog, and to the current genre in general, and while I didn't necessarily love Abbi and Dean off the bat, their evolution and growth made this a book that I very much enjoyed, and would happily recommend. As a note, EVERY TIME I FALL can be read as a standalone, but reading the other books in the series will provide some good background. I'm not sure where the series is headed, but I'd love to see more of these characters. And, because Lexi is so good at developing her characters, if anyone can redeem Amy Matthews, she can... ❤️

Sweet and charming read!. 4.5-stars! Every Time I Fall by Lexi Ryan is the third book in the Orchid Valley series and is a sweet and charming brother’s best friend romance. Though this is part of a series, it can be read as a standalone, as each book is about a different interconnected couple. However, I highly recommend reading the series. I absolutely loved Dean and Abbi so much. Dean is one charming and sexy man, but he is also caring and protective. Abbi may not have been confident in who she was, but she was beautiful and I loved watching her find herself. Friends for a long time, neither thought the other would be interested, but little do they know. Their journey started as one friend helping another, but their connection is undeniable. They are both a bit lost but find something unexpected in the other. I loved their story so much and highly recommend it. Happy reading!

Great addition to the series. This is book 3 in the Orchid Valley Series and I was excited to see which direction Ms Ryan was going to take us with Abbi and Dean’s story. This is a slow burn, small town romance that also has its fair share of steamy moments, it’s a captivating brothers best friend romance that will appeal to a wide range of audiences. This couple have a lot of baggage and that makes for a journey with a fair few bumps along the way. Dean may want to help Abbi with her bedroom issues but he needs to get past his own issues before becoming the man she wants and needs. Confidence pays a big part in this story and I found myself hoping and wishing together this couple could grow not only as lovers but also as people and show me the confidence I saw in them. The chemistry is sizzling and this couple are adorable so it was perfect to see them get the happy ever after they so deserved.

Enjoyable. Having read previous books in this series I was interested to see what Lexi Ryan had in store for Abbi and Dean. From start to finish, I was drawn to the story that she wove although there were times that I was a little frustrated by the characters. Abbi and Dean’s road to a happily ever after is rocky to say the least, particularly since both have a great deal of baggage. When Dean offers to help Abbi with her bedroom issues, she has no idea how their relationship is about to change. However Dean also has his own issues to deal with. The fact that both Abbi and Dean have had feelings for one another for quite some time may complicate matters as neither of them really have confidence. I felt at times that the story was fixated on their issues, perhaps a little too much negativity, but that is just my opinion. It was great to see some familiar faces and the chemistry between them sizzled and I was cheering for them to get their happily ever after.
