Like Gravity

Brooklyn Turner's life was upended at 6 years old when her mother's killer abducted her, but she managed to cause him to crash and foiled his escape.  Fourteen years later, Brooklyn is still struggling with what happened but has held herself together enough to get into college.  When she accidentally trips over a fire hydrant and it carried to the health center by Finn, she wants to hate his arrogance but, at the same time, can't help but be attracted to him.  After several suspicious incidents begin happening to Brooklyn, she can't rule out Finn as a suspect.

Like Gravity is a very predictable new adult romantic suspense story with cliched characters and a simplistic plot.  While there are a few enjoyable moments and some humorous banter, there just isn't anything unique to make this book stand out from countless others with the same premise.  Overall, Like Gravity is a disappointing attempt at romantic suspense.
