Description: The Fastest Way to Fall by Denise Williams "The perfect feel-good read."—Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author of People We Meet on VacationBritta didnt plan on falling for her personal trainer, and Wes didnt plan on Britta. Plans change and its unclear if love, career, or both will meet them at the finish line. Britta Colby works for a lifestyle website, and when tasked to write about her experience with a hot new body-positive fitness app that includes personal coaching, she knows its a major opportunity to prove she should write for the site full-time. As CEO of the FitMi Fitness app, Wes Lawson finally has the financial security he grew up without, but despite his success, his floundering love life and complicated family situation leaves him feeling isolated and unfulfilled. He decides to get back to what he loves—coaching. Brittas his first new client and they click immediately. As weeks pass, shes surprised at how much she enjoys experimenting with her exercise routine. Hes surprised at how much he looks forward to talking to her every day. They convince themselves their attraction is harmless, but when they start working out in person, Wes and Britta find it increasingly challenging to deny their chemistry and maintain a professional distance. Wes isnt supposed to be training clients, much less meeting with them, and Brittas credibility will be sunk if the lifestyle site finds out shes practically dating the fitness coach shes reviewing. Walking away from each other is the smartest thing to do, but running side by side feels like the start of something big.
