OMGEEE! I did not think I could love this series any more, then K.K. Allen creates this piece of brilliance. The Trouble with Gravity captivated me from start to finish with its fantastic writing and its well developed storyline. I fell in love with this story. This series is so unlike anything I've ever read and I for one can’t get enough of it. Each new couple steals my heart and I'm always immersed in their stories, together in this fantastic dance world. I’d be more than happy if K. K. Allen could keep writing in this magnificent dance world forever.
I honestly LOVED Kai and Sebastian so hard. Their story was unique, it was refreshing and most of all it was beautiful. Although their physical connection sizzled, it was their mental connection that blew me away. They were both dealing with some old scars that had never healed, but together they were able to help each other heal and move forward. I loved that it didn't happen quickly, but that it spanned the course of this story. They were just wonderful together and the emotion in this story was incredible. And it was so great to be reunited with the past couples and seeing them so happy together still.
As ever, the interactive links to dance videos only added essence and enhanced my enjoyment of this read. I felt I was living through the performances and it help me get into the vibe of the story.
K.K. Allen proves once again her talent with words and weaving a story that touches and resonates with her readers. The Trouble with Gravity was a beautiful, poignant read and I could not recommend it enough.

Once again, I swear KK Allen will throw everything at you with all the feels and the raw emotions. The Trouble with Gravity will break you and mend you and everything in between! The push and pull between Kai and Sebastian is beyond brilliant. My heart broke with both of these because of how tragic and emotional their history is but it also was put back together as these two grow together.
The one thing I really loved about this story is while it is fictional, it feels so real. Like these two are really happening. It was like a fluid motion of a film or a tv show. My mind was blown at how stunning the depth of this story is. The one thing I adore about Allen’s work is the depth of the research she has put into her stories.
Overall, this is a brilliant addition to the Gravity series. Honestly, I cannot say too much because I HATE SPOILERS! This is one of those books you will have to just read and wrap yourself up into the world that Allen has to created. You will not be disappointed!

This book brought back the DANCE! Enemies to Lovers is my favorite. The snarky banter, the tension between characters. I love it all. The prologue angst reeled me in and I was hooked. Kai was a strong female lead and Sebastian was a great bad boy star. Their chemistry was palpable and the best part of the book was when Seb was in AWE of her dancing. He knew that he had met a star and he couldn't let her go no matter how many reasons there were to do just that. With her past, it was understandable why Kai wouldn't want to get on a boat, I don't know if I would either, but she faced her fears and Sebastian was right there with her. I would have liked a little more drama and angst, but the story was so sweet and loving. As bad as Sebastian was, he felt like a sweet teddy bear to me at the end. He was loyal and let nothing stand in the way of him and Kai.

Tested waters, big rewards
I've read a few of this authors works. And one of the things I love about this series she's done is the true portrayal of a dancers life and how beautiful the body moves can be all inspiring. Many of the dancers she linked in the videos, I've taken class with and are truly amazing. It's a rare thing to see a musical out there without the actors singing the songs. I would love to see something like this in person. I will say that my heart was broken in the prologue and took a bit to embrace the banter with Kai and Sebastian. But their chemistry that was built was great to read and I really enjoyed how they both pushed each other. Good book!

I think I fly through this book so fast that it felt so short.
I liked Kai's character. She has been through some really rough times but stays strong and keeps chasing her dreams. Sebastian comes across as a jerk, I mean I get that he's guarded because he has been betrayed before. But he shouldn't have treated Kai the way he did at first. I felt like Kai should have held out longer before she get together with Sebastian. And how they get together felt a little bit abrupt.
I have loved this entire series so far so I'm hoping this is a one-off for me. This really was a good addition to her series, but it just wasn't my favorite.

I was given an ARC of this book for an honest review.
KK Allen has done it yet again with the Trouble of Gravity. This enemies to lovers standalone novel is part of the Gravity series and is probably my favorite one to date. Kai and Sebastian are everything.
From the very beginning, you are roped in to Kai’s backstory, watching as she continues to pick herself up, no matter what life throws her way. And then there comes Sebastian and all of his angst and turmoil from his own past, and when their paths collide, its volatile and explosive in a way that is unmatched in any way.
At first, you really want to hate Sebastian but as the book goes on, you can’t help but fall for him. He is everything that Kai never knew she needed, and she is everything he never thought he would need after what happened to him.
The links throughout the book to the dances that are performed are breathtaking and gorgeous. Only KK Allen can deliver a book that gives just as good as it gets. I was blown away by every performance she featured. It is probably one of my favorite things about her books.
All in all, Sebastian and Kai will have you melting as their chemistry and character dynamic is off the chart. You can’t lose when you read this book.
Five beautiful stars for this gorgeous read!

K.K. Allen write pure poetry when it comes to the Gravity Dance characters. This was so fun to read and you really felt Kai and Sebastian’s characters and stories. Loved this so much.
