She might as well live in an ivory tower.I made my living with my fists. I doubt she could even throw a punch.Our paths never should have crossed.We never … punch.
Our paths never should have crossed.
We never should have met.
That doesn’t change the facts.

Burn in hell to have a single night.
Scarlett Priest shouldn’t even know men like me exist, but sometimes temptation is stronger than will.
If this is how I go down, it’ll be worth every second of the fall.

This Legend didn’t fall, he flew high! 4 stars
I loved the way Meghan March started this book, and I am not saying more about that except you have to read it! I loved Scarlett right away; she does have b@lls of steel and I adored her for it! I got a little frustrated with her for a bit, but then she won me over again! Gabriel Legend, you intrigued and captivated me from the beginning, just like Scarlett. They had instant chemistry, and I couldn’t read the pages fast enough to see how it would unfold. What unfolded was a slow burn, but when they did connect again, fireworks! That’s when the story really flew high for me. On a side note, I loved Scarlett’s friends! I can’t wait to see what happens with Scarlett and Gabriel in the next book!
I received a copy of this ebook from the author for my honest review.
I’ve read most of Ms. Meghan March’s trilogies, and I know I have yet to read the rest of the installment in this series… but I already know, deep down, this trilogy will be friggin’ epic.
I indulged myself in the world of Gabriel Legend and Scarlett Priest… Normally I’m a “standalone” girl, but there’s just something about a Meghan March trilogy…
The ending broke my heart. I was like, nnnoooo! Just when it’s finally getting so good… lol
I can’t wait to read what happens next to Gabe and Scar… I’m definitely looking forward to book two!

Gabriel Legend stole my heart from the moment he was first introduced. There is just something different about him that draws me in and leaves me wanting more of his story. He left his past behind and is trying to make a better life for himself. Scarlett Priest grew up in high society, being the center of attention and with everyone’s eyes watching her every move. Gabe and Scarlett are from two very different backgrounds, but they are drawn to each other.
I LOVED the chemistry between Gabriel and Scarlett. It was explosive from the beginning and completely addicting. Gabriel may be the alpha male, but Scarlett isn’t afraid to go after what she wants when it comes to him. She pursues him from the start and it only takes so much before Gabriel is giving in.
This is book one of three and there is plenty of background provided and the foundation is laid for the future. I am completely hooked on this story and I can’t wait to see where it goes. Not to mention, Meghan is seriously the Queen of epic cliffhangers and this one was truly fantastic. The Fall of Legend is a MUST READ!
Imagine having a social following so large that your entire life is under a microscope. That is the reality that Scarlett Priest knows all too well. With a thriving business that keeps on growing, Scarlett has little time for her personal life. In spite of the dedication and hard work that Scarlett puts into her business, there is always a looming cloud of uncertainty hovering about. There are days when going through the motions becomes the norm.
An unexpected ‘meeting’ between Scarlet and Gabriel will have interesting consequences. Gabriel is the brains behind the infamous nightclub – Legend. A string of circumstances have left Gabriel scrambling to keep his business afloat. A gamble leads Gabriel to proposition Scarlett for a little help getting the social scene attracted to the club once more. With a bargain that certainly can backfire, Gabriel puts the fate of his club in the hands of someone he doesn’t know. Will Scarlett be the key to a renewed success?
The Fall of Legend is the latest release by Meghan March. It is the first installment in the Legend Trilogy. When readers are introduced to Scarlett and Gabriel – it is with a bit of ‘excitement’ and creativity. The two are immediately attracted to one another, but their introduction is less than stellar. A series of events will set their paths on the same course, yet the two can’t help but respond to the heat that is so obviously brewing.
Scarlett is not your typical heroine. With an empire that is culminated on her keen eye, Scarlett is the pillar of what is trending on the social scene. Everything about Scarlett’s life revolves around her shop, but things are not quite as they seem from the outside looking within. In fact – Scarlett is dealing with her own set of struggles that are threatening to bring her down. Meeting Gabriel has ignited a fire within Scarlett’s soul that she thought sizzled out long ago.
Gabriel Legend definitely has a past. It is sordid and mysterious. Everything that has led the anomaly to operating a club has been balanced on the mistakes from the past. Now that Gabriel has crossed paths with Scarlett, the former boxer can’t quite seem to get the beauty out of his mind. With the fate of his club resting in the hands of a socialite, Gabriel can’t help but worry about the past and present colliding. Will Gabriel find a way to ignore the fire that Scarlett ignites whenever their paths cross?
There is definitely more to Gabriel than meets the eye. What are the secrets that threaten to undo the legacy that Gabriel is trying to build? Only time will tell where the journey will lead, but there is definitely a lot more to Gabriel Legend than meets the eye. Scarlett has her own struggles to overcome, and I definitely am rooting for her to succeed where her business ventures are dominating. A strong start to an interesting storyline!!
Meghan March has created a niche for herself in crafting dark, dangerous, alpha male Hot Heroes. She is GOOD at it!
In Gabriel Legend, though, she has the dark, dangerous, alpha male Hot Hero who begins the book in a state of vulnerability, and I am here for that. I fell hard for Gabriel, and I wanted Scarlett to be worthy of him. She is, to a degree, but as tends to happen to me when I’m reading Meghan March’s books, I find fault with the heroine because I want the absolute best for the hero.
The cliffhanger is made a little easier by knowing that you don’t have to wait too terribly long for the next book. The waiting will be excruciating because I want to know NOW. And then I realize there are two more books to come, and I want to hack Meghan March’s computer so I get answers.
I loved Gabriel. I really liked Scarlett. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.
Legend and Scarlett pulled me in from the moment I opened the book!!! I wish I had the whole series right now so I could binge every single word!!! Legend has a story, and it seems like a sad one, one he blames himself for. Scarlett is fun, feisty, but holds back on what she really wants due to her image and what she “thinks” she should be. These characters are so interesting and intriguing, I need to know everything about them. The mystery behind Legend is killing me, in the best way possible!!! Meghan has done it again. She is an epic storyteller!!!!
The Fall of Legend is book one in the new Legend Trilogy from Meghan March. I absolutely couldn’t wait to read Legends story after seeing the hot cover and let me tell you, Meghan did not disappoint! Legend is one hundred percent alpha. He doesn’t have the best upbringing and but is trying to build a better life for himself. Scarlett is a super strong willed female lead. They meet by accident and their story really takes off. I cannot wait for House of Scarlett!!
Gabriel and Scarlett are forbidden fruit in each others world!!! Lana~White Hot Reads
Gabriel and Scarlett come from different worlds but realize there is something between them. Gabriel tries to fight it while Scarlett wants to pursue it. Sparks fly with explosive sexual chemistry but can it last. I can’t wait for the next book.
This is the first book in Meghan March’s Legend Trilogy. It mostly sets the scene for the coming books in this trilogy. We get the background story for both Gabriel Legend and Scarlett Priest, as well as all the other cast of characters. We first see Gabriel Legend in the Dirty Mafia Duet. I have been hoping he’d get his book, and here we are!
It starts off exciting and takes us on a journey full of danger, secrets, lies, and sexy times. I loved Gabriel and Scarlett together. They are complete opposites & come from different worlds, but together they sizzle. The other characters add character and depth to the story as well.
There is a cliffhanger at the end. It isn’t a OMG, holy cow cliffhanger (like some of her other books) but it definitely leaves me intrigued & wanting more. I am totally invested in this story line, and can’t wait to see what happens next. I know it will be worth the wait because Meghan March slays romantic suspense!
***ARC generously provided in exchange for an honest review.***
Oh…My… The Queen of cliffies has done it again! You will meet and love Gabe and Scarlett in this first part of their trilogy. Gage has a dark past that is catching up to him and Scarlett is from money with daddy issues. They meet in a very unorthodox way. You’ll have to read it to know how! Loved it can’t wait for book 2.
I have to say I am very intrigued by Gabriel Legend. We got the tiniest of glimpses of him in Meghan’s book, White Knight, so I knew he was going to be someone who had a tale to tell.
Scarlett Priest is someone who lives her whole life on Social Media, creating an empire that helps others showcase their best social media presence too. But her life isn’t as perfect as she portrays it to the world.
Gabriel Legend is someone who doesn’t have a social media presence at all, except for those videos of him on Youtube that showcase what a fierce fighter he is. He doesn’t want anyone to see him, his sole focus on saving his new club from closing. He needs Scarlett’s status in the media to help his club rise from the ashes.
These two people shouldn’t have even met with how completely different they are, but one misguided attempt by his friend Bump to help Legend and the two are thrown together. The attraction is instantaneous but both realize nothing can come of it. Until their thoughts of each other turn to slightly obsessive and like two magnets, they can’t stay away from each other.
I really enjoyed this first book in the trilogy. I love the tidbits of background Meghan is laying out on Legend, where he came from, what happened in his past, why he is so driven to see this club succeed. I liked seeing the side of Scarlett that the public doesn’t see, but I haven’t quite warmed up to her just yet. She’s got some challenges that she’s struggling with, and I am very interested to see how those play out and how she handles those situations.
There is an amazing cast of secondary characters that are contributing to the story and I can’t wait to learn more about each of them as well. As usual, Meghan hits us with a cliffhanger, although I will say this one isn’t one of those pull your hair out, dying for the next book kind. But I still can’t wait to see what happens next!!
Sometimes I hate really cliffhanger books because you’ll always like what going to happen next and this was getting to be so good that now I have to wait for the new book to come out that’s how I feel about this book but I can never complain to much because I love this book can not wait tell the next book
***5 Stars***
And I’m all in once again.
Not that is any surprise since I do tend to fall down the rabbit hole with this particular author in one way or another, but from the first page to the last I was hooked and am definitely looking forward to seeing all the crazy that Legend and Scarlett will not only put themselves through, but be put through by others, to get their HEA.
So, this is a trilogy which means we only get a taste of what’s to come, but what I can say is that I loved Legend and Scarlett. (Though I wanted to reach into the kindle many times in the first half of the book and shake some sense into Scarlett ~ but thankfully that urge faded in the last half) Both are so much more than they appear to be on the surface and despite their difference in social status, they have quite a few similar traits that make it easy to see how they could have more if given the chance. The chemistry between them is hot and I loved how they started to get to know each in the book.
Now, this is a trilogy and an ending that is definitely not all that satisfying. It isn’t an OMFG type of ending, at least IMHO, but it is one that definitely has me looking forward to the next chapter in their journey. There are quite a few issues both are dealing with, so I’m quite interested in seeing which ones will become roadblocks in their journey and which ones won’t. And then there are all the newbies we get to meet in this baby. I’m loving Kelsey, Monroe and Harlow and hoping to get more of Zoe as well. Then there’s Q, Bo, Bump and a few others who have peaked my interest as well and I’m looking forward to getting to know them all a lot better in the next two installments!

Meghan March has done it again. She’s hooked me.
Gabriel Legend was such an interesting character. He’s a strong, alpha male, yet we see more of his vulnerability, struggles, and how he seems to have the weight of the world on his shoulders.
Scarlet Priest was a wonderful complement to Gabe. Towards the beginning it seemed like she was this perfect façade waiting for her father’s approval. And she just continued to grow and evolve until she decided to live life for herself. The tables seem to be turned here, and for once we have a Heroine pursuing the Hero.
And of course Gabe runs scared – his past still haunting him. But have no fear, dear reader, this is only their beginning. Full of suspense, angst, and emotion, The Fall of Legend is a perfect start to the Legend Trilogy.
NO SPOILERS!
The Fall of Legend was beyond EPIC and Meghan March killed it with the first installment of the Legend Trilogy! I freaking LOVED the storyline and characters, as well as March’s addicting and easy to read writing style. The Legend Trilogy is sure to be a MUST READ from Meghan March!
The storyline was fantastic and I loved it even more than I hoped I would. The plot was incredibly unique and so unexpected in a lot of ways, but it was even better than I thought it’d be. It was sexy, fast-paced, utterly addicting, and full of twists and turns. It definitely left me craving for more, and I can’t wait to get my hands on book two, House of Scarlett.
The characters were phenomenal and even better than I imagined. Gabriel Legend and Scarlett Priest were EVERYTHING, and I loved them with all my heart. They were incredibly lovable and had wonderful and extremely likable personalities. The chemistry between them was HOT, and I enjoyed how their relationship progressed in book one. Gabriel and Scarlett have been two of my favorite Meghan March characters so far, and I can’t wait to continue their amazing story in the books to come.
The Fall of Legend was a sexy, intriguing, fast-paced, utterly addicting, and EPIC start to the Legend Trilogy, and it is not to be missed! Meghan March outdid herself with the first part of Gabriel and Scarlett’s story, and I can’t wait to devour House of Scarlett in December!
The Fall of Legend by Meghan March is the sensual, explosive and intense beginning of The Legend Trilogy. Gabriel Legend and Scarlet Priest would set your kindle on fire with their slowly burning yet blazing hot chemistry. The story line has intrigued me from the first chapter with a heady mix of danger, secrets and adrenaline rush.
Scarlet and Gabriel’s worlds could not be further apart. Scarlet, the daughter of a business tycoon and celebrity super model is a successful business owner herself. And a socialite and celebrity on her own rights. Gabriel is from the wrong side of the track with his bad boy underground fighter reputation. Their worlds collide when Gabriel almost coerced her to help his newly opened nightclub Legend back to popularity. His everything is riding on success of this club as he is trying to build a legal future for himself and his friends. And Scarlet finds herself attracted to this dangerous and enigmatic man more and more. Her life is going to change. For better or for worse, that is the million dollar question!
Scarlet may be one of my most favorite Meghan March heroine. She is absolutely sweet and adorable who wants to make everyone happy. But she has a strong backbone. And as the story progresses, it comes into play more often. Gabriel has switched on something in her and she is taking chance and making impulsive decisions. The girl craving for her father’s attention and eage to make everyone satisfied is gone. In her place we have this seductress, temptress and a freaking goddess. She is tackling life head on. And Gabriel Legend is a man worthy of the gamble.
Meghan March has tapped into my weakness. He is inside out alpha male with life and body of an warrior. He has vulnerability and broken pieces hidden behind his piercing blue eyes. The author portrayed his torture and inner struggle perfectly as he tries to resist the burning desire and craving for Scarlet. The story shows us glimpses of why he cannot be with her. But the nuclear hot chemistry refuses to wane. Scarlet fills up the darkness of his souls and makes him hope. And that ending left my jaws dropping to the floor. I want to kill Legend for that stupid move. And I need next book ASAP to know how he will redeem himself. Their chemistry is built oh so slowly and deliciously but I had the nagging feeling that something terrible is going to happen. And a special shout out to the terrible trio of Scarlet’s friends! These girls pumped awesome humor and witty fun in the tense story. And I think it was really unique about this book.
The Fall of Legend by Meghan March is a breathtaking beginning of what I feel would be one epic story! The captivating characters, stunning story line and Meghan’s flawless writing came together to create another blockbuster entertainer.
Received ARC for Honest review
Scarlett is the ultimate socialite. Everything she does is in the news. Imagine her surprise, or not, when she wakes up rolled in a rug after being kidnapped off the street. She knows there are threats against her but she’s refused all security. She ends up in the office of Legend, the newest club that is going under due to a shooting on the grand opening.
Gabriel Legend had no idea his stating that Scarlett Priest could help his club would cause his friend to kidnap her! While trying to make sure they all don’t go to jail for this, he strikes a deal with Scarlett to help his club.
This deal starts an obsession they both shouldn’t have. They are from totally different backgrounds. He used to be part of illegal cage fights, and she’s always had everything she could want but an actual relationship with her dad.
The chemistry between Scarlett and Gabriel is hot! You find yourself really pulling for these two to give in to the attraction. There’s always obstacles in the way. Scarlett’s ex, the possible threats to her, the definite threats to Legend, and the difference in their socioeconomic statuses stand in their way.
I can’t wait to read the rest of the trilogy to see how these two handle all their differences and if they can get out of their own heads!

Well Meghan March sure does start this new trilogy off with a bang!!!
The Fall of Legend is the first book in this new trilogy and I have to say, it is off to a great start!!
This was an informational first book. What I mean by that, is that we really get to know both Gabriel Legend and Scarlett Priest. As well as all the other cast of characters I am sure we will see throughout the trilogy. We get some of Gabriel’s background, but I have a feeling there is more to it. As well we get to see the kind of lifestyle that Scarlett is brought up in.
This is truly an opposites attract story. What I did notice being different from Meghan’s other books, is that I loved Gabriel right from the start. He seemed almost vulnerable and tenderhearted, but also has a dangerous side to him. Usually it takes me some time to warm up to Meghan’s Heroes, but not with Gabriel. We also see Scarlett being more of the pursuer in this story. I loved her strong and independent self. Their chemistry is off the charts HOT!!!
That’s really all I want to say about this book. This storyline, just like all Meghan’s storylines, needs to unfold by themselves and readers should just go into this book blind. This book will draw you in right from the start and won’t let go, even after the last word.
Knowing this is a trilogy, you have to know that there is a cliffhanger at the end of the book. I didn’t find it as jaw dropping as some of hers in the past, but I know it left me wanting MORE!!!!
If you are a fan of Meghan’s books, then you will definitely want to meet Scarlett and Gabriel. They are shaping up to be one of my favorite Meghan March couples. If you aren’t a fan of cliffhangers, then you might want to wait for the next book to release, but I can say this cliffy isn’t that bad.
Gahh!
Meghan March really knows how to write a cliffhanger.
Everytime i read a Meghan March book i fall in love with the characters instantly, when we first see Gabe in White Knight i was interested in his story so i couldn’t wait till i could get my hands on this baby.
I really liked Scarlett, at first i was a bit on the fence but she proved herself to be stronger than i thought.
Gabe was bloody swoon worthy, a guy from a completely different world to Scarlett but he just can’t stop himself from thinking about her.
I loved how the story got my attention straight away since it kinda starts off with a bang 😉
I loved Bump, he was quirky and had no filter but you let him off with some of the things he comes out with.
I can’t wait for the next book to come out!
Get ready for Gabriel Legend!
Legend…..Falls
Wow, another amazing story by Meghan March that is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat and completely enthralledLegend and Scarlett cross paths in the most unexpected of ways and change both of their lives in ways neither could’ve predicted. But the story isn’t over yet This trilogy should definitely be added to your TBR list if it isn’t already
Thank you to Meghan for my advanced copy for which I voluntarily leave my honest review
