| # | Title | Published | Author | Buy on Amazon |

Allison Buccola has two standalone novels to her name so far, and since each tells its own story, you can read them in either order. Catch Her When She Falls came first in 2022, and The Ascent followed three years later in 2025.
With a gap of three years between releases, Buccola takes her time between books. Both titles have a certain tension to them, suggesting stories with suspense or psychological weight. If you are new to her work, Catch Her When She Falls is the natural starting point, but The Ascent works just as well on its own.
