Perfect for you if...

You love slow-burn tension that's been building for years and want to see it finally explode on the page.
You're drawn to morally grey characters and relationships that blur conventional boundaries without apology.
You enjoy steamy romance with high emotional stakes where the couple's connection feels genuinely dangerous.

Maybe not for you if...

You need your romantic leads to be ethically straightforward or uncomfortable with power imbalances.
You prefer plot-driven stories over intimate character studies focused on desire and obsession.
You want romance that stays light; this gets dark, possessive, and deliberately provocative.

About this book

The first book in the Breathless trilogy, now marking its 10th Anniversary, follows Gabe Hamilton and Mia Crestwell as they act on long-held attraction. When Gabe sees Mia at his hotel's grand opening, he recognizes an opportunity to pursue her—despite being his best friend's sister and fourteen years her senior. Mia, now an adult, has harbored her own feelings for Gabe and decides to embrace her desires. As Gabe draws Mia into his world, she discovers aspects of him she didn't know and learns how demanding he can be. Their relationship becomes intense and obsessive. What begins as a secret sexual affair deepens into something more serious, putting them at risk of exposure and vulnerable to betrayal neither anticipated.
