Description

In the first novel in the Breathless trilogy—now celebrating its 10th Anniversary—a man is about to have his fantasies come true with a woman who was once forbidden fruit, and is now ripe for the picking...

When Gabe Hamilton saw Mia Crestwell walk into the ballroom for his hotel’s grand opening, he knew he was going to hell for what he had planned. After all, Mia is his best friend’s little sister. Except she’s not so little anymore. And Gabe has waited a long time to act on his desires.

Gabe has starred in Mia’s fantasies more than once. So what if he’s fourteen years older? Mia knows he’s way out of her league, but her attraction has only grown stronger with time. She’s an adult now, and there’s no reason not to act on her most secret desires.

As Gabe pulls her into his provocative world, she realizes there’s a lot she doesn’t know about him or how exacting his demands can be. Their relationship is intense and obsessive, but as they cross the line from secret sexual odyssey to something deeper, their affair runs the risk of being exposed—and vulnerable to a betrayal far more intimate than either expected.

  • Not much of a rush

    No substance to the characters. No excitement if they get together or don’t.
  • Loved it!

    I will start by saying that I tend to be a fan of dom/sub books but I didn’t like this one. I don’t like the characters. Gabe cursing at her triggered me. He also wasn’t respectful at all in regards to sex. He just used to her as a convenient hole and she just took it.
  • The only one in the series that is good

    This is a good one, don’t waste your time on the others. The only thing I wasn’t a fan of is I felt there was a LOT of repetitiveness in it, but other than that I loved the main characters in this
  • Love. Recommend.

    I thought this was going to be more romantic, less dominant. The dominance in the bedroom went over the top sometimes (but im not one to like a lot of bdsm) it just seemed odd for a woman seems shy to want to sign her life over to a very dominate man. If hes dominant he doesnt want a shy women. He has to make her feel brave first, then he’ll dominate her in the bedroom. it doesnt make sense. The dymamic seemed off. I did read all of it, but the beginning did not intrigue me, i was going to stop reading it because it was just her describing what everybody was thinking and feeling, not a lot of dialogue. It didnt pull at my heart strings after I finished reading it. There were no surprises, meaning that there was no anticipation, building up to find out this one secret(s). All the plots were all mundane. The author described the things as average. Such as she did not go in depth in a lot of parts of the book, instead she just explained it like any average person would. I dont think its worth the price they are selling it for. Sorry but this book was not executed well.
