How do you move on when you lost the one person that held your whole heart?"I am broken. Broken and shattered into so many pieces, I don't now if there is anyone who could ever put my heart completely back together."Makenna can't get past her grief, losing her fiancé Shane in a terrible accident she is stuck, in limbo, afraid to move forward with her life. She goes through the daily motions, work, family, friends but she isn't fooling anyone; she is a shell of her former self."The scar on my heart won't ever heal because I won't let it."With a not so delicate push from her best friend Callie; Makenna agrees to a date with the schools football coach Drew. Tall, handsome and charming he is the perfect guy to help Makenna move on. Drew is patient and kind, never pushing Makenna for more than she is willing to give. But what happens when it's still not enough? Should you stay with a man who provides companionship or do you hold out for love?When Makenna's class participates in an Adopt a Soldier event she meets Sawyer. On active duty in Afghanistan, Makenna and Sawyer form a friendship through emails and video chats. They have an instant connection and it doesn't hurt that he is HOT!So, what is a girl to do? Stay where you are or follow your gut and hope it leads you in the right direction? Simple right? Yeah, not so much. Not everyone is who they appear to be and jealousy is a b-.When things start to fall apart which man will save her and which will try to hurt her?I really enjoyed Every Breath; it was engaging and kept my interest throughout the story. The characters were well written, emotions that you could feel (I may have shed a tear or two) and the combination of heartbreak, drama, a bit of mystery and a sweet romance made for a great read that I would definitely recommend to others."Sometimes, it takes someone just as broken as you are to heal you. Sometimes, it takes someone else to show you that you won't heal until every breath you take is for you, not anyone else. The scars may not ever fade, but the heart can be put back together piece by piece, if you have the right person for the job."
