*****5- Breathe, Sassy, Breathe -Stars*****~this review may contain minor spoilers~Then I became obsessed becoming a Jahleel-craving idiot.A fool. A dumb@***. A dolt. A lummox. Throw what names you will, I readily accept them.That was bloody friggin brilliant!  Just – WOW. I'm gobsmacked (sorry, channeling my inner-Saskia) but seriously, I completely fell in love with this book. Normally, I despise insta-love (Saskia definitely suffers from that) it just makes things a bit too easy but in this case, things are far from ever easy. This entire book was one huge angst-fest loaded with drama, tears, frustration, smokin' sexiness and that is right up my alley. I love a book that forces me through a range of emotions and S. Ann Cole excelled at it.Once upon a time, I was a strong young woman, but that 'me' died a brutal death the second I laid eyes on the biggest American @***..... ever, who became the bane of my existence, but at the same time, the love of my life and holder of my happiness.Saskia Day (Kia) met Jahleel Kingston (JK) backstage after her first small yet live performance on-stage. Right from the start she knew she was always going to love that boy, problem was-he never even acknowledged her existence. And thus begins her obsession.“I do wish there was something I could do to make this obsession go away. But... I can't. I've tried and I've failed. Numerous times. I'm subservient to him. Bound and ensnared. Captured and captivated. Taken and held. It is what it is: Jahleel Kingston owns me, and he doesn't eve know it.”For five years her obsession takes on a life of it's own. Every decision she makes is with Jahleel in mind. Every man she dates is compared to him and none can stack up. And even though she has hit the big-time as a Rock Goddess and is worth millions, envied and desired around the world-to Jahleel, she is no one. Tired of waiting for him to notice her, she decides to walk right up to the source of her obsession and insert herself into his life anyway possible. So, she makes an appointment at his dance studio.“he's the biggest @**.... you'll ever come across. I love both of you equally, but I just don't wanna see you getting' hurt... and Kia?”“Yeah?”“He will hurt you.”“He won't”“You alotta' things, girl. Alotta' things I adore and respect 'bout you. But being stupid ain't one of 'em. Don't see him.”Even after she sees Jahleel as the butthole that he is, her obsession doesn't wane. Even when he continues to ignore her, sleeping with every woman that crosses his path but her, she loves him still. Nothing he does seems to shake off her feelings, even though she is starting to wish she could just get over it already. He is the one man she wants and he is the one man who doesn't want her.“I really don't like you,”“and I know a lie when I hear it.”This book should have frustrated the crap outta me, and it did... to a point, but I loved it anyway. Jahleel's mood swings gave me whiplash, and he proved to be quite a douche, but he was sexy as sin and there were way more layers to him than he let anyone see. You just knew there was sooo much he wasn't telling us and was too  friggin stubborn to let us in. I can tell you, I wouldn't mind being in a 'platonic' relationship  with that one... for awhile anyway. There were sooo many characters to fall in love with, so much angst and drama you could choke on it, steam so hot it will  set your girlie bits  and your kindle on fire, I just loved it. Every. Friggin. Minute. Now, I'm anxious to see what happens next, I need another Jahleel fix and was stoked to discover there was more to come in the future. And No this book does not have a cliffhanger. S. Ann Cole, you have just earned yourself an obsessed  stalker with this book. So....when can I have more?! Lol...but really, When?!I got attached.As if being obsessed and in delusional love wasn't enough, now I went and got a-friggin-ttached.Jenn @ Bookworm Betties
