Anderson, Natalie - BREATHE FOR MEWow! Intense, great tension build up and release, repeat. Each release ratcheting up the tension. I love the balance between the rising sexual tension (and high heat) and the intense emotional tension between Xander and Chelsea. Anderson writes for Harlequin and in many ways it follows the HM&B; tried and true emotional read. The difference is the quality of intense sexuality throughout every sentence in this story. The hero and heroine are damaged by hurts in the past and at times it seems impossible that these two will heal, however, there is change and growth throughout each chapter.Favorite line - "Dear Heaven, he was sex on toast with double sides of humor, strength, and loyalty."
