I certainly fell victim to the “Tate Connors Effect” with Just Breathe. I didn’t know if I wanted to smack Tate most of the time or kiss him senseless! This book was amazing! I loved Savannah and Tate, and all of the other characters so very much! Rachel Brookes has written a novel that really pulls you in immediately and will hold you captive right up to the end, then leave you wanting more!Savannah “Sav” Rae had a hard life. She lost her parents at a very young age, and she was blamed for the suicide of her ex-boyfriend. Her heart had been crushed, and she vowed to never love again. Sav felt that she never deserved to be happy. Sav lived her life by numbing the pain with alcohol, partying and men. This all changed when she was captivated by a set of mesmerizing blue eyes in the lobby of her new apartment building.Tate Connor is player. He is a beautifully broken man. Sav could see it written all over his face. He is the male version of herself. Tate is used to his bachelor lifestyle of women, partying, and working in the bar he owns. He is content with the way his life is going until an Australian bombshell knoks his world off its axis.The relationship between Sav and Tate was scorching. The build up of sexual tension was thick and steamy! I loved the way that they fed off each other and the fact that they were both so much alike, made the chemistry all the better.I truly loved every single character in this book. It is hard to say that about a book. Tanzi, Tate’s twin sister is amazing, and quickly becomes Sav’s best friend. Jack, who is Tanzi’s boyfriend was just too funny for words. I just loved him! Add in Lucas, and Mr. Davenport, and you have a lot of sexy men to choose from swoon over in Just Breathe.I can’t wait to read more about what happens next in the lives of Tate and Sav in the next book. I am left feeling a little uneasy and unsettled with the ending. I am scared that something is going to happen, and I’m worried that my heart won’t be able to take it. My heart already broke a few times during Just Breathe as I learned about the demons that Sav and Tate had faced. This book was amazing, and I seriously need to know what happens next! 5 Stars Plus!
