Im coming out of my New Adult phase, for many reasons really. But have no fear NA ill be back. Especially when there are gems like Breathe Into Me. While there were a few NA cliches Fawkes stayed away from my deal breaker, If you new to my brand of crazy ill quickly explain my deal breaker. OMG ITS SO BIG HOW IS GOING TO FIT! Hes as big as an animal! Typing those words made me semi violent. So I considered it a win if the deal breaker doesnt appear.Beautiful Lacey really doesnt have a lot going for her besides looks, dont get me wrong shes not stupid by any means. Her boyfriend is abusive, she lives with her crazy Grandmother, Mother, and brother in a trailer park. She has 2 dead end jobs and no friends. Not to mention a bad reputation thanks to the people in her small town.But things start to change for her after a night with her one so called friend. She runs into an old friend from school and his HOT friend, Everett. And is ALMOST forced to give one of her boyfriends friends a blowjob. Everett protects her from her boyfriend and a FRIENDSHIP develops of course they are attracted to each other but they take things slow. In fact when the word girlfriend is mentioned Lacy is taken aback.He quickly becomes the one she feels safe with and opens up to him about various things in her life. I was happy for Lacy! She found a friend, their attraction wasnt in the forefront of every conversation they had. Everett helped her in so many ways. He helped her believe in herself and really thats just -sigh-.Things for Lacy dont get better right away. Its definitely a roller coaster ride. She has employment issues, a useless mother and that crazy grandmother. While there is a vast amount of characters in Breath Into Me, I have to say my favorite hands down was the bartender Cherise. She was a beacon of awesome for me.I basically devoured this book in a matter of a few short hours. I just couldnt put it down, okay I did put it down for like 30 LONG minutes my hands itched to hold my kindle tight. Fawkes totally has a new fan girl in me! Oh and how can I forget to imagine how much I LOVE Breathe Into Me is a standalone! YES!!! I miss these mythical creatures!
