I received a copy in exchange for an honest review.
Breathless With Her is the story of Erin and Devin. It is filled with all the things you’ve come to love and expect from Carrie Ann Ryan. This story has engaging characters and lots of steam and a bit of angst and I loved it just as much as I’ve loved the rest of this authors books. I look forward to seeing what is happening with Devin’s siblings Amelia and Caleb.
Beautiful book about pick your self up after your husband cheats on you. Erin has been married for ten years, when they go back for high school reunion. Her husband goes missing, so she tries to find him, why she’s looking, she decided to go to the loo, where she walks in on her husband with the head cheerleader doing come of her books & having sex!
This is also about finding love again & taking a chance!
Even smart independent women have to fight feeling “less than”
Erin goes from her only boyfriend, lover, husband to a man that takes her breath away. It’s just a rebound, she will not get serious with another man, right. Devin has never had the urge to get serious with any woman, but Erin has him tied in knots and breathless.
It’s definitely not ideal that they connect on the night she catches her husband cheating. But she couldn’t have found a more caring even nurturing man to help her that night. Their baggage though really colors the emotions they allow themselves to feel as they become “friends with benefits”. The “benefits” are scorching and they truly have a close friendship, until it changes.
Yep, Erin and Devin sucked me right into their lives. The story flows so naturally. Their feelings projected effortlessly for our consumption. But their sadness was never depressing, which I appreciate. As heartbreaking as this tale can be it was also joyful and fun and a delightful read.
Wow! A great start to a new series! Erin and Devin are great together. I loved their story and can’t wait to read more in the series.
The Carr’s get their stories! Devin is the fixer of the family, especially since Dimitri in Colorado Springs, and is happy with his life as it is. He perfectly ordered life changes the night he sees Erin in a sparkly dress, drunk off her ass. He knows her from high school, but regardless he would never let a woman alone in that situation. Erin is drowning her sorrows, and rightly so! Devin decides to take her home, but she passes out before he can ask where she lives so he takes her to his house. Of course his siblings show up the next morning with their snarky banter wanting to know why a sparkly dressed Erin is on his couch! Thus their tenuous friends/friends with benefits begins. The chemistry is there, but they are both are reluctant to admit their true feelings, until it is almost too late. As with all of Carrie’s stories, you are sucked into their world and and fell all the characters pain and love….love this book and can’t wait for Amelia’s story!!
I loved this story and how it played out. Erin saw Devin, for the first time in years, at one of the lowest points of her live and he took care of her without taking over or making her feel like he felt sorry for her. When they ran into each other again it was surprising how many people they had in common in their lives and they were all rooting for them. This made story made me cheer, cry and hold my breath just for the HEA that I wanted them both to have. Loved the sprinkle of the Montgomery family. Well DOne
It all began in a bar in a red sequined dress and tequila shots. What could possible happen! Erin has been hurt and wants to not get serious with Devin. It’s all about remaining friends with benefits. Devin and Erin are such relatable characters. I enjoyed knowing what was going on in their heads while reading this story. I was so enthralled and captivated by the story that I wanted to be the friend that hits them both upside their heads. Lol. It was nice to meet the whole Carr family. Can’t wait for the next book in this series.
Sometimes heartbreak, doubts and fears pushes us to protect our heart and hurt the ones we shouldn’t. Can Erin find the love she’s always been looking for in the friends with benefits with Devin and ask for Devin’s forgiveness…Will Devin forgive her? Loved it!!
I really enjoyed this book. Erin’s dream life shatters and lucky for her she runs into Devin and he turns out to be just who she needs. Now their path to happiness is not easy and they both do some pretty dumb things but they eventually figure it out and get their HEA. This story has lots of emotions, it is funny and it is sad, and I love the way the Montgomery’s tie into the story. I look forward to reading more about the Carr siblings.
