Publisher's summary

Ash, Jace, and Gabe: three of the wealthiest, most powerful men in the country. They're accustomed to getting anything they want. Anything at all. For Ash, it's the woman who changes everything he’s ever known about dominance and desire....

When it comes to sex, Ash McIntyre has always explored his wilder side - extreme and uncompromising. He demands control. And he prefers women who want it like that. Even the ones he's shared with his best friend, Jace.

But Jace is involved with a woman he has no intention of sharing. And now even Gabe has settled into a relationship with someone who gives him everything he needs, leaving Ash feeling restless and unfulfilled.

Then Ash meets Josie, who seems immune to his charms and his wealth. Intrigued, he begins a relentless pursuit, determined she won’t be the one who got away. He never imagined the one woman to tell him no would be the only woman who’d ever drive him to the edge of desire.

OMG! Can't get enough of this series

Adam Paul is the voice!!!!! Great book and the Narrator make it come alive. Thank you!

Wow!!!

LOVE the story and the performance is PERFECT!! Couldn’t put it down. I’ll be buying this book also. It only makes sense since I already have the first two of this trilogy.
Dang it, I had no intention of going beyond this trial version of Audible BUT I’m HOOKED!!!

Book 3 of the Breathless Trilogy

Burn is the final book in the Breathless Trilogy. The first book "Rush" was Gabe's story, the second book "Fever" was Jace's story, and lastly "Burn" was Ash's story. I enjoyed this world given to us by Maya Banks. I've always been wishy washy about her books. I have a love/hate relationship with the author. This is one of her series I would recommend to others.
Ash McIntyre, self-made billionaire, through years of hard work and determination, made it his goal to separate himself from his worthless money hungry family. Ash is known as the cool, down-to-earth guy everyone loves. But on the inside, he's much, much more than that. With his two best friends and business partners settling down with the women they love, Ash is feeling restless & like a third wheel. When Ash runs into Josie while walking thru the park, he knows there's something about this woman that's different. There's an undeniable chemistry and Ash's has this extreme desire to have this woman in his life. He has to make her his...
He wants a dominance and submissive relationship. Josie is the complete opposite from Ash. She is very vibrant & artistic. Some how they compliment each other through out this book. I enjoyed having the characters from previous books play big parts in this book. I've always liked Mia, Gabe, Jace, and Bethany.
I definitely recommend Burn especially for those listeners that like plenty of steamy scenes and dominant males.

Banks is on track here...

I am so glad Bank redeemed herself from book 1 in this series. This was awesome. I just loved it. Smexing was great, storyline was pretty much the same as book 1 and 2 but different. I still enjoyed it. Way Way better than book 1. I think it was better than book 2 actually, plus we meet more of Ash's family and I think there will be a book 4, because we get another billionaire will Ash's sister... Looking forward to it...

Narration was right on.. Adam Paul has really settled into his characters into this one.. it was great.

Great buy if you have the other two, great credit too. I wouldn't suggest this a read alone, b/c you wouldn't really understand the background of Ash if you haven't listen to book 1 or 2. Good sale if you catch it...

Great story!

I so loved this story better than book 1 in the series. It was touching and sad. I would not recommend this one as a standalone. The other 2 books in the series should be listened to first. Maya Banks knocked it out of the park with this one.

Yup it was book 3!

As for the entire trilogy I have to give it overall a 4.0. Not a lot of surprises, the world of these books is rich in detail, mostly plausible scenarios (except book 2), and for the most part imparts the age old knowledge that men really are thick headed...and us women have to keep forgiving them or the earth would no longer be populated.

This book followed the same formula as books 1 and 2....man meets woman, man is oddly attracted to woman...on a primal level of course...man is obsessed with woman...woman is overtaken by mans desire and then man screws up and woman must forgive him...or once again we have the population issue!

Sometimes I really don't like Maya Banks stuff...she is for sure off in her own world and writes to please herself, not her readers...but at least she gets the hot scenes HOT! This book is no exception...and to the person out there who gives a below three star rating because they feel it's pornography with barely a plot...I encourage you to READ THE REVIEWS BEFORE YOU BUY!!!! Maya writes hot...if you don't like reading graphic scenes of submission, Dominance, and pure hot sex...then don't get the book, and stay away from Shayla Black while you are at it too!

The book is under $10, so just buy it.

Sexy but predictable

The story was predictable and the dialogue repetitive but the characters are fun and sexy.

Burn

Ash is the last of the three without a woman but he is knocked out when he spies a woman artist in the park and when he approaches her and talks with her she is just as captivated. When he finds her art in a gallery he is just as captivated and buys it all without her knowing. Soon she is enclosed in his apartment after being attacked by her previous dom but Ash is not going to let that stop him from having her. He has finally fallen, and it appears she has fallen just as fast...until she finds her artwork he had hidden when she moved in. Then she ran. Of course a foe from the past comes back and once again the woman is hurt. Seriously? Of course, all is well by the end and everyone is happy.

Loved the whole series!

Didn't want it to end! Maya Banks is amazing at really making you feel like you are apart of the books!

Leaves You Burning

You want sexy? You want sex? You want heat? This book has it. Now , the story line is a bit shallow but I just might forgive the author and just enjoy it for what it is... a delicious indulgence.
