Publisher's summary

After a terrible car accident destroys her life as she knew it, 20-year-old Kacey escapes to Florida, where she encounters an irresistible man determined to capture her wounded heart.

Just breathe, Kacey. Ten tiny breaths. Seize them. Feel them. Love them.

Four years ago Kacey Cleary's life imploded when her car was hit by a drunk driver, killing her parents, boyfriend, and best friend. Still haunted by memories of being trapped inside, holding her boyfriend's lifeless hand and listening to her mother take her last breath, Kacey wants to leave her past behind. Armed with two bus tickets, Kacey and her 15-year-old sister, Livie, escape Grand Rapids, Michigan, to start over in Miami. They're struggling to make ends meet at first, but Kacey's not worried. She can handle anything - anything but her mysterious neighbor in apartment 1D.

Trent Emerson has smoldering blue eyes, deep dimples, and perfectly skates that irresistible line between nice guy and bad boy. Hardened by her tragic past, Kacey is determined to keep everyone at a distance, but their mutual attraction is undeniable and Trent is determined to find a way into Kacey's guarded heart - even if it means revealing an explosive secret that could shatter both of their worlds.

Ten Tiny Breaths

A little too much sexual content for me but all and all it was a pretty good read

Another good book from K.A. Tucker

Would you listen to Ten Tiny Breaths again? Why?

The narrator was too soft spoken for my taste.

Any additional comments?

The story is indeed a bit stretched, Kacey has gone through so much heart ache in her life but she never dealt with her emotions which led to problems later on. I personally think that Trent's identity is spoiling the story. Without it would have been much more believable.

LOVE.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would definitely recommend this book to a friend. It's the perfect amount of chick lit and drama without being overly one or the other. There's a nice twist to it and the plot isn't incredibly predictable.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I don't think I had a favorite. I liked how all of the characters interacted and it was quick, sharp wit that was funniest. None of the dialogue sounded forced.

Have you listened to any of Elizabeth Louise’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I listened to "One Tiny Lie" and found the dialogue to be the same. I would love to read more of her works.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

YES! There aren't really any slow parts to this one. "One Tiny Lie" had a little more slowness, but not much. I found myself tuning in late at night when I should probably be heading to bed, but I just couldn't wait to figure out what was gonna happen next!

Any additional comments?

Definitely worth trying. This book is good for 20-somethings who are caught between full out erotic novels and teeny bopper romances. It's a good, quick listen/read that I would definitely listen to again.

Ignore the negative reviews, acknowledge the good!

I feel like such a dum dum. I’m almost sure the book pretty much spells it out but I still don’t get it!! I’m definitely below smart if it’s so simple! What is the purpose of ten tiny breaths? Seize them, feel them, love them? Ahh! What does it mean??

Anyway good read. I’m with other positive reviews. It’s why I picked it up and glad I did. Tastefully written. Casey and Ben are my faves in this one and Mia the most annoying. Off to read 4 seconds to lose now.

love is love...

I really enjoyed this short novel it was definitely worth the credit. I was lucky enough to purchase it during the 2 for 1 special so now I get to listen and enjoy book 2. If you love romance and a little mystery then you'll love this one. The narrator also made this book a good listed.

Oh my heat.

DESCRIPTION:
When everyone you ever loved vanishes. One minute you’re laughing and teasing with your mom, boyfriend, dad, and best friend the next they are gone, and you’re the only one left, besides your baby sister. Then the next you’re living with your aunt and uncle planning your escape to get your sister and you out of that situation. This is exactly what happened to Kacey and Liv. Kacey packed up her and Liv in the middle of the night and took a bus to Miami far away from her aunt and uncle.

MY THOUGHTS:
I loved this book. It was beautiful and just gave me the warm and fuzzies. It was genuine and heartfelt. KA Tucker always does a wonderful job writing. There were so many emotions going on in this book, that it was hard not to sympathize with the characters. I loved the ending of this book, it could have gone either way and I am glad it went the way it did.
