Publisher's Summary

David Kane’s completely gripping origin story. 

She pulls the door of her office closed and hurries over to her beaten-up old Toyota parked in a deserted alley. Slipping into the driver’s seat, she checks the rear-view mirror, and her heart stops. Staring back at her are the dark eyes of a stranger. She opens her mouth to scream, but it’s already too late....

When secretary Annie Parkes is snatched from the street outside of her workplace, David Kane is tasked with finding her. Strong, highly skilled, and secretive, he’s a loner and an outsider; the only man the military trust to find Annie before her kidnappers make good on their promise to kill her. 

But as Kane pulls Annie from a derelict building, gunshots ringing through the deserted streets around them, he realizes rescuing her is just the beginning. He needs to keep her close to find out who is behind her capture, and to keep her safe.

Hiding out in a remote part of town, Kane feels the walls he put up around himself many years ago begin to slip in front of Annie. Could she be more than just a job? With an old enemy hot on his tail, showing any weakness could be fatal - but when Annie is dragged back into danger once again, could he already be too late?

Fans of the USA Today best-selling Detectives Kane and Alton series will finally find out the truth behind Deputy David Kane’s secret past. If you enjoy Lisa Regan, Melinda Leigh, and Kendra Elliot, you will love this.

Surprisingly good!

Was a little miffed at how short the book was. I enjoyed it so much I’m launching in to the entire series!

Love this narrator

I don’t normally use credits on anything less than 8 hours. But I needed a new series. Love! Love! Love!

Excellent retrospective to bring us to today

Indeed, "Lose Your Breath" is a fantastic historicall look back for both Kane and Terabite.

It opens the door for the future between Dave and Jenna and other characyers to find and act upon love.

i have been reading this series since it came out and it does not disappoint!

Annie

I wish I had read this one first before the series all the time she was included and remembered by Dave

Again!

This series of books never disappoints. I always hate getting to the end and waiting for the next book .

Great book

I actually found this book by looking up the narrator hoping to find more books of the same genre im interested in. The narrator is good at what she does and makes the story.

Halfway through and couldn't finish.

Story was meh and lacked substance. I didn't have high expectations beyond a quick and somewhat entertaining thriller but this story was too basic. And the narration was poor and not a good match for the story or context. Made is cheesier than it already was.

Military, predictable

The story could have survived, but the narrator is off. She has a repetitive pattern of ending each phrase with a low tone drawl. It’s pretty irritating, especially since it makes the hero (who is supposed to be a tough, highly skilled assassin) sound like an aristocratic British poof.

Great story but reader is not so great

The reader romanticizes the story too much with her tone and emphasis. It kind of grosses me out. If the story wasn’t so good, I would have skipped to the end.

Lose your Breath

I enjoyed this book. The characters were pretty well developed and easy to follow. I didn’t really enjoy the narration that much. The voice didn’t really match the characters.
