Kairi Morrigan returned to Howell Mountain to hide and make a plan. Once an international fugitive, she’s now a part of a secretive black ops team. Her return home is temporary.

She knows she shouldn’t but she hungers for his touch, to lose herself in him one more time. She lost one great love to the people who betrayed her. The one thing she won’t do is risk another person she loves. The one thing she can never give him, or her enemy, is a second chance. Breathe is a stand-alone romantic suspense novel.
