Blog Tour: Breathless

Hello readers! The end of October is fast approaching and while most of us have been reading some spooky stories (myself included) I signed up to participate in the blog tour for Breathless, the first book in a new Adult Contemporary Romance series by Leigh Lavalle. This post will contain more details about the book, my spoiler-free thoughts and an international giveaway so, get excited and let’s begin!

Book details:

Breathless
by Leigh LaValle
(Yoga in the City, #1)
Publication date: May 27th 2017
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

Synopsis:

A sassy new romance from a USA Today Bestselling Author…

After moving cross-country yet again, Hannah Roberts wants to put down roots in Colorado. She’s sunk her life savings into a share of Bloom Yoga Studio, but the studio is losing money, and fast. The building is undergoing a messy, noisy renovation–and the hot carpenter in charge is distracting her yoga students in more ways than one. If Hannah can’t talk the hard-bodied builder out of his power tools, she might as well kiss her dreams goodbye.

When Jake Marshall returned from Afghanistan, he brought back an injured knee and a lot of bad memories. He just wants to finish this renovation, rehab his knee, and head for Alaska to leave it all behind. A sexy yoga teacher doesn’t fit into his plans. But when Hannah offers him private sessions in exchange for quiet hours—he’s all in.  He doesn’t expect that while she’s healing his knee, Hannah will poke at all his hidden wounds…and come dangerously close to breaking open his heart.

REVIEW: I don’t know about you but I absolutely love Yoga, I’ve found that it helps me to feel more relaxed and have some sort of control over daily goals I set myself every morning when I wake up. Breathless is the first book in the Yoga in the City series including romance, emotional stories and… Yoga. In this book, we follow main characters Hannah and Jake. After a bad relationship break-up, Hannah arrives in Colorado, USA to set up a Yoga studio called Bloom. However, the studio is losing money fast and the noisy construction work on the building where the studio is housed is causing issues for students attending classes. The new landlord Jake, an Afghanistan veteran, is struggling with the ghosts of his past and tries to throw himself into the construction work to help take his mind off of things. With a knee injury, Hannah offers to help with 1 to 1 sessions but doing so could open up wounds for both of them that they are trying to heal closed.

Breathless was a steamy, fast-paced read in the beautiful Colorado settings. I have never been abroad personally but hearing the descriptions of the woods and mountain tracks, I am very interested to pack my bags and go for a hike! I don’t normally read a lot of adult romances but felt Breathless was the perfect length and really opened up about the various Yoga positions which I may try myself (providing that I don’t cause damage to my Mum’s china plates!).

I’m excited to see where this series goes. If you are over 18 and love romances that are spicy, emotional and heart-braking, look no further.
