Breathe Underwater by Anise Storm & Taylor L. Ray – Review by Beverly Finnie

Breathe Underwater by Anise Storm
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow! Just Wow! Despite the darkness in Breathe Underwater, I absolutely loved it! The authors put together a wonderfully written meaty story that keeps on enraptured till the end. I’m familiar with the one author which is what drew me to this book in the first place. I thoroughly enjoy their work. However the combination of unfamiliar author and familiar was pleasantly surprising.
This book has some dark trigger warning themes. Has a brave/strong female lead character.
It also has a male lead who is so ingrained in what he’s doing that lines start to cross.
So what happens when those two characters were sweet on each other as teens and now 13 years later are back in each other’s lives?
Evelyn and Damian were the two that never should fit, but they did and it was a perfect match. Till Evelyn’s dad got involved and upended their lives. Telling lies on both accounts, each thinking they were abandoned by the other.
13 years later they are now forbidden fruit. They know they shouldn’t but can’t resist. Damian tries to warn Evelyn away but she doesn listen. Evelyn knows better but keeps following her heart.
Do they stay apart or make it work?
Does Damian’s shady/secretive lifestyle get in the way?
What about Evelyn’s dad?
Trust me when I say if you like either of these authors you are going to want to read this book. If you are not familiar with them, now is your time to discover why they will be your new favorites!
