4 Stars!
I fell in love with Sam and Charlie in Heartless. Breathless is a continuation of Sam and Charlie's story and picks up right where book 1 ended. You also get more Jules, Callie and Joe. I still love Jules and the relationship he and Charlie continue to have. He is still there being a pain in the butt to Charlie as well as being the best friend a girl can have.
As for Sam, there's just no words for him. Seriously, he is the most loving person and understands everything that Charlie has went through and continues to go through. He is there for her every step of the way, and at times I feel so bad for him because she continues to hold back from him. Charlie is so scared to let him in because she struggles with not knowing what the future will bring. But Sam does everything he can to show her how much she means to him and that he will do anything to keep her in his future...
"I really wish you'd stop putting yourself in this box of damaged goods. You can have the fairytale and I will be your happily ever after.....if you let me."
He knows everything about her and nothing will scare him off to make him not want to be with her. I fell in love with Sam all over again when he tells Charlie exactly how much he knows her and she realizes just how much she needs him.....
"Of course I remembered. Baby I know you better than you think I do. I know you like your coffee blonde with one splenda, but if you get it from Starbucks, you taste the difference between a skinny and a non-fat latte. I know you yawn when you're annoyed and your brows crease when you're lost in thought. You chew on your bottom lip when you're nervous and you refuse to make eye contact when you're keeping something from me. You run when you're scared and fight hard for what you love. And food is something you never joke about."
I just love Sam! I don't even know if my own husband knows that much about me! When I read that part I swooned all over again!
I definitely enjoyed Sam and Charlies story once again. There were some twist and turns throughout this story that kept everything flowing. I'm glad questions that I had from Book 1 were answered when it came to Charlie's past relationships with some of her family. The things that Charlie continues to push through just shows how strong she is and continues to be. As for the ending...I'm hoping there's a book 3! It can't just end that way! If it does, I guess I got enough and know it ended the way it should, but I would love more. Plus, just like I said in my review from Heartless...Jules needs a book! So...please please please let there be a book for Jules! Either way, I will read what ever comes out next from the talented, Vanessa Marie!
