Jessica Whitaker enjoys her work as a U.S. Marine Corp Combatant diver. Now that career is jeopardy and it appears that Arachne, the elusive foe of all Athena Academy graduates, is gunning for her. Is it Jessica's unusual ability that Arachne desires? Jessica takes an assignment for Oracle to look for a sunken ship in hopes of obtaining information to oppose Arachne. But will this mission put everyone onboard in jeopardy? And what about her attraction to Zach Holiday, the owner of the salvage operation she is working with? BREATHLESS exemplifies what I’ve come to expect from the Athena Force series. Sharron McClellan perfectly captures all the elements that first made me fall in love with this line: a sharp heroine who is able to handle herself in dangerous situations, a male who is both capable and willing to let the heroine be independent, and a fast paced storyline. What more could I ask for as a reader? BREATHLESS can easily be read as a stand alone story. Sharron McClellan provides readers with all the information needed to understand the ongoing issues. Better yet, BREATHLESS also helps move this continuity series forward as it adds some new information to the ongoing storyline. Sharron McClellan keeps readers on her toes, anxiously turning the pages to see what will happen next. Arachne is gunning for Jessica and it's going to take all of Jessica's skills, plus a bit of luck, to keep her safe. There is a slight paranormal element, just enough to satisfy readers like me who enjoy the paranormal but not so much to bother those who are simply looking for a good romantic suspense story. Excellent!Reviewed by Debbie |
