Synopsis:


What comes around goes around. Karma. Payback. Just desserts.

Half man, half spirit, Nighthawk has heard them all from his ruthless spirit guide, Kaine. Forced into the bodies of people similar to those he's wronged in past lives, Nighthawk now occupies the body and soul of Elijah, a freed slave, in 1870. But what profound lesson could he possibly learn from indulging in a naughty ménage at a bordello with a gorgeous woman and her rugged partner? No karma here, for damn sure. The hot couple leaves Nighthawk panting with lust like never before…or perhaps it's the familiar signs of betrayal making him feel so breathless…

 

SRR GRADE:  B+
 

Nighthawk, the name given to him by his spirit guide Kaine, has to complete seven past lives lessons. Currently he is being tested on life lesson number four. Sharing the body of Elijah Miller, a freed mulatto slave from Alabama, he experiences the joys and pains of immense sexual pleasure with a man and woman and also their betrayal and bigotry. Will Elijah get to experience the thing he wants most or will others judge him based on his race? Is Karma really the bitch everyone says she is? Will Nighthawk, pass his test and see the error or his ways in his past life?

Breathless will leave you as such. Ms. Blaze's first book in a planned series of four leaves a few questions and teasers that I am hoping will be answered in the future novels. The heat between the four characters Kassidy, Wyatt, and Nighthawk/Elijah was nothing short of an inferno. The needs and desires that were laid out without shame was thoughtfully planned and came across to make this book a very fast paced read. The relationship between Kassidy and Wyatt was more of a Friends/Co-workers with benefits relationship. I enjoyed this book and I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
