Barely Breathing
Book three in the spellbinding first-person POV romantic urban fantasy series by NY Times & USA Today bestselling author Michelle M. Pillow I never asked for this life. Being the only mortal in a family of supernatural powerhouses was hard enough. Now, I have a master vampire who won’t let me go, a dragon’s magic that won’t stay quiet, and another damn prophecy hanging over my head like a guillotine. And the werewolves? They’ve kidnapped an innocent child—along with her father—for a ritual that will either destroy the supernatural world… or twist it into something far worse. I can’t save them. Not alone. To stop the ritual, I’ll have to risk everything—my family, my friends, my humanity. Costin, the dangerously seductive vampire, wants to protect me, but even he can’t shield me from the choices I have to make. And Paul, the man who once gave me hope for a normal life? He’s caught at the heart of it all. I’ve survived dragons, labyrinths, and betrayals. But this time, the stakes are higher than ever. Blood and moonlight are calling, and if I don’t fight with everything I have, I’ll lose more than just my soul. How much am I willing to sacrifice to save the ones I love? I’m barely breathing. And the worst is yet to come. ____ Perfect for fans of Ilona Andrews, Patricia Briggs, and Jeaniene Frost, Barely Breathing blends high-stakes action, supernatural mystery, steamy romance, and forbidden love in a thrilling urban fantasy world.
