BREATHLESS by
Krista McLaughlin
Book Summary:
Eighteen-year-old Lainey is the only witness to her best friend
losing her life to the depths of the ocean. She stays close to the
water, a small part of her hoping to surrender to the same fate. On
her birthday the waters almost overtake her, but a mysterious young
man rescues her and disappears.
Lainey can't stop
thinking about the stranger from the beach, and one night she finds
her rescuer naked and bleeding on the shore. Jon doesn’t know what
pancakes taste like, how microwave popcorn cooks, or own shoes, but
he seems to be just what Lainey needs. As the anniversary of her
friend’s death looms, Lainey opens herself in ways she never
thought possible. But when Jon’s identity comes to light, Lainey
has to save him before she loses another love to the sea.
