Publisher Description
Bestselling author Katie McGarry’s trademark wrong-side-of-the-tracks romance is given a new twist in the gritty YA contemporary audiobook, Only a Breath Apart.
They say your destiny is carved in stone. But some destinies are meant to be broken.
The only curse Jesse Lachlin believes in is his grandmother’s will: in order to inherit his family farm he must win the approval of his childhood best friend, the girl he froze out his freshman year.
A fortuneteller tells Scarlett she's psychic, but what is real is Scarlett’s father’s controlling attitude and the dark secrets at home. She may be able to escape, but only if she can rely on the one boy who broke her heart.
Each midnight meeting pushes Jesse and Scarlett to confront their secrets and their feelings, but as love blooms, the curse rears its ugly head…
Praise for Only a Breath Apart:
"A gorgeous, heartfelt journey of redemption and love." —New York Times bestselling author Wendy Higgins
"Gritty and real, Only a Breath Apart is a story of hope conjured from pain, strength drawn from innocence, and love earned from self-respect. Beautiful, poignant, and fierce.”—Kristen Simmons, critically acclaimed author of the Article 5 series
Customer Reviews
I loved every minute
What can I say about Only a Breath Apart? That would give it justice. The newest from Katie McGarry pulled at my heart string and threw me into this world of Jesse and Scarlett.
I loved every minute of it. I loved how these two grew together even when they were apart. The writing feels poetic and I feel saying it was beautiful is not the right word. This story is one of those that will hide within your heart. Maybe in a sense make you stronger, maybe you learned something from Jesse and Scarlett. You need room to soar, and you need to take adventures, even if that adventure is finding yourself.
I love the inclusion of Peter Pan. I remembered as a child and watched the movie. And how Tinker Bell was my favorite. I knew how much she met to him and thought that it made you feel even more for these two. There’s always a story that will touch you in some way. It didn’t make me ugly cry, but it brought tears to my eyes, and it filled my heart. I read to escape, and I was able to escape into their world.
Overall, Five Boundless Stars
