Breathless is Right!
One would think that a girl with a great group of friends and a loving and supportive boyfriend would be having the time of her life during her Senior year in high school. But alas, not so much. Michael has gone off to college leaving Tasmyn to deal with the group of girls that tried to make her life a living hell – literally – the previous year. On top of that she has gained the unwanted attention of the hot new guy at school whom she discovers is not a normal guy – he has g...more

I read Fearless (book one in the King Series) as one of my first book reviews. I had not read many stories about people with psychological supernatural abilities or about witches in general. I found the first book to be wonderfully written and pleasantly surprised by Tawdra's ability to maintain a PG 13 (approximately) novel that also included supernatural elements. I have to say that Breathless is written just as well. The story is one that shows what happens at the start of senior year for Tas...more

Awhile back I had the lovely chance to review Fearless by Tawdra Kandle. This story is the first in the King series, and I highly recommend it be read prior to Breathless. Be forewarned that my review below will contain spoilers of the first book, so continue reading at your own risk!

Breathless starts from where Fearless ended. And a note of caution for those who haven’t read Fearless. You must read it before reading this one as this book does not act as a standalone and you are better off knowing what happened in the first book.
I will confess that I liked this one more than the first. It has the right mixture of everything. And though it is a bit slow for my thrill loving mind, it has a lot going for it. There isn’t a single boring moment in there. As the title signifies, t...more

I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
Tasmyn Vaughn's senior year in high school is far from typical but that may be because she, herself, is not a typical girl. The only thing normal about her senior year is her longing to be with her one true love, Michael.
Plagued by nightmares of a girl in a straight jacket, black-mailed by her instructor and the object of a new student's attention who seems suspicious; Tasmyn Vaughn really should have just...more

Well I got Breathless free but when I started to read it I couldn't get in to it and then realised there was a book before it, so I bought the first one read that then this one. Iv got to say I enjoyed the first book the most, both books where good just not fantastic, they had romance and supernatural but I didn't feel caught up in the story, I got bored at parts and felt that it didn't have as much excitement as other books iv read. I did enjoy them enough that if I could I would have given it...more
This book had some formatting problems (after a certain point the font changes and everything looks like it is bolded) but that wasn't really a problem.
Story itself is still good and progresses in the same fashion as the first book - you basically follow Tas an learn everything she does. The book only covers a few months, but Tasmyn is pretty much constantly an emotional wreck. Besides Michael leaving, she is dealing with mysterious new comer Rafe, Cara and her religious fanatic father, a creepy...more

Breathless is book number 2 in the King Series. I mistakenly read it first. The three books should be read in order. By reading this first, I did miss some of the initial relationship between Michael and Tas, but I was not lost. I really enjoyed the story and the suspense. I had to purchase the first book, Fearless, and finish Tas' story with the third book, Restless. All three were wonderful. I could not put them down!
Not as good a story as the first one, but it did keep me hooked until the very end. There were quite a few grammatical errors and missing words, more than the first book, hence the rating of 4 stars. I am definitely going to read the next one in the series. I received a copy of this book from Promotional Book Tours in exchange for an honest review.
I am *obsessed* with these books! This one hurt my head in that it revolved around her keeping secrets from everyone (even Michael). I spent most of the book waiting for the impending realization that she's keeping secrets, which never really came. I guess I was just expecting your typical paranormal romance situation, but I should know better by now. I heart these books.
This is the second book in the King Series. I started reading it as soon as I finished the first one. I saw today that the third one is availabe and will be reading that one also.
I will be watching for books by Tawdra Kandle again to read because I love her writing style.

An excellent sequel to the first book in this series. You are once again back in King with Tasmyn who no longer is the new girl but still trying to fit in. You feel her heartbreak at being apart from her boyfriend who has gone to college and after the disaster in the first book her fear of trust. She desperately just wants to be normal and fit in. I liked the down to earth character and her good heart won me over once again in this book. Some excitement towards the end that turns the story into...more
Enjoyed it! The 2nd book in this series, Breathless was a little darker and more intense than the first book. Love this series!

The ongoing story of Tasmyn and Michael is progressing nicely. But there have been bumps for them. I am enjoying the entire storyline and can't wait to read Restless.
