Customer Reviews

Another Gulf War Vet's View

Well, I don't know why the other gulf war vet reviewer didn't like Alexander's writing, but that's totally his or her opinion and sure isn't mine. I really liked this book, and for a first novel, it was very good. Alexander seems pretty raw and real and I felt very close to the characters and connected to the story. Give it a shot, especially if you've never experienced war. I lost a lot over there and I appreciated the honesty in the pages. My hat's off to the writer for the courage to tell a story like this. I recognized those places and I know what that's like. And, even if I hated this book, I'd never kick a fellow veteran in public like that. I would just keep my mouth shut.

Keeps you guessing all the way

Extremely well written book which holds your interest from beginning to end. It keeps you guessing all the way through. There is mystery and intrigue; tenderness and sorrow. It lets the reader see inside the head of its heroine and feel her pain and fear as she leads her platoon through a war, as she copes with the murder of a lover, and as she struggles with maintaining her sanity when it looks like she may be the next victim. The book tackles such issues as domestic violence, and what it is like being gay and living in a straight world.

On the edge of my seat...

Alex Alexander's With Every Breath is the gripping story of Abby Dunnigan, a Desert Storm Veteran whose past comes back to haunt her when her ex-lover is murdered. As Abby works to lure the killer into the waiting hands of the FBI, the killer tries to chip away at her sanity until the past and present begin to merge. Lively dialogue and deft plot twists keep this thriller fast paced. When you start reading this book, don't expect to be able to put it down before you're finished. It kept me on the edge of my seat and awake into the wee hours anxiously awaiting the ultimate resolution.

PRAISE FOR WITH EVERY BREATH "Blending and transcending the romance and suspense genres, Alex Alexander's With Every Breath is so entertaining and provocative that it demands to be read in one sitting and thought about long afterward. Like the tough but tender heroine of her novel, Alexander tackles society's ills, from war to domestic violence, with honesty, courage, and hope." --Julia Watts, author of Finding H.F. and Piece of My Heart
