Now, facing a life-altering crisis, she's decided to fix the broken pieces of her heart and seek out Lila, even if it means she has to upset the world of Lila's adoptive mother...her very own sister, Luz.

Ever have one of those days where life just plain sucks? Welcome to my last three months - ever since I caught my can’t-be-soon-enough-ex-husband cheating with his paralegal.

The only family member who’s ever gotten me. Even after death, though, she’s helping me get back up again. Too bad that bravado only lasts as long as it takes to drive into Huckleberry Hills. And see the house.

Of course, I’d already cursed every Russian by the time I got to him. He introduced himself as Vassili Resnov, my heart dropped into the pit of my stomach. Only idiots threaten Resnovs, and then they die - which is logical. The Resnov Bratva is the largest crime syndicate in Russia, maybe the world.

Just my luck - my new next door neighbor is a unicorn. Yep, the British hottie is clearly a mythical man because - get this - he's a sexy, witty, charming, big-hearted single dad. Who, wait for it, wants to find Mrs. Right and get hitched. He’s a once-in-a-blue-moon kind of man, and it’s a darn shame I’m not on the market. If I were, his accent alone would melt me. Add in the fact that he's a veterinarian, and my animal-loving heart would be flip flopping.

Summary
With Chicago - and her marriage - in the rearview mirror, she flees to the small Northern California coastal town where she grew up, a place she couldn't wait to leave. Now she finds herself revisiting the past - an emotionally distant father and the unanswered questions left by her mother's death.
As she comes to terms with her lost marriage, Sarah encounters a man she never expected to meet again: Will Bonner, the high-school heartthrob she'd skewered mercilessly in her old comics. Now a local firefighter, he's been through some changes himself. But just as her heart is about to reawaken, Sarah discovers she is pregnant - with her ex's twins.
It's hardly the most traditional of new beginnings, but who says life and love are predictable...or perfect? The winds of change have led Sarah here. Now all she can do is just close her eyes...and breathe.

Nothing to spend too much time on
This is basic brain candy, no surprises, not terribly funny, very predictable. It sounded a lot better in the description than it was to listen too. Unless you get this for a very reduced price there are better things on this site to spend time listening to.

just breathe
Great!
Looking for a good story with a few laughs along with some real life? This one is it. Terrifically narrated, offering different voices for characters this is a wonderful listen.
Not anything like my own life or probably yours there is much of everyday relationships and living in this book put together with love, friendship, and humor.

Predictable
The premise for the story was cute, the cartoonist part, but the rest could have been summed up in about 3 chapters.
I try not to criticize the readers, but this one made the men sound so much like robots I kept waiting for one of them to say "danger Will Robinson"! It was a bit of a distraction.
If you want a very, very light read, this is for you.

I enjoyed her journey, the parenting issues,
and the small town life.
If I were reading this as a physical book, I might rate it lower, but as an audiobook it “hit the spot.” I had just finished some intense mystery suspense books and needed something lighter. It was very good for keeping me company as I drove, cooked, etc. It’s about a woman who discovers her husband’s infidelity, leaves him, divorces him, and starts a new life.
This is not hot and heavy passion and romance. Instead a friendship develops which eventually turns into more, but children have priority over romantic relationships. There are two sex scenes. They are referred to, no details.
One weakness was the secondary story about arson was not complete. At the end we are told X is the arsonist but nothing else. We don’t see why X did it, how it was done, and what happened to X and X’s family after.
The narrator had a lovely voice for women, but I did not like her voice for 13 year old Aurora. She sounded like a talking doll or a 5 year old. I also did not like her voices for men. They sounded weird.
Genre: women’s fiction with romance.

Not my favorite :-(
I didn't like this one.
there's a formula out there right now that is "woman living cloistered/cosseted/protected/privileged life finds out husband is cheating. woman leaves. woman realizes she wasn't happy in said c/c/p/p life. unexpected stuff happens. new boy arrives. girl falls for boy. they live happily ever after." Some of them are charming. I wasn't charmed by Just Breathe.
The "mystery" subplot was under explored. The teenage step-daughter-to-be is half-heartedly developed and the climax of her storyline happens so fast it doesn't feel real to the reader.
Simply put, the story chafed. it was brain candy at best, but I've enjoyed other brain candy 100% more.
