Product Description:
He's an ex-cop. She's an ex-wife. And they're both out for revenge on the same man....
When pampered former cheerleader Feenie Malone takes a job writing fluff pieces for her South Texas paper, she has no idea she's about to stumble into a juicy news story that could launch her career -- if it doesn't get her killed first. Almost as soon as she breaks out her press pass, she crosses paths with Marco Juarez, the macho PI obsessed with solving his sister's murder. The information he has might be the perfect lead -- but his dangerously sexy looks could be a deadly distraction.
Juarez has zero patience for reporters, especially mouthy blond ones. But with the evidence pointing to Feenie's ex-husband, Marco thinks she could be useful. Confident he can keep her on a tight leash, he lets her in on his investigation. He quickly discovers he's underestimated his new partner, as well as the danger they both face. Now he must protect her -- to the very last breath....

I was a bit skeptical since this is a very first time author, but I was totally impressed! I loved this entire book! The suspense was great, the romance was steamy and there was a bonus of comedy as well. I'm definitely going to get her subsequent in this series - One Wrong Step. I can't wait to see what happens with Cecelia and hopefully also get an update on Marco and Feenie.

It's all Laura Griffin's fault. I lost precious hours of sleep devouring her debut novel, One Last Breath. While spying on her ex-husband, reporter Feenie Malone realizes there's more to Josh than just being a lousy ex. Hoping to kill two birds with one stone, Feenie decides to investigate Josh's connection to a well-known criminal and use the story to advance her career. PI Marco Suarez is convinced Feenie's ex had something to do with his sister's disappearance. Suarez has spent the last two years "unofficially" working his sister's case. When he meets Feenie, he's determined to find out if she's just the innocent bystander she claims to be or if she's Josh's accomplice in Paloma's disappearance. As Feenie and Suarez work together uncovering Josh's seedier side, sparks fly and their relationship grows. Feenie begins to wonder if they could have a future together, but Suarez's quest for revenge seems to keep getting in the way.
One Last Breath is an engaging story from start to finish, one that suspense fans will not want to miss. The explosive prologue hooked me right from the start. I connected with Feenie quickly and as Suarez grew on her, he also grew on me. In short, I wanted to work out in Chico's Gym, be a best friend to Feenie and I just plain wanted Suarez. With a tight plot and an endearing cast of secondary characters, One Last Breath is a great read from an author who is sure to entertain us for years to come!

One Last Breath, a debut novel from Laura Griffin is an exciting romantic suspense novel with plenty of mystery, romance, and comedy mixed in.
Feenie Malone is a struggling journalist who is trying to make it on her own after a nasty divorce from her rich cheating husband, Josh. He got everything except the house that she adored. The initial introduction of Feenie is comedic in that she just found out her husband was cheating on her and she is shooting up all his trophies. A cop named Marco Juarez responds to the incident. Fast forward two years, these two meet up again in an investigation involving her ex husband, Josh. Josh is rich and well connected but he is up to something dangerous involving drug lords, child trafficking, money laundering,etc. Marco is now an ex cop/PI who believes that Josh is connected to the disappearance of his sister, Paloma, who was a police officer, and disappeared two years earlier along with her partner. Feenie is a struggling journalist looking for her big break and a full time position at the Gazette as well as trying to get revenge of her ex. Marco uses her connection to Josh to get answers and insight into the man that she had been married to for 5 years.
Feenie is no shrinking violet and knows how to take care of herself except when somebody is trying to scare her off or kill her before she finds out the truth. Marco Juarez is watching her back and trying to keep her out of trouble and from being killed. Too bad she is too curious for her own good. Sometimes Marco wonders why he even cares what happens to her. He takes her to the gym and the firing range so she can protect herself. She already knows her way around a gun thanks to her father who is a card carrying a member of the NRA.
Marco is your typical alpha male who is dead set on revenge for his family especially the daughter his sister left behind. During the investigation, he finds another cause to get involved in: falling in love with Feenie and keeping her safe.
Will Marco find the answers he is looking and get the revenge he seeks? Will Feenie find out the truth and get the story that could make her career? Will Feenie and Marco survive to have a future together? You will have to read this exciting debut novel to find the answers. Can't wait for her follow up novel involving Feenie's best friend Cecelia.
