Maya Banks Breathless Trilogy Boxed Set (The Breathless Trilogy) MP3 CD – MP3 Audio, April 29, 2014

I enjoyed reading this Breathless series. I liked that each book focused on the characters that they introduced in the first book of the series.What I didn't really like is the fact that the author wrote each of the three male characters (Gabe, Ash & Jace) almost the exact same. If you were to omit their name in the book, you would not be able to tell them apart much from one another.I do, however, like that the sexual acts were mutually liked/wanted between the parties, which to some extend, made it a fun read.The ending of the series was cutesy and romantic (much like the 50 shades trilogy.)Good read, especially for those who like reading EL James.

I loved everything about this BREATHLESS trilogy by the mega-talented Maya Banks: The captivating "love at first sight" romances. Hot, seductive sexual encounters. The bonds of brotherhood between best friends/filthy rich business partners Gabe, Jace and Ash. The hilarious Girls’ Night Out. The list goes on and on...It was impossible to resist these enigmatic Alpha doms who would do anything to keep their lady loves Mia, Bethany and Josie pleasured and pampered and protected. These are men who fell hard and fast, but once they did, nothing would stand in the way of total dominance and all consuming passion. Sure they are total cavemen who are demanding, self-professed control freaks—in the bedroom and out—but also incredibly kind and generous, endearingly sweet and tender. These are men who love with their whole hearts and treat their beautiful subs with exquisite gentleness and care. Like precious jewels to be treasured and cherished.I swooned the moment I began RUSH, basked in pleasure when I delved into FEVER and finally sighed with sheer satisfaction when I turned to the very last page of BURN. These three editorially connected books are just brimming with heat and heart and humor, as well as a touch of intrigue and danger. There is a looming threat that runs through the course of all three books, and all the threads converge in a shockingly brutal climax that stole my breath! In addition to the steamy erotic interludes, what I really appreciated was how Ms. Banks penned a series that not only celebrated the passionate intense love between a man and a woman, but also masterfully depicted the ties that bind between friends, old and new. I dug how all the heroes and their ladies formed an unconventional family unit together, proving that love, loyalty and abiding friendship can sometimes bring people together in ways that blood ties may not. And when adversity or trouble darkened their doorstep, these closely-knit characters all had each other’s backs and would literally walk though fire to support one another.Ultimately, the BREATHLESS trilogy is a scintillating series that steals your heart, tugs at the emotions and makes you smile in delight.

Gabe, Jase, and Ash are three best friends and business partners. They play hard and live free, don't take no for an answer for what they want. Gabe has always wanted Mia, but she is 14 years younger then him and his best friends little sister. What he does not know is she has secretly wanted him too. Jase and Ash share there women have lots of threesomes. Jase falls hard for Bethany after his threesome with her and Ash. Ash falls for the artist collared submission he see in the park. Can the men hold on to there women before they loose there trust ? Loved this series.

I was absolutely blown away and riveted by the first book and delved into the second book for a continuation of the story on Gabe and Mia but was disappointed when I discovered the book was a new story about her brother Jace. Don't get me wrong, it was a good book in itself. Fever was a little reminiscent of the plot line to Rush but still a good read and Burn, again reminiscent to Rush, was the story of Ash. Unfortunately, by the third book, I lost interest and just skimmed through the pages and to the end. Have to say I was disappointed in the ending as well. The four star rating is due ONLY to the first book. My only hope is that Maya Banks will write another book about the continuation of the characters of Gabe and Mia. I'd like to read about the engagement, wedding and life after.

I've read a few novels from Maya Banks, these ones I definitely didn't like. Gave them away.

The books appeared to be in great shape until I started reading first volume and discovered pages missing. Very disappointed ☹️

The first book is good. It will draw you in and keep you on the edge of your seat while you can't stop turning the page. The second book is readable at best. There are so many similarities in the stories it started to get annoying. The final book I couldn't even finish. It's the same story 3 times with 2 different chatacters. All 3 men had different perSonali ties in book 1 but by book 3, they all could easily be confused for the same man. My recommendation: read the first one and be done.

Three single, late 30's, strong alpha males, who are also best-friends & hotel owners (rich and handsome too) dominate three younger (20's) beautiful females. Each Male/Female has their own book... (Fever) Gabe/Mia, (Rush) Jace/Brittany, (Burn) Ash/Josie. The males want the females to be their submissives. Some threesomes with two males and a female. Some family drama/issues/twists along the way. Good, but very explicit sexual content.

Rush - So far I have only read one of these books, I admire anyone who can write a story but there was too many holes in this one. There is a scene in this book that no matter what, the heroine wouldn't have forgiven, and if her brother had known would never forgive. Plus, as the hero had known the heroine since she was a child, even with his own affection for that relationship he would never have put her in such a vulnerable and humiliating position, I'm sorry it was a bad scenario and didn't work for me. Spoiler alert - The hero ties the heroine naked in a hotel and basically hands her over to three men that he doesn't even have close ties with, he doesn't know them at all in fact, who does that? All because he's scared he loves the heroine. It rebounds big time in more than one way. The betrayal of trust is too huge and too easily forgiven, sorry fantasy went too far for me with this one.

4 stars for Rush. Good scenario. Good read until 60-70%. Tailed off as became predictable.3.5 stars for Fever. Too many explanations of feelings. Speed read. Too much sex!!!4.5 stars for Burn. Better story. Very long winded explanations, though.

Really enjoyed these books..... There were plenty of hot scenes and lots to keep you hooked and addicted to finishing! Great characters great stories
