Review: Fighting to Breathe (Shooting Stars #1) by Aurora Rose Reynolds

*****5 Stars*****
 
 
This is such a sweet story, if you liked Aurora Rose Reynolds' other books then you'll enjoy this one. It is unrelated to her other series', it's a stand alone with a spin-off book coming in 2016.
Lea and Austin were high school sweethearts with plans to get married straight after graduation, but when her fisherman father dies at sea she leaves her small Alaska town, leaving Austin also. Austin is planning to be a fisherman also, it's all he's ever wanted to be and Lea's worry that he's heading towards the same fate as her father sends her running.
Fifteen years later Lea is back in town to care for her mother who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. And with it being such a small town it's not long before she runs into Austin, and boy is he angry with her.
This is one of those lost love stories where they are reunited, I love these types of stories, they always give me the 'feels', all those wasted years, it's just tragic. And I certainly enjoyed this one, Lea and Austin are great characters, I totally fell in love with them. Austin is such a sweet guy, and since this is an Aurora book, he's an ultra alpha male so in my opinion that alone makes this book a must-read!

Lea Lamb and Austin Wolf were young when they fell in love. They never imagined the future could hold anything other than together-forever.

When Lea’s father dies in a tragic fishing accident, she's crushed under the weight of her grief and catches a glimpse of another type of future, one she knows she's not strong enough to face.

Austin is angry. For the past fifteen years, he's believed the woman he loved with every ounce of his soul left him without so much as a backwards glance.

When Lea unexpectedly returns to their hometown, all the years of heartache inside Austin bubbles to the surface and presents itself as blinding rage.

Faced with the truth about the past, a newly discovered secret, these former lovers will learn that if they want to have any chance at the future they’d given up on all those years ago, they will have to rescue one another from drowning in pain so debilitating it will leave them both fighting to breath.
