  I enjoyed this book, it was pretty fast moving and it seemed a bit predictable in the story line, but that said it was still well written and captivating enough to keep readers there till the end. I'm really just not a big fan of romance novels, which this definitely is, so that part of the story line didn't capture my attention as much. The mystery of the mine did though! I would say its definitely worth a read!

With every Breath

With Every Breath, by Elizabeth Camden. Kate's only chance at college was winning a scholarship. Her family simply just didn't have the money to be able to send her. Trevor had the ability to afford college on his own, after all he was rich. It came down to the last competition and in the end Trevor stole the competition and her chance at attending college. Her rival had beat her. Her head for numbers served her well though as a statistician, Trevor always remembered her talent with numbers and her fiery attitude, so when he was looking for someone to work with him in searching for a cure for tuberculosis he knew Kate was the one to help. She agrees and they work side by side trying to save the lives of patients as well as warding off those who'd like to see their work ruined and throw in a bit of romance as well!
  This was an interesting book to read, I loved how the main characters interacted with each other. Kate's sarcastic streak when it came to Trevor was pretty funny. They're a pair you knew were just too much a like to be separate for long!| I did find the story could move a little slow in some parts. But the book overall was too interesting to put down! Elizabeth Camden did a great job at ensuring her readers would be there till the end!
