by A.L. Jackson (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 4,477 ratings

The stunning conclusion of Shea and Sebastian's rockstar duet from NYT and USA Today bestselling author A.L. Jackson

The danger in pretending is it becoming real...

Sebastian Stone, Sunder front man and guitarist with a rap sheet about ten miles long, escaped to Savannah, Georgia, to get away from the trouble he’d caused.

Not find more of it.

The moment he saw Shea Bentley, he saw beneath all her sweet and innocence to something that went deeper.

Darker.

Their relationship was built on secrets; their love built on lies.

Sebastian never imagined how deep her secrets went.

When the past and present collide, Sebastian and Shea find themselves fighting for a future neither believed they deserved. Their passion is consuming and their need unending.

Now, holding the truth in his hands, Sebastian is faced with sacrificing everything he’s come to love to protect Shea and his family.

Two pasts intertwined.

Two lives bound.

Will their demons drown them or will Shea and Sebastian finally learn to breathe?

Drowning to Breathe is the conclusion to Shea and Sebastian's 2-part duet. Their story began in A Stone in the Sea.

Simply AMAZING
I absolutely loved this book, it was a beautiful and heart wrenching conclusion to A Stone In The Sea. A.L. Jackson has a way of making you feel like a spell has been cast over you, you feel like you are wound up in all of the feels of the characters. I found at times I was holding my breath in anticipation of what was going to happen next. I love Sebastian and Shea and Kallie and the entire cast of supporting characters minus one truly awful Martin Jennings.

    Bleeding Stars Series (A Stone in the Sea & Drowning to Breath)
    by A.L. Jackson ~ 5 Stars

    “Love of a voice that was never really heard. Love of a face that was never really seen.”

    WOW! WOW! What a story! Devoured both books in 2 days. So, here is the thing: I met this beautiful author in Vegas before I read any of her books – she was so nice and gracious btw … I have this series on my kindle and I cannot believe I waited this long to start ;( I am not going to be able to stop now… onto Where Lightning Strikes as soon as I am done with this review.

    Sabastian is a lead singer and guitarist for the band Sunder. He and the band have it all – fans, fame and fortune. But Sabastian’s life is not perfect by a mile – he has a painful past that causes regrets, bitterness and a frequent temper which stems from his protective nature toward his family. Recent altercations with an executive producer sent Sabastian straight to a retreat in Savannah hoping he could lay low while his team cleans up the mess in LA.

    Well, Sabastian was laying low alright!!! Wink wink wink One night out at a bar he met a beautiful waitress Shea Bentley. He was drawn to her right away and could not help but want to know Shea more. Shea has no time for distractions – she has responsibilities and also despises the lifestyle of a rock star. But Shea’s body and heart are betraying her mind – will she succumb to the bad mysterious rock star?

    “He was both the sun and the darkest night. A promise of heaven and the curse of hell.”

    Here’s the catch though -- Sebastian and Shea both have an abundance of secrets between them. Life is complicated, and when past secrets come to light will they be able to trust each other again? God knows everyone else (with the exception of his bandmates and her close friends) is jaded with lies and deceit.

    A Stone in the Sea ended with a major cliff-hanger – no spoilers here… you just have to read!

    The second book picks up where Sabastian finds out who the real Shea is. He could not deal with it. He ran out and left Shea devastated and broken hearted. This is a part where I was really mad at Baz for not thinking things through before leaving – but that’s how Baz is, a hot temper and hard headed. Thankfully it did not take him long to pull his head out of his arse and grovel his way back to Shea. So, the make-up part is always fun and HoT But Baz and Shea both realize that they are so much stronger as a unit and they are determined to get their life back together, to bring down those that wronged them. Justice prevailed in the end. Pretty sweet!!!

    “But we can run as hard and as fast as we want, and until we put our pasts to rest, they will always catch up to us.”

    I really love both main characters in this book, even the secondary characters and I am very excited to read about them in the next book. Shea is a strong woman. Despite what she endured in the past she was able to move on and take care of her daughter. I like the fact that she did not heat up the sheets with Baz right away – she is not playing games. Shea is genuinely concerned about attachment to someone who might not in it for a long run – she wants to protect her heart as well as her daughter’s happiness. Baz is sexy, talented, damaged but an amazing guy despite his temper. Deep down Baz is loyal, devoted, caring and protective of those he loves even if it means putting himself in vulnerable situations.

    Shea and Baz’s story is touching, beautiful, emotional, and full of angst. At times, my heart hurts for them both … Their love for each other, however, is gorgeous - quite passionate, heart-felt, and sexy. The chemistry is very intense and scorching hot. There are also many cute, sweet and tender moments throughout the book, especially surrounding Kallie. Melted my heart how cute and innocent she is.

    This is the first time I read AL Jackson’s books. It did take me a few chapters to get used to her writing style. I was a little bit distracted at first with the repeated words but I quickly attributed that to the poetic way she tells her story. It’s just her style. It’s gorgeous and I am totally digging it.

    No doubt this is a fantastic read! AL Jackson, it is so nice to finally meet you and your beautiful characters!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your stories and cannot wait for more to come!!!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Dragged On For A Little Too Long . . . 😕
    Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    Unfortunately, I think A.L. Jackson should stick to one book a couple & not split one story into 2 books . . . This book just felt like it dragged on too long, just too fit a page-count or something . . . Don’t get me wrong, I liked it, BUT I didn’t LOVE it like I did her other books . . . Hence, the 4-star rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, instead of giving it 5 stars. But towards the middle, I just felt like, “Okay, get on with the story already . . . I wanna just get to the end already . . . To know how it all ends . . . ” And it had very little “spice” 🌶️ (if you know what I mean 😉), too . . . Especially, the wedding night scene (yes, Baz, the MMC, & Shea, the FMC, get married; I don’t consider this much of a spoiler since this is how most Romances go) . . . No “spice” on the wedding night!! I was like, “C’mon!” . . . The really “spicy” scene came AFTER the wedding night, but still . . . It left me feeling just a TAD disappointed . . . 🥺 But, luckily, A.L. Jackson seemed to learn her lesson after this book; the rest of the books in the series all seem to be only about one couple each. Another thing that seemed kind of forgotten about is that Kallie, Shea’s little daughter, didn’t seem to have any questions after her *jerk* (I would use a MUCH stronger & meaner word here, but I don’t wanna cuss in my review 😅) of a birth-father just yanked her away from her home in the middle of the night (again, I don’t consider this much of a spoiler since this is where the last book ended) . . . Like, “What?! She didn’t have ANY questions AT ALL?! Really?!” Maybe all the questions happened off the page, but still . . . I would have liked to see at least SOME of Shea’s answers to those questions that Kallie clearly WOULD have . . . Also, I thought it was gonna be a big, long custody battle where all the *jerk* of an ex's (Kallie's birth-father) dirty, little secrets were gonna be discovered in COURT, but, nope, NONE of that happened . . . Was also a little disappointed about that . . . 😕 All in all, though, I DID like it, like I said & will be continuing the series! 👍🏻☺️

    5.0 out of 5 stars Epic book hangover!!!
    Reviewed in Australia on April 30, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    “I never knew there was happiness like this. And then there was you.”

    In this stunningly beautiful EPIC conclusion to Stone in the Sea, AL Jackson embarks us on a journey of unconditional love, family, and greed. Where love and family can overcome life's obstacles. Where the past rears its ugly head with devastating consequences. Where greed runs so deep that nothing stands in its way. This story continues from the gut wrenching cliffhanger of Stone in the Sea where Sebastian and Shea are faced with their past and present colliding together.

    Sebastian, the brutally beautiful loyal man who would do anything to protect, stand and fight for this family. The hard, tortured, dark soul who had the biggest, purest heart. Who loved so passionately and unconditionally. Who was so noble he didn't believe he was ever good enough for Shea. Who believed she deserved so much more than him. Who thought that his world would ruin and taint their lives. Who was willing to sacrifice his life for Shea and Kallie. It shattered my heart to see Sebastian punishing himself with such anger, regret and remorse.

    "All along I’d known I was bad for her. All. Along. There wasn’t anything right in my life, so how could I be right for her?"

    And yet when this powerful man loved, he did it so wholeheartedly. So fervently. So purely. His all-consuming love for Shea and Kallie was overwhelming. He loved them with so much devotion. My heart melted for his love of Kallie, his little bug. He loved her so purely as if she were his own.

    " “Do you want to know what I see when I look at you, Sebastian? I see someone who takes the burden of the entire world and places it on his shoulders because he somehow thinks he deserves that weight. The one who’d bear it all if it meant those he loves would suffer a little less. I see someone who’s made mistakes just like the rest of us. Just like me. I see someone who maybe on the outside looks a little frightening. But what I’m frightened of most is how intensely he makes me feel.” She touched her chest. “I see a man who’s loyal. Devoted. One who opened himself up enough to a love a little girl who isn’t even his. I see the man who caused me to fall so hard I didn’t know what hit me. I see a man I’d needed so badly, yet hadn’t even known it until he showed me what I was missing. I see the one I love.” "

    As their story unfolds, the love and bond between Sebastian and Shea only continues to grow stronger. But the impending collision of their past continues to linger, threatening to unravel their perfect world. How is it possible that the evil, selfish actions of others could have such a catastrophic, destructive impact on their lives? Is their love enough to fight the horrors of the past?

    ""Life with you is good, Sebastian. As long as we make it that way. I don’t care what lies they tell or what they believe. Just as long as it means I get to spend my life with you""

    AL Jackson once again delivers a powerful narrative with words so poetic and descriptive that I felt completely immersed. My heart ached. My heart broke. These characters became a part of me. I felt so much love and joy for each of them. Thank you AL Jackson for writing such a beautiful, unforgettable story.

    I have to start off by saying, I read this book months ago when it came out and thought I left a review back then. Happen to come back looking for my review only to find, I rated it 5 stars but didn't write my review.
    I loved this book and series. The ups and downs from book one for Sebastian and Shea continue on and the suspense grows plus their love for each other. With all the ups and downs, their love for each other never wavers...
    I loved the continuation of their love story and even though it's the end for their books, I'm sure not for their love.

    4 to 4,5 stars.

    I've got time to write something about this wonderful story, finally!

    I gave 5 stars for “A stone in the Sea” and I could not wait to read the second book. AL Jackson never ever ended her books on a cliffhanger and she had to do it with Baz and Shea's story! Grrrr.

    It goes without saying I did a happy dance when my preordered Drowning To Breathe downloaded on my kindle in the wee hours of the morning. Sadly, I had to work and wait a looong time before reading it.

    I loved the book as I had all my answers about Shea’s past, enjoyed the dynamic between the band members, Shea’s new family and got to witness the sweet and fierce love Baz had for his Little Bug.
    That hunk of a man is soo beautiful inside/out and he does not even see it! I wanted to kick him too when he took some wrong decision, ratcheting my heart rate in the process.

    So, why not give it 5 stars too? Because the mystery and intensity of the first book were somewhat subdued. Baz and Shea know they’ll stay together so we’re not always wondering “will they or will they not?” therefore lessening the urgency of their relationship. But that’s the only complain I have about this book. Don’t worry, you’ll enjoy plenty of twists and turns and cross your fingers more than once! And you won’t have a cliffhanger, promise.

    I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.

    Zuallererst, im Gegensatz zu einigen anderen Rezensenten finde ich den zweiten Teil genauso gewaltig schön wie den Ersten.
    Aus jeder Seite, jeder Zeile und jedem Wort tropfen Emotionen mit einem Ausmaß, die mich erschüttert, mitgerissen und vereinnahmt haben.

    Ich war gefangen in einer Geschichte voller Wut, Aggression, Schönheit, Hoffnung und Liebe, vor allem Liebe.
    Shea und Sebastian kämpfen um ihre Verbundenheit und finden in ihrer eigenen Vergangenheit das Böse, welches sie mit aller Inbrunst bekämpfen.
    Die Autorin hat eine ganz besondere Art zu schreiben, sehr intensiv und überwältigend. Ich habe mit den Charakteren gelitten und bis zum Ende gehofft. Sie hat außergewöhnlich starke Persönlichkeiten erschaffen und ihnen mit sehr vielen echten Emotionen Leben eingehaucht.
    Das war mal wieder ein Buch, welches ich endlos hätte weiterlesen können.
    Schade, dass die weiteren Teile bisher nicht übersetzt sind. Ich würde sie alle lesen.
    Für mich war diese Geschichte von Shea und Baz ein wahrhaftiges Feuerwerk für alle Sinne, und deshalb muss ich eine Leseempfehlung geben.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The Brilliant A. L. Jackson.! 5*+
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 30, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    Having only just recently downloaded these two books in (The Bleeding Stars Series) I was able to read one after the other which I was extremely grateful for because the way A Stone in the Sea ended was shear torture.
    Talk about TROUBLE, that's what it was from the very first page of Drowning to Breathe, of course it opened up from where the previous book ended and to say the level of anticipation, hesitation and anxiety was high, that's an understatement it was all there and it was only the beginning of the second book.
    Shea and Sebastian's story continues to rock our world, with everything they endure especially at the hands of Martin Jennings who is truly a dreadful person, as he continues to reek havoc on Shea and Sebastian's life all we can do is hope for the best but that doesn't come until the very end.
    A.L. Jackson goes above and beyond with delivering us great stories and Shea and Sebastian's was no exception, I've been on the edge of my seat for most of the time especially this book, it almost gets unbearable to read towards the end you're on tenter hooks, holding your breath and at this very point I was already wondering how long are we going to have to wait before Where Lightening strikes comes out, like I said this author leaves you wanting more all the time and I hadn't even finished this book for goodness sakes.!
    Drowning to Breathe is not just a beautiful love story it's a lot more, all the secondary characters play a brilliant part good or bad, the situation with Austin is extremely sad and worrying and as for Sebastian you couldn't ask for someone more committed to the ones he loves.
    Shea and Sebastian got their happy ending and we got a beautiful epilogue and I take great comfort in knowing that we have a lot more instalments in this series but if these two books are anything to go by we need to make sure we are prepared.!!
    Thank you for bringing us this brilliant series.!
