“The Air I Breathe by Karen Baney is a contemporary romance. It serves as the first book in the Steadfast Love series. Kelly Sutton uproots her and her daughter’s lives when life forces her to make tough decisions. Moving closer to her daughter’s father seems like the right choice. However, the stress causes her to have panic attacks. Enter Matt Dixon, a financial analyst by day, seminary student, and intern at his church in his remaining time. As a roommate to Kyle, Kelly’s daughter’s father, he is the only one who can help Kelly when she has her first panic attack. This book illustrates the costs and difficulties Christians can face daily. Karen Baney does an exceptional job creating characters I wanted to get to know and see overcome their past. Forgiveness is an easy word, but living it is much more difficult. This book will keep you reading with twists, turns, reconciliation, and more. So, if you enjoy contemporary romances, check out The Air I Breathe by Karen Baney for yourself. I definitely recommend it. I personally recommend it and cannot wait to read the next book in the series. I received a complimentary copy of this book, but this in no way influenced my review. All opinions are my own.”
