Save Your Last Breath focuses on all the different characters in the Morgan Dane series. The book has heart and soul. Each characters has a life real with people who love them. The story brings out the joy, excitement, passion and loss in life.

Melinda Leigh is able to find way to pull at readers heart strings while bringing them a end that will have them hoping the Morgan Dane series continue.

This book isn't nearly as good as the last book in the series and might have people scratching their head why would anyone create this type of plan. Whoever the writing top notch, with the perfect about of details with characters from her different books.

This isn't a stand alone novel but readers will be able to figure the basic story but the characters that Melinda Leigh has woven though each and every book will have readers wishing they had started with book one.



Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher Montlake for the advance copy of Melinda Leigh Save Your Breath.

Love, love, love this book!!! The new pairing of Lincoln and Olivia and the mystery of her disappearance led for an exciting journey as Morgan and Lance raced to find her in time. Another mystery by Melinda Leigh that you won't be able to put down!!

Although it was bittersweet to read the last book in this series, it was a great ending for Morgan Dane! The characters who readers have grown to know and love are doing what they do best, solving a mystery. The kidnapping of an important character created a lot of suspense. I don't know how anyone will be able to see the ending coming!

This series is so so good! I highly recommend you read all the books and fall in love with these characters. Save Your breath by Melinda Leigh is full of mystery, suspense, and great character development. I received an ARC for my fair and honest review.

This book can be read as a stand-alone and is also the 6th in a series. I love this series and I’ve been hearing this book may be the last in the series which makes me sad because I have really enjoyed them all. A good clean Mystery with a little clean romance which is a big plus in my book. This writer does a great job with the story and descriptions of characters making you feel like you are there. Can’t wait to see what comes next if this is indeed the last in a series.

This is by far the best romantic suspense series out there! This book sees Sharp in need of help when his new lady love, reporter Olivia Cruz, disappears and is believed to have been kidnapped. Someone planted a bomb at the office and Morgan and Lance are considering postponing the wedding. Fast paced and highly intense.

Olivia’s job as a journalist was to seek the truth.The implications she has now learned about was unsettling, if she pursued, it could cost lives. A decision at forty eight, same with Lincoln,he owned a private detective agency, was their relationship exclusive. Awakening she fought the attacker, he seemed to remain calm, and then tossing her over his shoulder. She would fight, she would survive till Lincoln found her. What a rivitaing plot, and why and how this kidnapping took place, was great. Another winner for the author.
Given ARC for my voluntary review and my honest opinion by Net Galley and Montlake.

This is the latest book in this series and possibly the last ??
Although it can be read as a standalone , reading the previous books would be of benefit .

Lincoln's girlfriend , Olivia , an investigative reporter who recently signed a book deal , has gone missing .
Lance and Morgan , in the middle of wedding preparations , drop everything to help him find her before it is too late .
Who has taken her and why ?
Will the wedding be put on hold ?
There are many twists and turns in this fast paced thriller/romance which keeps the reader on the edge of the seat .

This is yet another great read by this Author ………… it manages to pull together threads left outstanding in previous books and appears to be the last in the series . I do hope that is not the case as I love the characters and am sure that they have more stories to tell .

I was given an ARC of this book by Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

100% highly recommend this fantastic series, with Save your Breath being the latest to be published.
I just love everything about this series, the characters are so well written you feel like you know them personally and yet again, the cases Morgan and lance are working are fantastic, more so in this one because this time it’s personal. Sharps girlfriend is missing and the trio pull out all the stops to find her safe.
Absolutely amazing, thank you Melinda Leigh for such an excellent series

SAVE YOUR BREATH by Melinda Leigh. Once again, Ms. Leigh grabs her readers and brings them right into the heart of the story. Olivia, who we met previously, is now dating Lincoln Sharp. She disappears and, boy, what a mystery we have on our hands. Morgan and Lance work furiously to help Sharp locate her in time. This book was a bit more personal in the sense that we know the victim (if you have read the previous works which I highly recommend). There is danger and suspense and a whodunnit throughout, keeping the reader guessing. I certainly guessed wrong, several times! I tend to be more of a romance junky, and this series does not focus on romance much- there is a bit, but not a lot. However, for me, Ms. Leigh's writing style, characters and plot lines keep me a avid fan. (received ARC from NetGalley for honest review)

Save Your Breath is the 6th book in the Morgan Dane series. This book can be read as a stand alone although the personal lives of the main characters, Morgan, Lance and Lincoln continue to evolve through each book. The romance in this romantic suspense series is subtle and more inference than description. The books concentrate more on the investigation and the people involved. Leigh's characters are likeable and real and keep the reader rooting for their success. In this instalment, Lincoln's girlfriend, Olivia, is a former investigative reporter who has signed with an agent to write a true crime book based on some of the cases she is researching. When Olivia goes missing, Lincoln, Lance and Morgan must find her before it's too late, all while Morgan and Lance are making their final wedding preparations.
These books appear to be well researched and it appears in references to laws and in the language and terms used. This author is able to keep the reader engaged right through to the exciting conclusion. A compelling read and unfortunately this seems to be the last in the series.
Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Melinda Leigh continues the story of Morgan Dane, Lane Kruger, Lincoln Sharp, et al with the sixth installment in the series, Save Your Breath. Fans of Melinda Leigh and the Morgan Dane series will find another winner in this most recent book in the series.

Olivia Cruz, true crime writer and girlfriend of Lincoln Sharp, has been kidnapped from her own bed in the middle of the night. The assailant took her by surprise and abducted her in her own car with her handbag and purse, but Olivia managed to leave a few clues and signs of struggle. When Olivia doesn't show to take her mother to an appointment, Sharp, Lance, and Morgan begin to search for her. As they begin to dig into her most recent research, they begin to wonder if Olivia has stumbled onto something that made someone want to get rid of her.

Save Your Breath was a fast paced page turner that kept me guessing until the end as to who had taken Olivia. I highly recommend this book for fans of Melinda Leigh and the Morgan Dane series; the book is best enjoyed as part of the series due to references to recurring characters and longstanding series plot points being referenced.

Another winner by Melinda Leigh She never fails to entertain. Journalist Olivia Cruz has been kidnapped. Nothing much was disturbed during the kidnapping, mussed bedding a broken nail and hopefully a little blood as she's carried into her garage is her only hope of leaving a clue. Her boyfriend is Lincoln Sharp owner of a private investigation firm. When Olivia fails to show up to take her mom to the doctors in the morning Lincoln knows this is not like her she is very responsible and concerned for her mother. His partners, PI Lance Kruger and defense attorney Morgan Dane who is also Lance's fiancée, quickly rush to Lincoln to help figure out where she could be. Lincoln becomes frantic as the days pass with no leads, no word, no report of an accident and no word from Olivia. The police aren't able to do much as there is no evidence of trouble or wrong doing. A broken fingernail and a few drops of blood don't mean she didn't leave on purpose. But Lincoln and Lance know something is wrong Her car may be gone but her much needed asthma medicine is still at her house. Waking up in a dark, damp room Olivia is confused and frightened. She fears for her life and just as concerning, will she be found before the dampness that triggers her asthma gets her first. Will we finally see Lance and Morgan get married or will the wedding need to be postponed again. They couldn't possibly get married with Olivia still missing. Thank you NetGalley Melinda Leigh and the publishers for allowing me to read this ARC this is my honest opinion of this book I highly recommend it. Excellent characters you can identify with, fast paced read, and enough drama and mystery to keep you reading and guessing who could have done this? Will Olivia be found in time?

This is one of my favorite series...and this one hits the main characters close to home as one of their own is in trouble and its all hands on deck.

Jump into this series here or from the beginning...you'll want to read back for the depth and growth of the characters, but there's a little recap here so that you won't be lost :)

Loved this one, just like the previous in the series thought I’m not sure if it was as good as the first one. Pre-ordered, full review when I’ve read it in print once ♥️

This is really well-written mystery series that always keeps me guessing. This book can be read as a stand-alone. I read this mystery in one sitting because I wanted to figure out whodunit.

Thanks to author for providing this copy through Netgalley

New author to me and I enjoyed a lot!!
Romantic suspense, thriller, a lot of twists, till the end I really didn't have any idea who the bad people are!
Sometimes it was a bit too technical language: some laws, expressions... But liked it anyway a lot.
No sex scenes

Boom!

This book was edge of your seat awesome. I love this series AND this author. And I have been trying to not read this book because I hate to say goodbye to characters that are so good. (And I am lucky enough to get an early copy for honest review)

I literally read this book in 3 hours. I was racing to find out what was going on. I love the characters, this series is about family, resilience and getting a second chance all the while solving interesting cases.

It was very cool that Sharp’s new love is the center of this book. Her disappearance is stumping them all and forcing Morgan, Lance and Sharp to race against the clock to find out where and why she’s gone. So many twists and turns all the while we await the wedding of Morgan & Lance!

Every single book in this series gets better and this one did not disappoint. I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next for this author!!!!

I am a huge fan of this series - this book did not disappoint. Sharp's journalist girl friend, Olivia, is kidnapped in the middle of the night. Together Morgan, Lance and Sharp must investigate her latest story, desperately searching for clues.
Great suspense, love these characters. Some areas dragged - bogged down with details.
Excellent read!

Another great book in the Morgan Dane series!!!! I've loved all 6 of them.

When Sharp's girlfriend Olivia is kidnapped, the hunt is on!!! This is a side of Sharp that up until now, we haven't witnessed. Its like being a part of a giant, wonderful, family!! All of the characters are awesome and I love how all of them an entwined.

We are taken on an edge of your seat, action packed adventure, that includes murder, attempted murder, escape, and medical issues with a few unexpected twists and turns.

I really, really hope this is not the end of the series because I need Sharp and Olivia's story - PLEASE Melinda!!!
