Out of Breath (The Breathing Series #3)

Out of Breath by Rebecca Donovan is the much-anticipated, explosive and stunning finale in The Breathing Series.

Reason to Breathe and Barely Breathing , the first two books in the trilogy, are both US bestsellers. All fans of Jodi Picoult and new adult authors such Colleen Hoover, Tammara Webber and Abbi Glines will love Rebecca Donovan's incredible writing. A must-read.

Those she trusted betrayed her. Her broken heart still wounds her. Only love can save her.

Emma can't even think about trusting others in her life again. She can't let anyone in, not when she knows all they'll find is darkness. But some people won't let go; won't take no for an answer and Emma has to decide whether the hidden truths and painful secrets are enough to let go of the possibility of love. Forever.

—— New Yorker

A highly entertaining romp; [Ridgway's] historical details are accurate, and the characters are believable. Fans of Diana Gabaldon's "Outlander" series should enjoy this time-traveling romantic adventure, which may also attract readers who like historical fiction with a twist.

—— Library Journal

A compelling race through time in a historical world turned upside down-the Regency as you've never seen it before. Take one nobleman and one gently born lady; add time travel, intrigue, a vast conspiracy, and a wicked way with words; shake; and serve.

—— Lauren Willig, author of The Pink Carnation series

While on its shining surface The River of No Return is a fantastical time traveling page turner, it is also a novel that takes on complex issues of culture and nationalism and how or memories form us. And it is a riveting love story to boot. Bee Ridgway is a treasure and her debut is a triumph.

—— Jennifer Gilmore, author of Golden Country and Something Red

The River of No Return is an innovative and sophisticated first novel. At the heart of this entertaining story--set primarily and convincingly in Regency-era England--is a serious and timely question: what does it mean to be on the winning side of history?

—— William Galperin, Professor of English, Rutgers University, and author of The Historical Austen

The only thing more fun than reading this book would be to actually travel through time yourself. Erudite and beautifully crafted, The River of No Return is at the same time a lush, riotous fantasy. Ridgway's ingenuity and charm are apparently without limit.

—— Heather Love, R. Jean Brownlee associate professor in the humanities, University of Pennsylvania, and author of Feeling Backward

Fielding’s comedic talent remains undimmed.

—— Nicola Shulman , Mail on Sunday

—— Jenna Bush Hager , Today

Fresh, frantic and very funny.

—— Fanny Blake , Woman & Home

Long-awaited.

—— Reader's Digest

Bridget is back! ... The third book in the series does not disappoint, taking the reader on a whirlwind tour of Bridget's life as a 50-something, and all the highs, lows, tears and laughter that you'd expect.

—— The Bristol Magazine

What remains unchanged – and addictive – is its diary format.

—— The Lady

Life may have changed dramatically for Bridget, but you can still prepare to laugh and cry at Helen Fielding’s latest novel.

—— No 1 Magazine

Fans of the original books have not been, and will not be, disappointed.

—— Chris White, fiction buyer for Waterstones , UK Press Syndication

Tender, touching and often hilarious – a welcome return.

—— Sara Lawrence , Daily Mail

Bridget is as hopeless, loveable and funny as ever.

—— Stylist

An uproariously funny novel of modern life, Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy is the triumphant return of our favourite Everywoman.

—— UK Press Syndication

Laugh-out-loud funny, as well as punctuated by moments of genuine sadness, which are proportionately balanced throughout the story.

—— Louise Denyer , Suffolk Magazine

Timely, tender, touching, witty, wise and bloody hilarious

Hilariously written

This book is an innocent pleasure, and made me laugh a lot
