Content & Trigger Warnings for BREATHE

Your reading experience matters to me.

BREATHE is a supernatural dark romance that explores love, survival, healing, found family, and what it means to reclaim your life after someone has tried to take control of it.

Because this story ventures into some darker places along the way, I want readers to have the opportunity to know what they may encounter before deciding whether BREATHE is right for them.

Please take care of yourself and read at your own comfort level.

Content & Trigger Warnings

BREATHE contains themes and situations that may be difficult for some readers, including:

• Emotional and psychological abuse

• Intimate partner violence (non-graphic but present)

• Gaslighting and coercive control

• Stalking and threats

• Destruction of personal work/property

• Trauma responses and PTSD

• Food restriction and body control by an abusive partner (discussed not in detail)

• Fear, panic responses, and hypervigilance

• Blood, vampirism, and supernatural violence

• Dark themes involving loss of autonomy (addressed through healing and consent)

Please Read With Care

While BREATHE contains dark subject matter, at its heart, this is also a story about survival, recovery, found family, chosen connection, and learning what it means to feel safe again.

Some of these themes are important parts of the story and the heroine’s journey, so I don’t want a reader to encounter them unexpectedly.

There is never any pressure to read something that may negatively affect you. Skip a scene, put the book down, or decide that BREATHE simply isn’t the right book for you. Your well-being comes first.

For those who choose to step into this world with me, I hope you find something within these pages that stays with you long after you’ve finished.

Take care of yourselves, readers. 🖤
