REVISED + NEW COVER! Complete ebook series of the Just Breathe trilogy by Martha Sweeney.

The Just Breathe series is about a twenty-four-year-old woman named Emma Peterson who has made sure to have as much control over her life as she can since the death of her parents that occurred when she was sixteen. A fear of loss dominates Emma's mindset when it comes to relationships of all types, especially when it comes to men and dating. Emma doesn't date. Rather, she uses men for sex.

She's created eight golden rules to keep herself at a distance from men, particularly the men she sleeps with;
1. no dating or going out on dates,
2. never let them know where she lives,
3. never pick up a guy in a particular social setting that she may frequently attend or sleep with a man whom she may have the chance of running into on a regular basis,
4. never have a guy over to her apartment for any reason (her gay best friends are the only exceptions),
5. always end things before the guy starts to want more,
6. always use protection,
7. never sleep over at their place after sex, and
8. always have more than one exit strategy.

When Emma's best friend, Maggie, becomes involved with a new boyfriend, Emma's world changes radically. Maggie's relationship with Henry moves very quickly; faster than any of her previous relations and Emma is not excited about the newcomer to the group. On top of that, Henry's best friend, Joe Covelli, is the first man Emma has ever met who makes her call her own rules into question.

Emma embarks on a journey that tests her beyond the temptation of breaking her rules. She discovers that there's more to life than having control.

BESTSELLING Author Martha Sweeney presents her first historical romance set in England during the 1800s when the steam engine was first made available for public use.

At the age of twenty-four, Abigail becomes widowed and the sole survivor of the recently deceased Lord Quincy. Upon inheriting his estate, she becomes the first women to own property. Having been brought up on a farm with three brothers, Abigail knows what it takes to keep the business profitable. Strong willed and confident, Abigail is determined to prove herself capable. While trying to balance the Manor, the farm, an orphaned child, and her status in society, Abigail finds herself presented with love in the most unusual of places. Will she allow love into her life when it's staring her in the face?

A clean yet witty story about Lady Abigail Moss who is an independent woman every man desires and who every woman desires to be.

Jagger rules everything. The cities from the elite districts, to the slums, and everything in between are his domain in one of three sovereigns on the planet Jaru. The only law is Jagger Law which can change at any moment. One wrong look or word can get a body part chopped off or have you killed.

Since the beginning of the war, which was almost over three decades ago, the air has had been stale and musty, still smelling of burnt metal. All resources needed to survive are severely limited, causing many Jaruians to pillage one another just to get a single meal for the day.

There are some who wish to end Jagger's power and they've started to infiltrate his organization. Money, amongst other things, are just a farce that Jagger uses to dangle in front of his subjects to keep the population in line and distracted. Those who want to see the end of Jagger's reign want to take control over the depleting natural resources in order to save the planet and the Jaruian species.

Natalie gets caught up in Jagger's twisted game of power and control when she's taken from her sovereign. Against her will, like all women who are caught, Natalie is thrown into the Jaruian sex trade. With her new, unwanted job responsibilities, Natalie takes a stand, willing to die fighting for her life rather than be used. When an opportunity presents itself, is Natalie willing to do whatever it takes to free herself or remain only a pawn?

Orphaned at age sixteen, Emma, now twenty-four, has complete control of her life. She is a private, successful business woman who owns two companies and uses men for sex. When Emma's sexual itch arises, and there are no possible male suitors to fill her need, she finds alternative means. Emma keeps most people at a distance, especially the men she has sex with, except her two best friends, Maggie and Jared. She adheres to her eight golden rules that keep her safe and in complete control — rules that she started after having sex with the first man. Rules that keep her guarded, safe and free — but then, along came Joe Covelli.
