Take My Breath Away

Maya Ivkin's mom died of cystic fibrosis, a disorder that affects the lungs, when she was twenty-six. Unfortunately, Maya didn’t just inherit her mother’s eyes. At only twenty, she fears each day she's getting closer to her last. She has sworn off maintaining relationships with everyone besides her father and sister and refuses to let anyone in, including her consultation clients, who she guides through everyday life crises. She's as brutally honest as one should be when their days are numbered. Saying exactly what's on her mind helps her clients but remains tiresome for her family. Then Rico shows up and puts up with her attitude. He seems sweet, but she doesn't quite trust him. Maya digs in, trying to figure him out. And in the process, she feels something she's never felt before: alive. She swore she'd never subject anyone else to the sorrow her sister and dad will feel when she passes. But Rico makes her feel. Can she stop him from breaking down her walls?
