My Last Breath
Melanie and James are an unlikely match when they meet one night in a southern bar, at the hand of his younger sister. Melanie is a northern girl and is shy, sophisticated, and reserved. While James, an intelligent student in Yale's science department, is accustomed to his untamed southern roots and is flirtatious and outgoing. However, they quickly form a bond that is unbreakable and will come to define both of their lives. James is on his way to becoming a NASA pilot, while Melanie—fearless, smart, and ready to take on anything—is still finding her way in the world. But this isn’t just any romance and is not without its share of heartache. James isn’t so ready to settle, though he knows Melanie is the only one for him. Will his wild spirit and the life of planes and the military that James chooses—and loves so fiercely—be their undoing?

After reading this book, I'm choosing it for my Summer Reading Club book for teens/adults.
This book entails so many of the emotional and situational problems that teenagers and some adults experience in their lifetimes...in one form or another. The characters are believable and although they make mistakes, the author shows how important the support of family and friends are to getting through difficult times. The way they "get through" difficult times are very healthy ways to solve problems and mature by making love, faith and hope the key ingredients to their healing process. The author manages to weave in problems that military families face and help the reader think about how their lives differ from civilian life and add a new appreciation of their efforts and sacrifices for our country.
I think it's a very worthwhile read especially for booktalks,, but I'd advise keeping a packet of tissues handy as the characters do pull at the heartstrings at times. Thank you Meg!
