This Week's Pick: Hold Me Like a Breath (Once Upon A Crime Family #1) by Tiffany Schmidt

Publisher: Bloomsbury

Release Date: May 19th, 2015

Penelope Landlow has grown up with the knowledge that almost anything can be bought or sold—including body parts. She’s the daughter of one of the three crime families that control the black market for organ transplants.

Penelope’s surrounded by all the suffocating privilege and protection her family can provide, but they can't protect her from the autoimmune disorder that causes her to bruise so easily.

And in her family's line of work no one can be safe forever.

All Penelope has ever wanted is freedom and independence. But when she’s caught in the crossfire as rival families scramble for prominence, she learns that her wishes come with casualties, that betrayal hurts worse than bruises, that love is a risk worth taking . . . and maybe she’s not as fragile as everyone thinks. (Summary from Goodreads)

I love this cover. Also, this title. Also, the concept of this book. Basically, I'm just really excited about Hold Me Like a Breath. It sounds creepy and atmospheric and romantic and maybe a bit coming-of-age-like. Essentially, everything I look for in a book. 

I cannot wait to get my hands on this one and read the heck out of it. (I also can't wait to get it signed and probably fangirl all over the place).

What are you waiting on this week?
