Breathless
Ole Miss grad Melissa Brock Mason has everything a striking, blonde southern belle could aspire to: a plum job as a CFO, a doting Steel Magnolia of a grandmother, and, most importantly, the consuming love of her dashing new husband, Quinton Robert Pierson, who seems so perfectly suited for her that many refer to them as Barbie and Ken. However, things are not as sparkling as they seem below the Mason Dixon line, and sunny days soon descend into a heart of darkness from which Melissa may very well not emerge. Breathless, Tonya Sharp Hyche's latest high-suspense novel with a deliciously southern drawl, once again layers heart-racing intrigue with shimmering foreign climes to whip up a thriller of a southern dish that, like murder, is served deliciously cold. As the story takes off, Melissa herself is preparing for the dream wedding to Quinton at her family manse, with friends Alison Roeske and Amanda Fields at her side. However, things between Melissa and Quinton have already taken on a complex, unnerving undertone. On their honeymoon, her newlywed's controlling ways intensify, and by the time they have their first child, Quinton's veneer as Mr. Right is increasingly sullied by deceit, abuse, and even murder. Melissa soon finds that she has no recourse but to move to the other side of the world to Queensland, Australia in order to escape the threat of her menacing husband. She begins life anew with her young son Dillon in a cozy little beach town. However, her blissful new beginnings are soon destroyed when the past returns with one phone call. With blood-pumping suspense and richly spun detail, Breathless is part high-octane thriller and part absorbing romance, offering readers a smart, charming heroine who has the softness to allure and the razor sharp will to take on the most diabolical of sociopaths and fight for everything she holds dear. It's a spellbinding, far-flung adventure that will enthrall anyone who relishes a fast-paced read with a gorgeously feminine side.

About the Author

Tonya Sharp Hyche was born and raised in Alabama, but has lived most of her adult life in Texas. Tonya has been married over twenty-two years to her husband Steve and has two boys, Dustin and Dylan.

Tonya is a graduate of the University of Alabama with a bachelor degree in Secondary Education. Upon graduation, Tonya's husband Steve moved their young family to The Woodlands, Texas. While living in The Woodlands, Tonya taught high school history for over ten years.

In August of 2010, Steve moved Tonya and their youngest son Dylan to Shelly Beach, Queensland Australia. Since moving to a foreign country, Tonya has had the luxury and time to live out one of her dreams and write novels. In December of 2010, Tonya began writing and is currently working on her fifth novel Intersection of Lies, set to release in late November 2012.

Tonya is the author of Swept Away, Just For You, Breathless, & Fearless ( Sept. 2012). Since living in Queensland for almost two years now, her hobbies have changed since living in the States and watching college football and NASCAR. Now Tonya enjoys watching her youngest son play rugby and trying to figure out all the rules. On weekends the family spends most of their time fishing off the coast of Caloundra on their jetskis. During the week, Tonya enjoys writing and walking her Jack Russell along the beautiful coastal trails of the Pumicestone Passage and Caloundra. Writing has given Tonya the opportunity to travel around Queensland with her husband Steve's job and meeting the locals and seeing the beautiful sites of Queensland. Tonya and her family plan to return to the states in 2014. Currently she resides with her family in the beautiful coastal suburb of Pelican Waters, Queensland.
