Wow, Inhale, Exhale completely blew me away. I'm not even sure what the last book was that I gave 5 gavels(stars), but Inhale, Exhale earned every one of those 5 gavels! It is a standalone contemporary romance and holy cow it was so good! The plot, the characters, the romance- I just couldn't get enough. 
 Jillian and Grant make the most awesome couple. And Grant is the perfect book boyfriend. He is a great mix of smart, sweet, manly, and just the right hint of possessiveness that I like in my book guys. I loved how focused he was on his career, but as soon as he got to know Jillian, even as work driven as he was he just couldn't get her out of his head. It was beyond adorable watching him think about her all the time. Inhale, Exhale is a split point of view book, which I love, so it alternated between Jillian and Grant's point of view. I kind of wish we got to read a few more chapters from Grant's voice, but that is just because I am a sucker for great guy point of view. 
 Jillian was so interesting to me. As soon as she said she wanted to work in linguistics, I was pretty much hooked. This girl and I could be friends for sure. That is such a unique career choice and major choice. You can just tell that Jillian is the kind of girl that thinks about things. She has a great sense of humor and I loved that Jillian and Grant would stay up all night talking. Their conversations were Grants favorite thing! How awesome is that? 
 Sarah Ross' writing is flawless. I was immediately engaged in the story. I wasn't bored at all, there were no lulls or slow parts. The plot was so great. There were sub plots woven into the overall story of Jillian and Grant, including Jillian's deadbeat boyfriend, Christian. Man, I hated that guy! I just wanted him out of the picture ASAP. Especially after certain "developments" in the story. 
 If you are looking for a great new adult romance, this is it! It is steamy and sweet all at once. I loved Inhale, Exhale so much. Probably one of my favorite new adults books that I have read to date!
