Can’t Catch My Breath by  Sarah Sutton January 26, 2021 Genres: Contemporary, Romance, Young Adult Addy Arden lives in a land called denial. After losing her dad in a car accident, she’d rather pretend things are okay than be crushed by grief and guilt. Her friends buy the fake smiles and her mom doesn’t seem to notice…or care. And Addy is doing great until she’s paired with Vincent Castello, the most intimidating senior at Greenville High, for a class project. Interview a random classmate and write a report on them. Should be easy, right? Not by a longshot. Because the car accident that killed Addy’s dad? It left Vincent’s father paralyzed. Talk about an awkward ice-breaker. As the two grow closer, can Addy face her grief and guilt head-on and put her past behind her, or will she let it consume her, and lose the guy who truly takes her breath away?
