Review:

Needless to say, I love Gabe! This book is told from a few different points-of-view. First, we have Jessica, a young girl getting ready to graduate high school with her best friend. She's smart, funny, and in love with her best friends brother, Gabe. She has known Gabe most of her life and even lives with him and his family while her dad is away. FUN! They have some great times together and their friendship is ready to go to the next level.

Now, as for Gabe, yeah he is pretty incredible! He's sexy, athletic, and sweet. He's had feelings for Jessica for a while and they both seem to be in the place where those feelings are coming to the surface. I loved the family vibe in this story. I could really sense the connection between everyone.

But, even after Jessica and Gabe end up together, things don't stay perfect for long. Something happens that puts their love to the test. I won't do into details on it but it drastically changes their relationship and the way Jessica sees her life.

I was loving every single word of this book in the beginning. The scenes were super hot, the characters had personality and chemistry, and the plot was flowing nicely. That doesn't really change, but I just lost focus during the end of the novel. A new character steps in and I just didn't feel as connected with him or his story. He was okay, but his POV felt a little unnecessary to me. Either way, this is a wonderful New Adult novel and I do plan to read the next book in the series.

Teaser
I stand there, nervously tugging at the hem of my top when he stands and walks toward me. Pressing his body flush against mine, grabbing my hips he whispers, “Miss me already?” He’s so close I have to tilt my head to look up at him. Timidly, I slide my hands up his bare chest and around the back of his neck. With piercing eyes he stands staring down at me intently. My breathing is shallow, and nerves swarm in my belly as I gently pull him down to me.

Looking up at him, I close my eyes as he presses his lips to mine. Slowly he moves his lips back and forth across mine. His tongue finds the smallest opening and urges my lips apart, and his kiss becomes more intimate. I gasp as he alternates between light, gentle and intense, deep kisses. My legs shake slightly as my body is overcome by the intensity of this moment. We are both breathing erratically when he drags his lips away from mine.

“I should go,” I say in a hush.

Pressing one last kiss to my lips he whispers, “I don’t want you to.” I reach behind me grasping the doorknob, “I know, but I need too.” I slip out of Gabe’s room and cross the hallway back to mine.
