Gabe and Effie have an undeniable attraction to each other, however neither believe they should act on it as Gabe has secrets and Effie is leaving after having to find a new job away from home. I just loved how these two were weary of how they feel about each other but slowly give in to temptation as well as open up to each other so they get to know the real them. They both have issues to deal with both the present and passed and the more time they spend together either just the two of them or with his siblings Ariel and Raphael the more they connect and you along with them which in turn makes you worried about when the other shoe will drop and who for first! This is definitely a page turner where you don't know what will happen next, you want to know who the bad guys are as well as Gabe and Effie's past and if they can make it together.
