Rating: 5 out of 5

My Take on this Journey:Gio is the outstanding sequel to Noah, the second book of the 5th Street Series.I didn't think Noah could be topped, but hold onto your seats!  Ms. Reyes will take you on the ride of your life.  The scenes are exciting beyond belief.  You will feel as though you are a voyeur living through the looking glass of someone else's steamy love affair.Gio is gorgeous, built like no other, six pack and all.  He has a dangerously sexy look, the penetrating green eyes, the huge dimples, and a smile that can melt the panties off the girls with but a single crooked grin.  Gio is a boxer, until a tragedy occurs in the ring, that makes him question everything in his life.  He decides to go on sabbatical to one of his childhood friends, Felix's mountain view estate to help him train.When Gio arrives to help train Felix for the next few months for an upcoming professional boxing match, he runs into Felix's girlfriend, Bianca.  Gio finds out that he and Bianca are going to be sharing the house for the next two months, while Felix is in and out with promoting his upcoming boxing match. Bianca turns out to be a girl from his high school days in which they shared an unrequited crush for each other.  Bianca still retains the innocence that she once had, which still mystifies Gio.The chemistry is flying between both Gio and Bianca.  Yet, they both are fighting the mutual attraction at all costs, because of their loyalties towards Felix.  As time goes by, over and over again they are thrown into situations that make this feat seem impossible.  They become completely enthralled with one another other as time goes by.Throw the paparazzi into the mix, that are there at every turn, and you end up with exciting spell bounding adventure, with lust, sexual tension, and an electric undercurrent beyond words.  This story of love and passion has so many twists and turns till the journey comes to a nail biting climax.This is another page turner for Ms. Reyes.  Everyone loves a bad boy who strives to become the good guy for that once in a lifetime woman.  Gio is just that guy!  Can he change his womanizing ways of his past?  Read it and see!!My rating on Gio is 5+ HOT stars!!!
