The emotional turmoil of Gio and Bianca kept me in suspence! When an attraction is so strong and connection deep, how can you resist coveting somone who is with someone else? The internal battles Gio and Bianca fight are what I imagine happen to us out side of literature. Elizabeth is touching on the social relationships that are controversial in society with this series. In Noah the first book of this series touches on a woman and dating a younger man and now with a friend sensentially "stealing" his friend's girl. Though I rooted for Gio throughout this book and hung on to every word and on every page, I was annoyed that Bianca didn't just break up with Felix, to end their relationship so that she could be with Gio guilt free. I wanted so badly for their guilt to go away so that they could be together without the thoughts of Fleix in their minds. I understood Gio's conflict with Felix being his friend and the risk he was taking with that relationship. His friends are his family and his decision to give in to his feelings for Bianca was one not easily made. For Bianca, she thought she knew she was "in" love with Felix, but there is a difference. Her realization between the 2 emotions was well written and the regret she felt of telling Felix was real. There is love and then there is Love. I look forward to the next book in this series, which I can only guess will be Abel. Mrs. Reyes is an author that will not disappoint and is one of my most favorite. I know of people who read this book in one night!
