Absolutely Love this installment!!! Ms. Laurence took us through every possible emotion on this one. I got Camouflaged (Hiding from Love, .05) for free and as soon as I finished it I immediately bought Concealed.The story starts 2 years after Camouflaged. We find that Gabe has had enough of waiting and has decided to travel 4,000 miles to get his girl, only to find her back in a relationship with the boyfriend she vowed to leave for him. Alexis has a lot of pressure from her parents and her boyfriend Marco to get Gabe out of her system and come to her senses. But Gabe isn't having any of that. He moves in downstairs from her and immediately puts into action his plans to win her back.The story captured me from the first page of Camouflaged until the last period of Concealed with all the angst and steam with the ups and downs and with an authentic look inside a culture foreign to someone from Central California, like Gabe. Ms. Laurence didn't tie this story up with a neat statin bow, instead we got to see the messy insides of true love and the pressure family can put on a relationship that looks different from the interior of the family. Love Gabe and Alexis' story and can't wait to read Beth and Juan's story...
