Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 12 23, 2013
Concealed is the second books in the Hidden From Love series, though I read it as a stand-alone novel. I was given the novel in PDF format by the author!Alexis and Gabe spent a few passionate and raw months together in Afghanistan but now Alexis is doing her best to forget their time together and return to reality; leaving the fantasies of Gabe as far behind her as she can manage.Gabe, however, can't forget Alexis, the time they spent together, and the promise she made to him. And when she doesn't meet him as she had said she would, he finds her.This story is great, even as a series book, it truly does stand alone. You're caught up enough on the backstory so as not to be confused or feel as if you've missed something. I didn't even realize it was a series at first! For that fact alone, in my book, this novel gets mad props! ;)The writing is also effortless, witty, and real. I enjoy the dialogue between characters and the alternate points of view. It really does give the reader a great 360 perspective on everything going on.The love story is both sweet and sexy. Though not for a lack of complications! This couple has survived far worse together than trying to navigate the ins and outs of a relationship, yet it seems they may both be more comfortable with fighting for their lives than their love at times. And who could blame them?! They face many obstacles in pursuit of their happily ever after.Gabe is a bit rough around the edges but he's certainly no less desirable for it. He knows what he wants and he's not afraid to go after it. Alexis, on the other hand, is afraid to admit what she really wants. Only when Gabe is transplanted inconveniently into her well planned life, is she able to throw caution to the wind once more and let her heart lead the way.
