Book Review for Gabriel by Leah Sharelle



Title: Gabriel
Series: The Wounded Sons #1
Author: Leah Sharelle
Genre: Military Romance
Release Date: December 7, 2019

Gabriel Booth knew how his life was going to go.


First, he was going to follow in his father’s footsteps, become a soldier in the Australian Army, then lead his own commando team. His dreams and ambitions came true when he got handed the command of his own Tier 1 unit— Team FIVE.
After that, he wanted nothing more than to find that one special woman to share the same deep soul love and devotion his parents had. All his life, Gabriel watched his parents, saw the connection they had together, and wanted the same thing for himself.
That came true the day he came across a petite Pixie on a sand dune. With just one look at the stunning tiny woman, his world shifted, and the ache of wanting to be part of something special eased.
Devon Mercy never had it easy.
At the tender age of five, she lost her mother in horrible circumstances, yet on the same day, there was even more trauma to rock her and her family, changing their lives forever.
Her whole life had been a lonely battle. The love of her mother now gone as well as the support of her grief-stricken father. All she had were three overbearing brothers and a wish to be loved and cherished.
Then, she met Gabriel. Suddenly, she thought it was finally her time! Someone who loved her, wanted to spend time with her.
Just her.
Of course, life was never as easy as you wanted. Gabriel and Devon’s road was never going to be easy. His dangerous job and Devon’s secret just two obstacles in their way. The only problem was whose is more destructive? And can it be overcome before one walked away for good?





We absolutely loved this story from beginning to end and everything in between.I am so glad that the author decided to do a next generation series as we hated leaving the characters of the Wounded Souls behind as they are all embedded in our heart and we miss them so much.


One thing that comes to mind is that Gabe is his fathers son in all the ways that count.We loved Gabriel and that he wanted to follow in his fathers footsteps but, one thing is for sure is that his father is a bit of a legend and he is determined to create his own with shear hard work and fierce determination.

I love how close the Wounded Soul kids are with one another and how they love their families so deeply it makes you heart sing  and even though  now the  founding members children of that charter are sitting at the table now the presence of Booth,Deck,Mannix,Steel and Creed is still very much alive.

We love to that we got to see a glimpse of all our favorite characters and to see that those amazing men are still so much in love with their women decades gone by.We miss the Flock ! Lol

Leave it to Gabriel to fall for a women who comes with a whole lot of complications but, one thing was sure was that from one chance meeting with Devon he new from the onset that he had met his one and only. I loved the nickname that he gave Devon as it was just perfect for her and we loved hearing it come off those sexy lips of his.

Gabe was one of those characters that you fell instantly in love with and for us it was just that way.I loved everything about that man from his duty and honor but, was his big old heart that made us fall and fall hard for him.

Devon was one of those characters that your heart went out to time and time again as she experienced  so much pain and suffering for someone so young and even though she has been trying to deal with her past and feelings she is still struggling but, once meeting Gabe for the first time in a really long time she feels protected and loved and no longer lonely.

We loved Devon' s and Gabe's story as it was heartfelt and emotional and messy and they had some really great chemistry but, also a love that would stand the test of time.

" We are loving the fact that we are falling as fast and as hard in love with the offspring of the Wounded Souls as we did with the fathers....."

"We loved this fierce and protective man to the point he melted our heart !"

5 amazing stars from us






 


I love the idea of being in love. Since my early teens when I first discovered Silhouette Desire novels my life has been all about reading. I would find myself re-writing scenes if I wasn't happy with them and hiding them under my bed. That led me to writing love stories of my own. They all ended up under the bed and are still there, and there they will stay. I don't do angst, in fact it drives me crazy. 

I am a mum of three beautiful girls, Australian, and have what most say is a weird sense of humor.
I spend my free time doing movie, Sons of Anarchy, and Friends marathons. And reading.
I love Pina Colada's and getting caught in the rain..... there's that weird humor.
