Gabriel Merrick plays with fire. Literally. Sometimes he can even control it. And sometimes he can't. Gabriel has always had his brothers to rely on, especially his twin, Nick. But when an arsonist starts wreaking havoc on their town, all the signs point to Gabriel. Only he's not doing it. And no one seems to believe him. Except a shy sophomore named Layne, a brainiac who dresses in turtlenecks and jeans and keeps him totally off balance. Layne understands family problems, and she understands secrets. She has a few of her own. Gabriel can't let her guess about his brothers, about his abilities, about the danger that's right at his heels. But there are some risks he can't help taking. The fuse is lit. . .Praise for Brigid Kemmerer and The Elemental Series "Five hot guys, one tough heroine, plenty of romance and non-stop action. . . Elemental is the new series to watch." --Inara Scott, author of The Marked "Overflowing with action, snappy dialog, and hot guys--The Elemental Series will take your breath away." --Kim Harrington, author of Clarity
This is arguably the best books of the series. And by which I mean that Secret is JUST AS GOOD and it's a constant battle between which I love more.
But seriously. Gabriel is one of my favorite characters of any book ever. And so is Layne. I have no problems with this book, I read it in one sitting, and I'm obsessing over it!
It's been a few years and it's one of the books that I constantly come back to. I just love the way she portrays someone who could be so unlikable as someone I would defend with my life. I love the way she weaves family dynamics in such a natural way. No one is all bad or all good, or gets even close to either side! Each character is just REAL.
Just read it! I don't even know how to accurately review it because I love it so much. I feel like all I can say is "Book is good. You should read book."
So just do it!
