Well, well, well…… Gabriel Fuller

Not what I expected AT ALL. There are so SO many layers to the loud goofy kid who keeps all his friends spirits high. Under all of the laughs there is a really tough life that comes with sacrifices. For Gabe his one heart breaking sacrifice was Penelope Shade.

Penelope is a badass in her own right learning to be a little tougher. Pen has a beautifully amazing family and a big giant brain, she has her own traumas and learns to heal herself. Gabe discovers Pens big brain and uses it for his opening into a second chance!

I did love that even though they had each other they grew within themselves. The love they had for each other did heal them but not in the codependent way. They were always their own people while having a seriously strong connection.

This story also includes
Lots of teasing
Slightly possessive soccer star
Lots of skateboarding


Happy Reading!❤️
