Book Review: Abel by Elizabeth Reyes

Get your ringside tickets to Abel, USA Today Best Selling Author, Elizabeth Reyes' fourth book in the 5th Street Series.  Reyes is by far one of the hottest new adult contemporary romance novelists right now.  She seriously is one of my top ten favorite authors.  Want to know what I think about, Abel?  In short...it's an absolute knockout!
Abel's Back Cover:  
Coming off the worst divorce in the history of marriages, Nellie Gamboa’s looking to let loose and make up for years of neglect. When months of building sexual tension between her and the young hot boxing stud, Abel Ayala, finally peak, she makes him an offer no man would refuse.

No promises. No demands. Just pure unrestrained passion.

Abel’s training for the biggest fight of his career. He has no time for a social life, much less a relationship. So this arrangement couldn't be more perfect. A beautiful woman asking him to help her alleviate her neglected desires—no strings attached. What more can he ask for?

As the lines between lust and something much deeper, begin to blur, Abel finds himself in an even bigger fight.


The fight to regain control of his now demanding heart.

My thoughts:  Abel Ayala is the rising boxing star, poised to take his heavyweight career to super stardom. All he needs to do is slake his lust for an older, sexy divorcee, Nellie Gamboa and bide his time before he can claim his heavyweight title. He's known as Aweless Ayala for his bold and unshakable demeanor and at this point, nothing will stop his rise to the top. Well a few things shake him, but nothing as much as the lovable Nellie.

If you know anything about the series, then you know by the time Abel and Nellie finally hooked up, it was like we all needed a cigarette. LOL! Interesting enough their "no-strings" relationship continues and goes from the intense hot affair to a budding relationship, broaching topics like trust, love, age and of course the relentless paparazzi. I've always been a fan of Reyes Moreno Brothers series. ALWAYS. So when she started the 5th Street Series, it wasn't a stretch for me to enjoy this series as well. But I have to be honest...Abel just might be my new favorite. It's that good.

Reyes opens a window into these character's lives that keeps you begging for more. If you like your new adult romance lit spiced with hot men, undying friendship, love and a whole lotta sexy, then bet all your money on Abel! Abel was a 5 for me.
