Gabriel “Gabe North” Northman

I left the woman I thought was the love of my life behind for my career. I had every intention of going back for her only to return to see her with someone else, raising a family. I vowed I’d never let another person into my heart after that.

Not until I discovered part of that family, she had been raising was mine. Eighteen years later, a successful music career behind me, more music still ahead and I found out I had a son. Then I almost lost him, and the angel who swooped in to save the day made me rethink my vow never to let another person in again. Maybe finding my son had softened my heart. Maybe nearly losing him taught me life was short. Either way, I knew one thing. I was going to make my angel sing for only me.

Mel:

[*] Bitter.

[*] Divorced.

[*] Swore off men, because they all suck.

[*] Struck stupid by a celebrity who liked to flirt.

[*] Guarding my heart against the impending doom I can see coming

Some of that was a lie. I forgot to guard my heart. I never was very good at self-preservation.
