Gabriel's Light (Doms of Chicago Book 7)
Gabriel Poulanos is only half the man he was since his beloved sub, Sara, died in a senseless mugging. Now he goes through life in a daze which worries not only his closest friends at Olivia€s but also its newest member, Zhenya. He resists every matchmaking attempt and schemes his friends come up with, until the early spring day when a surprise visit by a group of submissives leads to dragging him kicking and screaming out of his self-imposed exile.
Pregnant with her dead husband€s baby, Zhenya has experienced loss and it hurts her to see a man as vibrant as Gabriel wasting away. Then her new friends offer to throw her a baby shower, she agrees, but only if it is at Poulanos, Gabriel€s family restaurant. She never expects for her water to break nor the bad weather which keeps her confined, with not only a fainting submissive, but two over-bearing Doms and the grumpy restaurant owner. But that€s the least of her problems. Because once she gives birth to her daughter, her dead husband€s family demands she relinquish her.
At least until Gabriel finds out. If there€s one thing that this grieving Dom understands is a submissive€s right to choose her own path.
