It's funny I remember reading Bianca's Plan and thinking how much I'd love to read Gabe's story. It didn't dawn on me until part way through this read that this was about him and that I was finally getting my wish.

Todd left his small town to find his dream job in Kansas City. He wants to apprentice under a chef he wildly admires but she's not interesting in teaching him. That starts a chain reaction of bad luck that culminates in Todd without either a job or a place to live with a blizzard on the way.

He meets Gabe, who takes him in to his home in a pay it forward scenario that was sweetly Cinderfella-esque. Todd's struggling to come to terms with his sexuality and Gabe is struggling to resist the attraction he feels for the younger man. This was a romantic little story with a lot of call backs to Thomas' previous characters which was a lot of fun, I really enjoy the world he's built here.
