Soul Love

Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies
– Aristotle

Why was I so bothered by the boy in the deck chair? He was too cute for his own good. Probably treated girls like arm-candy, like Jackson did. And when there was any real trouble he’d walk away too…

Despite first impressions, Jenna soon learns that Gabriel isn’t like other boys, and she begins to think that being stuck at her aunt’s in the country all summer might not be such a bad thing. The more time Jenna spends with Gabriel, the more deeply in love she falls. Could he be her soul mate?

But Gabriel is difficult to read – sometimes they get along great, and other times he seems distant. It’s not long before Jenna discovers that Gabriel is living with a dark secret…

'An insightful book that touches the heart.'
Wendy Cooling

'This is a well-observed love story with likeable characters. Novels about living with HIV are few and far between, so this is an important book. It is suitable for younger teenagers, as even with such subject matter it is very readable and not written to be controversial.'
School Librarian
