Gage was the second oldest in a family of five boys that his parents had. His mother had always wanted one daughter but that was not to be the case. So when the chance to have Kate there in the family his mother jumped on it. The girl was receptive but also knew her place was not permanent in the house as well. When his mother got sick she was one of the first ones called and she came home uprooting her life and starting over in the place she never really wanted to be. When one of Gage's brother's girlfriends started a fight Gage could no longer sit back and watch the young girl he knew he had some feelings for.
She was not a young girl anymore but a beautiful woman. He was happy that he could change her life for the better.
