Born to a prestigious political family, Avery Adams plays as hard as he works. The gorgeous, charismatic attorney is used to getting what he wants, even the frequent one-night stands that earn him his well-deserved playboy reputation. When some of the most prominent men in politics suggest he run for senate, Avery decides the time has come to follow in his grandfather's footsteps. With a strategy in place and the campaign wheels rolling, Avery is ready to jump on the legislative fast track, full steam ahead. But no amount of planning prepares him for the handsome, uptight restaurateur who might derail his political future.
Easy isn't even in the top thousand words to describe Kane Dalton's life after his father, a devout southern Baptist minister, kicks him out of the family home for questioning his sexual orientation. Despite all the rotten tomatoes life throws his way, Kane makes something of himself. Between owning a thriving upscale Italian restaurant in the heart of downtown Minneapolis and managing his long-term boyfriend, his plate is full. He struggles to get past the teachings of his childhood to fully accept his sexuality and rid himself of the doubts brought on by his religious upbringing. The last thing he needs is the yummy, sophisticated, blond-haired distraction sitting at table thirty-four.

Jenn's Review
Excuse me a moment while I get my thoughts together.
What I really want to do is tell you ALL about this story. Loudly. I can’t do
that, for obvious reasons. But I can tell you that I think this is Kindle’s
best work EVER! I loved it from beginning to end. It was different than
anything that I’ve ever read and that made me love it all the more.
This story…I’m still trying to get my words together…and
I want to do it justice but, I don’t really think that I can. Kane and Avery’s
love is the kind people dream of and wish for. The story was full of ups and
downs and everything in between. From the moment they meet, I was hooked and
cheering them on. Their first encounter left Avery speechless and me, laughing.
It went so badly that Kane was afraid his restaurant was going to get a bad
review. Again, I’m grinning from ear to ear because we know what Avery is
thinking. I love having both POVs in a story together.
So, it comes as quite a shock to Kane when Avery
finally just lays it all out. But, Kane does things a little differently. And
even though his real family has nothing to do with him anymore, the principles he
grew up with, remain. Kane gained a new family and they love him
unconditionally. Paulie is one of my favorite characters in this book. They
have a father/son relationship and they are each better for it. You also see a
small part of Kane’s family in the story and they make me sick. Makes you glad
Kane was kicked out than to be subjected to that hatred. Although, I guess it
can’t be escaped from forever.
Without going into the plot and giving it all away,
I’ll say this and let you get busy reading this book. Kindle Alexander has
given us a love story that is never ending. Kane and Avery’s story alone takes
place over decades. We go through everything they go through. It was joyous, breathtaking,
heart breaking and then heart mending. Maybe not in that order but you get the
idea. I encourage you to go on this journey with Kane and Avery. It’s not
always pretty, what love story really is? Come back and let me know what you
think, once you finish.
Best Selling Author Kindle Alexander is an innovative writer, and a genre-crosser who writes classic fantasy, romance, suspense, and erotica in both the male/male and male/female genres. It's always a surprise to see what's coming next!
I live in the suburbs of Dallas where it's true, the only thing bigger than an over active imagination, may be women's hair!
Usually, I try for funny. Humor is a major part of my life - I love to laugh, and it seems to be the thing I do in most situations - regardless of the situation, but jokes are a tricky deal... I don't want to offend anyone and jokes tend to offend. So instead I'm going to tell you about Kindle.
I tragically lost my sixteen year old daughter to a drunk driver. She had just been at home, it was early in the night and I heard the accident happen. I'll never forget that moment. The sirens were immediate and something inside me just knew. I left my house, drove straight to the accident on nothing more than instinct. I got to be there when my little girl died - weirdly, I consider that a true gift from above. She didn't have to be alone.
That time in my life was terrible. It's everything you think it would be times about a billion. I love that kid. I loved being her mother and I loved watching her grow into this incredibly beautiful person, both inside and out. She was such a gift to me. To have it all ripped away so suddenly broke me.
Her name was Kindle. Honest to goodness - it was her name and she died a few weeks before Amazon released their brand new Kindle ereader. She had no idea it was coming out and she would have finally gotten her name on something! Try finding a ruler with the name Kindle on it.. It never happened.
Through the course of that crippling event I was lucky enough to begin to write with a dear friend in the fan fiction world of Facebook. She got me through those dark days with her unwavering support and friendship. There wasn't a time she wasn't there for me. Sometimes together and sometimes by myself, we built a world where Kindle lives and stands for peace, love and harmony. It's its own kind of support group. I know without question I wouldn't be here today without her.
