Welcome to the Kindle Alexander blog tour! Today, we're celebrating the new book Double Full!!!
Have you see the cover!? It's enough to make you drool!
We have a special post planned for our followers today. Our M/M Book Loving Guru Rach has graciously agreed to be our guest blogger today.
Up and coming football hero, Colton Michaels, makes a
Hail Mary pass one night in the college locker room that results in the
hottest, sexiest five days of his young life. However, interference after the
play has him hiding his past and burying his future in the bottom of a bottle.
While Colt seems to have it all, looks can be deceiving, especially when you’re
trapped so far in a closet that you can’t see your way out. When ten years of
living his expected fast-lane lifestyle lands him engaged to his manipulative
Russian supermodel girlfriend, he decides it’s time to call a new play.
Jace Montgomery single-handily built the largest all-star cheerleading gym in the world, driven by a need to forget a life-altering encounter with a handsome quarterback a decade ago. His reputation as an excellent coach, hard-nosed business man, and savvy entrepreneur earned him respect in the sometimes catty world of competitive cheerleading. When Jace learns of his ex-lover’s plans to marry, his heart executes a barrel roll and his carefully-placed resolve tumbles down without a mat to absorb the shock. Can his island escape help him to finally let go of the past and move his life forward?

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
I was completely
hooked to the story right from the start. I will admit it is the first book
of Kindle Alexander’s books which I have read but it certainly will not be the last. I already plan on reading The
Current Between Us, which has come highly
recommended by some of my m/m booklover friends and I cannot wait.
As a lover of m/m books I do tend to jump up and down at the
prospect of reading more gay romance books. This one was definitely worth it as I found myself engaged and gripped fully by the story, characters and style of
writing. Being that fully engrossed in the lives of Colt and Jace enabled me as
a reader to feel the roller coaster of
emotions they must have felt going through the tests in their relationship
together. I found myself wincing and
screaming internally when things went bad and smiling and feeling giddy when things were going great.
Kindle Alexander has an easy and engaging writing style which I
enjoyed very much. I personally am not one for flowery lovey dovey language and
feel it is not necessary in order to be enticed into the characters world, which is shown perfectly in this book.
I will not lie to you, I LOVE a book which is steamy and sexy and Double Full hits you
within the first few pages with a hot
scene which had me hooked completely-
YES call me shallow I don’t care! You like what you like and I like sex
hahahahaha especially rough, wild and
amazingly delicious sex!
Prejudice
and an anti gay theme runs throughout the
storyline. At times it is hard to read
as you like to think (or I like to think) that this sort of deep routed hatred
doesn’t exist, yet sadly it does.
Kindle wrote the story in a way which spoke
to me of the prejudices I see even in my own family regarding sexual
orientation. Sadly my family would no doubt react the same way family members
reacted in this story if I was to speak up about being attracted to people of
the same sex. I think that is why this
story engaged me so personally, as everybody
has the right to equality and nobody has the right to prevent that or make
others feel inadequate as a result. Sorry I will get off my equalities
soap box now hahahahaha!
My
emotions towards Colt and Jace
COLT
There were times when I felt deep sympathy for Colt and then the
next minute I wanted to shake him hard
and tell him to open his eyes up and see how selfish he was being! Yet I could understand his reasons for doing what
he does and so in the end my sympathy outweighed the frustration I felt.
Colt has a power hungry father who puts his own dreams and aspirations above
Colt’s. He was certainly a character I instantly
disliked and my opinion never changed throughout the whole story.
JACE
I found Jace to be the one putting out all the time, in an
emotional way. Colt was very good at the outward gestures yet I personally didn’t think he showed it in a deeply
emotional way, compared to Jace. I know some people may disagree with me and
that’s fine as this is just my take on the situation as I read the story. Yet
again even with Jace I found myself
getting frustrated with his abundance of trust especially on one occasion
where I didn’t feel Colt deserved it! No spoilers from me, sorry!
SECONDARY
CHARACTERS
I loved
Dr Knox he was so supportive towards Colt and Jace
in their time of need. His son Mitch was
so AMAZINGLY HOTTTT! I loved him. I
just hope and pray he is the main character in the next book FULL DISCLOSURE ❤ ❤ which I will be dying to read when it is released
TO
CONCLUDE
I
highly recommend it to all m/m readers if you
have yet to read it. If you haven't yet
read it WHY NOT????? Go buy it ASAP!! I hope you love it as much as I did
and like I said earlier I have had other
stories of Kindle Alexander’s recommended very highly to me so they are
obviously as good as this one :)
