I popped my m/m romance book cherry by reading Double Full by Kindle Alexander…and it was real effing good. If this second chance love story doesn’t pull on your heart strings…then I don’t know if you have a heart beating in your chest. I wanted to grab my pom poms and cheer for these two.  Check out my review and interesting author giveaway.  


My Review of Double Full
Double Full by Kindle Alexander
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
ARC kindly provided in exchange for an honest review.  No cliff hanger.  Stand alone - but room for another book. Spoiler-free review.

Double Full
The definition - The double full is a trampoline move that comprises a single (normally straight) back somersault with two full twists.

Ok…first off I have to say I popped my m/m romance book cherry by reading Double Full by Kindle Alexander…and it was real good.

I want to remain spoiler free…so here is my basic break down of Double Full. Cole is a hottie, “Mr. All American” football God living large on his Texas college campus.  He has a secret crush on Jace, an openly gay, beautiful male cheerleader at school. A smoking hot locker room encounter changes everything. Prior to the locker room tryst, Cole has been secretly obsessed with Jace.  Cole asks Jace to accompany him on a once in a life time trip.  While enjoying their cozy island paradise….they have crazy ass sex (literally) and promises of a serious relationship are made. The boys get back to Texas…and their secret is way out of the closet.  Reality hits home. If Cole wants to be considered as a serious NFL draft pick and keep Jace safe - then hard choices must be made. A world of hurt, lies, lust, sex and drugs become a reality.

If this second chance love story doesn’t pull on your heart strings…then I don’t know if you have a heart beating in your chest. I wanted to grab my pom poms and cheer for these two to make it work.  I have to say I am so conditioned to reading m/f smutastic encounters….so this was way different for me.  Different in a good way!   This book might not be for everyone since there are some super steamy m/m scenes.  If you can’t deal/read this…I totally get it… but you will be missing out on one hell of a great love story from Kindle Alexander. There is a book two planned and hope we get more Colt, Jace and…Mitch. 4.50 - 5.00 football sized stars.

Synopsis:
No names.

No faces.

No identities.

That’s the rules at Elite.

Just as nineteen-year-old Carly Hutchinson’s life falls on hard times, she’s offered a job at Elite, a secret organization that provides beautiful women to wealthy men with no strings attached. With an ill mother, and a special needs little sister to look after, she’ll do whatever it takes to keep them from losing their home and keep their heads above water, even if that means auctioning off her most prized commodity—her virginity.

Doctor Gabriel Jenson is a hungry medical school student ready to play ball in the big leagues. Power, money and success drive him to accomplish things that most men would never dare go after. When Gabriel receives an invitation to join the city’s most exclusive gentleman’s club, he can’t pass up the opportunity to prove he belongs.

When Gabriel wins Carly’s virginity as the highest bidder, he can’t help to be taken with the young woman and finds himself at a crossroads. Even though both of their identities remain hidden, he can’t close the deal and take his prize. He needs her to submit for more reasons than just money. Sex alone with this woman isn’t going to be enough and he’s willing to break all the rules to claim her.
