Review: INSPIRING, HONEST, BRAVE, RELEVANT--A MUST READ!!! - “Love’s hard to find, and when you do, you don’t throw it away.” Ever since I finished this book, I haven’t stopped smiling. Smiling because stories like these fill me with an indescribable sense of hope and positivity. Smiling because some stories are just so wonderful in every single way—inspiring, brave, honest, relevant—that they fill my heart to bursting. Smiling because some love stories touch us so deeply that we never want them to end. And this is a book I wanted to grow old reading. “…he was a gay man buried so deep in the closet he questioned if he would ever find his way out.” Dylan Reeves is a married man in his late thirties—a man married to the same wonderful woman for the past nineteen years, a father to three well-adjusted kids, a successful businessman on the verge of the greatest professional accomplishment of his career—and yet he has been living a lie all his life. Dylan’s marriage, as supportive and loving as it is, has been a sham from the start, an arrangement between two best friends who agreed on living separate lives while raising together the three people they love the most in the world. But while his wife has given herself permission to find true love outside their marriage, Dylan has denied himself the same, putting his children’s happiness before his own, and living by a strict moral code of always doing the right thing, at all costs. “…they didn’t ask to be born. It wasn’t their fault I didn’t have the balls to be me.” While on a weekend business trip, as part of his company’s merger negotiations with one of the most successful technology companies in the world, the last thing Dylan expects to find on the other side of the negotiating table is a man who suddenly makes him forget all he’s pretended to be for so long, awakening all his suppressed yearnings, and igniting the very sexual man he was born to be. “I’m in trouble…” “That you are. I think we both are.” Tristan Wilder is a man at the top of his professional game, a self-made computer mogul who has the world at his fingertips, but his success has also cost him his personal life, rarely finding the time to engage in anything more than commitment-free trysts with men who never ask more of him. Until a closeted man walks into his life, and ends up turning it upside down. Never one to have to pursue his conquests, Tristan finds himself in uncharted territory as he romances a man struggling to let his desires consume him. But the more time they spend in each other’s arms, exploring each other’s bodies and stealing each other’s hearts, the more it becomes apparent to them both that their weekend together would end up changing their lives forever. “There’s no way this will end well for me, but not taking the few moments you’re willing to give me seems like a far worse fate.” And this is all I will tell you about the storyline because even a peep about what comes next would deprive you of the very special way this story unfolds and eventually comes together, of the way these characters react in certain pivotal moments in the story, of the way their unique bonds are attested, because it is those unexpected actions and reactions that make this book so extraordinary in its approach. This is not a story that trivialises the vows of marriage, or validates infidelity—this is a truly inspiring story about living one’s truth, about the kind of selfless love and devotion that puts most of us to shame, about finding the courage to show’s one’s most vulnerable side to those we love the most. Love does not always mean an easy road ahead, but stories like these make us believe that there might be a happily-ever-after for us all. There is something truly uplifting about tales like these, tales that show us how life should be, the life we should all have the right to live, and I am always astonished by the sheer beauty of these authors’ stories, consistently inspiring but inexorably sexy. Whether a seasoned m/m reader or new to the genre, this story should be on top of your reading list. “I’ll wait for you, however long it takes. I don’t care. I’ll wait.”
Review: Wonderful Story with Hot Guys. - bookshelves: grabs-my-heart, fav-authors, m-m, made-me-smile, made-me-cry, mc-to-love, romance-contempory, steamy, want-more Read from June 16 to 17, 2015 Two good guys. A lucrative business deal. Instant attraction. Clear sailing to a HEA? No. Dylan has sacrificed his own personal needs for his children. He and his wife have lived together as best friends in order to provide a secure and loving environment for their children. There is no secrets between Dylan and his wife. They will wait until all the children are in college before starting to live their own individual lives. But fate is a bitch. Tristan does not do commitments except to his business. He wants to buy Dylan's business and integrate it into his own. When he meets the closeted Dylan, he is determined to break though Dylan's defenses. Surprise. It is Tristan's defenses that are overran. Can he wait for Dylan to decide it is time to live his own life? He'd not been this excited about a night in a long time, and it surprised him. Taking a closeted gay man's virginity had never been on his bucket list, but he also hadn't ever met anyone like Dylan Reeves. He was gorgeous, no question there, and from the brief grope he got, he knew the man was packing, but he also seemed like an honest-to-goodness good guy. Maybe even one of those salt-of-the-earth types, and he couldn't remember the last time he'd come across someone as intriguing. I was emotionally touched by this story. I liked the complex characters. The kids did not take over the story and acted in a realistic manner. The connection between the MCs was hot. I loved them. Kindle Alexander always creates a good read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review for Secret by Kindle Alexander
*by J***A on July 20, 2017*

This is my third read from Kindle Alexander and I've loved all three books so far. That means I am definitely going to have to go back and scoop up more of her books! lol! I already have 2 more waiting for me on my Kindle. She writes the best swoon-worthy mm romances with some great steamy scenes. I like her stories a lot because the steam doesn't completely overpower the plot. I would also like to state that while the synopsis DOES say he is married with kids, there is NO cheating. At all. Trust me! Dylan and his wife and best friend,Teri had all three of their children when they were very young. After Dylan quit drinking he confessed to Teri that he was gay, and they decided to stay together to raise their kids. They also decided that while they were going to continue being a team to raise their children together, they were obviously no longer going to be "physically together" and they could date outside of their fake relationship...but they have to keep everything a secret. They are planning on telling the kids when they are old enough to head off to college, and then they are going to "separate" to find their own happiness. Teri has been in a serious relationship with a man for a couple years but has kept it a secret, while Dylan has remained celibate since. Until he meets Tristan, of course. lol! I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by the low level of angst in this one. After reading the synopsis, I really expected this to be full of angst but it wasn't so much. Dylan struggles a bit with public displays of affection but after hiding for so long and being worried about being seen, it makes sense. I've seen a lot of reviews that say they feel as if Tristan was extremely pushy, and I didn't really feel that way. He let Dylan call the shots and let him know they didn't have to do anything he wasn't ready for. Dylan gave consent, he was just nervous. The steamy scenes between them were sizzling, but I didn't feel like they overwhelmed the story. Tristan isn't the type of man who has time for relationships or closeted men, but he finds himself instantly drawn to Dylan. He was so sweet with Dylan and really went out of his way to show him how much he cared. He quickly decides that he wants more than just the night with Dylan, but he feels as if he has to convince Dylan to start a relationship with him. Dylan's main concern is 100% his family and doesn't want to get involved in anything that could potentially hurt them. Tristan does everything he can to make Dylan comfortable and happy, even going as far to say that he would wait for him as long as he needs to. He also makes a genuine effort to be nice and get to know Dylan's family, and I thought that was super sweet. Dylan is so used to hiding everything about himself that he's closed off his emotions a lot. He is a hard man to read because he's built such a huge wall around himself. Tristan had trouble figuring out how he was really feeling about things. Dylan has his moments when he panics and acts kind of like a jerk and that made him a little hard to connect with at first, but his love for his family really won me over. I really loved that Teri was never portrayed as the evil wife/villain. She was one of Dylan's biggest supporters and wanted him to be happy. They truly were best friends and talked everything through. She let him know when she thought he was being stupid and even helped him see Tristan. There wasn't too much about this story that I didn't enjoy. I loved that we even got a sweet epilogue to see how everything worked out for everyone. It really helped cement their HEA for me.
