I thought I should share this review before I post my upcoming reviews for two other works by the authors. This is another backlogged review, one that I hadn’t posted here since I shared a mini-review on Goodreads back in January of last year.

To be fair and honest, I am a fan of the authors—yes, in case you’re still unaware—Kindle Alexander is a duo of lovely ladies who adore the LGBTQ+ community, just like myself, and they’re enriching our lives with their magnificent writing!

First, let’s talk about that cover. I mean, come on, it’s a work of art in itself. I want to print that cover and hang it on my wall.

Now, onto the not-so-easy part: copying and pasting my review from Goodreads. This is, admittedly, my least favorite from the duo, and I have to say, I loved all of their books prior to this one. Let’s start by reading the blurb:

Honor, integrity, and loyalty are how Deputy US Marshal Kreed Sinacola lives his life. A former SEAL now employed by the Special Operations Group of the US Marshal Service, Kreed spent most of his life working covert operations and avoiding relationships. Never one to mix business with pleasure, his boundaries blur and his convictions are put to the test when he finally comes face-to-face with the hot computer geek he’s been partnered with. Hell-bent on closing the ongoing case for his longtime friend, he pushes past his own limits and uncovers more than he expects. 

Aaron Stuart strives for one thing: justice. Young and full of idealism, his highly sought after computer skills land him a position with the National Security Agency. Aaron’s biggest hazard at his job is cramped fingers, but all that changes when he is drawn into the middle of a dangerous federal investigation. Aaron gets more than he bargained for when the FBI partners him with a handsome and tempting deputy US marshal. His attraction to the inked up, dark-haired man provides another kind of threat altogether. Aaron tries desperately to place a firewall around his heart and fight his developing feelings, knowing one misstep on his part could ultimately destroy him. 

The solution isn’t as easy as solving the case, which is treacherous enough as it is. But the growing sexual attraction between them threatens to derail more than just Kreed’s personal convictions as he quickly learns temptation and matters of the heart rarely fit easily into the rules he’s lived by. Will Kreed be able to convince Aaron to open his heart and face the fact that sometimes the answers aren’t always hidden in code?

While I usually can’t stop talking about books by Kindle Alexander, this latest installment of the series left me feeling a bit unsatisfied. Perhaps my expectations were too high, but I was hoping for something more innovative. It felt like a rehash of previous characters and plots, lacking the freshness I usually find in Alexander’s work.

Despite this, I must say that the book,as usual is well-written, even if it didn’t quite hit the mark for me. There were moments of repetition and an abundance of explicit scenes that made it a bit challenging to get through, and some character traits felt overplayed.

However, I don’t want to deter others from giving it a chance. It might just not have been my cup of tea, but I remain a fan of the author. After all, some of her other works are among my favorites in this genre, and I’m eager to see what she comes up with next.
