AUTHOR BIO

Amazon international number one bestselling and award-winning author Kindle Alexander is an innovative writer who pens contemporary gay romance. Happily married, with too many children and dogs, and living in the suburbs of Dallas.

Usually, I aim to be funny. Humor is an important 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 can be a tricky deal. I don’t want to offend anyone, and humor can 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 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 imagine 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 her 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 announced their brand-new e-reader. She had no idea the Kindle was coming, and she would have finally gotten her name on something! Try finding a ruler with the name Kindle on it… Never happened.

Through the course of that crippling event, I was lucky enough to know my writing partner. I would have never gotten through those dark days without her unwavering support and guidance. There wasn’t a time she wasn’t there for me. For the first time in my life, I used the hand offered. I know, without question, I wouldn’t be here today without her. It takes a special person to stand beside someone at a time like that. I will love her forever. I could go on and on about the both of them, but I won’t and now you know a little more about us.

Review - Full Domain by Kindle Alexander

Title: Full Domain

Series: Nice Guys #3

Author: Kindle Alexander

Release Date: January 12, 2016

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?

Nice guys don’t finish last…

This is the official last book in the series and I couldn’t wait to get started!

Kreed Sinacola is a Deputy US Marshal. He is dedicated to his job, extremely good at what he does and always willing to go the extra mile each and every time. Sounds a bit staid? Maybe a bit boring? Well, nothing could be further from the truth. Kreed is sizzling sex on a stick. Oh yes, gorgeous doesn’t begin to cover it. 

He is evenly matched with Aaron Stuart, slightly younger but equally handsome and appealing. Aaron is a hacker turned legit as he now works for the NSA. When these two start working on a joint case, it is instant de-attraction on both sides. And by that I mean they both feel the sexual chemistry and attraction between them right away but each have their own reasons for keeping each other at arm’s lengths…

“I don’t get my honey where I get my money. And that’s too bad ‘cause you’re f***ing adorable.”

It is a long book, almost double the normal length of a standard story, and I admit it was a bit of a slow start for me. I’m not sure why as Kreed and Aaron were deliciously intriguing from the start. The case they were on certainly provided enough drama, while the mystery surrounding Aaron and his extra-curricular activities added even more to the mix. Their forced togetherness meant they had to deal with each other in close quarters and tense situations so they would either ‘make it or break it’… together. The sexual tension between the two had to explode sometime, and when it did, well, hold onto the headboard, folks, as it was all you could hope for! This author knows how to turn up the heat and keep it there!

An added bonus, of course, is the other series’ characters being front and center here as well. The humor and genuine love and caring between them all just pulled me into their communal hug. A completely satisfying ending brought this series to a bittersweet close. I hope we see more of all these characters!

“Bacon condoms?” … “Make your meat look like meat.” 

~ Review by Diane

If there's one thing I can count on, it's getting a dirty, sexy and suspenseful read from Kindle Alexander’s Nice Guys. A read like Full Domain, the third and final book in the series… 

After waiting for what seemed like FOREVER to get my hands on Kreed and Aaron’s story, I dived in with high expectations and a whole lot of excitement. What I didn't factor in was that I'd forgotten part of what led the Nice Guys to this point… *Sigh* Damn my memory! So, I backed off and had a blast refreshing my memory by scanning through Double Full and Full Disclosure. Side note: I still love Mitch Knox. Maybe even more after my refresher. 

Now, once I was back up-to-date and armed with the knowledge I needed, I fell into this story—and right into love with Kreed Sinacola. What a guy! I loved everything about him, this intuitive, hot, funny and smart Deputy US Marshall who couldn't stop thinking about his “smart boy.” It was fun to watch him try to avoid, justify and rationalize his attraction to the kid, Aaron Stuart. It was even MORE fun to watch him succumb to it. Whew, any one else feel that temperature rise? 

Aaron and Kreed were the absolute stars of this book. As much as I enjoyed aspects of this mystery—and definitely felt the suspense at times—I was a little distracted by their chemistry. And a little surprised at the way the overall arc of this series played out. I might have expected something different, and what I got felt like two different (still very good) books. Part one, which was a bit of a slow start for me, followed by an excellent part two—it took a turn about 70-ish% of the way through and the focus changed. Which, don't get me wrong, was great. More than great—I actually loved the change of dynamic and relationship between Aaron and Kreed, and the reveal of Aaron’s secrets, more than the early parts of this book. But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't expecting something else to happen—a change, another reveal, a twist. 

Having said that, there were just so many moments in Full Domain that reminded me why I will always pick up a Kindle Alexander book with a good deal of anticipation and excitement. The sprinkling of character cameos—more than cameos, in some cases—from their previous books, for example. There was plenty of my beloved Mitch here, along with his Cody, and the still bloody funny Colt and Jace. Plus, the incredibly hot, eyebrow raising sex… And, of course, the playful banter that leaves you with a big ol’ smile on your face. 

Full Domain might be the last book in this series, but it's most definitely not the last time I get my hands on a book by this author. Next time I'm looking for fun, sexy and suspenseful, I'm looking for Kindle Alexander.

Review - Closet Confession by Kindle Alexander

Title: Closet Confession

Author: Kindle Alexander

Release Date: September 8, 2015

This standalone version includes Bonus Scenes adding an additional ten thousand words to this novella. Closet Confession was previously released in the Night Shift Anthology. 

Dr. Derek Babineaux is intelligent, dedicated, and one of the best ER physicians in the fast-paced world of critical care at Tulane Medical in New Orleans. Always on top of his game, he's thrown off balance when the newest medical staff member finally unleashes his hidden desires.

Justin Delacroix's job at the inner city's busiest hospital might be just what he needs to ease back into civilian life after a long stint in the military. High-performing shifts make working as a trauma nurse at TMC the perfect way to utilize his skills and quick reaction times. There's only one problem, his attraction for one sexy ER doctor is off the charts, but he has his reasons for not returning Dr. Baby's night shift advances. Or maybe he doesn't.

ADD TO GOODREADS

AMAZON US / AMAZON UK

Oh HELLS yes! I've yet to read a Kindle Alexander book I haven't loved, and despite the faster pace set by the lower word count, Closet Confession is no exception. Hot and sweet, a little twisty and a lot of awesome. 

Life in the ER is fast-paced and that's how Dr. Derek Babineaux likes it. He also likes the newest member of staff at Tulane Medical Centre...sexy nurse, Justin Delacroix. Dr. Baby wants to act on his desire for the former military man, but there's something holding Justin back. It's not that Justin doesn't return the attraction, but that he doesn't mix business with pleasure...does he? 

I was lucky enough to originally read this one as part of the Night Shift anthology and here's what I said then (NB: a shortened version appeared in the Give Me Books review of said anthology):

I loved this hot little read! Justin and Derek (Dr. Baby, BTW, is an awesome nickname) were SCORCHING hot together. I loved their flirty moments, I loved the intrigue; I loved this story. It didn't go the way I originally envisioned, and I am glad of it. There were fun, surprising moments in Closet Confession and it felt like a complete, well-rounded story, despite the length. Their brief-but-OMG-I-need-a-cold-shower coupling was spot-on; I wouldn't change a thing about it but I also wouldn't say no to MORE from this sexy couple. I wonder...could we make that happen, Kindle?

And now, Closet Confession HAS given me extra from Justin and Derek—and I LOVED IT EVEN MORE. So, thank you, Kindle Alexander! 

The story was still just as fun and flirty and sizzling, and I was still just as entranced by the way these authors worked their story in a way that made it surprising even on a second read. The additional scenes simply gave added depth to a couple that I already had a thing for. #Winning, to throwback a few years and steal Charlie Sheen's word. Yup, this one is most definitely worth a read...or two. 

~ Review by Beth

My usual complaint when it comes to short stories and novellas is that they don't give me enough depth to get invested. Or JUST when I'm getting invested, the story ends abruptly. That is not the case with this here. I LOVED Justin and Derek! 

Their stories were little gifts that kept me glued to my kindle. First, we're given an artfully crafted, sinfully sexy story with a small but satisfying twist—and it wraps up beautifully. However, luckily for us, in this version, the story doesn't end there. We're also given snapshots into other stages in the story of Justin and Derek, and while the book can still easily be read in one sitting, I felt like I walked away invested, after a full and satisfying love story.

These two are completely combustible together, steamy, dirty, and hot. They are also incredibly sweet, tender, and madly in love. These stories have a little bit of everything, some tenderness, some angst, some humor, some panty-soaking sexiness, and two strong, smart, sexy men. Does it get any better than that? 

~ Review by Shelly

Stop. Go read it. NOW! It's short, and quick, and completely wonderful in every way. Derek, or "Dr. Baby" was such a sexy hunk of a man. The way his admiration of Justin begins leaves you with so many questions, but it's so HOT you don't even care about the answers. 

What a combustible couple! Their chemistry is absolutely off the charts, and the fireworks between them will melt your panties right off and leave you weak kneed and wanting more. Don't worry, there's more! The romance was there too, and I melted at the good Dr's old-fashioned commitment desires and romantic nature. The bonus chapters answered all the important questions, along with giving even more of that steamy couple that you crave. 

A perfect one sitting read, which is both good and bad. Good, because you won't be able to put it down. Bad, because you'll be so disappointed when it ends. Just don't let the length fool you, this book packs a powerful punch!

Review - Secret by Kindle Alexander

Title: Secret

Author: Kindle Alexander

Release Date: June 9, 2015

Tristan Wilder, self-made millionaire and devastatingly handsome CEO of Wilder-Nation is on the verge of a very lucrative buyout. With tough negotiations ahead, he's armed with his acquisition pitch, ready to launch the deal of a lifetime. There’s just one glitch. The last thing he expects is to fall for the hot business owner he's trying to sway. 

Dylan Reeves, computer science engineer and founder of the very successful social media site, Secret, is faced with a life-altering decision. A devoted family man with three kids and a wife, Dylan has been living a secret for years. Fiercely loyal to his convictions, his boundaries blur after meeting the striking owner of the corporation interested in acquiring his company. For the first time in his life, reckless desire consumes him when the gorgeous computer mogul makes an offer he can't refuse.

ADD TO GOODREADS

AMAZON US / UK

It's not often that I find myself simultaneously speechless and not wanting to shut up about a book. I am right now, however. Having just finish Secret, I'm torn between wanting to tell everyone to get their hands on a copy ASAP, and wanting to sit and reflect on what I just read. 

Tristan Wilder and Dylan Reeves aren't expecting a fierce, undeniable attraction when they meet to discuss the merger of their respective businesses. With Dylan a married father of three, responsibility always takes precedence over desire...until Tristan. 

I know the blurb will raise a lot of questions about the content of Secret. After all, the implication is there about what some consider a hard limit. About what I consider a hard limit. All I can really say is set aside your concerns and read this book. See how Kindle Alexander has formed a beautiful, moving story about a man hidden, about a man keeping a secret, about a man surrounded and yet somehow, alone. 

I felt all the feels reading this book. I was surprised, I was elated. My heart broke and healed. I was on the edge of my seat, frantically messaging a friend who had finished before me, spouting theories, lamenting over what I thought might happen. And all while drooling over the absolute hotness of these characters and trying to keep myself (and my Kindle) from overheating. 

By book's end, I was completely in love. There was so much to fall for in this story. Ms. Alexander took my hard limit and twisted it on its head as she made this story not about a man married, but a man falling in love. A man discovering himself and reconciling that with who he has always shown to the world. To his family. To himself. 

It was hard not to root for these characters. To wish and hope frantically for a happily ever after for all that deserved it. To cross my fingers and toes that there would be no more hurt for them. 

It all boils down to this: one-click this one and read it without prejudice. While you're doing that, I'm just going to think about it a little more, okay?

~ Review by Beth

Secret by Kindle Alexander is the story of Dylan Reeves a husband, father and business owner who has some very big secrets. What if your secrets have the power to change your whole life? 

Let me say, I love Dylan. He's hot, sexy, a Texan and dedicated to what he feels is right. He makes sacrifices every day for his family... I love how Kindle Alexander explores the emotion of love and allowing yourself to feel love in such an amazing way. 

For years, Dylan has done what was best for his family and sacrifices the love that every person craves. He gives it to his children but yet he doesn't really have it for himself. This is the story about how he finds it. I love the flaws of the characters, the strengths, weaknesses and openness that they share. I truly hope to see more of them down the road.

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.
