Reed Kensington,
self-made millionaire, ruthless attorney, and handsome playboy has the
perfect life…just ask him. Which is why he’s surprised when a chance
encounter at his baby brother’s wedding makes him cross-exam his plans
for his future.
Trevor West loves his friends and his life in the
military as a special ops team member. Though he longs to find a
special someone, he refuses to jeopardize his career on something as
elusive as love. Until he meets Reed, and the desires running through
him threaten his hard-fought self-control.
When a dangerous
mission blows their world apart, Reed doesn’t let anything stop him from
jumping in. But can he convince Trevor that they belong together…that
he deserves a chance at love?
Up In Arms is a heavily revised rerelease of the original story published in 2012.
Copy received from author for an honest review
I came later to the world of Kindle Alexander, so I never got to read Up In Arms when it was first released.
However I am so glad I got in early with the rerelease, as Reed and Trevor's story just swept me up and took me on the journey with them.
It is sweet, it is romantic, and whilst it made me laugh and smile, it hurt my heart and brought out the protective and "don't you mess with them" side in me.
So different, but so perfect for each other, you can't help but falling for them as they fall for each other. I loved that Reed goes for what he wants, and how he falls quickly and falls for life. I loved how he brought Trevor out of his shell, even though he had to prove himself to Trevor, who was so shy,
I did have my issues with one character, who was such an a-hole to Trevor, and I just wanted to slap him like Cher slaps Nicolas Cage and yell "Snap out of it!"
I really enjoyed going back to where the Kindle Alexander story started, and can't wait for more from them in the future
Best Selling Author Kindle Alexander is an innovative writer, and a genre-crosser who writes classic fantasy, romance, suspense, and erotica in both the male/male and male/female genres. It's always a surprise to see what's coming next!
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.
