4.5 - Dirty-Talking, Pierced, Alpha Male Stars...Mike Haddican has been in love with Kyra Brims for what feels like forever, she came to Aldean as a 9 year old foster child, and it was love at first sight. He waited until she was 16 to start dating her, and they moved in together when she turned 18. Mike was happy with his life in Aldean, he had his job, his family and his friends. But Kyra wanted more, as a professional dancer, the opportunities in Aldean were few, and her future was elsewhere….7 years later and Kyla has returned a broke, and broken, divorced single mother - with a falling down house and her daughter Sam being the only things to her name.What follows is the rebuilding of a shattered relationship, broken trust and fractured hearts. Kyra and Mike are both different people 7 years on and sometimes it is hard to let past hurts go. As they begin to reconnect, not everything about what happened before is as they originally thought. Mis-understandings, missed meetings and external interference played a BIG part in their pasts playing out as they did, and in opening up to each other and sharing their secrets (as well as having some of the dirtiest, well written and beautifully explicit sex), they gradually work towards building something stronger and more stable together.Kyra – “You’re holding me too close.”Mike – “I don’t think so. I’m holding you just right.”Elle Aycart writes some of the best alpha males I have ever had the fortune to come across (and whilst fantasizing about!). I love the Bowen brothers (and they pop up in Deep Down frequently), but Mike has to be her most demanding and dominant guy to date. He doesn’t ask he tells, and if he wants something, he takes it, no questions asked. You do not mess with what is his, and you certainly don’t touch his women… either of them.Mike – “A man takes care of his woman and his children, always. Provides for them. Goes to jail to protect them if need be.”You also have interspersed in this book the O.G’s or Original Grandmas as they are also known. Greta, Wilma and Rebecca are the funniest old timers I have ever had the pleasure of reading about, what with their antics with a Tazer, and not to forget their S.T.D…also known as Senior. Texting. Disorder!! The laughs are plentiful and just add something special to the story.I am hoping Rachel gets her story next, and crossing my fingers that she gets the guy I want to see more of from the band Amantis!ARC generously provided by Elle Acart, and it was my absolute pleasure to provide the above honest review in exchange to the above honest review.
