WOW! Holy Hotness! Have you seen this King Cobra cover? So, I've been holding out to read Jayne Rylon. I'm totally slapping myself in the head over it. I heard about her Powertools books five books into the series. Does this happen to you? When you know the stories will be good but you'll need to block off time to read 5-15+ books to get up to speed? So you push that to the bottom of the TBR because, who has the time!? I'm very guilty of this, there are loads of books I've never started (even bought!) because I didn't think I'd have time to get through all the backlist. So when I saw on Jayne's newsfeed about her NEW Hot Rods series **DING DING** perfect time to read some Jayne!Didn't hurt it's about REAL men who happen to be gearheads, because this is storyline I can instantly relate to. Throw in some Latin flair -Florida-Cuban in this case- I'm sold. You know I have weakness for Spanish in the bedroom!I believe this series is slight spin-off to her Powertools series, as the characters from one series to another are cousins. This didn't bother me, and I didn't feel at all lost or missing important back stories. Because these books chronologically take place after the Powertools stories there maybe some mild spoilers, but for me it didn't detract from either, and I still look forward to reading her Powertools, maybe more so now that see how damn steamy they must be!.The stars of our story are Eli and Alanso. Friends since they were kids, now co-workers at Eli's family garage/auto body business the men are struggling with both a friends-to-lovers challenge and questioning their sexuality. Eli is the type to look at the situation from all sides weighing the pros and cons, and Alanso is just sick of waiting. Getting these two to their HFN moment was rich with emotion and HOT sex.... (like super naughty and full of all the details!!)Let me just say Jayne can melt the words off your ereader they're so hot. *whew* I love her writing and I will certainly be reading every book she puts out in this series. The heat level of this book is off the charts. The main story line for King Cobra is M/M, however we know this series as whole will have polyamory themes, and I want to make sure you're aware of that going in. I'm completely turned on by the series as a whole and was frustrated when I couldn't just go download and read Mustang Sally (next up)... see this is the FLIPSIDE to getting in on the first book, you have to WAIT for next one!! I'm such a reader paradox!Review copy provided for an honest review.
