One important thing to know about me is that I am obsessed with Kol Anderson and ALL of his work. He inspires me creatively every day. The man is (gorgeous) a genuine, a modern day genius. As genius as you get today. His stories rips my heart out through my throat every time, puts it back, slices my chest open and then dices my heart into a million pieces then sets fire to it and roasts marshmallows in its embers. And really, what more can you ask for from an author? He is my inspiration and my literary hero. I wish I could be coached or mentored by Kol. I would soak up everything he would teach me. Kol, if this reaches you, please know that you have a true fan for life, buddy. You're my hero and thank you for sharing your work.This book tore me into a million pieces. I have always been fascinated by the bonds of brothers, always. It is a beautiful bond at times. I so enjoyed how Kol made me work for the ending. He didn't just start the story promisingly, only to have the two MCs declare undying love at the end after a hot consummation. Instead he put a bit of reality in there, and my heart broke for the masculine yet boyish Hunter with that ending...I enjoy Kol's narrative voice. I don't know how to sum it up, because words ain't good enough. I can't explain it. It just paints such powerful imagery and draws out emotions in you. He paints a powerful picture (I'm still haunted by Carter Bennett in Prisoner, Sir.) He is a dialogue god, using it to reveal character, drive story and set mood.I have been left to imagine the follow up of Soulmate for myself just so that I can sleep at night, as I'm not sure if Mr. Anderson will be producing its follow up any time soon (sadness) and I can't leave it like that. I had to have Hunter's reunion with Kayden (Not that I ever expect any of Mr. Anderson's stories to leave you with a straightforward HEA. Your brilliance is quite evident, Sir.)I can only thank the author for sharing his beautiful and honest work.And to Kol Anderson I say, I love you. Now please dance with me in the rain for thirty minutes.
