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!

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. ~ Beth, 4 stars
