Slick's review posted at Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews 
 I became a huge fan of the writing duo that is Kindle Alexander the minute I finished the first book I read by them and that continues with the re-released (but my first time reading) The Current Between Us. The thing I love about their work in the gay romance genre is that their heroes are from all walks of life, often in different stages of their lives, and while they have obstacles to overcome they usually handle them with good communication, there isn't a lot of angst in their books-- just a whole lot of sexy fun and love. Two men living very different lives, an instant connection, a bit of a cat and mouse chase, two precious and precocious children, two crazy photo obsessed friends, McDonalds dinners, black tie events, and some hot and intense sexy times made this one complex and completely entertaining love story. 
 Trent Cooper hopes that getting called in to do an emergency electrical job as a subcontractor for Layne Construction will get his foot in the door with the giant company and while he has no doubt his small company can handle the job despite it being more complicated than they originally expected, what he doesn't count on is his intense reaction to the gallery owner, the world renowned photojournalist Gage Synclair. 
 After propositioning his new electrical contractor and being turned down Gage Synclair isn't sure what to think of the man and he can't seem to stop watching him work and imagining all kinds of illicit things. He's pretty sure the man is interested even though he pretends otherwise. Finding out he has two young children throws him for a loop, but when the kids invite him for dinner at McDonalds, Gage sees it as an opening to get to know Trent better. 
 While these two men were clearly from different walks of life and in different stages of their lives, the attraction between them led them to take a chance on one another. The admiration they had for one another was evident with Trent being in awe of Gage's investigative reporting and photography for years and Gage being impressed with Trent's work ethic and honesty. The intensity of their attraction spilled over into the physical between them and holy smokes the sexiness factor is off the charts in this book. However, it is the time they spend with Trent's children, Hunter and Emalynn, that tugged on my heartstrings. 
 There was a bit of suspense in this book as Gage is working on the final investigative report of his career before retiring and moving on, and they do have a bit of a bump in the road when some information comes to light, but overall this story was low on drama and high on love. 
 Heartfelt, emotional, sexy The Current Between us is an exceptional gay romance and Kindle Alexander remains one of my favorite authors in this genre.
