Signal Boost by Alyssa Cole $2.99
Signal Boost (Off the Grid) - Alyssa Cole

When technology stopped working, the world as they knew it ended.

In a secluded cabin, John and his loved ones have survived. He should feel grateful. But his family is in his face 24/7, he has to watch his best friend, Arden, and brother, Gabriel, flaunt their love, and as a techie in a Luddite world he’s pretty much useless. The cabin is brimming with people, but he feels utterly alone.

 

Until he catches Mr. Tall, Blond and Gorgeous raiding their garden. Mykhail is an astrophysics student, he makes John’s gaydar ping like crazy and he thinks he knows what caused the devastation. He’s on a journey to his university to find answers, and John invites himself along. Partly to get out of the house, and partly because he can’t let Mykhail go without acting on the mutual attraction that’s so obvious even John’s mom is playing matchmaker.

 

The closer they get to campus, the more Mykhail lets down his walls. But with answers come secrets both devastating and deadly, and before they can save the world, they’ll have to save themselves.

John catches Mykhail in his family's garden. They take him in. After finding out he is going to a nearby University to seek his professor (who predicted this would happen). We find out what happened! In theory, this *could* happen real life. (Unlikely the whole world, which from what I understand, happened in this one).
The romance was sweet, Mykhail coming out (so to speak). I was heartbroken when reading what happened to Mykhail's grandma. I appreciated that the reader found out what happened and some resolution happened.
Looking for to Maggie's story. Hope it's not too angsty.

Signal Boost - Alyssa B. Cole

I have been sorely slacking at updating My Thoughts on the books I've read recently.  No good reason.  *LOL*

 

 

Anyway... Signal Boost.  This is the second of the Off The Grid trilogy and it stars the younger brother of the first book's hero.  He comes across another young man in the family garden who he's immediately attracted to and in a couple of days they're heading off to the university to offer their help to whoever, they assume, is doing something about the flare that knocked everything... well... off the grid.  *g*

 

So, this one is definitely more like a New Adult novel and as a result I was not as enamoured of it as I was hoping.  I have a very hard time relating to the characters, most of them, because they are young and, well, need a bit of a shake.  *LOL* 

 

While not my speed, I'm pretty sure that many will enjoy this book as much as if not more than the previous one.  :)

Signal Boost (Off the Grid) - Alyssa Cole

John and Mykhail meet under some rather confusing circumstances.  John catches Mykhail raiding their garden and insulting the family tomatoes.  In this post-apocalyptic world, there is no longer the use of electricity and every man for himself.

 

John and Mykhail have an obvious immediate attraction to one another.  John can barely breathe when they are in the same room.  He gets mixed messages from Mykhail in return.

 

Meanwhile, there are more surprises outside of their little farm.  John's family accepts him and that stuns Mykhail since he no longer has one.  He wants to go back out and locate a college professor of his who he believes can solve this energy crisis.  They embark on a journey alone together to the college to see the professor.

 

On the way to the college, John finds out that Mykhail has feelings for him too.  He has just never acted on them with anyone before and is uncertain.  John is still feeling out of sorts since he has a past with men who cannot be trusted.

 

So much going on and several surprises for the reader in this book!  It is entertaining and charming to read. This is book # 2 in the Off The Grid Series.  Cannot wait to see what is next!  I give this book a 4/5 Kitty's Paws UP!
