Duncan's Pride (2.5) (Across the Aisle Book 3) Kindle Edition by Xyla Turner


Book Synopsis:

"Duncan's Pride was written by USA Today Bestselling & Multi-Award Winning Author Xyla Turner

Portia:
I can handle it, I said.
Duncan can handle it, I said.
We can handle it, I said.
Shit, we can't handle it. We said...

Duncan:
Portia had this undeniable belief that the two of us having a child would be a good thing. She had no evidence to confirm these suspicions, but I had the first-hand experience. Therefore, I charted what having children would mean for my mental sanity. The percentage was low. It was especially low for my wife.
Also, I did not factor twins into the calculations."

--
Author's Note: This is a novella and readers should read Book 1, Trent and must read Book 2: Duncan as those characters are heavily intertwined into Duncan's Pride. Cameos by Mr. Vega and Faith, Trent and Bernie. Also, this book, specifically the Hero, is a bit different than a typical Xyla Turner book. It is IR, BWWM, and HEA, but Duncan is a different kind of perfect. I hope you give him another chance.

BONUS: Read the first two chapters of Zena Wynn's hot release, Played.

You can see more like this book with the following titles:
Trent | Duncan | Mr. Vega | Declan | Carter | Across the Tracks | Take A Knee | Always Right | Cole | 10-80: Line of Duty | 10-99: Line of Duty | Extraction | Power of the Pen | By Chance, No Choice | Undertones

Review:

"Duncan's Pride 2.5" by Xyla Turner

My Rationalization:  

I enjoyed this story of how Duncan adjusts to life with Portia as she is now pregnant and preparing for the twins.  We will see how there will be some meltdowns [break downs] dealing with Duncan's problems but it always seems like Portia and his best friend Trent will be on board to help him.  As one reads through this story we will be directed to the fact that one of the twins has autism-like their father.  How will this be dealt with?

It was great seeing other couples like Trent, Bernadette [Bernie], Mr. Vega, Faith and a few others from past stories in this good read.

To see how well this all comes out you will have to pick up this read "Duncan's Pride 2.5" to see how this will all come out for Duncan and Portia.  I would have liked an epilogue of the future years with his family.  Be ready for a well-written story that will take you through quite some heartfelt emotions.
