To get to “Love Me Tender”, they’ll have to shake things up.
Kevin Fraser has a good life—a good job, good friends and a nursing degree within his grasp. There’s not a lot of excitement to be found in Asheville, but so what? He doesn’t need excitement. Or love, for that matter. Until a big man with an Elvis fixation and the voice to match shows up in his ER and changes his point of view.
A diabetes diagnosis isn’t the end of the world, just one more problem Owen Hicks doesn’t need. It hasn’t been easy finding his place in the Cherokee tribe, his family and the world at large since he came out. On top of that, learning to manage the disease that killed his mother is a daunting challenge. He counts himself lucky that the nursing student he befriended in the hospital is willing and able to help.
As their fast friendship deepens into something both of them want—yet fear—pressures from without and within stretch their bond to the breaking point. The only way to find the strength to love each other is to find the courage to let go…and hope love is strong enough to bring them together again.
Warning This book contains medical drama, relationship drama, sex, silliness and a Cherokee Elvis. Sorry, no fried banana sandwiches. Thank ya very much.

The cover really didn't begin to tell the tale of what's inside... This is nothing like I expected from the cover, and everything and more that I expected from the blurb. This book is fantastic. Let me break down why I loved it:Owen, a burly Cherokee Elvis impersonator, steals every scene completely. He is an AMAZING character and a beautiful soul I wish I could count among my real life friends and definitely a "book friend" I want to visit again. He's complex in a way that I rarely see in fiction, and romance tends to be even more hesitant to deal with real world problems like racial tension, body image, and health concerns.
I was a little nervous Ally Blue might falter in her depictions of two very different men than are usually given a happily-ever-after in m/m romance, that it might grow patronizing or hit a sour note, but for me at least it was consistently a winner, solid, not triggering or "cheap." I didn't feel she exoticized the characters. They're both fully developed and richly unique individuals.
Now, for the romance... It's a slow burn. It's a really good, really intriguing dynamic between them as their very natures draw them together. They fulfill needs in one another. It's not the drag race to orgasm you find in some books but rather a push-and-pull that builds on itself until there's really no alternative but to fall into one another completely.
This one has stuck with me, and now, long after I first read it, I'm moved to write a review because it stayed in my mind.

Graceland edition by Ally Blue Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I would consider myself an Ally Blue fan. I usually enjoy her stories, but Graceland fell a little flat for me. I just couldn't get into these two characters. It seemed more nurse and patient than passion. Still love her tho and can't wait to read her next book.
Graceland
Student Nurse Kevin Fraser is enjoying a night out with friends when he hears this incredible voice singing on stage. Owen Hicks is the Cherokee version of Elvis, including the famous hip movements. Unfortunately, Owens's voice is almost permanently silenced by out of control diabetes.
Graceland is a realistic illustration of just how deadly diabetes can be if not taken seriously. Kevin is a compassionate man who works at the hospital to support his education cost. Owen is an average man with a minor self-esteem problem, in addition to a major sweet tooth. When Owen is brought in to the emergency room, it is Kevin who is able to calm Owen. What started out as a comfortable friendship slowly evolved into love. Along with dealing with the disease, there is a social status issue, as well as racial tensions, among members of both Owen and Kevin's family. The secondary characters add a touch of humor to the plot.
Ally Blue has created a remarkable health awareness saga that I enjoyable immensely.
