Is there any solution or work around for this? Would love to keep buying Kindle books and reading them on my non-Kindle device.
The easiest way is to buy an old Kindle and register that with Amazon and then download and transfer via USB. I use a Kindle Keyboard to do just that and there are tons of them on eBay. You will have to put the Kindle's SN in the appropriate Calibre plugin for it to work, but the whole thing is an easy process.
