I am NEVER disappointed reading a Cardeno C. novel and Not a Game hit the romance spot....Cardeno C.’s characters are down to earth and people we’d meet on the streets, and want to get to know. 

Every time I read a Cardeno C. book, I am left teary-eyed, smiling and utterly fulfilled. 

Loving how CC can take two slightly damaged men and bring them together allowing us readers the chance to watch them fall in love and heal each other ~ She does it every time!

It's not very often I give a novella 5 stars. There has to be a lot right with it, they need to blow me out of the water, I have to fall in love with the MCs, believe the story is just a tiny, and I mean tiny, bit plausible, there has to be a beginning, a middle and as much of a satisfying feeling at the end as a novella can give. This story hits all those points and more. ... As much as I would have loved there to be more of Isaac and Rafi, its perfect just the way it is. I loved this story it's beautiful, romantic and such a feel good story I will be re-reading this one again.

God damn Cardeno C. when you decide to break the mold you do it in a unique and brilliant way. ... Asher and Daniel are a fantastic couple. Daniel changes Asher without even realizing it and Asher introduces Daniel to something he never knew he would like. There's a lot of give and take with both men finding what they really need, but neither man are actively trying. They just naturally provide what the other needs, and whoo the sex is explosive. It isn't all easy between them though, especially when Asher's past rears its ugly head because of his insecurities, a simple touch of jealousy and lack of communication. This is a story not to be missed if you love slight kink, a Dom who wakes up to his needs, a sweet man who likes a touch of dominance, a great story, brilliant characters and a very happy ending, I highly recommend this book to everyone.
