When I read To Touch You, I didn’t realise it was part of an established series, so I can honestly say that it can be read as a stand-alone novel despite being the fourth book in the Mates Collection.

On this whole this is a good story because Brent was the hero and he carried the story for me. I loved him, his compassion and his determination to break down Kyle's walls. I was sighing happily in the end because he was happy at last after two years of waiting patiently.

Strong Enough held the meaning of life~ who one falls in love with can’t always be helped, a family should always be on your side, and but if there is strength of will and character, love will be found. Cardeno C. wrote strength in Emilio and Spencer and happiness prevailed.

It has steamy smexy scenes and some much needed fluffy goodness. it totally made me smile and it'll make you smile as well so give it a try.

What I loved about the dynamic of Jeremy and Reg's relationship was how ‘take charge' Reg became. Jeremy was the star but he liked Reg in control of things so he could focus on performing...Reg was the one person that seemed to care about Jeremy because he truly liked him and not because he could gain anything from knowing him. I think that was what Jeremy loved the most about Reg at first as well. That ‘like' soon started to reshape into something more. ...Since Jeremy never had a real relationship with anyone, it took him awhile to discover what he truly had with Reg. The slow burn was very sweet and romantic and so Cardeno C! Read this book for the nice permanent smile that will be on your face the whole time you read it. Also, because sometimes no angst is the very best thing in the world!!
