These characters have great chemistry together and their journey towards the HEA that you can always count on Cardeno C to provide was believable, sweet and full of emotion. I even loved the secondary characters and that was a surprise. I hadn’t expected to feel any connection to them, yet they just wove themselves right into my heart along with the MC’s. When I was learning the Pot of Gold ratings, I was told that a 10 out of 10 Pots of Gold meant it was the best book ever. This book, for me, is definitely that.

Overall, a sweet read with some sexy points.

Blue Mountain is a love story, hands down. ... the story is so very well written, with pathos and intimacy, that even the most hard hearted of us will no doubt sigh with satisfaction at seeing these two men fall in love. If you are looking for a sweet tale of romance and healing, Blue Mountain by Cardeno C. is the novel for you.

Mary Calmes and Cardeno C. are definitely both wonderful authors individually. I didn't know what would happen when they teamed up because they do have very different writing styles. In my opinion, they did a wonderful job of getting the story across and making me love the MCs and the supporting characters, as usual…. This definitely isn't a Mary Calmes book or a Cardeno C. book, but a good collaboration that had me turning the page as fast as I could.

I loved this book! ... The characters are adorable and sexy, sweet and passionate, and did I mention sexy? Right. Emilio is just one of those characters I couldn't help but love. He is tall, dark and handsome. Sexy and confident, without being arrogant. ... Spencer is a sweet, shy, intelligent college math professor and very innocent in some ways even though he is thirty-eight years old and has been in relationships before. ... I loved how Emilio tuned into Spencer's discomfort and talks about the repairs and renovations that Spencer wants to do to his home, to help him relax. ... I loved Emilio's family, his brothers are a hoot and I enjoyed the dynamics between them. ... While reading this book, I laughed, had teary moments, felt angry (Peter) but over all it made me very happy. It is a lovely, sweet, feel good romance that touched my heart with characters I thoroughly enjoyed.
