Cardeno C. has managed to put all the qualities of a full length novel: characters, storyline, betrayal, even murder, into a beautiful little package. Then Cardeno added a bow at the end just to make it extra special. All of Me is my first book by this author, but it will not be my last.

I really liked the leads, Abel and Kai, and while Kai's sister annoyed me at first, she had her heart in the right place. I'll also say that All of Me is kind of cheesy-sweet and you have to go in with a frame of mind wanting to see a couple who were obviously meant to be together find their way. It is paranormal in the sense that there are shifters in the book, but it is no great world-building paranormal read. It's not meant to be. It is what it is, a contemporary romance with two characters who are hurting with a fix in sight....This is a really nice and quick shifter read. Although there is a darker reason for the two lovers to have not made their bond occur earlier, the MC's are good together. ...if you are feeling like a romantic and sweet paranormal, with the sex all kinds of good too, then this is a nice little read.

Ahhhhh, bliss! This was the perfect story for my mood. I wanted something light with just a touch of angst, a lot of sweetness and on the shorter side. ...The characters are sad in the beginning, heart-breaking even, with Abel miserable and dwelling on the fact that he doesn't have his mate and never will. When you meet Kai, he's so broken that he can't even shift out of his wolf form. He heals quickly, though, once he's by Abel's side and flourishes into the alpha that he is supposed to be. ... I adored the characters, and while Kai's recovery may be a bit fast for some, I won't deny that I enjoyed his quick turnaround. I loved the concept of two alphas bonded together and before they're born too!

Beans: I really loved the premise of this story and it was beautifully written. Abel is a bit of an ass and Kai is so wounded it breaks your heart. I loved Kai's sister in this and I think Abel needed to grovel for years but Kai has such a forgiving heart and just wants his mate, his friend. ...Highly recommend!Nina: I enjoyed every minute of it. This is a story of both young love and love that endures for a lifetime....These men will steal your heart and have you begging for more. ...If for some reason you haven't already read this delightful little novella, you really must immediately purchase it and immerse yourself in all of the love, sweetness, passion, drama, and beauty that Cardeno C delivers to us once again.
