It was great how the author chose to write this story! It was both sad and thoughtful. To me age should not matter when it comes a relationship. What everyone else thinks doesn't matter. It's what the couple wants. ...Readers are in for a very Hot Romance and I loved it!

Cardeno C is an incredibly talented author who writes heart warming books that stay with you long after the last word has been read.

Within the first ten pages of this book, I was already chortling and I realized this was going to be a cracker of a book and that Eli and Seth were going to leave a lasting impression....I adored this story, watching as Eli grows into an incredible man who cultivates his friendships with care and holds on to what is most important to him by holding back on his feelings was incredible, Eli is an astonishing character who develops wonderfully throughout the book. Seth is a wonderful character who is sure of who he is... until he meets a grown Eli who makes him question everything he thought about himself, we watch as Eli admits truths to himself and explores what he has discovered about himself and we pause with breath held as he struggles with his choice to act on his feelings. Eli and Seth has an exceptional friendship that we have the pleasure of seeing evolve, and when it finally evolves into a relationship it takes our breath away....I recommend this story to those who love brilliant stories that have you smiling and grinning, that leave you aching for the young man who had to wait years to finally get his man, that draws you in as soul-searching is conducted and doubts are examined and a beautiful relationship is fulfilled.

I loved this book. It is classic Cardeno C and that is always a good thing. .... Ethan has a great voice. An addictive blend of humor, self deprecation, loyalty, honor and a way of expressing his emotions that's very real. He had me laughing out loud a few times, I loved his sarcastic wit and intelligence. ... Miguel is beautiful. ... I adore big strong men that everyone is afraid of, but who are big mushy sweethearts around their lover.
