In many ways this book shows a development of an already great talent. This story is smooth, the writing is clear, concise and beautiful. The shifts between times and voices was flawless and creatively done. The plot pulled me in and carried me along on a journey of first loves, loss, second chances, forgiveness, personal growth and what it means to truly love someone and want to create a life with them. I loved everything about this book. There was not one false note. Charlie "Chase" is an absolute delight. ... He's a dancer and a bit of a dreamer who has had to make his own way in the world and even though Scott and Adan each took a turn at breaking his heart, they could never break him nor forget him. Scott is great. ...He is the perfect first love and I fell in love with him right along with Charlie. ... Adan was complicated. He was so damaged by his macho culture upbringing with a huge chip on his shoulder and a drive to succeed professionally that left little room for much else in his life. I loved how he was with his men. He saw and remembered everything about them, he understood them. He, of all of them, grew the most in this story. In the most delightful and beautiful ways. ...Honestly, I was a little nervous going into this triad story. But I trust Cardeno C to get me to a happy ending. I knew…

It's a well written and entertaining addition to the series that I enjoyed. The storyline is nicely plotted, the personalities are unique and well developed, the imagery is vivid and the flow smooth. I like Charlie. He's a sweet guy and doesn't make any apologies for who he is. Even when life hurts, he goes on - he deals with it - tries to be happy. ... His biggest hurt also gives him his greatest happiness, and the future he always wanted. It's a difficult moment in his life and oh, so realistic. The author handles it very well.... It's non-traditional but watching them work through their issues made me smile. But then I found myself smiling often during this entertaining love story. I couldn't help it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

... Partly that is because Charlie is a fabulous narrator. I just loved his dialog and his inner voice. ... He is confident and sharp witted and determined to be himself. ... Charlie is also the heart of the story, the person who ties the three men together, the one who is the nurturer and the caregiver and who is the rock that builds their family. ... I will be vague on the details here to avoid spoiling some significant events, but I will just say the three men reunite and there is an opportunity for them to all three be together. Again, the author really shows us how far these three men have come over the years (it has been about 20 since the start of the book). ..The three men are fabulous together and all make a perfect family... So I totally adored this story and it is my favorite for sure by this author. I loved the slow sweetness to the story. It is actually fairly light on the sex, at least by this author's standards, but at the same time, the passion and intensity between these men when they are together is amazing. Just the smallest scenes are so heated and meaningful. They are so sexy and romantic and loving that I just adored them. I loved Charlie's humor and narration, loved the way the story builds one relationship at a time until ultimately it all comes together. I just adored the whole thing. Exceptionally well…

I just have to say…wonderful. Sweet and very heartwarming...As per usual…CC’s hot and sexy times are in fact…Hot & Sexy.
