Controlled Asher didn't expect to fall for free-spirited Daniel, but they'll find what they desperately need in one another.
Police captain Asher Penaz’s staunch professionalism bleeds into his home life, down to his neatly pressed attire and spartan apartment. He enjoys being in charge and in control, so his sudden and powerful attraction to the lighthearted, free-spirited Daniel Tover throws him for a loop. In his entire life, Daniel has never gotten what he needs, so he moves to the next place, the next job, the next attempt to find something worth staying for, always landing at the top of his game, but never feeling like he belongs.
The chemistry between Asher and Daniel sizzles, but with all that fire comes the risk of getting burned. As both men struggle to learn themselves while getting to know each other, the lines of desire and control blur. If Daniel and Asher can walk through the flames together, they might find what they desperately need.

Excerpt
Full ExcerptChapter 1
“You better not call me an asshole or tell me I’m selfish or any other bullshit for the rest of our motherfuckin’ lives,” Asher Penaz growled at his friend.
Of course, it was entirely possible that Oliver couldn’t hear him or wasn’t listening. There was no way for Asher to know because there was a wall of nearly naked women between them. He pulled yet more money from his wallet, tucked it into the tiny string holding up the almost-too-small-to-bother bikini gyrating in front of his face, and thought about how he’d never once expected to find himself in this position.
It wasn’t that Asher was opposed to nudity—far from it. But the female form wasn’t what did it for him. Not that any of this mattered to Oliver, as evidenced by the fact that the man had dragged him to this place.

Reviews
Something in the Way He Needs is the first novel I have read by Cardeno C., and it certainly won't be my last. The character development is superb and the plot is unique and extremely well-executed. The sex scenes are exquisitely erotic, varied and plentiful. The conflict between Asher and Daniel is believable and I like really like how this part of the storyline contributed to the growth of Asher's character. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys contemporary male/male romances. I am eagerly awaiting the next installment of the Family series.
Asher is a Dom with a capital D. He demands that things be done his way and likes his regimented orderly life. ... Daniel has been searching all his life for that sense of family and belonging and he thinks he has found it in Asher. .. If you like your stories messy and your heroes flawed, then Something in the Way He Needs is a must!
I fell in LOVE with Ezekiel in the Half of Us which he narrated for Cardeno C earlier. He has such an easy voice to listen to and he does the humor and emotion and the smexy times so well!
I adored Daniel and loved seeing Asher's tender side with him. I liked the way we see each man slowly figure out what he wants out of life and a relationship, and then figure out how to build that together. They are super sexy together and I found much of the dominance and control aspects of their sex lives super hot. I think the author does a nice job of showing us why these two somewhat unconventional guys just totally work together, and how they just fit one another.
