The sex was pretty hot! And I loved the dirty talk!!
From hookup to commitment, what started out as two men, attracted to each other on a very casual level, slowly became much more. ...I really enjoyed the family element here – the emotion and the evolution of Jason and Abe together, as well as that with the kids, and even Angela as a unit. Their interactions and love for one another... created much-needed emotional connection and depth for me. Jason's struggles and regrets as a workaholic father felt real and sad, but simultaneously set Jason and Abe on that more permanent path. And sweet Abe, he's just that character that you can't help but love, for his personality, commitment and for what he wants out of life and love.... a feel good story of two opposites creating something beautiful together. Well done.
I actually really liked the twist in how the story is told, it worked well for me. The first half is from Charlie's POV and then we switch between the three in alternating chapters.... Despite there being some serious issues and difficulties, this is a happy story, a sweet story, unabashedly so, and it's a sexy story with a dash of Cinderfella. It's not complicated, it's not full of drama, I want to be happy when I finish a book, I want to be entertained and smile and sigh when I read. And this book gave me all that and more. It is a great addition not only to my "m/m/m" shelf but also my "favorites" shelf. I want to just bask in the sexy sweetness that is Charlie and his harem of two.
I love Cardeno C's stories. They are a great mixture of sweet and sexy, and Blue Mountain definitely fits into that category. ...Blue Mountain definitely has a slow burn feeling to it, which makes Mitch and Simon's mating that much sweeter. ... Character driven stories with lessons about intolerance are key characteristics of Cardeno C's writing, and those can also be found in Mitch and Simon's story.
It is really a nice slow build for their relationship. I liked the pacing of the story. The slow burn and desire that becomes all-consuming and almost debilitating as the years pass. It makes the union that much sweeter when it finally happens. Cardeno C just has a way of weaving a story that pulls the reader in and washes them in love and warmth. Zev and Jonah are hot as hell between the sheets and sweet as honey out of them.
