I like that Cardeno C. can think/write outside the box, and does it so well I can really believe the storyline. 

The way they came together was nice. The sex they had was hot. They were like night & day…The saying opposites attract… and I would say that totally applies to Jared and Lucas… It worked. They made a cute couple.

This is a seriously sweet and sexy read. Cardeno C. never fails to give us a feel good, heart-warming ride and I love that I can look forward to every book knowing that my heart will be happy and full! ... This book is completely stand-alone and definitely worth picking up. If you want a hot, sexy yet sweet and heart-warming read then this is for you!

"Every human being is made in the image of God and he makes no mistakes." LOVED Eli as soon as he showed up on the page. He made me laugh so hard I had tears in my eyes. And poor Seth had no idea how to handle it. Eli is young and brash and so eager to experience everything. His personality jumped off the pages and pulled you right in. Seth may have been a little more reserved but he was no less engaging. I loved the way that he tried to guide Eli but never tried to change him. The time that he took to figure out who "he" was, was authentic and believable. The uncertainty that he felt made sense. Watching these two build a friendship and grow together through that relationship was captivating and I could not put this book down. The author took me through the years of their lives and made them so real. One of the most beautiful books I have read, and also one of the funniest. I don't know the last time that I laughed so hard, from one catastrophe to the next. This book has everything you could ask for in a romance and then some. I could not recommend a better read if you are looking for something with a genuine, romantic feel.

What I loved about the dynamic of Jeremy and Reg's relationship was how ‘take charge' Reg became. Jeremy was the star but he liked Reg in control of things so he could focus on performing...Reg was the one person that seemed to care about Jeremy because he truly liked him and not because he could gain anything from knowing him. I think that was what Jeremy loved the most about Reg at first as well. That ‘like' soon started to reshape into something more. ...Since Jeremy never had a real relationship with anyone, it took him awhile to discover what he truly had with Reg. The slow burn was very sweet and romantic and so Cardeno C! Read this book for the nice permanent smile that will be on your face the whole time you read it. Also, because sometimes no angst is the very best thing in the world!!
