I really appreciated how connected these men were, in all ways, and was happy to see them finally realize that being together was where they would fit the best.The narration of Alexander Collins never ceases to make me happy. He has such range, and talent for creating voices for the characters that I haven’t heard in his other Emile City characters. The differences between these two men could be noticed immediately, merely by his tone of voice. 

Author Cardeno C. pens an excellent, realistic relationship story in The Half of Us where readers witness the good, the bad, and all the hairy moments in between.

it was fantastic....I couldn't put it down, I had to take my e-reader just so I could sneak 45 minutes of reading while I waited to pick up my kids. There is a lot of sexiness that takes place in this book, but what I love is there is also a story line to go along with it. I really enjoyed watching both mcs struggle to keep it a one time thing, cause that is all Jason wants and Abe knows the score, only to realize they can't fight the pull they have to one another. I also must say I loved, loved, loved, Jason's ex-wife....Cardeno knows how to write a low angst, fun filled, beautiful love story. If you have not read anything by this author, I suggest you start now you won't be disappointed. I promise.

I really liked the leads, Abel and Kai, and while Kai's sister annoyed me at first, she had her heart in the right place. I'll also say that All of Me is kind of cheesy-sweet and you have to go in with a frame of mind wanting to see a couple who were obviously meant to be together find their way. It is paranormal in the sense that there are shifters in the book, but it is no great world-building paranormal read. It's not meant to be. It is what it is, a contemporary romance with two characters who are hurting with a fix in sight....This is a really nice and quick shifter read. Although there is a darker reason for the two lovers to have not made their bond occur earlier, the MC's are good together. ...if you are feeling like a romantic and sweet paranormal, with the sex all kinds of good too, then this is a nice little 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.
