Reviews

What I enjoy about this series is that there is a connection between the books and characters, but not in a way that they must all be read or read in order. The story is sexy, emotional, occasionally intense but light-hearted when it needs to be.

I love Cardeno C’s writing style, and this one is right up there with some of the author’s most emotion-evoking stories. And hot? Oh yes, this one is hot.

Hearts on Fire

This is even deeper than usual, it feels so intense, so important that these two discover what is happening. And at the same time a really hot passionate story is unfolding too. Brilliant, loved it, thank you!

I adored this book. Although Asher makes considerable changes in his life to accommodate Daniel's needs, I never felt that he was making a sacrifice. He genuinely adored making Daniel happy, while retaining the feeling of power in the relationship. He was able to give Daniel what he needed, but what was even more heartwarming to watch unfold, was the way Daniel was able to give Asher what he needed - what he didn't even know he needed until Daniel gave it to him. Asher makes more than a few mistakes, but his heart is in the right place. The story took an unexpected twist near the end, which made things even more interesting, and just when I thought Cardeno C. had broken my heart for good, she wrapped me in a warm hug and made everything right again. This one's going on my favorites shelf!

It's no secret that I am a huge Cardeno C fan. So it will come as no surprise that I loved He Completes Me when I first read it, and the second time, and the third...well, you see where I'm going with this. With He Completes Me, Cardeno C takes angst out of the equation and gives readers a story worthy of fairytale status. The outcast, black sheep of the family meets and falls in love with the white knight and in turn becomes a hero himself. It would be very poetic if not for Zach. He would say screw the poetry and find some vodka. Not one for waxing poetic, that Zach. ... I love the inner struggle that Zach suffers throughout this book. From accepting who he is to his certainty that he will never be good enough for Aaron, from his independence as a man without family to his newly found family. This book is really about Zach's growth, his forgiveness and acceptance of his family. It's a sweet, sweet story of finding love in an unexpected place and time and the growth of that love. And it also has a good bit of humor. It's a wonderful, feel good story.
