“To Touch You” by Cardeno C is an interesting twist on the forbidden love theme in multiple dimensions. Not only is there the crossing of the taboo line between shifters and vampires, there is Sal’s initial condition which makes him even more of an anathema, plus the rejection of the bond complicates things considerably. I love seeing how things start with foreshadowing of Yoram’s future role as he is calm and firm even at such a young age. It was fun watching him grow into the predictions for his future and I ached at his determination to care for his mate. 

GAHHHHHH. Cardeno C got me again with Rough Edges. Two more boys to add to my list of favorites. I’m a sucker for a friend/enemy story. Rich pretty boy Brent and brooding hard working Kyle. Talk about polar opposites, but you can’t always judge a book by its cover especially when it comes to these boys. They are so much more then what they want us to see…..
It’s amazing how much information and character development CC can put in a short story. Definitely a fun, flirty and hot read

This was another excellent book by Cardeno C. She always finds a way to make me laugh while still having a great sexy story with fully relatable characters at the same time.

This is a nice book, a character and romance driven story that has no dramas or miscommunication. It is driven very much by the development of the relationship between Reg and Jeremy.... I totally bought the fact that Jeremy fell for Reg and nothing felt forced or awkward..... It was also the time taken by Cardeno C to work out their relationship – this book is over a period of a year – Jeremy's realizations, and the slow burn to them being together, that were particularly well written.

This book kind of sweeps into the readers' minds who ultimately gets swept into the author's tale willingly. ... The best parts of this story was really the relationship of Emilio had with his family and it was quite understandable that Spencer was envious of it that he really wanted to become a part of it. The rough housing type of sibling fun between the brothers and in-law was hilarious and their closing in as a unit to protect Spencer was incredibly sweet. ...This is romantic fiction at its best. I just fell for this whole idea of what love can be and how falling in love can be likened to a lightning strike. Needless to say, I fell asleep with a big smile on.
