Reviews

There’s exactly the right mix of romance, sex, and angst.  I will never hesitate to recommend his/her books

Emotionally laden romance with excellent alternating dual first-person narration that I devoured. Its cloying sweetness and perfection hit my romance sweet-tooth perfectly. ... I'm a sucker for the friends to lovers romance trope and I got that here but without a lot of angst that usually happens for the previously "straight" lead. Jake's total acceptance of his love for Nate had a simplicity that is rarely found in gay-for-you books and I ate it with a spoon! This book is emotionally intense where every sex scene is steeped in the men's grandiose feelings for each other and I loved this huge romantic relationship....I loved how this romance was told as well as the huge, idealistic relationship between two nearly perfect men.

I enjoyed The Half of Us. It made me smile and laugh. It's well written, has a good flow, sizzling chemistry, nicely crafted relationships and great secondary characters. It's an entertaining read and I hope you like it as much as I did.

Literary Nymphs Reviews

Beans:  I really loved this book. ...mostly it was about two men finding each other. ...Just two men who became wonderful friends, lovers, and then partners. A beautiful book full of love and life.Nina:  This is a fantastic book ...This book rocked the sexy, fun and the behind the scenes look at the talented artist. ...I enjoyed the ease of the friends to lovers aspect of their romance. There was sexual tension and a slow, sweet build up to them moving to a sexual relationship that allowed time for the trust and emotional intimacy to develop....It all comes together so beautifully and I was left in awe of Cardeno C's ability to take a slightly implausible scenario and make me not only believe it, but rejoice and run out and tell people how wonderful this story is.
