CC's books are always compulsively readable. I can't put them down. I read this book late into the night, woke up the next morning, and read some more. 

I enjoyed Not a Game and highly recommend it. With its distinctly different characters, strong scenes of physical and emotional connection, and sweet HEA, it is a lovely m/m romance with excellent promise for a new series.

Not a Game is sweet and delicious and left me with a smile. Jaime and Oliver get their HEA and it may or may not have brought a tear to my eye. Allegedly. 

Highly enjoyable book full of humor with a sexy and tender romance that develops over time....I loved Seth and Eli as characters and how their relationship develops over time from friends to lovers. ... It's rare in romance reading to see a true friendship in leads and I adored this aspect of the novel. However, that isn't to say their relationship doesn't turn spicy when they're both ready for it, after all, this is a Cardeno C novel! ...But even better than the well written sexual chemistry is the emotional intimacy between Eli and Seth. ...I think humor is extremely difficult to convey, especially in a romance novel but this novel had many laugh out loud moments for me.

I really loved watching these men change and meld together. Their relationship definitely isn't an easy one. They have to overcome their differences and their insecurities to make it work.
