When you sign on to read a Cardeno C. novel, you are positive to get three things in return: first, a romance that is sweet and rewarding; second, a happy ever after that comes with very little angst or troubles; and third, a feel good emotional reward that leaves you smiling long after the novel’s end. Cardeno C. is a master at romance—sweet, sometimes sappy, yet always a complete story where boy meets boy, boy gets boy and they both live happily ever after....This author dares to create a happy ever after for an average guy, with an above average man who desires him. In the end, Not a Game becomes a magical fairytale romance that delivers all the feels and emotions with a twist—characters who are, for once, utterly real and worthy of love.

"Short, but sweet and really well done, this friends to lovers novella hit my sweet spot early on. ...John Solo does such a great job narrating both the male and female character voices of the story.... I loved when Ethan and Jude get together the story doesn’t fade to black immediately, but the reader/listener is given time to see the interaction between the characters and to get a better sense of their relationship and how well they work together....I wouldn’t change anything about the story, it was just what I was looking for right when I needed it: a perfectly charming, fluffy romance with a wonderful HEA."

All Of Me is an emotional but sexy novella that would be the perfect way to spend an afternoon (or and hour or two if you're a speed reader).The author strikes the right balance between hot and sweet, making this a win for me.

Cardeno C. has created an impressive charming romance that I vastly enjoyed.

This is a delightful story that I will never forget.
