Cardeno C offered me a taste of something different and I have to say I like it. I was impressed with both of the main characters and their connection was very strong. Ethan being the runt of the pack is thoroughly enchanting in all his innocence and witty charm. Miguel is the vicious vampire with a heart that beats strongly for Ethan. Their relationship is what kept the story fresh and exciting. ... Cardeno C does it right once again.

KindleRomance: This touching love story, with a bit of magic and holiday spirit, melted my heart.Karla: Thought provoking, beautiful, touching short! This is a well-crafted, rich, delicate story, which is told in a matter of pages. This author knows how to make good use of his words.  I loved it!

I adored this. ADORED this. I loved how the author showed the immediate mating bond between the two, but also gave Simon reason not to believe in his own feelings. I loved how Mitch, the big Alpha wolf, the strong, silent protector, had a gentle and loving attitude toward Simon from the start, even though he was hurt when Simon, his mate, rejected him. He didn't give up, kept chipping away at the walls, slowly but surely. This is CC at the absolute best - a grandiose, romantic love story between two fated mates, without any contrived conflict, misunderstandings and other cliches we so often find in the books we read. It's the story of how one man quietly, persistently works his way into another man's heart, the mating bond working in his favor, but never taking choices away. As with all of CC's books, I was swept away by the wonderful, emotional writing, and closed this book with a sigh and a smile. Only Cardeno C. does this special brand of sweet, fluffy, fully satisfying romance.

It's a fun and entertaining book with a steady pace, a surprising amount of tenderness, considering Miguel's bad-ass attitude at the beginning, and some vivid world building. Both Miguel and Ethan have well developed personalities and they blend together nicely as a couple - and their chemistry - it's sizzling. There are several seamlessly placed secondary characters but I enjoyed Ethan's sweet sister, Crissy, the most. That's not to say a number of those other characters don't supply some needed action and danger - so watch out for troublemakers.

This book finishes the Home Series by Cardeno C and I must say that I have loved every word in all seven books of this series! I normally don't ever read books written in the first person but I didn't really notice them in this series they are that well written. Throughout every book you are always kept abreast of what everyone from previous books are doing and that's what makes a fantastic series in my eyes! If you want a series of stories that interact with each other then grab yourself a copy of The Home Series Collection by Cardeno C, you will not be disappointed!!
