Wake Me Up Inside has a great balance of romance, sweetness and angst.

The chemistry between Jason and Abe is hot. The sex is off the charts. It's sweet and funny. Such an enjoyable read. ... The author manages to get under the skin of the characters and give us such exquisite insight into their feelings, that it is difficult not to become part of the story.... There were some wonderful moments of humour, some moments of pure lust, some of deep emotion. Great storytelling.

That being said, I still enjoyed reading it, just not quite so much as the others.

Cardeno C. ... stories are always a soft build immersed with heat and heart... This book has a great feel to it. You get to see the growth of Asher and the bond grow between these two which was sweet yet still spicy. As always Cardeno C. knows how to infuse so much emotion and heart into these stories that you are reeled in from beginning to end routing for the couple.

I still have that happy feeling inside, the same every Cardeno C. book leaves me with...I can't have enough of Cardeno's books.
