'Not a Game' is a wonderful, light, feel good read for anyone who doubts that love is the one thing that comes in all sizes and shapes because it's not the package that matters but the heart and soul that resides within.
It was good to catch up with Jake and Nate again.
What is most interesting about this novel is the description of the relationship between shifters and vampires. In most paranormal novels, it is the vampires that are portrayed and the ones feeling superior to humans. In this story/series, however, Cardeno C. portrays the shifters as the elitist and the vampires as the ones trying to assimilate into human society. What I also enjoyed is that Cardeno C. portrays Ethan as a wolf with a host of issues, but the one who, according to his sister, would save them all. My favorite part of the story is the interaction between Miguel and Katherine. I see her as a petulant, inquisitive child, even though she is well over 300 years old.
Ahhh, Cardeno C. has produced another sweet and sexy love story with wonderfully characters you can't help loving. ... I loved this story, it made me feel all sweet and gooey and sappy *sigh*. Spencer's and Emilio's relationship develops quickly with Emilio being sensitive enough to see Spencer's invisible scars, he is patient and supportive but he doesn't let it ruin his and Spencer's fun in the least. Spencer seems to be a very gentle soul and Emilio helps him to broaden his experiences and to give him the support he doesn't know he needs, together they make a fantastic sweet couple who you adore. ... I recommend this to those who love sweet sexy love stories, putting the past firmly in the past, some hot sexy scenes, squishing the ex and a delightful ending.
Please note that previous characters don't play a role so it can be read as a standalone. ...There's lots of vivid imagery in this well written and paced story ... There's plenty of emotion and angst, and the danger and betrayal is woven throughout the last half which keeps the pages turning. There are several twists, and we even learn a little more about pack history, which I enjoyed.
