Not a Game' is probably the most romantic book I've read in a very long time. I mean that in the truest sense of the word. Everything about the story, the main characters, and the secondary ones, just worked and fit together seamlessly. 

Another Highly Recommended Story from The Mates Series by Cardeno C.

This is a shifter world with a very interesting twist to the Mating of shifters. ... The book follows these guys from birth until they are thirty, so you get to see them at all stages of their life and relationship. I liked that. I also liked that their romance didn't evolve until later than you would expect. Before that they were truly just best friends although they definitely always had that bond. I also really enjoyed the fact that Jonah never knew that Zev and Pup were the same creature. Yes, he has a bond with the wolf too who's been with him throughout his life. It was a good read. I could feel the bond between the two guys and as they began to decline, I really worried for them. I loved the mystery of why Jonah is the way that he is... a bit stronger than he should be as a human and he always has a sense when Zev is around. The twist with Zev being as strong as he was and a great Alpha for his pack made him a great hero. You got to see him strong and dominate with them, but then got to see his soft, mushy side with Jonah. But I truly loved that both guys are really VERY strong. It was an interesting read and I definitely enjoyed it.

I recommend this to those who like new and unique shifter stories, those who love their M/M romance with some smoking hot sex scenes, including a first time experience.

What a neat world we see for Ethan and Miguel in Until Forever Comes. ...Ethan was so used to being shunned and the weak one his whole life that it was nice to see him so brave....What did he have to lose at this point, except he really truly believes that is will work with Miguel because they are true Mates. I loved it! Miguel was a force! His über strength was impressive! ....The chemistry between Ethan and Miguel was off the chart reactions! The blood-letting and binding… so mind-blowing! The lust and passion were intense and burned bright the whole time. There was nothing these two would not do for each other or to each other! Cardeno C is the love master!
