I quickly became enamored with Zev, Jonah and their world. I was glad that I got to come along for the ride and was treated to a few surprises along the way. Love is a precious thing and these two learn to grab for it and fight hard to keep it. Their story is a wonderful addition to this series and I hope that we get to see more from this world.

Every time I read a Cardeno C. book, I am left teary-eyed, smiling and utterly fulfilled. 

Dark Divas Reviews

Control by Cardeno C. and Mary Calmes was so sweet and romantic, I couldn't keep the smile off my face. I loved Vy and Robert. Tender-hearted, loving and fiercely protective described both main characters in this wonderful tale of duty and love....Calm in the face of turmoil and danger, Robert burrowed into Vy's heart and eventually into the ket, as Vy's mate. The sex was steamy, yet not he-man over the top. Sensuality was the key, every time Vy and Robert coupled, whether it was lazing on the couch or steaming up the sheets...Both authors write with compassion and never lose the integrity of their stories. Control is a must read!

Sexy Erotic Xciting

What we get here is an epic love story, a bit of magic and a poignant reminder that everything happens for a reason, even if that reason isn't necessarily known to you. The relationship between Shiloh and Travis was beautiful and sweet and committed, and I loved every minute of it. The sexy times were emotionally charged, and only made their connection stronger. ... What I got from Cardeno C. is a feel-good, sweet and fluffy magical love story. I needed it.

My Fiction Nook

I enjoyed Eli's character as he attempted to get Seth to fall for him and it was only his young age that helped Seth keep him at arm's length. ....It was hard to define what the funniest part of the story was....Eli finally got his man, but it wasn't until he had given up proving that persistence does pay off! The love between Eli and Seth was beautiful and inspiring.
