I loved this story. It is very short, but it is very well written. The characters have a bunch going on, but it doesn’t’ feel pressured. I like how this author can do characters that have insta-love, like this story and make it feel realistic. The sex scenes are some of the hottest I’ve read, ever. This story doesn’t have a bunch of angst or heavy drama, just a nice, feel good story. The kind that Cardeno C is famous for. I will be reading this book over and over.

I can’t tell you how much I loved this sweet love story between these characters. Even though it’s sort of a love at first sight book, their relationship is given a lot of time to grow before they act on it. There are many funny parts, one semi-angsty part, and a very happy ending. I definitely recommend this book and the rest of the series.

Positively phenomenal! A unique spin on the friends to lover theme with an amazing relationship-based story. Andrew Thompson and Caleb Lakes meet and become the best of friends while young teenagers. The story takes us through the next 20 years of their lives as they maintain their status as best friends with benefits. The question is whether or not they can ever move past this point. I loved both of these very well developed characters. Caleb was sweet, charming, an amazing friend, and a very strong person. It was adorable how he always had to be dressed to perfection. Andrew is brilliant, graduating from school early and ultimately becoming a top neurosurgeon. He's extremely kind but also very lonely due to his brilliance. He longs for a permanent relationship, but repeatedly chooses men who cheat on him. ... By the time they figured it out, I was crying happy tears! If you enjoy an amazing friends to lovers with benefits theme with great dialogue, strong characters, and an interesting life journey, this more than fits the bill.

Wow this is such a great and unique shifter story that gives you a swoon worthy romance with amazing characters. ....This story was the perfect blend of childhood best friends turned adult lovers. It was a perfectly sweet romance that had a twist of mystery and suspense. ...Cardeno C. has written a story that keeps you interested till the very end. By mixing shifter elements, prejudice, love, friendships and secrets together, we have a story that is part sweet with elements of mystery and danger. ...I will highly recommend this to lovers of shifters, and enduring love. You'll get mysterious happenings, a touch of danger and a very satisfying happy ending.

This was an absolutely fantastic story that kept me hooked from the very beginning. This is a hot book with two very different males that will keep you wanting more. I instantly fell in love with Jared and connected with him emotionally. It took me a little longer to fall in love with Lucas but once I did there was no turning back. Once these two face their feelings they will definitely have you completely in love with them.
