I loved the humor with which Ethan tells his story and the change in mood from totally flippant and somewhat annoyed with life to thoughtful, appreciative and loving at the end. ... Deep feelings and good characterizations are not easy to develop in such a short story, but the author manages it really well. Ethan pulled me in from the very start; while it was the initial humor that made me smile, it was his cluelessness that kept me reading. I wanted to know if he'd get it. And at the end, when he finally admitted how he felt, the depth of his emotions was very rewarding. If you like short, sweet stories with a (temporal) twist, you will probably like this one.

Overall, this is a fluffy, fun, and HAPPY read about two charming Jewish boys falling in love, a perfect ending to a sexy, romantic series.

This Novella was a vacation to Hope Arizona and the quiet life of Jared McFarland. It's a story I loved with a few chuckles disguised around a familiar message. Cardeno C doesn't fail to bring happily ever after to the very loveable character of Jared McFarland and somehow pairs him with his polar opposite, Lucas...The story was an easy read and left me with a renewed sense of faith and optimism in human nature. Four Stars.

I absolutely loved Control. It is beautifully written with so many elements that worked perfectly for me. …The world building is wonderful…I also love the way the men's animal natures are done so well. Whether it is Robert's love of nesting and cuddling, or Vy's pleasure at flying and almost literal ruffled feathers when he gets worked up, we really get a nice sense of the animals within these men. The story is called Control, and that theme runs throughout the book….I loved the world these authors created and the wonderful way they portray the shifters. I found Robert and Vy such a great match for each other, one big and gentle and the other feisty and small. The two men are so different, but somehow they find comfort and strength in each other in such a lovely way. The story is romantic and sexy and really engaging. I just loved Control and very highly recommend it.

Nina: This book is everything that the Home series means to me. Love, friendship, family, growth, relationships, dreams, romance, hot sex, faith, hope, beauty and a delicious kiss of angst. ... This book made me laugh, frequently out loud, there were looks. There are some of the funniest scenes I have ever read in a romance. Beans: Walk with Me is the best book Cardeno C has written in the Home series. It was everything I look for in a good book. The characters felt real. The story drew me in from the first page to the last. It was sweet, funny, lovely, and sexy as all hell. ... I laughed so hard my stomach hurt. I laughed even harder the second time I read the book. Yes I have read it four times already...it's that good. And the the sex? Wowza. Hold on to your hats ladies and gentlemen. Cardeno C takes off the brakes and kicks it into high gear. ...This story is a must read. Yes, you can read it before you read any others, but after you do, you will want to know about all the other men of the Home Series.
