As with all of this author's work, you are captivated from the first word to the last. ... So, this story is told over a fifteen year timeframe and is told from all three men's POV starting with Charlie's. The way CC was able to set the stage for the story to be told was brilliant for they're not simply telling it. ...This story will pull so many emotions from you; heartache, happiness, triumph, loss; you go through and feel them all with Charlie or Chase as it was. You will absolutely adore these characters, but not all of them and certainly, not right away. ... The journey Charlie takes through life is a painful one, but the roads that he travelled took him exactly where he was meant to be. ... There are so many delicious layers to his wonderful story. The characters and their storylines are blended together perfectly. This book is an engrossing and, at 234 pages, substantial read. I highly recommend this book in addition to others written by this author. This is a definite must read.

What followed was a story of healing, letting go and learning to trust once again. .... I loved Chase! He was adorably, sweet, quirky and a hell of all lot of fun. .... Hell yeah, Cardeno C came through for me, yet again! .... I appreciated that Cardeno didn't just wrap it all up with a pretty bow. Nope, Cardeno made all of them work through their issues until they could move forward. ...As a fan of Cardeno C this book was everything I was expecting and as a hopeless romantic this story brought about the tears, the smiles and the "awww" moments I've come to expect from a fantastic romance.

There were a lot of funny moments where I found myself giggling out loud and looking like an idiot, like when Scott and Adan went shopping for dinner, and Adan’s drunken “seriously”... ahhh…*wipes away tear*, you really had to be there.

So I think the first thing that made this book for me was Charlie's voice. The way the story is told from his point of view and the way that his attitude comes through drew me in and had me falling in love before the end of the first chapter. ... This book will take you through everything, every emotion and thought and feeling in the best possible way. If you enjoyed the first two books in the Family series then adding this book to your library is a no brainer and if you haven't read the other two then stop what you are doing and read them now. You will thank me in the end. These books reaffirm that the best family is the family that you pick yourself and that when you are offered a second chance, take it! Cardeno is one of those authors that has become and auto-buy for me in a very short period of time. Fabulous stories and unforgettable characters are in every book!
