I loved so many things about this book. At the top of that list are the characters. I loved the tension when they first met, and how they were thick as thieves in relatively short order. And the sex - very hot, oh yes it was! Of course, the story was intriguing and kept me in its grip. It had a touch of humor, family drama, danger, and an ending that left me very satisfied. I think Cardeno C. is well on the way to becoming a favorite author of mine. Awesome book - I'm looking forward to so much more!

Another great book and for me it was made better by the fact that these two men were so different, not just in species or in looks, but in the way they interacted with each other, that they did complement each other perfectly. This is a great read and I highly recommend it

Cardeno C. lived up to the challenge and came up with a truly remarkable back story to the Mate series.

I loved Ethan. He's such a good person that his wholesomeness just overwhelmed me and made me want to wrap him up and take him home. Ethan is innocent but very stubborn, which I adored. Ethan knows how to trust and how to be loyal. What surprised me was that I loved Miguel, too. Miguel is not innocent and he doesn't trust well. He is fiercely protective and tender with Ethan. Miguel is the spice to Ethan's sugar. They were such a great representation of two halves of a whole. I loved, loved, LOVED this book. Everything about it from the incredible writing to the strong and fascinating characters just pulled me in and kept me turning pages. Now I'm sad because I've finished and I don't know when the next book in the series will come out. Much thanks to Cardeno for giving me another set of wonderful men to add to my list of favorite couples.
