The narrator, Alexander Collins, does an amazing job with the voice work on this book. We get not only distinct voices for each character, but there are subtle changes as they age over the course of the story. Pacing and style are some of the best, as those who have heard Collins’ narrations before have come to expect. Voices are strong and the interplay between them is a lovely thing to hear when handled by someone who obviously takes his voice work seriously. It adds a new layer to the story told by Cardeno C. We are treated to some top notch narration.

This is the first book in the Mates series and is a fun one I like to re-read. Zev is the son of a pack alpha and is supposed to mate with a female wolf. Only, he's finding himself more and more attracted to his best human friend, Jonah. And there's no such thing as a gay shifter. This is a bit different from my usual fare because there wasn't a clear villain or straight plot line. It was more like a peak inside the lives of these two men, which is perfect if that's what you're looking for. I love the two heroes, and I loved reading as they fought (or tugged) on their chemistry and created a bond.

Home Again by Cardeno C. is a very emotionally charged book....However the level of connection, the pace of the story and the characters is truly amazing. I love this start to this series and look forward to more in the future.

I really enjoyed the story and the characters in it. ...One thing I always like in Shifter stories and loved in this one is the bond between two mates destined to be together. It is hard to imagine anything more romantic than that. Of course the bond being unbreakable has a flipside; not even betrayal or a long time apart can diminish the pull. ...Overall this was a rather sweet, well written and very sexy paranormal romance.

I loved watching the "faux-lationship" between Reg and Jeremy grow....Loved how Reg was with Jeremy. Yes at first he was there to see the world while acting as Jeremy's "pretend" boyfriend, but there was always something more between them. This is the first of Cardeno C's books that I have read, but I have already added a few more to my TBR list and to my Kindle.
