This is one of the most well written and diversely characterized Shifter series you can read, in my humble opinion. With each new installment, more of the Shifter world reveals itself. The people, the laws and the stubborn, unyielding beliefs some of them refuse to let go of. I love the way CC weaves the different stories together. This book and the storyline ties directly into the other three books and perhaps gives details and information you were wanting from those books. But mostly, it's a love story about two men, both stubborn as hell, but also loyal to a fault.

I have to admit this is probably now my favourite story by Cardeno C because for me it had all the vital elements fitting together in such a short story. 

I really appreciated how connected these men were, in all ways, and was happy to see them finally realize that being together was where they would fit the best.The narration of Alexander Collins never ceases to make me happy. He has such range, and talent for creating voices for the characters that I haven’t heard in his other Emile City characters. The differences between these two men could be noticed immediately, merely by his tone of voice. 

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.

This story ensnared me from the beginning until the very end. The complexity of the plot and the characters brought the story to life as it unfolded... This is one story that I will never forget and I recommend it to anyone who enjoys a great love story!
