Another Highly Recommended Story from The Mates Series by Cardeno C.

If you are looking for an intense love story that is very hot, then look no further, this is the book for you!

 Lots of sexy, sweet scenes

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.

Sweet and sappy and adorable. A feel-good story about second chances at love and trusting again. The book fully met the expectations I had formed based on the blurb, and thus succeeded in what it promised. ... I like the characterizations. ... I liked how the author created two very different characters, opposites in almost every aspect, and completely made it work. The naughty scenes were holy hot boysecks, but underlined with tons of emotions, and the dialogue felt organic and realistic. I also liked the supporting characters in Emilio's family and Spencer's friend. ... The author's voice (new to me) was lovely, the writing crisp and still emotionally charged. A great book with which to spend a few hours escaping from your own life.
