If you are a fan of either of these authors or of shifter stories this one is for you!

The way Cardeno C writes this novella is no different to their other excellent storylines and building of the main characters – they grow and get to know each other.

This book kind of sweeps into the readers' minds who ultimately gets swept into the author's tale willingly. ... The best parts of this story was really the relationship of Emilio had with his family and it was quite understandable that Spencer was envious of it that he really wanted to become a part of it. The rough housing type of sibling fun between the brothers and in-law was hilarious and their closing in as a unit to protect Spencer was incredibly sweet. ...This is romantic fiction at its best. I just fell for this whole idea of what love can be and how falling in love can be likened to a lightning strike. Needless to say, I fell asleep with a big smile on.

These are fictional characters, I know that, but they are so REAL! The plot is romance, it is mushy, it sent me to the 'awwwwwww' land and yet, it developed in such a way that was unrushed and oh, so romantic! The erotic scenes (**fanningmyselfsilly**) was a rush I am still blushing. That Jason ~ he is one naughty, naughty MAN!!!! WHEW!!! As for the rest of it? Well, let me just say: FAN YOURSELF SILLY AND LAUGH YOUR HEARTS OUT! Romantic as heck! Funny it sent me to tears. And smiling so goofy, it really hurts!

McFarland's Farm by Cardeno C. is a light, angst free novella. The story has very little conflict and when misunderstandings do arise, they are quickly resolved. The characters are well-developed with realistic insecurities and flaws. The romance is believable and the sex scenes are incredibly hot. All in all, it is a wonderful first installment in the Hope series that will leave fans eagerly awaiting future releases.
