I love Cardeno C.'s writing and I usually end up with a massive smile after being swept away by gorgeous writing and a romance that makes your heart sing and sweeps you along with the characters.  This was no exception: beauty is in the eye of the beholder and this was certainly a beauty in more ways than one.

This book is really about second chances and realising your opportunities when they present themselves and grasping on to them. ....I enjoyed this story a lot. It has a strong message that life is too precious to throw away and you should enjoy every day and take joy in the things you have.

This was a sweet short read that will have you smiling at the romance that builds between these two. I loved Jared and his strong presents. Lucas was a surprise too, his character turned into more than just a spoiled rich guy. I am looking forward to reading more from CC.

"Every human being is made in the image of God and he makes no mistakes." LOVED Eli as soon as he showed up on the page. He made me laugh so hard I had tears in my eyes. And poor Seth had no idea how to handle it. Eli is young and brash and so eager to experience everything. His personality jumped off the pages and pulled you right in. Seth may have been a little more reserved but he was no less engaging. I loved the way that he tried to guide Eli but never tried to change him. The time that he took to figure out who "he" was, was authentic and believable. The uncertainty that he felt made sense. Watching these two build a friendship and grow together through that relationship was captivating and I could not put this book down. The author took me through the years of their lives and made them so real. One of the most beautiful books I have read, and also one of the funniest. I don't know the last time that I laughed so hard, from one catastrophe to the next. This book has everything you could ask for in a romance and then some. I could not recommend a better read if you are looking for something with a genuine, romantic feel.

It was delicious, beautiful, hot and sexy and lots and lots of other words that just wouldn't do it justice.
