So this week is comfort week, where we each picked a book that to us says COMFORT... Now I know what you are thinking “that is not a book but an author”, yes I know this but let me tell you something. When I want comfort ANYTHING by Cardeno is a comfort read.
This is an amazing story and I loved the dual points of view.
The book opens with Shiloh trying to take his own life with a razor blade, but this is just the beginning of the story. ... This story isn't like anything I have ever read before. Maybe it was a Hanukkah miracle, maybe it is what truly happens at a time like this. Most of us will never know, but Shiloh had the experience of a lifetime... literally. ... Like I said before, this is a very original story and there is a little Hanukkah magic and the spirit of the holiday season will creep right into your heart. This is definitely another win for Cardeno C.
This story is stunning in a way that all Cardeno C's stories are. ... I loved the non-linear way this novella was written. It was new and interesting and really the perfect way to tell Shiloh's story. It is beautifully and concisely written, but the characters are complex and fully developed. I didn't feel like I missed out on anything the way I have in the past with some novellas. The story itself reminded me a little bit of It's A Wonderful Life, one of my favorite Christmas movies. Although there were elements of the story that could have made it a little gloomy, the mood instead was endearing and warm. There was the perfect balance of realism and fantasy. I loved these characters, especially the way that they seemed to be confident and vulnerable at the same time. This was a beautiful story of second chances and the power of love. Highly recommended.
Reg and JJ's relationship was so sweet. Reg was JJ's protector, carer, P.A and lover all in one sexy hulk of a package and JJ would be lost without him. Their love was very apparent and very addictive. This was such a great book. There was no angst or heart-break, just a fantastic, fun plot with plenty of laughs to be had. If you are looking for a humorous, light and sexually charged read then this is for you.
