An enjoying read and a guilty pleasure.
With a mixture of signature world building and strong character development, JOHNNIE is the first in a new collection that is sure to be a "must read" from this point forward. Captivating and true to life, CC's characters earn their happy endings one lesson at a time and I loved every minute I spent in this world! - See more at: http://glbt.theromancereviews.com/viewbooksreview.php?bookid=18476#sthash.YUV2cNQs.dpuf
He Completes Me is such a sweet love story.
It was like a fairy tale, but real. And that right there is why I love every one of Cardeno's characters. They feel real because they deal with real issues. Yes, Spencer and Emilio developed strong feelings for each other in a short time, but I can accept that because the connection Cardeno developed between went beyond lust. You could feel it with each honest word they spoke and with every intimate touch they shared. ... Ahhh, to lose myself once again in one of Cardeno's stories. It's like coming home, in a way. A fun, heart-warming story full of those "aww" moments I'm so fond of, Strong Enough has the right combination of sweet and sexy. What more can I ask for? I have to say that Strong Enough has become one of my favorite books by Cardeno to date.
Cardeno C. writes M/M erotica with love,tenderness and a good dose of hot sex. I really enjoy this author's work and am happy to read and review it anytime.
