When a story makes you feel all squishy and happy it’s always hard to pinpoint that one or two things about this book that made you feel that way. Cardeno did that to me in this story!

Of course I live for the next Cardeno C book, no matter what genre it is because I know I'll have something enjoyable to read.

We really get to see the awesomeness that is Jared and the growth that occurs with Lucas. ... When I got through with this book, my thought was how much it made me smile. And my second was, it's just lovely.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. ...I adore the whole family aspect of this story. It has plenty of heat, but we get the sweetness and real life problems as well. And I love how he has a great relationship with his ex-wife....This book has a cast of likable and relatable characters which I think is wonderful.

Beans: This novella is spectacular. Shiloh is a beautiful combination of shy and quirky. He struggles to find his way but Travis's calm demeanor and strength are a balm to Shiloh. They are both incredible men and there is passion, humor, love, and and a faith in something amazing. ... Brilliantly written and executed, this is my favorite of Cardeno C's novellas.Nina:  I've read this a couple times now. It keeps getting better. There were so many beautiful, touching moments. I laughed, cried and smiled throughout. ... I loved the messages that are clear and resonant throughout. The sweet, tender and sensitive handling of serious and painful issues. A story of hope, second chances, new beginnings, faith, family, trust and love, so much love. A lot of that love will be yours. This is a holiday story that you will read again every year. I know I will.
