Reviews
Cardeno C hits the ball out of the park in Jesse's Diner, especially as it deals with some interesting twists and storylines.
The journey is fraught with frustration, but the destination was so worth it!
This author came highly recommended to me, and even still, I was completely unprepared for how much I enjoyed this book. The plot was well crafted and paced - just the right amount of detail to hook me - and characters that I absolutely adored....I truly enjoyed watching these two dance around each other so much that even when they finally gave in to the sexual tension, the scene was still profoundly romantic. Each fed a need in the other, and it thrilled me that no matter how stressful circumstances got, they made the effort to communicate and deepen their relationship. This book really revolved primarily around the developing romance between these two characters, so if you're a fan of a good character driven piece, I'd highly recommend Perfect Imperfections by Cardeno C - it's a fabulous piece that sucks you right in from the first word to the last!
It is super fun and extremely comforting.
This one was great! I always enjoy books by Cardeno...Once they realize what is between them, and the passion kicks in, the sex is very yummy! They are a good match eventually, I liked them as a couple. ....The writing was great.
