The writing is excellent as always. I couldn’t put this down and in fact started reading it again as soon as I’d finished. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a sweet, somewhat unique, low-angst romance. It’s funny, terribly sweet and somewhat thought provoking.

This is a fun beautifully written book of two men meeting at a time in their life that they are receptive to finding love. A book about finding yourself and becoming the man you are meant to be. About love and devotion.

What I Liked: Ethan may be the younger man here but he knows his mind and is willing to fight for Miguel which I loved. Ethan has a pure love for Miguel that allows no doubts or fears and I enjoyed this earnest romance. Miguel tries valiantly to send Ethan away, both because they're different species and because he doesn't think he's a good for Ethan but Ethan isn't having it. Ethan sees right through Miguel pitiful attempts to push him away and stands firm in his love and acceptance for Miguel and this made for a delightful romance in my opinion. The sexual intimacy is much more frequent and graphic than I remember in book one but since I love erotic romance that was a good thing. I also enjoyed how biologically Miguel and Ethan were destined to be true mates. This fact strengthened the insta-mate trope that is used here and makes it a tad different than other romances in the genre. What I Also Liked: I also liked the inclusion of Ethan's wolf pack and Miguel's vampire clan. Ethan is the runt of his pack and has been treated as such for years so to see Miguel stick up for him and truly value him was a just what I wanted. Miguel's dark nature is brilliantly showcased in how he deals with his clan when they cause potential harm to Ethan. In romances readers are often told a hero is powerful and ruthless but this book shows…

An incredible story that is charming, loving, witty, humorous, touching and moving. I would recommend this to… everyone who wants a story that leaves you with a happy warm heart, a smile on your face and a sheen of tears in your eyes. Get this book, a bottle of wine and curl up on your sofa and enjoy a brilliant story.

Something in the Way He Needs is the first book in the new Family series by Cardeno C. I'm going to make this review short and to the point. It's good - really good - I hope you'll take a chance and read it good. First let's address the BDSM. Yes, there are aspects of BDSM because Asher comes from that world but the story doesn't dwell heavily on it. If fact, just the opposite. There's light spanking and lots of dominant hot sex but I think this is the first book I've read where the author writes a convincing story of love and its emotional impact making a Dom change his lifestyle for the man he loves. It's so realistic I nearly cried later in the book. I like both Asher and Daniel. They're pretty complex individuals with well-developed personalities and their pasts play heavily on their present, making each deeply flawed. The plot is nicely constructed with a smooth flow, there's vivid imagery, good secondary character integration and a few surprises to keep it interesting and the pages turning. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
