Reviews
This is one HOT SEXY little read. .... I love how much emotions are in Cardeno's stories and how connected I feel to the characters. ...A short, sweet novel of romance and a happily ever after. Two misunderstood characters who take the time to get know one another instead of falling immediately into bed is a refreshing, and welcome, change from the norm.
Strange Bedfellows is definitely a story I can recommend highly, and one I will look forward to reading again. Sweet and clever is always a winning combination for me, and as a bonus, it is not cloying at all, and it gave me yet another favorite couple to add to my list.
The book is extremely well-written and will warm your heart, make you smile and care for the characters, make you feel heartbroken and smitten. It will make you fall in love. And make you fall in love all over again, everytime you re-read this book.
The two bond and develop and beautiful friendship. I loved how Reg was there for him because he needed someone. ... Slowly their friendship starts building into more and its amazing the see the change in their relationship. ... you will love this story and you will love Jeremy and Reg!
This is a delightful story that I will never forget.
