Reviews

Their romance is like a slow burning fire on a cold night. Everything’s heating up perfectly! There’s medical issues and emotional drama that really moves the story along. This is pretty much a contemporary story about finding love in a small town. If you’re looking for super sweet and sexy, give Jesse’s Diner a read!

The TBR Pile

This is a lovely steamy M/M quickie. The audio narration is done well and brought the story alive. 

Love Bites Silk Ties

I thoroughly enjoyed this sexy and romantic story where love flowed easily between two good men while they found their place in each other's lives. Another fantastic treat from Cardeno C., who has quickly become one of my favorite authors.

The Romance Reviews

It has been a long time since a book grabbed me like this simply based on the connection and dialogue .. Reg and Jeremy who Reg eventually calls JJ build a wonderful friendship, the author created some wonderful dialogue, adorable banter and exchanges between these two that often had me grinning from ear to ear. Reg and JJ form a true bond, they come to rely on each other before they even become intimate. As these two gradually step into each others personal space, the reader can feel the attraction they share ...And when they do connect it was electric and it brought the emotions into the sex ... Reg and Jeremy truly fit into each other lives; they learned to live in each others space. This was book about two men, two adults finding a happy they never dreamed of with each other. In the end, the happy created for Reg and JJ warmed my soul.
