This is one of the most well written and diversely characterized Shifter series you can read, in my humble opinion. With each new installment, more of the Shifter world reveals itself. The people, the laws and the stubborn, unyielding beliefs some of them refuse to let go of. I love the way CC weaves the different stories together. This book and the storyline ties directly into the other three books and perhaps gives details and information you were wanting from those books. But mostly, it's a love story about two men, both stubborn as hell, but also loyal to a fault.

Beautifully written, deliciously told.

When they did figure it out, well, I was so thrilled that what they'd been looking for was right there waiting and they got the happy ever after they both deserved.

Something in the Way He Needs is the story of finding the one who calls to your heart. It is an emotional journey into the dynamics of a relationship, while exploring the question of who holds the power? ... I loved the premise of this story as aloof, super-cool Asher makes the decision to pursue easy going Daniel and both men go for the promise of a relationship. I liked these two and their sex scenes are definitely hot and plentiful. I enjoyed Asher's growth through his missteps and devastating choices. The strong difference in the two main characters created believable tension throughout the story. There are wonderful secondary characters in the book. Oliver, Asher's friend and employee and Oliver's fiancée, Shirley give the story some lighter moments. Let's just say, Oliver doesn't have a clue while long-suffering Shirley tries to ring his number. Shirley and Daniel definitely hit it off as friends.

So I think the first thing that made this book for me was Charlie's voice. The way the story is told from his point of view and the way that his attitude comes through drew me in and had me falling in love before the end of the first chapter. ... This book will take you through everything, every emotion and thought and feeling in the best possible way. If you enjoyed the first two books in the Family series then adding this book to your library is a no brainer and if you haven't read the other two then stop what you are doing and read them now. You will thank me in the end. These books reaffirm that the best family is the family that you pick yourself and that when you are offered a second chance, take it! Cardeno is one of those authors that has become and auto-buy for me in a very short period of time. Fabulous stories and unforgettable characters are in every book!
