I absolutely loved the dynamic between Jason and Abe! ....Jason and Abe were on fire from the second they met. ...Their connection was so strong from day one. And, true to form, CC brings the heat, but also the quirky and fun.

The Book Vixen

Strong Enough by Cardeno C. was a beautiful sentimental love story that kept me warm inside and put a smile on my face. I loved the younger confident man meets shy older professor story line. ... The dynamics between Emilio and Spencer flew off the pages as their synergy meshed and their personalities complimented each other. .. Strong Enough held the meaning of life; who one falls in love with can't always be helped, a family should always be on your side (even though that doesn't always happen), but if there is strength of will and character, love will be found. Cardeno C. wrote this strength in Emilio and Spencer and happiness prevailed. Strong Enough flew to this reviewer's top ten list of favorite books.

Dark Diva Reviews

Cardeno did it again, another brilliant book I couldn't put down. ... For Zev, the future Alpha and leader of the pack, was never about finding a mate it was about timing to let everyone know he found his mate when he was a little over 1 year old, and that said true mate was a boy name Jonah. A lot of things had to happen before Zev can introduce Jonah as his mate. A long time spend apart from each other that only hurts them both every day. Secrets, some that are kept to protect the ones they love. Some, that they didn't even know existed. And Zev and Jonah, GOD! they are hot together!!! ... I can't wait to read book II, Cardeno got me hooked again.
