So many, many things made me happy in Cardeno C’s Rough Edges, but the biggest thing was how two men can learn and change their point of view. No huge changes in the characters, just an understanding that your beliefs can be wrong and maybe not everything is as straight forward as you thought.

I love that Cardeno writes stories with characters who aren’t perfect and they have flaws and problems just like real people. The characters are realistic and the storylines are interesting plus the sex is hot as hell. I love Cardeno and jump at the chance to read every one, these keep me reading into the wee hours to finish them.

Humorous, heartfelt, sexy romance full of great characters. ... Ben is such a humorous and zany narrator that I fell a bit in love with him. ... This is a sexy and emotional romance between Ben and Micah. Ben's inexperience with gay sex is simultaneously humorous, emotive and hot. These two men make sex fun but have a relationship based on friendship that I could see as a reader. ... I love the secondary characters here as well as the unhurried plot. ... I love romances set in communities and that's what this book had. I also love the unhurried plot of this book. ... The characters were given time to develop along with the romance. The best part of this plot is the resolution that went further than most books would have in this situation as the couple becomes a family. None of this felt rushed or forced but instead just unfolded in a story of love in all its forms.

This was the lightest, fluffiest, sweetest book I've read in a long time. I didn't even break for lunch reading this one because I couldn't tear myself away. Funny? Check (the fleshlight scene had me giggling AND blushing). Sexy? Definitely (once these guys get going, they're not shy). Romantic? The ending will make you swoon.

This story is part of a series and can be read in any order. This is a brilliant story that tells us the tale of Miguel and Ethan who we met briefly in Wake Me Up Inside. ... Miguel and Ethan are wonderful characters, Ethan with his simple needs and plain words and Miguel with his badass attitude and need to protect Ethan. I can't tell you how much I adored Ethan and his easy attitude, his willingness to forgive others and how he wraps Miguel around his little finger without even trying. I loved Miguel's take no crap attitude and how, when he accepted his feelings for Ethan, he would do anything for him even when it goes against what he wants to do. I loved the easy storyline that has just a smidge of danger and the sex is hot and they are made for each other in every way, it just warms you up seeing them together. The storyline is great and we learn a lot more about the world the paranormals live in, when they were even further removed from humanity and when the animosity between vampires and shifters was high. This story is an easy read with just a touch of danger from jealous vampires, Ethan and Miguel are this story, their coming together, being perfect for each other and providing just what the other needs, both of them helping to save the pack even when they turn their back on Ethan and the discovery…
