This is the second in the Family series by Cardeno C, but can be read as a standalone, as the characters do not overlap with the previous book.

I gotta admit, I liked this one a lot better than the first one in the series!

Wow, these two don't know the meaning of slow. They went from meeting to moving in quicker than I could eat my lunch!!! Don't know about insta-love but boy this was insta-nesting!

Spencer is the shy professor, pretty much obsessed with the hot construction worker he has been perving on for the past couple of weeks. Spencer has not gone unnoticed by Emilio - said construction worker - and when Emilio makes his move, there is no mistaking the come on!

And from there, things move full steam ahead.

Even though Spencer is 38 to Emilio's 22, there is a role reversal in their relationship, with Emilio taking on the protector role. At times though, Spencer felt more like an inexperienced 16 year old with his first boyfriend more than a smart, successful professor, but I could understand his trust issues and his hesitance.

I loved Emilio and all his family, especially his brother Henry and his sister Alicia. They were funny and wise and just all around likeable.

If you are in for a sweet, comfort read then this is the book for you. But have your dentist on speed dial because the sweet factor is turned up to the max.
