The Half of Us
By Cardeno C.
Published: October 10th 2014 by Dreamspinner Press
Short-tempered, arrogant heart surgeon Jason Garcia grew up wanting a close-knit family, but believes he ruined those dreams when he broke up his marriage. The benefit of divorce is having as much random sex as he wants, and it’s a benefit Jason is exploiting when he meets a sweet, shy man at a bar and convinces him to go home for a no-strings-attached night of fun.
Eight years living in Las Vegas hasn’t dimmed Abe Green’s optimism, earnestness, or desire to find the one. When a sexy man with lonely eyes propositions him, Abe decides to give himself a birthday present—one night of spontaneous fun with no thoughts of the future. But one night turns into two and then three, and Abe realizes his heart is involved.
For the first time, Abe feels safe enough with someone he respects and adores to let go of his inhibitions in the bedroom. If Jason can get past his own inhibitions and open his heart and his life to Abe, he might finally find the family he craves.

Jason only wants one thing when he goes out, it's a good time with no thoughts beyond enjoying himself with a one night stand. But when he hears that laugh he determined to do what it takes to get the guy behind it even if it is more trouble than he usually cares for. But when one night turns into two when they run into each other again things slowly start to change for him.
Abe is a relationship guy, 10 years younger than Jason, he's also allot more innocent. So what is it about this guy that he goes completely out of character? There's something about this guy that keeps him going for more, it could be his forever or it might just be the stupidest thing he's ever done.
Jason is domineering, he knows what he wants and goes for it. He married young for the wrong reasons, and screwed it up, but now he lives life the way he wants.
Abe, is sweet and caring he's got a shyness about him that makes you want to know him. He's there for others and has a way of just knowing what they need. He's willing to try anything if he thinks it'll lead to happiness in the end.
Their story was a give and take, when one needed the other was there and vice versa. I loved seeing how open and honest Abe was and how willing he was to do things just because he was trusting his gut. Jason never knew what hit him. He saw someone he wanted and went after him even though he didn't understand his reasoning at the time. He didn't hide away from his wants and he too trusted his gut to know what he wanted. Great Read!
