I really liked the latest chapter!! The fact that both Max and Josh are so fierce in protecting each other is just the sweetest thing. It was a little short, not much happened to the characters but considering the actual time span of the chapter was an afternoon/evening I thought that it was very good. It was emotional with the revealing of Max's medical condition and history to Josh, Frank and Kylie, that definitely made the chapter impact in my mind, even more than quasi violent scene with that ass, Tom. The only bone I have to pick with the chapter was the mom's reaction. I know that she is supposed to be a doctor and detached and had to deal with Max's episodes previously, but she was way too unemotional. Especially since you had it to where an episode had not happened in a very long time. I don't care if it an ongoing issue, when my daughter has an asthma attack I always get upset, I just wait until it is over. Maybe you plan to write that into the next chapter, I don't know, but as that is my only criticism, I thought I would share it. I really do hope that you continue to write your story now that you will be working from completely new material.
Thanks for the great story!
