I just read through this in one sitting, I just couldn't stop. Brad, Drake and Max were exquisite, I love their bond. It was so real, that the pain of Brad's death became such an important part of the story. Drake is such a noble kind of guy, he loved Max, but he never did anything about it when Brad was alive. That's real friendship and love. It felt natural that Max and Drake should end up together after all the turmoil. An honorable mention to Cody, because he had insane strength. Being in love with someone who is in love with someone else, that's always a cauldron of pain waiting to happen. I'm glad he had the strength to walk away. All in all, this is a very beautiful story, and I'm glad I read it.
Cheers,
