And now I can be happy too what a wonderful story, thank you for sharing!

Okay, so, this is a great story. The characters live and breathe, the dialog is true to life, I literally feel the emotions as I read through the story. I am completely on Jonah's side here, Ren was absolutely wrong to do what he did and although Jonah is using his running shoes, he is acting according to the needs of his heart. There are lots of arguments for and against so many of the motives and interactions in this story, but for people who have lived through these types of situations I can honestly say that Jonah, whatever his faults might be, acted in the only way he could to maintain his own sanity and integrity. My heart aches for Jonah, but all I feel for Ren is pity that he threw away love for arrogance and childish spite.

I am enjoying this story, and really enjoy the subtle world of Warcraft hints. Thank you and keep it coming!

This will be a review of the story as a whole, and not just this chapter. I expect quality in the things I choose to read - characters I can either love or hate, continuity, good editing and correct spelling. I need to be able to immerse myself in the story without being annoyed by clunky bits. I am really enjoying this story. I like the characters, the writing flows well, and the storyline keeps me interested, although I'm not quite sure how to describe the writing style I like the slightly more formal language. I look forward to more chapters and seeing how the family develops. Thank you for sharing your writing!

I have been so wrapped up in the current drama between Wade and Matt, that I forgot how Matt was when we first met him. I have been re-reading through the series and I am just now once again reading Bloodline. I think it is important to remember in the current context how we once felt about Matt, and more importantly how he once felt about the other members of the family. I am going to carefully evaluate things as I move forward through time to the present. I think when I get back to the "current" day story line that I will be much more likely to understand better what is happening inside Matt's head. Right now in the present, I am with Wade and his feeling of betrayal. But I am also in the past struggling with Matt as he tries to understand himself and he asks himself and those in the family that he trusts f it is possible that he can have an all consuming love with just one person. Mark is a wonderful author, the story is supremely well-crafted, full of nuance and emotion. I think we need to act a little like JP now as we watch what is happening: feel deeply inside, maintain a calm outside, and hope that the family comes out stronger in the end.
