Thank you, Goodie. The convo for the brothers was very fun to write, and Duncan and Adam was something I wanted from the start. They grew up together, stayed friends and in contact, even with Adam in Boston, and they were destined to be together by the powers that be. Just life has some interesting twists that they had to go through. Tibs, I like as a character. He can be bad, has been for a long time, but he's on the path of redemption, one I hope he succeeds at.
Thank you again, Goodie, for reading and for the comment. This was a hard chapter to write, because I knew DCF would be taking Rob away. But you are right, Adam is on the right side of the law in this, and DCF has to investigate the accusation, so it's a crappy situation all around. I can't wait to see what you say for the next two chapters.
Goodie, thank you for reading, commenting, and for your insight and opinions on the chapters. I've enjoyed reading each one. Yeah, the next three chapters are going to be a ride to remember.
Thank you, Goodie! That sting that Adam feels because of his brother, I've felt due to my sister. I haven't spoken to her going on 8 years. As for the grandparents, grief can make you do stupid stuff.
Thank you, Goodie! The Tampa Chronicles has been one of my favorites to write, and relationships, like Adam and Robert is kinda like how I would have loved to have had with my own father.
Thank you, Goodie, for reading and for the comment. Sadly I know that sting of being rejected by family. I lost half my family when I came out, and it still hurts thinking back on it. I hope you enjoy the next two stories in the series.
You all know I've not talked to my sister in over 7 years. She's had four kids, two boys and two girls, from two different dads. All of them have been taken away from her, and her parental rights have been terminated. If she has any more kids, she looses them automatically, per the courts. Sometimes, people shouldn't have kids, and the best thing for them is removal from toxic parents.
No, not for me. I had planned to reread the series when I saw you were working on book 3. This is just a good way to get reacquainted with the characters.
Thank you very much for the warning, and it will be good for me too. I had decided to reread the first two books, and this way, I can read the first one again as you post the revisions.
Good Night, everyone. I hope everyone has been having a safe and restful night. Sleep is not coming easy for me...
The Moon is a friend for the lonesome to talk to - Carl Sandburg
I though the chapter was very good. I think that N'than has a siren like quality to him, that makes people attracted to him quickly. I like his attitude of "I need to do this for me." Realistic and very believable.
Harry is taking this pretty hard, but I'm glad to see that Alex showed up there at the end. Can't wait till the next chapter and their talk!
Excellent chapter.
