  1. Thanks!!!
  2. Back at Marcus’ apartment, the pristinely made bed called out to Andy and reminded him of all the scintillating experiences Marcus had introduced him to. Andy blinked as the memories sent a blush across his cheeks and ignited a roiling heat in the pit of his stomach. “Here.” Marcus handed Andy a tumbler with amber liquid. Their hands brushed, and the contact sent tendrils of fire up Andy’s arm and across his body. They stood close together in the middle of the apartment, close enough
  3. Aw, thanks!! Those are such kind words because I really love telling stories that are a little controversial
  4. You're totally right, Tony. Being gay and being a part of the RC Church are certainly not mutually exclusive. And people choose to be celibate or choose to switch denominations or choose to alter the way they express their faith for a whole bunch of reasons. And again, you're right that those decisions are highly personal and should be made with much care and consideration. Thanks for the encouraging words! I'm glad you're enjoying the story!
  5. Oooo.... discussion!! Is Stephen being nosy? Or is he being protective? I'd say probably a little bit of both. He also definitely knows how to speak his mind and doesn't sugarcoat things. That can come across kind of harsh for someone more sensitive like Andy.
  6. Ugh, sorry about the short chapters!!! Hope it keeps you coming back, though
  7. I'm so glad you like Marcus, he's pretty great, isn't he?
  8. Such a hard decision to make and you're right, he's not quite ready for that. But he'll get there!
  9. Agreed. Andy definitely need to talk it out with John!! Thanks!
  10. Yes, it certainly will. And I love the way you frame it. Life's goal vs. heart's desire. For many of us, those aren't the same things, unfortunately.
  11. He's on quite a difficult journey and it'll take a lot for him to finally be able to see with perspective!
  12. Agreed! Anchor is a great way to describe Marcus!
  13. Thanks so much!!
  14. Aw, thanks!!
  15. Andy found himself just inside the entrance of Ritz with a deep sense of déjà vu. He couldn’t help but compare the difference between tonight and just a week ago; the deafening music and press of sweaty men still shocked his senses in the most uncomfortable way, but Andy easily overlooked it this time in his eagerness to see Marcus again. It didn’t take long for Andy to find him. Marcus stood by the bar, close to where they’d met that first night. Andy’s gaze lingered on Marcus’ unruly cur
  16. Scorching!!
  17. *blushes* thanks so much!!
  18. Thank you!!!
  19. Sorry you were late to work!!! (not sorry at all )
  20. *waves fan*
  21. Andy opened his eyes, fully awake with no lingering tiredness or wishing he could turn over and fall back asleep. He couldn’t remember the last time he slept so well or felt so rested. Then he realized why. He was using Marcus as a pillow—head on Marcus’ shoulder, arms and legs wrapped around Marcus as if he was afraid the other man would run away while he slept. Marcus was still snoring softly, curls in disarray and falling all over the place in a giant mop. Andy brushed the s
  22. Gah! Thanks everyone for the wonderful comments!! And the sequel focuses primarily on Erik's journey and how he finds his way to where Ryan is
  23. Thanks for the critique, @Wicked Witch!! *squee!!* And rest assured, the sequel is coming. I've been working on it the past couple of weeks and it's coming along!
  24. “I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you since that first night,” Andy confessed. Marcus brought his hand up to hold Andy’s as he turned his face into Andy’s palm. “Please, Marcus,” Andy whispered, eyes wide and uncertain, but desperately wanting something that Marcus knew he could give. “I... Please...” Marcus groaned as his hard-fought self-control slipped. He leaned forward, reached behind Andy’s head and captured his lips with his own. It was a hard, bruising kiss, a
