You were soooooo helpful! Thank you, thank you!!!!! See you soon, my friend 😁

Yay! Thanks for reading. And life will get much harder for Kayden once Trent falls for him. Poor little baby!! I sooooo like your idea of creepy Jacob. I'm gonna run with it. Thanks for the inspiration 😅 I feel BAD for Ian!!! I feel bad for everyone! But I'm kinda enjoying their discomfort tbh. More to come! Lol

“Stop up there.” Audrey waved a finger. “No! Keep going! Go past our street.” “Shit! Alright!” Mitch shouted and the Hummer drifted to a stop a block from Elmdale Plaza. BEEEEEEEEEEEEP Kayden gasped as a minivan blasted around them. “Fucker,” Mitch hissed. “You need to pull over. You stopped in the middle of the street!” Audrey complained as the van stopped short at the light several yards down. It made a left on red. Mitch snorted. “What a dick.” Kayden presse

I am pretty nervous about all the races. Idk what I was thinking. Sorry to the Koreans and black america, I guess. No offence Omg 😫

Yay! Yea, I agree and I'm just getting started!!! See ya soon!

Lol, now I've gotta make him less of a dick! Piece of cake

Glad someone else remembered! I just felt like the original dragged a little. Trying to focus more on scene. I'd love to hear any opinions you have. Trent/Torrin from the original was a rapist and I had no idea how to redeem him. So the rape tag, isn't for Trent

I absolutely love you right now @Wesley8890 I was getting really nervous this was a total dud maybe it is, but I'm going to keep going. Your last comment about Jacob has me rethinking the ending. Yay!!! Thank you! Sadly, you are my beta reader. I'm doing this all on my own as usual

Lol! Yea! I spent a lot of time working up to a kiss the first time. i don't really think he'd wait thou Poor Ivy's insecure. Trent's too selfish to care unfortunately. Seems like a lot of bad symptoms to me. Wonder how she'll react after getting kicked out of the house AND dumped??

Sunlight streamed through the blinds. Trent had forgotten to pull the drapes again. He rolled over with a moan and threw an arm over his face. He fell back asleep. *** When Trent opened his eyes again, Vince stood in the door, eating a sandwich. Trent sat up with a groan and clutched his head. “Shit…” His skull ached and he couldn’t remember crawling into bed last night, but he had vague memories of drinking with Lucas on the couch in front of the TV. He was in a black pair o

I'm dumping these chapters off like I'm ashamed. I had a lot of fun writing Trent's perspective and didn't stop until he and Kayden meet up in math class again. LOL! Idk if anyone will make it that far, but the end was a total surprise for me I should really listen to you about the length. I do wish I could get more readers, but I'll take what I can get for now. I posted on wattpad as well and DID split this into four chapter, but it looks weird to me, having 4 chapters of the same perspective. I thought about blending this chapter and the next. so short chapters from both perspectives. That could be a possibility when it's finished and I think that would be my best route. Every bit of advice I've been ignoring has been correct, so when I DO attempt to tackle the length, I'll probably be very satisfied. The last book I submitted to the publisher was 300 pages and there are only 6 chapters, so...... Jesus, I was so worried the first chapter was 80 pgs, but I just went with it. Ok! I'm rambling.

I picked out the one flaw and had a conniption. I feel Kayden would probably react the same. We have dads that are similar. I suppose this isn't a happy story, but a realistic one. I hear what your saying about length. I've been having *a lot* of fun splitting my sagas into BOOKS. I mentioned above I had no word limit in mind for this story and didn't know how long it would be and I honestly don't. I just don't like limits or rules. That isn't me. I have goals for each scene and the characters interact in as realistic of a way as I can get it. I've cut out so much "Telling" from my stuff, I was afraid I'd lose so much content, but nope. I'm putting it in scene instead. I'll keep that in mind going forward, but TBH I'm not focusing on Word limits with this one. I'm trying so so hard to get away from my crutches, the excessive CURSING. And trying to make Trent different from my other led, which I'm working on for the publisher. Also, I'm aware I did very poor research with Stanford. Not happy with the descriptions, but I STRUGGLE with being flowery. Description is another thing I'm TRYING to work on. I appreciate you stopped by. I am a tad concerned the next one is 18K! But, even MORE characters were introduced. I had a lot of goals with the next one. I did my ABSOLUTE best. I'm in a bit of a panic now, but I asked for this

Next one's longer... Sigh I failed you, drpaladin!!! 😫😫😫😫😫

I don't want to spoil too much, but his weakness is his MAIN flaw. He'll be working on that I posted the second chapter, but we have to wait for moderation I'll admit, it may take some time to get there. I'd planned character arcs for almost every character. All of Kayden's family included, mom, sis, bro, and dad. None of them are happy. I wasn't planning on leaving it that way. These first two chapters I felt were sorta character studies. I wasn't planning on having Jacob enter the story at all, but he popped into the conversation very soon into the story so I went with it. On the surface, he's the better choice, but I'm not sure he would help Kayden grow as much as Trent will. Jacob wants to coddle and keep him safe. Trent wants to push and test the limits. I don't know how long this will be, but it's been consuming my life the past month. Glad to share. Hope you will return pt 2! Thanks a lot for commenting. I appreciate it

It was mid-October, a couple days after midterms, and Kayden Lee sat at the front of a small lecture hall in the outer quad. The back wall was lined with plate glass windows that looked out at the math corner, an open, sun speckled courtyard paved with warm red tiles and dotted with trees. It was a class of forty and the narrow room had long wooden tables against the right wall facing the teacher’s desk and the whiteboard. Kayden’s head was down, and his dark fringe hung over his large, del

Trent’s stepdad is Chase Hudson, critically acclaimed film director and producer. He’s rich and good-looking, but he’s got issues with control and he feels like he’s totally losing it when he learns he’s on academic probation. He needs a tutor, fast. Kayden’s used to following the rules. He's premed, like his brother, but his gentle nature draws him to teaching. When Trent approaches him about tutoring, he agrees at once as this is his only chance to get close to his incredibly attractive classmate. They soon realize how much Trent likes to dominate his little teacher and how much Kayden likes to submit to him.

You are correct, it's pretty hard to get to know someone when you don't talk to them. All those stories sound so magical 😄 The way you talk about them is enchanting. I've definitely heard of your Drop-in center... I'm super excited to be invited! I'll try not to be too shy... I have a feeling you and your Dom have a lot of knowledge to pass along!

Omg I'm sorry!!!!!!! I didn't know that's what you thought!!! You're absolutely right. Fanfiction is a totally different world than this one. Hi! I'm Caitlyn! I come from Harry Potter Fandom I loooove a dark drama. Magic and spaceships aren't necessary. I deal in the emotions department I got into Gay fiction because the sex was HOT and I was able to find more than one author that wrote deep, engaging characters with interesting stories to tell...

Are you a published author??? You really are a master of your craft... I know you're right, I've gotten better by reading... I think that's what I meant to say in my last comment... It's been so long since I've read anyone else's work, I've been so absorbed with the stresses of life and also, absorbed with my own writing. I just didn't have the time to read. But I know enough about writing now to see the skill you have. It took me a while to read this short chapter because I was studying it so intently. This reminded me of college writing, my professor made us read short stories and a novel or two, in the course of a semester and in class we'd discuss what we thought was good about the writing. This is so much more fun though because for once, I get to read something that's in the M/M category Do you know how embarrassed I was bringing in my M/M romance to college writing???? I did it though because it was what I wanted to write about most... Idk if its weird for a girl to like M/M but whatever, I'm going with it. Thanks for replying and for being so encouraging. That means a lot to me and I will be reading this very thoroughly. But... my break from the baby is over now Daddy's off to work.

I feel kind of bad... I've never read anything like this before. The relationship between Don and Louis is so very real and tangible. You paint such vivid pictures with your writing!!! This puts all my little slash fiction to shame. This is real romance. The situation is so crushingly sad and because I was standing right there next to Louis, I swear I could feel his mental anguish. The conversation Loius has with Rena made me cry, too. Omg!!!! He doesn't want to lie to Don, but Rena is like 'just wait for him to be strong enough first!!!' OMG I WAS TEARING UP SO BAD!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 How did you make me care about these characters so quickly?! You are so talented! Sorry 😂 its been a while since I've read anything besides my own crap. This was such a pleasant surprise. Fiction with the feels!!!

I think this is the most beautiful opening line I have ever read. I can't wait to read this... 😍

Gurlmance. GURL! Thank you!!!! I like it... you just coined a new term you flipping genius Gurlmance!!!!!

OMG! That was the smoothest, dirtiest joke over ever heard! Well played 🤣🤣🤣🤣

That's a hella interesting perspective on love... And you just disproved everything I just thought I knew!!! They way you put it... unrequited love actually sounds powerful and almost sweet in a way... Shit, maybe I should look into that emotion some more. I love powerful emotions.

I think... I know what you mean Zipping my silly little lips
