A an elevator drop with no floor.

The back rooms had it all on display.

By the 90’s most were closed down in the lower east side. Places like The Cock were constantly raided. Then clubs were strictly regulated.

Apple used that song. Total Jackson 5 vibe. Like it! 😊

That’s the way I read that moment as well.

Cancer is a hard thing to grasp. I can say that as a patient in 2006. As well as watching family suffer through it. They are giving Cody a gift, and something to fight for. I swear I’m starting to speak Kasey. Bella better watch her cat. Before it becomes Mongolian beef...LOL! No matter how bad things get... it’s your support that gets you through. No matter if blood, or created family.

I thought Eli would be more the moaner or screamer... LOL!

The bond is strong and will not be denied. Their unity is built on love and trust. The way they handled Nolan shows that. Delicate encouragement, so not to rattle him. Like I said a few chapters ago... Jani is one skilled ringmaster. 🎪🎇🎆🎇

Sixteen and pregnant!!! Why is it always the bleachers? What ever happened to Health class? They tell you pulling out is ineffective... 🙄 Poor Cameron. He is so fearful. Kevin doesn’t realize how obvious he is. I’m wondering if parents already have a clue.

Fake news really exists?

Oli has grown because of Ryder. He is finding his voice. He is becoming more confident. Ryder is showing Oli that being different is his gift. The trip is something for Oli to dream bigger than Jersey. His brothers relationship with Ryder shows him a healthy gay partnership.

I disagree. Although, I see how you think that. The beginning interactions of a Dom and sub is like a dance. Those personalities search each other. They connect through verbal, visual and physical cues. Chris has shown he is drawn to Greg. Greg has asked if he could be forgiven. He gave Chris control there. He’s attempting to put them equal again. A Dom is a nurturer in nature. Chris said he felt better when not having to do 10 things at once after yielding household control to Greg. That put Chris first. It released him of pressure and anxiety. It’s a gift to make your partners life easier, by making the tough decisions. I do agree that he was not a nice person and was initially controlling by threats and intimidation. That’s why I said something a few chapters back before some changes. Dom/sub have no relation to Master/slave.

Great chapter. Chris is understanding his role in this partnership. The act of submission is not giving up control. It’s trusting your partner to know what you need. Bringing peace and contentment. As a couple and individually.

Great chapter Ace. I think Hidden is in a positive enough place to take on Riley. That’s why he’s talking to you. Ryder is finding the light. Riley wants the same. 😀

Thanks renee. Always nice to see a wrap up on all the things that happened. Anyone who hasn’t read March’s Classic story must do so... one of the best on GA. Very witty dialogue.

Wow! Lily and Cody.. I get why Blu is where he’s at. Cancer Sucks! Watching it happen to your mother, or a child is heart wrenching. Lincoln is showing great maturity. Wanting Cody to be part of the family. Quite selfless for that age. Great chapter. Even with the solemn tone.

Extremely powerful. Evokes so many emotions. Hard to comprehend the cruelty found in humanity.

I was teasing Rob. Thought tone showed that. Didn’t mean to upset you.

Phillip is lost. His children were kidnapped by his ex-wife when she learned he was gay. He hasn’t been able to move forward in six years. Vance enters the picture and things become clear. Events happen that make a new relationship tough. Through strength, love and family... Phillip and Vance manage to pull through. Another wonderful story by renee. She created realistic characters and emotions. While tackling some tough subjects. A definite must read!

Tom Clancy was a wonderful writer. His writing submersed you in the world you were reading. The ones not written by him are lacking something. Just not quite the same. Hard to carry on someone else’s vision. Same with Stieg Larsson. Great choice Myr.

Stop while you’re not totally sinking in shit.

Thanks Tim. I have read through. Anders let me know things were changing.

Great chapter. It’s great to see Ryder on the mend. The airport was funny. That was a Jersey family moment. Each one bitching and moaning. Hey Ryder, Essex or Teterboro?

Chocolate ex-lax, the oldest prank in the book. Long war ahead. Just call Kasy Lil Warbucks. That lil rugrat is rollin in the dough. with that whole family blowing up, must have smelt pleasant. 💩

Interesting cast of characters to make an alliance. Will it protect the underworld? Do they all want to protect it? What’s in it for each to do so?
