    Chapter 3

    What a delightful young ghost! Alfie and Robert are meant to meet and perhaps both will find the peace they need theough the encounter. Let’s see.

    Chapter 2

    We meet the “trench rat” and he is handsome young ghost. As @drpaladin suggests, he may well be unaware that he is dead. I wonder who Patrick is? 🤔

    Chapter 1

    I’m late to this story but looking forward to the rest of the tale. I’ve not read an @lomax61 story I haven’t enjoyed, so this is sure to be a cracker.
  5. Wooohooo! We have a forest fire!🔥 I wonder if they are reshaping the past or still in learning mode?
  6. They make have to embark on a deforestation exercise if they are to be victorious. Where are fire magicians when you need them?
  7. Theo is a feisty little pup for sure and hasn’t changed much as an adult. I can’t be called Theo! I’ve been waylaid and comeback late to the story, but I’m still of the opinion that Vee and Jack won’t be able to change the past, but perhaps, they can save the future by understanding the past.
  8. Indian Summer is a quick read that completely turns the table on Joe - the sexy hero. But the change is exactly what Joe needs. A hot little number.

  9. That was 🔥 . Joe the sexy silver fox and Dylan the horny stud . A fun read.
  10. Well one surprise might lead to another for Joe. Let’s see what Dylan has in store.
  11. Ash and Taggert make a good team - The Tag Team. This seems to be a high functioning group of men who get on well together. Makes for a good working environment.
  12. Thinking exactly the same. I would have expected Taggert to wait for the others to finish then shower alone. So his shower behaviour was unexpected.

    New Hands

    An excellent start and the best genre of all- cowboys!
  14. The Quiet Between Them is a story of love set in Florence as the Renaissance is beginning. Under attack in various ways, the love between Matteo and Gianluca is eventually allowed to find its place and flourish. A great read.

    A brilliant story, well told. Thank you!

    Chapter 38

    I don’t have an issue with a rogue friar, however, he needs to be in or out. How Benedetto treated Gianluca was shocking so it will be interesting to see if he is given the same opportunity to “reflect”. But as Matteo points out, unless the underlying issues are addressed, another will come in the place of Benedetto.

    Chapter 37

    Which is exactly what he is saying - we enslave ourselves to institutions for the security they provide at the cost of freedom. He is, in fact, doing nothing different to the bishops, to Lorenzo or anyone else in power, who all wrap themselves in the authority of institution to influence the minds and choices of people, very often for the greater benefit of the few.

    Chapter 37

    The silly thing is that Benedetto is not wrong. We do not need a church, a bishop or a pope to preach the Gospel and he is preaching a kind of liberation theology which centuries later ran like wildfire across South and Central America. What I find disturbing about holiness and many others who preach absolute freedom in whatever form they choose to preach it - be it religious, social or political - is that this ultimately means “the freedom I choose to allow you”. Benedetto would likely not remain an impartial provider of the word but take on the power given him by obedient followers.

    Chapter 36

    The machine is now in motion and Benedetto will reap the wind that is coming. Now in that crowd somewhere could there be a young Savanarola?
  20. Doha

    Chapter 35

    Benedetto’s words are vague enough to defend yet explicit enough to be incendiary. The question is how will the abbots respond and what impact will that have on the people of Florence.
  21. Joe is super hot and super cool at the same time. As at @akascrubber suggests, Dylan is probably going to be the issue rather than Diane. Unless Dylan and Luca are already an item.
  22. Doha

    Chapter 33

    Benedetto has sparked off a fibre. Will the combined prudence of the city and its leaders be enough to avoid violence,
  23. Doha

    Chapter 31

    Well the motion has begun and the cogs are grinding.
  24. Doha

    Chapter 30

    Let’s see how Florence take this. We already know Fra Bernadetto will call it a structural sin seeking stability. I’m looking forward to seeing the face off.

    Palomar

    Life is getting interesting for George and he is going to enjoy the challenge of leading a crew of sailors again. He and Capt Palomar are going to have a crazy, sexy relationship once the get past dancing around one another.
