I'm not usually into thriller or sci-fi stories but this one captured my attention from the beginning and I'm so glad I stuck with it and enjoyed it, truly. Walter put Greg in a weird situation, and it'll be interesting to see how he juggles knowing what he does and seeing how much Josh has already become part of the family. I don't think I could ever conceptualize, let alone write a story like this, but it was fascinating. Thank you @Jeff Burton and like many others, I eagerly await book 2.

YES!!! I need MORE! Please oh great scribe @Krista !!! I have looked forward to and enjoyed every chapter, and this one was icing on the cake! I'm glad Joel's sperm donor gave him the money from his account and to no one's shock, asshole Westley just had to make a scene leaving the ranch. I was relieved to see Joel stand up for himself with Celia's "mother" and I teared up when Celia finally learned just how Trace saved Joel's life in more ways than one that night on the bridge. Cody's reappearance was a welcome sight to see but his time with Joel was rushed and felt sad. I knew Gavin had to have known about Davin and figured he had figured Javin out. I wasn't surprised to hear Lorianne's admission that she knew about Joel and although it seemed weird when i read it, Roy & Joel both being new and being a couple wasn't far-fetched to imagine. It brought tears to my eyes hearing both Celia and Trace not only stand up for Joel but also embrace him as their son just as it did to hear Colt refer to him as his adopted brother. I absolutely love the Connelley parents - true MVPs for Joel, the twins, and Cody. I was surprised Joel didn't get some elaborate gift though. I could babble on for days about how much I loved this story, but I'll save some thoughts for the review. Thank you again Krista for sharing this wonderful story.

Such sadness but I can feel the love they had for each other. Beautiful chapter!

Absolutely superb! 10/10 no notes! The sexiest, hottest scene I've read in a long time. How was Hudson walking? The later part in the "trophy room" and the screening room were magical in their own ways. Just such a sizzling chapter! Thanks!

Wow, that was so intense! I was on edge the whole time and realized I held my breath while waiting for Josh/Caleb to access Cerebrus. Thank you for another masterful chapter in an absolutely riveting book!

Intense and powerful chapter! Great way to start 2026!

Jody had an educational summer for sure... Mom knows or at least suspects!

What a sizzling build-up! I thought Liam was gonna fuck him right there on the island. Damn, I can't wait for the deed. I actually thought there'd be an NDA to be signed first but maybe Liam trusts Hudson with that already.

Jody has excellent taste in his conquests!

Great chapter as always @Krista ! But what is this horror I'm reading about their only being one chapter left?! That can't possibly be true?! I'm unsure if I can live without lots more Javin!!! I don't think Jax is done with Joel though and Davin could've warned Joel about him sitting at the "gay table" although it seemed like Joel subconsciously or not had already discovered that.

Quite the chapter! Full of moodiness and two guys trying to take measure of the other. The dance sequence was hypnotic. The last part was perhaps my favorite!

What a great intro chapter!

Sweet of Jody to mentor Billy on bottoming and helping him discover himself! Sounds like a great spring semester for Jody!

Sounds like Jody is in for one hell of a satisfying season with endless guys to please! Seems with his love of bottoming, he'd be a fool to not take advantage of the team's willingness to keep him supplied with a steady amount of cum and cocks!

Coach definitely gave Jody a thorough workout! Sizzling chapter!

Poor Liam is freaking out, and I don't blame him - the tendencies and little quirks Adrian has are freaky for sure.

Great chapter!

Kris has a big, kind heart and obviously loves Dean or he wouldn't have given him another chance. I'm proud of Dean for finally having the courage to leave the small town, taking a chance on Kris loving him enough to allow him back in, and getting his anger in check, in addition to working hard towards finally being his own boss. Kris's mom is a central part of their lives, and it seems as though she's just as proud of Dean as Kris. Good for Kris on completing his long project. Loved this chapter @ChromedOutCortex!

Jody is quickly becoming a valued part of the team! Coach Stan has big plans for him 😜

Jody handled that conversation well and Sandy was in agreement, so a win-win!

JAVIN, JAVIN, JAVIN! Glad to see our favorite boys get started on some action! It was awkward and steamy and perfect! Thank you and Merry Christmas @Krista and everyone!

A beautiful last chapter of a memorable, well-written story, full of life's ups and downs. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and would love to devour more culinary fiction/romance offerings! Well done!

I kinda figured Dean would react that way but true - Kris could've immediately blurted out - "move with me" or "I want you to come too" but it seemed like his interactions with Ethan left him disheveled and confused too.

What a beautiful, sweet Christmas story!

Great chapter!
