I love these two.

The interaction betwenn Cameron and Tavin is so funny.  I love his line about Prince and Rasberry Beret when he was talking about the tree.  You have done a wonderful job on building that relationship.

I love Tavin's reaction to what her men did for her and Janae.

OMG!  I really wanted her to do something the the tricky trio.  Not, anything that would land her in jail, but they needed the learn that somethings you just don't do.  Even though is was a rough way to find out , after what she saw between Jeremy and Damon she should be grateful and tested.

OMG!!!!! Even with the warning, Meagan still got me.  I would like to know her back story just to see how she got to be that disgusting and nutty at the same time.  And what of Isa's father wanting her.  I hope that was a dilusion, just like the one that told her Isa would want to lick her nasty fingers.

I like that Isa is so possessive and protective of Tamesha.  I just hope Jeremy stays alive and healthy because too many people heard Isa threaten to kill him several times. Nice chapter.

Author's Response: Sad to say Jeremy will remain heathy.

Free Nikki!!!!!  When this wonderful story started my favorite character was Sunny.  I wanted her to be happy because she was such a loving and sweet girl who did all she could for everyone.  She still is, but it is Nikki I have come to have the most sympathy and love for. He is the most scarred and the most humbled in this whole story. 

Circumstances in his life caused him to  become who he is.  Starting with his father who should have been the man to teach and shape his son into some one good or even normal.  What he got from his  biological father was lies and dislike. His mother was too hard to give her son what he needed so he went to a gang that was never the friends  he thought.  They betrayed him just to get back at his father.  He meets someone who means well.  The man treats him like a son, but he has to teach him to be ruthless and brutal in order to survive.  That survival turns into his business, but where was the choice really. 

I see that blackness in him as all the hurt, anger and betrayal that a very young man had to push down and not deal with in order to make it.  So when I say free Nikki,  I mean let him get rid of it all.   Free his spirit so that even if Sunny walks away the blackness has no hold anymore.

As much as I want them to be together, I really would like to see Nikki find peace.  Let him find a way to release it on his own.  Not just when Sunny is near.  Otherwise it will always be around and he will never be his total self. 

With that said..........I hope they end up together. This has been a great story and I'm waiting just like everyone else for the finale.  Thanks!

You are such a good writer and this story gets better and better. It was sweet that of all the names the people in his life call him, Nikolai only wants to hear Sunny call him Nikki. 

Finding out that Nikolai was set up by the sons of men his father betrayed was an eye opener.  When he told his father "The man I am is the man you helped make",  I was overjoyed.  The father's meaness, even close to death, had to be dealt with.  It made me feel bad for Nikki though.  Everyone wishes for closure.  Even though I liked the way he did it, I'm sorry  all he got was to tell his father off.   

Onimosity, I was telling my sister about this story and she asked me if this was a movie I had seen and was it on DVD.  I laughed and gave her the name if this sight to read it.   Now I have someone to talk about it with. 

I love these two together. They are just a loving couple who relate so well to each other.  Nikolai is going to have to talk to Sunny soon about his work life.  Something is definately coming with Stanislavsky.  Will Kostya's mother be Sunny's friend or foe? 

Thanks for a good update.  I always love to read about the two of them.

Your story is  very interesting .  You have really developed your characters well.  I even get a good feel for what Sunshine's mother was like.  Great work.

This chapter is really good.  Pop must really have lost is place in the world to think about money before his little girl having to sell herself for him. I feel bad for Sunshine and even worse for poor Sergei because he is falling for her and that can only cause trouble.  Anatoly taking up with Darla, Hmm............trouble!  Can't wait for your update.  Good job!

Your writing is so good.  All the characters are so clear and developed.  I love that Niki made all the efforts for Sunshine.   Her mother really gave her dreams to strive for and I think that is awesome.  Maybe it was having to live life with her father, but Sunshine seems so much more mature and practical than a normal eighteen year old.

As you read the story you sometimes forget her age and just see someone adjusted to the what they feel they have to do and will make the best of it.  Case in point is asking for a time limit so that she does not give up her whole life for a father who sees her as the golden ticket.

The love scene was really hot and sweet at the same time. Leaving it unclear as to who said I am yours was a nice teaser.  I personally think it was Niki.   I really like this story and characters.  Thanks for the update and keep listening to your steel fisted muse.
