Title: Chapter 16: Chapter 15

I think this is a really good story and I will continue reading it but I have the hardest time reading Sasha's scenes.  I know her mother f*cked her up but her level of low self-esteem is just....no words. I don't understand how she can take all that verbal abuse from everyone, including Dmitri.   I know she says she loves him but she needs to start loving herself first which obviously she doesn't...

Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 5

This chapter was REALLY GOOD!!!!  I feel for Sasha...loneliness can be brutal but abandonment can be a beast.  I figured that she was acting this way because of her past.  Perhaps her character can seek some help...therapy?  But I get the feeling that her healing may begin with Dmitri.  About Dmitri...he was brutally honest but really...he knows she was innocent maybe he didn't know she was a virgin but still...he thought one night would be enough? LOL.  The moment he kissed her in Jaelynn's kitchen should have been a clue to him. And yes, I don't think Sasha is ready for sex yet though I know it will eventually get to that point.  I would love to know more about Dmitri...what is his past like? We know he's an ad exec but why is he so averse to serious relationships/commitment?  He's 33 not 23.  I can't wait to find out.

Finally! I've been waiting for this Sasha to come out...keep it up.  Make these suckers beg (Dmitri) to get back in her good graces and and let others like Faye fall to wayside...for good!  Yes, I know guys like Dmitri don't have to beg...but yeah let him sweat a little...nothing good in life is ever easy that easy to get.

Aw and Teagan cares more about her than I thought...she should still lose Faye and Jaelynn though...

Title: Chapter 10: Chapter 9

Ah! @ that cliffhanger! I think it's Dmitri's father.  Whoever it is he's quite angry and don't wish to see them.  I would love to know what caused this rift between he and his father to the point that he was "banned" from returning home (wherever that is...can't wait to find out).  I like what you are doing here...adding a new layer to Dmitri's life...works well with your plot development.  So keep doing what you are doing!  This is a really great story; one of the best that I've read in a long time on this site.

Thank you so much! That means a lot! :-)

Title: Chapter 15: Chapter 14

Good update. Poor Sasha...so used to people calling her names that she doesn't even respond..now I see that it all started during her childhood.  I'm wondering if Dmitri is really freaking out about her saying "I love you."  Surely, he feels something for her...maybe he is afraid too which is understandable since his family treats him like sh*t.

Title: Chapter 8: Chapter 7

I wished she would have told Faye off for once and for all...Jaelynn too. Dina is such a cool chick; I can see that she and Sasha will become close over time.  

Regarding the changes to Chapter 6, I still think it ended sweetly. I love this nurturing side of Dmitri...he's finally giving into emotion for the first time in his life...and the way you wrote him in these last few chapters...I just know he's going to fall...hard...if he hasn't already.



Author's Response:

I'm glad you liked this chapter and the changes from Chapter 6! Thank you for your review!

Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 4

Wow...definitely don't understand why she's friends with someone like Faye.  Sasha could stand to be a bit more assertive too...I don't get why she her friends talk to her that way.



Author's Response:

Don't worry. Her time will come. Thank you for your review!

Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 3

This is really good.  I have to admit that after reading the first chapter, I couldn't understand why Sasha was friends with the three of them.  Teagan seems cool but I have a feeling that as soon as she finds out that Sasha is attracted to Dmitri (he seems to be attracted to her as well) she will cut the friendship off.  Which is what most would do anyway...Sasha is so innocent and shy (I can relate to that) but that low self-esteem is a mutha...I don't know why Dmitri keeps leading Teagan on; I think things will get ugly.  And yes, I'm interested in that Slade character.  I wonder who he's going to be paired with and is Dmitri's friend?



Author's Response:

Sasha;s lack of her own self-worth, makes her just accept her mistreatment as justified and deserving. Hopefully, she will come to her senses and realize how special she is. Thank you for your review!

Title: Chapter 11: Chapter 10

Wow so they are really going to do this? Honestly, I was hoping for their first time to be a bit more romantic at least not with his sister there. Speaking of Nadia...well I was surprised it was her given his language and harsh tone but I don't like her at all.  They come from New England money so I'm not shocked that she acts that way but her comments to Sasha were incredibly rude.  She's already judged Sasha based on her appearance alone.  So she doesn't think Sasha is good enough for her brother?  Hmm...let's see what Dmitri has to say about that...I'm still waiting for Sasha to stand up for herself.



Author's Response:

one thing about Dmitri is that he wants what he wants when he wants it. Since he has never had to wait for someone as long as he has for Sasha, no matter when they finally go through with it,he will make sure she 'enjoys' herself. lol Nadia as you will soon find, has a very similar attitude in regards to class that her father has. They are extremely elitist and Dmitri, being aware of that, wishes to protect Sasha as much as possible. Thank you for your review! More coming soon!

Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 11

Aw, they are too cute together.  Sasha is so brazen. :-)  But the jig is up...his sister already heard you two (one of the reasons I think they should have waited until she went back where she came from especially if they are going to go with the "just a friend" route due to his father for the time being).   Dmitri should just go ahead and admit that she is more than a friend..and Sasha should address her concerns with his sister not liking her to Dmitri but I suppose that is too soon. Nevertheless, she shouldn't take Nadia's snarky comments when Dmitri is not in the room either.



Author's Response:

I agree. Sasha's hesitation stems from her fear that their relationship may end at any moment despite her growing love for him. But, hopefully, she becomes secure and starts to fight back just a little bit more. Thank you for your review!

I like Dominic; Dmitri can be such a hard ass but I love him with Sasha. That love scene was so erotic.

Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4-The Other Side of the Coin

I don't know how I bypassed this story before but it has EVERYTHING to keep me interested in reading it until the end.  I love a little revenge; I love seeing those on their high horse fall to ground and Mark....what can I say?  He's going to have more regrets.  I was a bit surprised that this has the makings of a good old triangle...I suppose that explains the banner.  I like Cameron a great deal and it is going to be VERY INTERESTING to see how everything will play out.  Melody's been in love with Mark forever but I don't think she feels that way now...as she realizes it was only "hero worship." If Mark plans to win her over he definitely has a LOT of WORK to do....not to mention his parents are a rich, dysfunctional mess.  The fact that he thinks Melody was supposed to pine for him for over 10 years was his first mistake. I would love to see Cameron give Mark a run for his money...and I wouldn't mind if Cameron wins Melody's heart.  Afterall, her late husband made her promise not to remove the ring until she finds a man who loves her as much he loved her.  In my eyes, Cameron could be that guy but I don't know what tricks you have up your sleeves so I will make sure to read until the end. Who knows Mark may have some redeeming qualities.

Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3

Oh...I'm SO GLAD you let Acacia lash out at that white chick!  It wasn't too harsh but enough to shut her a** up, lol.  Love it when shy, introverted chicks who avoid conflicts give people a piece of their mind...people get all shocked.  I can't wait to see where this goes...I just read your disclaimer that this is a crime/suspense drama and wow...as I was reading this story I never would have thought it'd go in that direction. But, that makes it all the more interesting as it not going to be the cookie cutter quiet insecure girl meets and ultimately ends up with handsome bad boy and live happily ever.  I take it this story will be told from Acacia's point of view...would love to see what the Russian hottie is thinking.  He's quite mysterious.

Aw, Billy is a good kid.  What's Paris's deal though?  I felt there were clues but then I was confused by her actions...and she doesn't want to give in to Billy Weston. I can understand her hestitations...she wants him but doesn't really want to be with him the way he wants her to..hmm can't wait for the upcoming chapters and impending drama that I'm sure will ensue...

Title: Chance Encounter

Billy is so passionate!  I can't wait until they finally get married.  What a turn of events for Charles...but will Janie admit that he's the father?



Author's Response:

Billy would marry Paris today if he could, but he'll settle for graduation.  As for Janie and Charles, she may not want to admit it with both Charles and his father ganging up on her.  More is coming soon!

Title: Chance Encounter

Okay, well you've managed to make feel a little sad for both Charles and Janie.  It sucks what happened to them at a young age but for some reason I feel a little more saddened by Charles's ordeal.  Perhaps, he should also confront his uncle and tell his father the truth.

About Paris not wanting to get married...I see her point.  If they got married after her graduation things would be tough...but with love/dedication and compromise it could work.  I believe Billy when he says it's not about sex; I think he truly loves the girl.   However, I don't think they are going to be able to keep Billy's promise to Paris's father much longer should they postpone the marriage any longer.

 



Author's Response:

Charles has a lot to think about and Billy Weston isn't on the top of the list.  LOL

Billy wants what Billy wants?  Will he get his way?  Stay tuned!

Title: Chance Encounter

Billy is determined to get married.  The scene with the grandparents wasn't as bad as I thought it would be and at least the two grandmothers are willing to meet Paris before making anymore judgement.  Even though Paris's mother pushed her to get birth control, why do I have the feeling that Billy is still wanting to wait to get married first and that he is still wanting to get married when she graduates in the next few months?  I guess I will see how this all plays out.



Author's Response:

Billy has told Paris that it's not just about the sex.  He is not going to be happy with this AT ALL.

More is coming!
