Title: Chapter 15: Chapter 15

This is still a great story. Dont be discouraged by some of the negatice reviews. I do agree with some of the sentiments. Its time for Kiesha to either grows some lady balls and be honest with herself and Jason. If his status in life is more intimidating than her love for him then she needs to cut all ties and move on with someone "safe" enough for her.In the meantime Jason needs to let his testicles drop and man up. Which is more important? Kiesha or his inheiritance and status. Either way both of them need to stop pussyfooting around. Something needs to happen and someone need to decide if love is worth it because this going around each other is getting annoying and played out.

Title: Chapter 1: Cast Pictures

I know a lot of folks are pissed with Allegra, but I just feel Chris ambushed her with his feelings. Yeah she didn't handle it in the most tactful way, but I don't think either one of them were ready for love. She still had to deal with the death of her husband and move on while he had daddy issues and self-worth issues. He came across too desperate for love and acceptance. Sure they became friends but they never truly opened up to each other. He never helped him get over her husband and She never helped him find his backbone and sense of self. That bad break up was exactly what both of them needed. 



Author's Response:

I agree with you. Chris and Allegra weren't supposed to get together then. They both had issues that they needed to be solved in order to be truly happy together. Now Chris is okay and Allegra is on her way to full recovery. :D

Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Abandoned

I'm prolly one of the few who's on Allegra's side. Can this sista catch a break? Does she have anyone on her side or who has her back? I get that Chris was devasted by her lack of response but can't she eb allowed to mourn the DEATH of her husband. Everyone has Chris's back and spitting venom about Allegra, but who is gonna stand up for her. She lost a husband. Getting over that and moving on is hard, let alone dealing with intense feeling for someone new. Can someone be understanding of what she is feeling? Can Chris stop and take a moment to feel her pain and understand what she is going through. Its all about him and his feelings and his pain and his struggle and no one gives a damn about Allegra. Not even him. Chris needs to get his head out his ass and at least pretend to get to know why Allegra is scared and ran away. Now she has to chase his ass all over town apologizing for being legitmately scared. She has no friends while everyone wants to rip into her for hurting Chris who only have shitty breakup before her. She has a dead husband but somehow a cheating girlfriend trumps that kinda of pain. 

 

Alright enough of my rant. I love you story I just want at least one person to have Allegra's back and understand her fear without regards to Chris's feeling.



Author's Response:

Giselle has her back. I'm happy that I finally gained someone else's perspective on the matter. You're probably the only one that doesn't hate Allegra right now. It's a bit hard for me to understand her as I am inside Chris' head, but thanks for illuminating me on the issue. Chris and Allegra still have to learn a lot from each other. That's why they can't be together right now.

Gavin invited a snake into his life named Tina. He better be weary of ever being alone in a room with her. I hope he doesn't allow Tina to hurt Nyla through him. I understand his impatience to an extent but I hope he doesn't turn to Tina because he can't wait. It a new relationship. 

I hope Nyla gets stronger and more sure of herself. She deserves to be loved and Greg would want her to move on. She needs to realize that there is more than enough room in her heart to love Gavin and have children.

Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Something

Love the background info, hate that she's weak when it comes to Tyler. However, I know it's hard to walkway. She needs to really get away and clear her from being dickmatized by Tyler. As long as she is dickmatized she won't be able to think straight when it comes to Tyler and really evaluate what she wants and what's best for her.



Author's Response:

I hate it too but I can understand it.

I did not know what dickmatize meant before your review, so I thank you for giving me a new expression. Had to go and look it up on the Urban Dictionary, although I suspected what it meant. I guess Tyler can give it good. LOL. However, all this might be irrelevant to her when Tyler does his bullshit.

Title: Roxie and Griffin: Ever After

All I have to say to Roxie is "closed mouths don't get fed". 



Author's Response:

So true indeed ;) Thanks!

Reviewer: Eclectic Charms Signed starstarstarstarstar

Title: Roxie and Griffin: Ever After

Is someone going to be an adult in this relationship? I can't even root for them sometimes. The level of naivety and passiveness is killing me. She threatens to kick some thugs ass when she first meets Griffin, does low key porn on the internet, played roller derby with beastly women and brave talking to her dad that she avoids to save Griffin's career yet she can't open her dang mouth to get what she wants from Griffin or tell shady ass folks to kiss her grits? It makes me scream. How did she regress so far back to some scared little girl?

Don't get me started on Griffin with his gullible behind. Are you sure he isn't Jethro from the Beverly hillbillies? He darn near sounds like him. I thought he was college educated or was he one of those student athletes that were more athlete than student? I know he's a rookie but where is his common sense? Did he forget about games folks play when you're a star player? Did he forget about that crazy trick that tried to get between him and Roxie? Hell, did he forget about shady point shaving scandal that Roxie had to save him from? I know the stage changed from college to pros but bullshit is still bullshit and the game is still the same. Take the blinders off Griff. 

whew... Got that of my chest. I love this couple but man are they on some high school level love. The had better sense in college. Can't wait for the shit to hit the fan. Whose going to grow some balls first?

Title: Roxie and Griffin: Ever After

Finally!!! I'm still having a hard time with Griffin thinking being away from Roxie as long as he has been is okay. Even Lebron gets time with his family. Until Roxie develops a backbone and speaks up, I'm done with her. Since getting to Miami she has allowed herself to become a doormat. It didn't have to get this bad if she had said something when it first bothered her. However from day one in Miami she become Griffin's lapdog. All the respect I had for her in the first story, gone before Rich even came in the picture. I understand the crap she's dealing with is hard but she didn't even try. Just fell apart. Why did she crumble so easily? Griffin is a dumb jock from Hicksville now. Lost any type of common sense to see bs for what it is. How many times does Rich have to piss on Roxie and your relationship before you cut him loose? How many bad feelings do you ignore? How many sly comments do you need to hear before you really listen? Hell, why aren't trying find time to spend with Roxie until now?

Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3

You wrote that this story is supposed to make us laugh and for it to not be taken seriously. There is nothing funny about Blake's action with his friends and around Renee while he left his GIRLFRIEND with his atrocious nephews. I could laugh if Blake wasn't her boyfriend, but he is and he left with 3 teenage boys he knows has issues, just to go to the party of some girl his girlfriend don't trust and he's feeling butterflies over. Not cool or funny. I digress. It's still a good story if it can make me feel invested in what happened to Minerva.

Title: Chapter 1: Characters

The problem with Jourdan in a nutshell and I think many of the reviewers may agree is the you have given Jourdan no personality. Who is this girl with unrealistic healing abilities, unjustified hatred for Neymar, superhuman soccer talents, who gave her virginty like it was a dirty tissue? Who is this poor little token black girl with a rich friend? Am I being impatient for you to give her back story? Your explanation of she's 19 means nothing unless we the readers know who she is? What is motivating her silly decisions besides her age? Was she heartbroken by a guy like Neymar and that's why she despises him? Is she coming from an unstable childhood so she craves the stability she thinks she'll get from David? Without knowing this, she just seems like a silly b!tchy groupie. You made Jourdan perfectly stupid. She's everything a guy like but no substance. I must admit I take issue with her being super great at soccer after dealing with a spinal injury that's only because I am an ex-athlete turned physical therapist. It just must makes her too much of everything but a whole lot of nothing.

 

In the end, I must you have a good story going. Just give Jourdan a little personality and develop her character so when can cheer for her growth.



Author's Response:

I believe that I actually did give Jourdan a personality. She's sarcastic and witty and I did give her a back story. She came from a poor family and was homeless at a young age which makes her insecure when it comes to men like Neymar. She wants to be with David because he is safe and secure. I didn't give Jourdan super human soccer skills, the only reason why she beat Neymar in the beginning is because he underestimated her. Jourdan is just a good defender. I've played soccer my whole life so take my word when I say that it's not hard to shine as a defender.  Thanks for the honest review, the information I just listed though was in the story. Specifically the last two or three chapters.

Title: Chapter 22: Bittersweet Past

Something about the sitting on the lap of Rusty is not sitting right with me. I hope it means nothing, but personal experience with family and their secrets and still being allowed around family makes me uneasy. I hope I’m far off track. Either way. I love this story and I’m rooting for Shug and Miles.
