You write well and this second part was nicely done. The ground rules, the sex that wasn't sex (according to some) and the nice discussion about relationships and what they meant. Most important, both of them now know there is no one else to get in the way, so on with the romance full speed ahead. Oh, there is the Brother, but they'll get past that little problem in short order.
Wow! I really like the principles he goes by, his outlook on relationships, and yet the fact that he realizes that he might not always follow them in the heat of the moment, or at least that it isn't always cut and dry. I feel you capture that aspect really well. Thought it was very clever the no kissing part, added another catch to the game and you wonder if he will give into his impulses to kiss her. Also nice to only have his point of view, I like when a writer gives us his perspective then hers but sometimes its great to be limited to only one plus dialogue and third person narratives to fill in the rest. More simply, I really enjoyed both chapters but this one especially. Naturally I look forward to the continuation... I am guessing something has to happen where their relationship will run into more challenges. Marc
Bad boy exterior... sweet romantic interior. Perfect.
Looking forward to Ch 3!
You're doing a fabulous job with this series. Please keep it coming. I can't wait to see how Cass & Gabe develop along the way.
This is the first time that I have commented on any of the stories on this site, but I just felt compelled to let you know how wonderful I think your stories are! The settings and the characters are so real and I love your writing style - the sex scenes are hot but the story is always what hooks me. I will be awaiting the next chapter eagerly - keep up the good work!
Great character development. You've provided us with a glimpse of the inner thoughts of Gabe and Cass. From what I've read so far, I think the rules are about to be broken. Must read Chapter 3.
