Great story. Lots of twists and playing with the readers emotions.

Man, I was really freaking out that Sam was going to say that she is dating Kyle now.
What a relief that she isn't.
Cant wait for Danny to finally tell Sam that he is in love with her.

Wow! I never would have guessed that Kyle's father was pushing him to try and marry Sam because he's broke or going broke.
I wonder what about Danny that Sam is going to tell Kyle.
Great chapter.

No! I cannot believe Sam would just go off to New York with Kyle like that, without Danny by her side.
Poor Danny. He just practically admitted to Tucker that he is in love with Sam, and then she tells Danny that this pretend thing is over? I am not liking this situation right now. Danny and Sam belong together.
Sorry for the little rant, but I just love Danny and Sam together so much. Great chapter though. I really like your writing style.

Why is Danny mad that Tucker is dating the girl he likes? I thought he was starting to fall for Sam.
Great chapter. I loved Danny and Sam's fake date.

Really liked this chapter.
So, if Danny wants to find out if Sam is a screamer, then that probably means that he wants to sleep with her. Just a guess.
And why was Tucker recording the debate on his PDA?

Wow! That make out session between Danny and Sam was too passionate for it to be a fake out make out. It seemed like they were really getting into it.

I am hoping that Danny and Sam will not be faking this relationship by the end of all this. They belong together.
And I hope Sam doesnt give Kyle a chance because I dont like him. But I can so see Sam's parents actually doing something like this to her if the show had continued on, because they clearly hate Danny's family.

Wow! I dont like Kyle at all. He took Sam's first real kiss.
He better not try to take her innocence because that would be crossing the line.
I hope this pretend relationship between Danny and Sam turns out to be real in the end, because something tells me that Danny is going to forget about liking Valerie. Why does he like her anyway? I never understood what he ever saw in her on the show.

Anyway, really great chapter. You are a great writer.

Great first chapter. I like this so far.
Poor Sam. And I wonder how she will react to Danny saying that he is her boyfriend.

Wow. That was amazing! I loved it! They are so adorable and so in character, it's really easy to enjoy it! Thank you so much!

wow. this was dynamite. Sam not believing in love. It's true, love isn't solely raw emotion. It's encompasses so much more.

Love encompasses our whole being, what makes us who we are. There's a love between siblings, parents, teachers, friends, etc. And there's another type of love between husband and wife, or your significant other.

Our bodies can be sexually attracted to a random stranger on the street. But, our heart can never be joined as one. Love is that tie which binds two hearts as one. Love grows like a seed, planted in the soil of a couple's heart. Each experience, both positive and negative, either nurtures or hinders that seed's growth.

That is the truth you got across very strongly in your story. Too few people nowadays believe in real love. It's all about the one-night stands. Tina Turner summed up our generation's theology on love in her awarding winning song, 'What's Love Got To Do With it'.

I love your characterization. You showed Sam's struggle with love's concept. Danny's struggle with accepting and reciprocating Sam's love, though she didn't even realizing initially that's what she was trying to show him. And Tucker, he sought Valerie, and not just because they're both African American. They both share a similar backstory, more important that race.

These mutual experiences, and their differences, is what mold your character's relationships and interaction with others, in how they shape each scene within your story.

Some might say, the songs distracted the reader's grasp of the story, but don't listen. The way you presented Myles and Sam's characters. The songs helped them bond and realize the necessity to disregard what everyone else wants and pursue their own dreams. That way, Myles could become an opera singer, or at least try, and Sam could pursue Danny, surprisingly enough with her dad's permission. That was a twist in the story I didn't see coming.

Can wait to read more.

purely an emotions. It's much more. Love encompasses our whole being-spirit, soul, and body. Our bodies can be sexually attracted to anyone. Our hearts, though, can only love that special someone in our lives.

ove's an emotion, but it's so much more, too. Love is a
decision mixed with emotion, but a oneness binding two hearts as one.

And another great story congrats

But doesn't having children with someone who you are related to cause health problems?

Sorry...apparently I wasn't logged on before. :p

I have read the whole first novella in your series and I don't think I wanna read the rest honestly. XD You had me on an emotional roller coaster from the start. Thanks for that. Both in the good and sarcastic ways. XP

Cordially, Johann Fuchs
