Hey! ^_^ School has been crazy, but I did get a chance to read your update ... albeit fifteen days after it was posted. ^^;; Better late than never, right?

On to the comments! This chapter made me go, "Aw." =^.^= Casey's home was a perfect contrast to Liadan's, well done. Personally, I loved the Spanish. *grin* It added a sort of atmosphere ... that, and I had far too much fun seeing how much I understood. XD

Good chapter, Casey's so sweet. ^_^ Delays are certainly understandable, and yours aren't bad compared to some writers. ... *cough, shifty eyes* u.u
That's exactly it with the charity! I don't know why pride is so important, but it is. *nod*

I know how you feel with the workload, though yours is probably worse than mine. At least you have the boys there to comfort you, right? ^.~ Good luck with it, though, and try not to stress too much!

Hmm, if you didn't notice already, I write long reviews. I can't help it, really. o.x Anyway, I must be off. Keep up the good job, and update when you can! ^_^

CUBAN? He's CUBAN? That's so cool. He he, great stuff. I'm taking a Spanish course at school, so hopeful someday I will understand the Spanish written here. You know how some people are obsessed with Japanese culture? Well, for me it's Latin cultures. I really like this chapter:)Bonus for me is that I see my name! Keep writing . . . less space between updates! Your audience is demanding. - Christina

Look, look! It's the height of procrastination! God, i shouldn't do this...but I can't help it...the spanish is a nice touch.

p.s. WEIRD CHICKS 4 LIFE YO!

o, u updated sorrie couldnt review last night but had to do some case briefs... anyway on to this wonderful piece of fiction. this was great i mean seriously i love casey i mean i always have but which gurl doesnt want her man to have a supporting family like that and readin it the spanish is confusing she u lingo it in the with the english. nice update u make the reader's job of loving casey become easier and easier. update whenever u can

Oh definately a contrast to Raines life. LoL. And damn straight the spanish was confusuing but oh well. As long as nothing important was missed its all good. It just showed that Casey's family is close and speaks another language, and love Liadan enough to help her learn some of it, so yah... no need to do translations. Pretty much guessing that they prolly said hi, hello, how r u? Casey go set a plate for her, shes always welcome at the table, stuff like that. Lol.
GOOD WRITING CHICKIE! KEEP IT UP!

This is a raelly good story you've got here.I really want to know where it is heading next.

Heyla, remember me? ^^ Probably not, but I suppose it doesn't matter too much. You asked me to take a look at your story, and I apologize for it taking so long for me to do so. Anyway, I just finished reading it. I have to say that I'm not used to reading present tense, but I completely didn't notice it after about the first chapter. Good job with that. ^_^

I think the characters are the best part of this story--each of them has such a unique personality. For some odd reason, I like Roger best. Hmm. o.O

I completely understand Liadan's reaction to being given money ... I get that way, too. u.u The action and general portrayal of gangs is realistic. *nod* Overall, very well done.

Yesh, I like. ^^ Now, I must be off. Good luck with college, neh? Hope everything turns out well!

This is such a good story...down to earth and you portray your characters well! Good luck on your trip...hope to see an update a.s.a.p :)

Is it just me or is a certain part missing? Did you finally decide not to go through with the you-know-what? Good chapter regardless! *You wrote on your vacation? Inspiration strikes or just plain boredom?*

This story is gritty and it keeps it real! I can't help but love all the characters, each have their own idiosyncracies that make them perfect. Can't wait for the next chapter!

dude i wrote this HUMONGOUS review and then i go to submit it and it totally erases... gr well i'm ** so i can't write a huge one but thanks for the ** thing in this story and the other one! *squeals* I LOVE ASSES! lol update soon i hate this stupid thing... *shoots it* that's better

love

ok, something is defiently wrong with me i mean, i always pass over my fav stories, and im just soo.. .. anyway this chapter is obviously great but also very interesting. very interesting. u give us so many insites into the psych of the characters esp liaden herself. first of all casey is one hell of a looker, with the **, and body can u imagine him as a sweaty construction worker pouring water down himself to cool off, always imagined that. hehehe, yea and he is soo sweet and considerate, gangs guys always have a soft spot for their women, and that liaden, hmm give her one nite and she is addictedheheheh, well not addicted but ya know who wouldnt want more of casey. and that poor mom, working so hard and being hit on. i would carry a knife to work and a tape recorder. may come in handy. and liaden so proud, like any born leader, and what a temper. she is a character with layer and those characters are always the most realistic and tend to be the best so gurl just keep on updating and ill get my belly full(umm im not sure if thats quite american) but anyway update soon. ttyl

I LOVE this story. I was so wrapped up in reading it (I started reading only a little while ago) that I couldn't even stop to review untill there was no more to read! It was wonderful... I like the fact that you weren't 'descriptive' in your the sex scene. It was rather well done. The violence was realistic. I like the descriptions of sounds and stuff. I also noticed that you didn't describe much of what the characters look like. I catually like it when authors give little... hints at what the characters look like instead of describing them. Strangley, my newest story is a Gang story... Heh.
