I absolutely adored this story. I was fantastic and marvolous. The plot is magnificent and I loved the characters and the format the story was writen. It was simply great.

This is much grittier than its prequel, but the turbulent emotions were beautifully carried off- I really enjoyed the character development of Toni, and the scenery was so intricately depicted that I had no problems imagining the various scenes and characters.

Brilliant.

Amazing story - and the prequel aswell! I'm gutted there's no more to read. :[

I think that out of all of your stories this one is simply my favorite.

It's not as heavy as some of them (that's not bad, though, I've liked everything I read of yours immensely), if that makes sense, so it's an easier read which invites me to come back and read over and over again :3

Or maybe I just really like Rashim . . . .

Can I beg more Toni/Rashim? D Ha, kidding, though I wouldn't object to it.

After reading Boots, I immediately (and naturally) started reading its sequel. And was a bit shocked by the change in writing style and person. But in a good way. This means I think you're talented for being able to consciously control how you write something. After the initial "Whoa!" I really got addicted to this story. I'll have to admit, Toni was not my favorite character in Boots (but not my least either - that would be Kim's former girlfriend) but as I kept reading I'm glad you chose to tell his story from his point of view. And I kept being impressed by the way you slowly kept on developing the all of the characters - even minor ones. They were so human, so real. And the plot was so good! I do confess, I thought the story would end after Toni and Rashim fell in love and became happy. But then it kept going and even better, was still good! I was fascinated all the way to the end, and I liked the ending so very much. It was perfect in a way - the four of them are happy and friends! Such a good romantical ending. But it wasn't a sickeningly sweet everyone lived happily ever after. I definitely can imagine more happening in their lives after the end of the story as well as other stories set in their universe (Rith and Thesh, the dance company, Chaim and Toni's backstory...).

Just wanted to let you know I am reading this, but i have been so sick and havent even been able to focus on the words *sobs* I really want to finish this, its so sweet, so, I'll let you know when I finish, This fic is so perfect, I wouldnt change it in the least bit, I wouldnt dare mess with the work of a genius, this is making my head throb so this is the end of my review. You are such an awesome writer

*sobs* I'm on the verge of tears myself! This is the sweetest thing! I love this story so much, I now have to go and add you to my favourite authors list, so everyone else can get to read all your stuff! *wipes eyes*

How very beautiful, and I adore Toni; he is marvolous! Your story is saturated with sap, but it's so very romantic. I can tell you worked hard on the details, and you succeded in making it a vivid narritive. I can even see what is happening! Thank-you very much for shareing your story, it was a pleasure to read.

Amazing. Bloody wonderfully amazing and I never wanted it to end, but I'm kind of glad that it did - as I need to sleep SOME time tonight. Lovely work if I've ever seen it, and in present tense no less! Wonderful. Totally absolutely wonderful.

*eyes water* OMG...that's the BEST story...(aside from Mercedes Lackey books) that I've ever read!...actually, you're on the same level of AWESOMENESS with her! _

aw...it's so cute! _

o...good so far! _

*grins* I'm here! _ it's so good! In the prequel, Toni sounded like an ass...but the way you made him change was amazing! _ I congratulate you on your magnificent writing skills!

Awesome! Truly awesome! I loved the ending, so touching and perfect and right.
The way Toni matures and grows as a person through the story is just great. He and Chaim are my favourite characters, for several reasons. Mainly because they remind me of two of my best friends, but that's beside the point.
You have a wonderful way of describing the atmosphere and feelings and all that, which can be hard at times. Especially from a first person POV. But you did it well, and I never lost interest in the story, not once. Not even when for some odd reason I forgot about it (which I did, many times...)
I just have to say that I really like this story, and I hope to read more from you soon. Keep up the good work!

PS: I would've reviewed sooner, but I wanted to know where would it end. And, as said before, the ending was perfect. Congrats!
