RAW, HOT, INTENSE...What can i say. I'm new to K/S but now i'm addicted. Your story was just so erotic. I envy you that you can put words on my computer screen and make me scream in delight. How amazing the power of the word and the imagination. It's almost as if the reader is a voyeur of sorts and enjoys the ride with them. Thanks for this....you made my universe. [1]

I loved this when I saw it on Kardasi.com and still do. [1]

This story was my find of the day!! :-DDD This is a classic plot I had seen several times before, yet you managed to bring it something more :) I loved the opening setting at the Altair IV reception, the very telling scene with Spock and Chapel that made unnecessary to explain that Spock had bonded to Kirk, the wicked-grin-inducing moment when Bones figured that out, the obvious concern in Jim's voice when he talked to Bones... And oh, that heated, tension-charged discussion where Jim pushed Spock until Spock not only realized, but accepted, that Jim truly wanted this... Plus, you have a very nice way with descriptions, showing more than you tell - which I consider the mark of a skilled writer - and I just plain loved your character's voices. :) That was a really great moment for me today :). Thank you! [1]

Ya know, this story was tender and romantic up til the point you had Spock go all Bondage and violent, then I lost interest. Seems lots of writers want to have Spock in Pon Far be violent, I just do not buy that concept. I think if he loves his Bondmate, he would not harm that person physically, Period. [1]

Oh man, that was fucking sublime. Fucking loved the inclusion of Dr. McCoy. He is such a cheeky little shit, I laughed out loud constantly. [2]

Really liked this one. :}[2]

I am so glad you cross posted this here, because I likely never would have found it and it’s So Good!!! It is amazingly in character! And the intensity of their connection really shines! Bravo!!! Thank you for such an awesome fic!!![2]

Scrumptious! :) Thanks for sharing[2]
