Something Else Entirely, écrit par ashhhmareee

Jet Wesley learned early on in life that family doesn't always imply unconditional love and happily ever afters. He well and truly received a thorough education in the art of emotionally detached, addicted parents and brothers with few priorities in life apart from where to get their next fix. After spending his early teenage life getting himself into similar trouble to that of his parents and older brothers, Jet was welcomed in with open arms by a completely different type of family, one which saw a young and vibrant couple more determined than ever to teach him a whole new understanding of what it means to genuinely love and care about someone so much that it completely changes the course of your life. Still, at not quite eighteen, Jet can't shake the lingering connections to his biological family, who seem hell bent on reminding him of who he used to be and where he came from, despite all the effort he has dedicated to making positive choices for himself, his family and friends. When Jet learns that both his older brothers have been arrested for drug possession, driving under the influence and assault of a police officer, Jet has to fight to regain control of the life he has created with Ruben, Sadie and their son Madden, just as much as he needs to continue growing into the type of son, brother, friend and partner he can truly be proud of.

The Love we Share, écrit par Poetryinmotion1982

Based on the well known Chinese drama, Go Ahead, this story takes a look into family, love and relationships. Not all bonds are the ties of blood, sometimes something more is needed for us to be happy. Family isn't always blood, it's the people in your life who want you in theirs : the ones who accept who you are, the ones who would do anything to see you smile and who love you no matter what! - Maya Angelou
