I knew that Roy’s story had to be big…. But let me just say… WOW! It was heart-breaking and so emotional.Shanora… You hit this one out of the park! I loved getting the story from past and present and also from different POVs.I felt for Roy in so many ways. I was drawn to his character and the experiences he went through as if I was there experiencing it with him. I was angry at the situation he was in and the things he had to do to take care of his mom. All the sacrifices he made because he loved her so much. He saw how much she sacrificed for him and the things she did to make sure he had what he needed growing up and he wanted to do all those things in return. I felt the love he had for her and how much of a priority she was in his life.I hated the way he had to make money because of his appearances. I know that in reality sometimes because of our looks we can’t get decent jobs. It doesn’t matter that you are a good person on the inside… if your outer appearance also doesn’t fit that same “look” then you won’t be hired. He was treated so poorly by Corey and his group. I’m also surprised at how long he kept it a secret from everyone. I figured that it would be hard considered he would have to be where needed when called.I enjoyed seeing the passionate side of Roy but also seeing the dominate side of him too! He definitely doesn’t have a problem with pleasing a woman in bed. Ladies… you may need to fan yourself off after reading some of those steamy scenes!Although he doesn’t always consider every aspect of the situation and cares more than he probably should, Roy truly loves with all his heart. He isn’t the type to hate anyone. This is an admirable quality of Roy’s but it could also be his downfall. He has to learn to let go of the past and fight for his future and go after what he truly wants.Embark on Roy’s journey with him, but first make sure you read the other two stories in the FireNine series, Who He Is and Who We Are. I must say though, Gage still is #1 for me... I loved reading Roy's story and thought it was phenomenal but I just love me some Gage!
