Why this must be read:

This is the story that pulled fandom to a halt every week for a few months earlier this year (or at least my corner of the fandom.) If you haven't heard of this one I'll explain. This is a long story set over a 12 month period, it's relatively new it was only finished a few months ago. Basically Beth and Kaelie had finished writing the story before they began posting it. So they did final edits and begain posting the story weekly. And JuC fans everywhere (and a lot of non-JuC fans) were hooked.

The story is an AU with wonderfully developed characters. Justin is a junior editor at an independent book publisher in New York and JC is a highly paid CEO. The world, the characters, the descriptions-the entire story is phenomenally detailed and dimensional. This is an amazing story. It's really well plotted and paced. The sex is hot and the drama is hotter. I think what gets people about this story is the emotional aspect of it, with characters as sympathetic and highly developed as this, it's impossible not to feel invested in the outcome of the story.

I feel really dumb saying you're welcome when you two did all the work. I really love this story. It's so good and I got so emotionally attatched to your JC and Justin. My rec doesn't do the story justice. Thank you for writing it.
