Lea!

I'm glad you decided to start posting this story now!  I love the beginning.  You have vividly shown how Claudia and Sonny are so selfish in their thinking that most likely in the end that will be their downfall.  Claudia for rationalizing how it was everyone else's fault in Michael's shooting except hers.  Sonny in thinking he can play Jason because of his blind loyalty to him.  But I think Sonny made a mistake by bringing up Elizabeth, he has caused Jason to be angered at the mob boss, and that again may be Sonny's downfall.  I'm glad Jason set Sonny straight that he isn't with Sam now only if we didn't have to watch them actually spend time together that would make me happy.

*sigh* and every time I read about Ric in a fic it reminds me how much I miss him.  UGH GH and their stupid politics.

Oh and if characters have to die can Sam be one of them please, please.  Maybe she could just be in the wrong place at the right time
