Excellent Story

I listens to this series as I worked. It was very entertaining. I found myself talking back to the story, laughing and being super engulfed in the story and it’s characters. I can’t wait to listen to season 2.

authentic

A times it's good to hear life, especially since you live it. Makes me feel less weird or like I'm alone.

The truth

I imagine that many gay athletes have a similar discovery if they haven't come out yet or completely honest with themselves. It's a scary line being walked and so many people can get hurt or affected by it. The story is addictive, I want to know what happens next! The url isn't sufficient so I'm stuck to find out about season 2. www.sticherpremium.com/fruit
