Reader Recommendations:
I usually don't go for stories with this much angst, but this tale was just so gripping that I couldn't look away. Five stars, 10/10, the top score in any rating system you choose. This story made me laugh, it made me cry, it made my heart ache. It made me so grateful for what I have, and reminded me that hope is never gone. Read this. If you skip it, you're doing yourself a disservice. - Rae D. Magdon - Feb-10-2010
Oh wow, this story was amazing!! loved it - Anonymous - Feb-11-2010
a lot of angst, but wow what a great story.. definitely needs a sequel - helena c - Feb-11-2010
This is the first recommendation i have ever left, and i can only say this story was amazing!
I rarely de-lurk, despite having read numerous great (and terrible!) stories over the years, but this has to rank in my top 3.
What a fantastic writer. This should defintely be published and if it is not, I can only say there is no justice in this world!
Can't wait to see what you write next. For god's sake don't stop!! - Bungle - Feb-12-2010

Wow, what a read. Angsty and hot in just the right measure. Brilliant stuff- a
must. - Bensongrrl - Feb-18-2010
Truly an angst ridden tale with much drama and love! Kept me riveted to my seat with many surprising twists and turns. Not your usual love story, but a great one none the less. One of the best I've read in a long time. - legatoeff - Feb-19-2010
**** SPOILER ALERT **** Ok... well how do I start, this story is very gripping, it's painful, you start slowly, lightly but then it's not so light anymore and you have to keep reading to reassure yourself that they will (and you will in consequence) get a happy ending. In the end, this story was too poignant to allow me to sleep, because it made me reflect on a lot of topics afterwards. MUST READ - Anonymous - Feb-19-2010
Wow!
This was a truly riviting story. So many times after
reading a page. I couldn't quiet my mind. It had me
reflecting on the characters and their connections.
Run don't walk and read this most compelling piece of
work. - Christi - Feb-24-2010
A really great read!
I have been a little melancholy all day because I finished this story last night and now I miss the characters so much.
More please!!!

If you feel like there's nothing original out there, and you're in need of a good story, read Denial. I bet my recommendation reputation that you will adore this story & not want to stop reading...even when you've read "The End." - IB - Mar-03-2010
So heart wrenching, so amazing - Anonymous - Mar-05-2010
What an incredibly powerful story. This author has woven an exquisite tapestry with light and shade and everything in between .Adjectives escape me but these will have to do ..intelligent,well paced,emotionally gripping,tragic, uplifting and incredibly erotic ...and all of them at just the right times and in just the right measures.I have already re-read this 3 times and have joined this forum just so I could comment.This is a unique story and while it cannot be compared to any other I have read I am reminded of my other favourite story by K Alexander "An Audience with the Side walk Saviour" in that both leave you feeling like you have been on an emotional roller coaster and both stay with you long after the reading. Well done to Omega13.You are very very gifted. - prufrock - Mar-05-2010
Oh fuck me - pretty much sums up this fic, or was at least my reaction to it. Gorgeously written high class drama drenched in angst and extreme hotness while staying away from the cliche's. Punched the air of of my luigns (that's the joint description of loins and lungs). A definite must read. - Ape - Mar-10-2010

WOW!! I don't know where to begin! Never have I been so deeply affected by a story! Omega13 is one very talented author. This story needs to be published or turned into a screenplay! I cannot stop thinking about these characters. This is one of the most heart-wrenching, gut-wrenching, erotic, emotional rollercoasters I have ever had the privilege of taking a ride on! And what a ride it was! At certain points in the story my heart actually hurt and I wept openly for each and every one of the characters, and smiled and felt a sense of joy when it ended. I would love to hear more about Celeste's and Amy's life together. It seems to me that there is still much more to tell about these two wonderful characters and there families. Bravo Omega13! This is a masterpiece, and I look forward to reading more from you hopefully in the very near future! This is a tour de force and rates a 10 all around! - Anonymous - Mar-19-2010

**** SPOILER ALERT **** The story is really captivating. It has witty and very sad moments, only thing i didn't like was the shortcut end. But as we al know, every story needs to end... (sorry for any bad english, I'm not a native speaker) - thorstochter - Mar-31-2010
I rarely de-lurk but thanks to you, Omega13, my Sunday with pals was completely hijacked. I had planned to max out my flexible friend on a shopping spree that the Beckhams wouldve been proud of. Have a slap-up lunch, swallow it down with a good few glasses of two-for-one vino tinto and prop it up with a gossip session that involved sex and who was and wasnt getting any, who was nearly getting any, who had pencilled in the potential of getting any. You get the picture, Im sure. But, as I like to snuggle in my bed a little longer on the Sabbath, I thought Id visit this site and catch a few chapters of the latest posting. Big mistake. Once I clicked on the link to Denial, I was hooked. So hooked, I soon hit the point of no return and couldnt put my laptop down. This isnt your usual happy-clappy forgettable pap, I reassured myself as I fumbled for the phone to re-arrange my day.
You created a captivating, vivid world, filled with two smart, strong-willed, complex and very sassy women. They not only surprised and amused me, but at certain points they broke my heart. Equally, I loved the dialogue, and the fact that you used the verb said to carry it. Not too many gasped, grumbled, cautioned, or she asseverated. Yes. I had to look that one up too.
This story not only rubbed my emotions raw, but also got up close and very personal. All in all top marks, because as exceptional writer should, you made me cry and hiccup like a ten-year old over characters that dont exist and events that have never happened.
If you ever get this published, Omega13, your novel will find a snug and well loved place on my bookshelf. For me, this ones definitely a keeper, and I can't recommend it highly enough.
- Sarah - Mar-31-2010
WOW! This is truly a FANTASTIC story. I LOVED it from the first paragraph to the last. I hated that it ended and could have kept reading about these complex, yet wonderful characters. I really hope this gets published; I would definitely buy it. - Barb - Apr-01-2010
Amy has it all, but to her detriment she soon discovers that she wants something else more. This exceptional story will make you laugh, it will make you think and it will break your heart. It's very well written, has captivating characters, a superb plot and it's hotter than hell! You can't put it down once you've started. I look forward to more work from this author. What an absolute GEM! - Sai - Apr-01-2010

**** SPOILER ALERT **** Not your usually fanfic romance - it is romance but lots of conflicts which touch on very sensitive issues. So this story is thought provoking on many levels. The manuscript is very well beta read with only minor errors which is an added bonus. The end could have been a bit more elaborate since so many people were affected. - bookgeek - Apr-10-2010

Very good read! ^^
This bard has managed to catch some aspects of desire in a really realistic way! She seems to like complicated situations, complicated feelings, but all of this leads to only one painting, full of nuances and powerfull contrasts... one of the kind of love that drives someone to distraction.
My words may sound pretty "classique" but this story keep in its core an essence that touch the reader in the most particular way. So read it and you'll feel your stomack tickling a few times...

This story has lots of VERY SUPER HOT AND EROTIC SEX SCENES (about a half a dozen extended ones) that I immediately clipped and pasted into my ebook, under the title 'Cherry Dreams' to read over and over at night before I go to bed. This story had it all - forbidden love, tragedy, epic romance and contact from the great beyond. Love it! - happykt - May-11-2010 - happykt - May-21-2010
Honestly, this is the best story I've read in a very long time. The journey that these two women go through pulled me in completely. If you do anything this weekend, read this story. It truly is wonderful. - Karen - Jun-18-2010

Now THIS is what I call a story. I've decided to come out of lurk-land and post my very first recommendation cause this one is entirely worth it. This is the second time I've read this story, in one entire day no less, and I just can't get enough of all the intense conflict and interaction between Amy and Celeste. There is nothing better and more heartbreaking than a forbidden romance. And to top it all off, I could not stop listening to Radiohead's "House of Cards" while reading this...it's the perfect theme song for this brilliant novel. It kinda feels like the story stemmed from the song itself with the lyrics "I don't wanna be your friend, I just wanna be your lover" in the beginning and "denial" repeating over and over at the end.
Recommended to anyone whose willing to ignore the world for a couple of hours and just disapper into the passionate lives of Celeste and Amy. - warriorqueen - Jul-17-2010

I've ignored and passed this story by for months without a thought. Finally nearly bored to tears this weekend I decided to give it a whirl... BEST DECISION EVER!!!!! Hands down "Denial" has catapulted to one of my all time favorites. Thanks Omega13 :) You did an amazing job at keeping me glued. I laughed. My stomach lurched. My heart breaked. I hoped.

Beautiful. Hard to find the right words to describe the emotional impact it has on you. A Powerful story, amazingly deep characters that you fall in love with instantly. This story is gripping, yet tender, joyful and still filled with the sorrow of life. It is one of the most touching stories I have ever read. All I can say is, thank you for sharing this with all of us. I would say that to not read this, would be to cheat yourself of something truly wonderful. - Fern - Dec-26-2010

I'm with the other 163 readers who have left some brilliant comments on how good this story is. It's outstanding. There are only a few stories out there that resonate like this one for me and I haven't read one like this in a very, very, very long time. I like the reader before, have revisited this story time and time again, and each time, I connect with it. It's magnificent. Quite literally stunning, what else can I say but read it.

Sometimes I'll read stories based on recommendations and 95% of the time I think "That was okay, but not great. The story did not move me." HOWEVER, this is a masterpiece! It is beyond great and wonderful in every way imaginable. You know without a shadow of a doubt that the two characters loved each other. And that's what makes a brilliant story. - DS-C - Jan-23-2011

Hi Folks,
I just want to say how stunned I am. Wow! Who knew that getting in to trouble for day dreaming thoughout my entire school life would eventually pay off!
And just to compound the daydreaming, I also suffer from compulsiveness. So, I'm about to do the one thing that I shouldn't - which is to write something when I've had a few glasses of wine. The reason is that I need to share my happiness at the Xenafiction site folks for doing what is clearly a huge amount of hard graft for not a single penny and with such aplomb. And to you folks for giving me such a stonker of a surprise.
This is a bitter sweet time for me. I have a friend who was diagnosed with cervical cancer. As it turned out it was all consuming. My friend did that thing that many of us do which is to ignore our own health while looking after others. And when she finally got it checked, it was too late. So she fought the good fight and bowed out graciously just the other day. She leaves behind a legion of family and friends, and husband and a five year old son. She was a fiery red head with a husky voice and a personality that resonated with gizillions of love. She was too young. Too full of live and had too short a time here.
This morning, I went to work and left - couldn't really stay focused. I came home and just needing some time alone - cooked. Cooking (whatever is to hand...which is sometimes scarey)is my passion. And bunging my concoction in the oven, I topped up my glass of wine and sauntered over to my laptop, and thought I would escape for a wee bit by visiting my favourite site that I hadn't been to in while.
Blimely...What a shocker...I've hit the jackpot...10 number 1's and not a Photoshop boob in sight...And story of the year. After doing a jig, I thought it must be a mistake...Do they realise how many good stories are out there on this site?
But, after a few quiter woops and a few less enthusiastic jigs, I read through the the 25'er lists, and by jove, it looks like little ole me actually did it....Yeahah!
So, all I can say is that when I sent Denial in. I think it was my third story by then. The other two being J/7 fanfic. I didn't expect much, and was thrilled to see that people were giving feedback. But to get such a huge response with Denial has been amazing. I never, ever thought that it would touch so many of you.
So, to shorten this very long story. I just want to say cheers for reading Denial, and that Amy and Celeste are stilll very much alive, in my head, and continuing to blossom as a couple and as a family (arguing occassionally then making up in that fiercely hot way that they do...rooorrrhhh...)
And to finish...Annemarie. Here's to you, doll. We love you.
- Omega13 - Feb-09-2011
OMG. That's the first thing that comes to my mind after reading this fanfic. I have never been so touched by ffs before. You knew exactly when, where and how to push all our emotional buttons without sounding cheesy and too melodramatic. Everyone already gave you glowing recommendations. Let me just address you directly. Omega13 you are so blessed to have this god-given gift, and we are so blessed that you are writing femslash. I will go back and re-read my favorite sections of Denial (actually anything about Celeste) when I'm done with my work (couldn't get any work done today just had to finish reading it). And thank you SO MUCH for having mercy on us by giving us the epilogue. BTW, I'm so thankful I came back to this site to make this comment or I wouldn't have seen the epilogue, as I had read the PDF version of Denial and its not there. [Editor's Note: The epilogue is now included in the eBook versions. 02-23-2011]

Such a beautiful story! WOW
I have to say that when I heard about this story I didn't really want to read it, I usually don't read novels whithout a teaser or a resume.
So I googled it to see if I could find anything, after readind a review I have to say I still wasn't sure. I was afraid there was to much angst, and I'm not a fan of stories that covers several years in time. But I'm curious and I had to find out about this 10 times top 25 story. I started reading it yesterday night and I could move from my chair since.
SO people if you are like me and hate those kind of stories that are too angsty, if you afraid that this story is the kind that keeps it's characters for years(and entire chapters) at the botom of the well, believe me this one is nothing like that, it's so well written that you don't see the years passing. This author is such a good writer that with only a few words she says what some people strugle to write with a thousand words. I get bored very easily and I'm the kind of reader that jumps the boring stuff. And I have to say that this author kept me intrigued from the very first word to the last one!

Yes, you cannot deny (egad, I really wrote that!) that Omega13 is blessed with a God-given gift, and she executes it masterfully. This is not "simply a story," it's peeking (yes, I mean that) into these fully-developed characters' / people's lives and experiencing everything they are living; it's an adventure. It is THE ride that never stops going around and around. I think I might get tired of it, I think I might want off, but no! I want more of it. I don't want it to end. I will read this again and again, and I will feel again the emotions I felt the first time...I have no doubts. I am exhilarated and exhausted and sad and happy, and oh so turned on! And I want more of Celeste and Amy and their families. - Anonymous - Aug-18-2011
This one is definitely a must read!! It was like a rollercoaster ride, amazing characters, I give it a 10! - F - Aug-22-2011

Best story ever! Gay or straight - Anonymous - Oct-15-2011
So much for the weekend chores, not to mention the red rimmed eyes. Couldn't put it down, didn't put it down. Loved it. Ready to start it all over again. - Piedpiper - Oct-17-2011

Read this work and get wet. very interesting. love the plot goes wit my kind of mind. You re a very good writer with the right mind. Love it. - Chinwe - Nov-21-2011
I can't believe that it has taken me this long to read this story and - guess what - I ended up devouring it in one sitting. There is so much that can be said and has been said about this novel that I'll never do it justice in in one or two paragraphs. But for me, this is a mouth gaping, air sucking, eybrow raising, chest clutching proper love story. It's filled with real people and their intertwined struggles. And I got hooked on Celeste and Amy - on their issues, their compromises, and their overall journey to find themselves and each other.
Seriously, this story really touched me. So much so, that I re-read it right away, and I can't recommend it enough. Just so you know, I am very pernickty reader and this will be one of the very few novels that I'll re-visit often because even though it's a romance, it's also a very insightful and grounding book. - LIbby33 - Dec-19-2011
Angst Alert!! There are few lesbian romance stories that surprise me. This one did in a wonderful way. As I read, I found myself questioning my own moral code and thought provoked by what the characters were trying to workout. Somewhere along the journey I found myself setting aside my own personal beliefs and hoping for love to overcome even in such circumstances. - DD - Jan-06-2012
Just remarkable... - Taylor - Feb-19-2012
Amazing! It took me a few chapters to understand the connections between everyone, but I could not stop reading once I got started. - Anonymous - Mar-26-2012
Dude, please tell me that youre hdeaing to publish more. I notice you havent written another blog for a while (Im just catching up myself). Your weblog is just also important to be missed. Youve acquired so very much to say, these knowledge about this topic it would be a shame to see this blog disappear.

This is definitely the BEST ff I've read in a long,long time... sooo passionate and heartbreaking at times.... I'll be revisiting this often. - Beaulashes - Apr-10-2012
I couldn't even remember the last time a fanfic kept me up at night and a zombie for work the next day. After reading this fic, I now do. Seriously, simply OUTSTANDING! SO FREAKING HOT! So much passion and love... I'm not a big Star Trek fan, so I'm hoping for more ubber pieces by Omega13!!! o/ - Babyjune - Apr-29-2012
Awesome book! Some parts had me crying my eyes out. The sex is pretty good too! - stonewalldog - May-11-2012

very nyc - Anonymous - Sep-12-2012
oh my this story has it all! Anger, passion, angst, longings, desire; again all locked up in one jar. Just like the story ''Playing the role for herself''. This is real life, without this much emotion life wouldn't be much of a challenge. Regardless of anyone's sexual orientation and culture this story is absolutely splendid. - Anonymous - Sep-12-2012
What a great beautiful story!!! I couldn't stop reading until the end. Thank you very much for sharing it! - Ayla - Sep-29-2012
**** SPOILER ALERT ****
Just read this story and couldnt help stopping by to say how truly amazing it is. So full of drama and 'on the edge', yet so bright and full of light, and, above all, so real, deeply emotional and permeated with life&
At the end it reminded me somewhat of Jonathan Carroll style.
As an international journalist I know exactly what it means to be on the ground in places like Somalia. So, dont know if uve really been to MSF, Omega13, or are somehow related to it, but I can tell u for sure that your description is totally realistic and true, adding a lot to immersion into the story. Its a bit sad that u didnt give it a go by publishing more broadly. I only encountered it by accident (thank God I did :)), and I can clearly see how this story could become more popular. I really hope that someone would film your stunning story one day.
So thanks so much for sharing it, Omega13! - Jordan Moonfire - Nov-13-2012
