RedHotLover 2007-07-09 ch 7,	abuseThis was intense, breathless and exausted! I simply love it. Very well done.
RedHotLover 2007-07-09 ch 6,	abuseHoratio pulled into the closest parking lot and stopped. He sat straight up in the seat. Closed his eyes. Worked at calming his breathing, slowing his rapid pulse. The ache in his chest was close to unbearable. You wish it was as simple as a heart-attack. Horatio took deep breaths. He tried to push the demons back inside the box. No better than Pandora. Except you knew what would happen. You knew. And yet you still did it all. Built your house on the sand and now that house has crashed spectacularly down around you. And you took her with you. I tried to warn her. Liar. You threw out hints. Flashes. Never the whole truth and nothing but. You knew she couldn’t resist the tragic hero. She let you see everything. Even when she was afraid you would turn away over it. You held back. Coward. Self-fulfilling prophesy. You wouldn’t tell her because you thought she would run. She ran anyhow. You were right. You won. Mercifully, his cell rang. Horatio glanced at the display. You thought it would be her? Fool. Horatio flipped it open. “Eric?” His voice crackled. SIMPLY... MAGNIFICANT!
janelouise 2006-12-02 ch 7, anon.	abuseHi there, I'm really enjoying your story, but chapter 6 doesn't seem to be loading completely? Hope you can fix it so we can read the whole chapter. Thanks. jane
TenFour 2006-11-17 ch 8,	abuseArgh I can't believe you ended it there!! You really put us through the emotional ringer with this one...just when I thought life would calm down for the poor pair all hell breaks loose!! I have to say I think this is the best stuff you have written to date, much harder to read cause of the raw emotion but you can actually feel it jumping off the page..brilliant Please give us some more soon with a happier ending, I get stressy when H and Annie are not getting on well, it makes me sad!
123 2006-11-15 ch 8, anon.	abuseYou left many questions in open water...so...when could we read the new story?
Rainbow Stevie 2006-11-14 ch 8,	abuseI honestly thought you had more chapters for this story planned, given the length of the other installments. It seemed like it was just starting to pick up into the main part of the plot. I assume you have a reason for starting a brand-new story rather than just continuing this one? As it is, this particular chapter seems more like a prologue than a closing segment. Though that's just my initial reaction, which is subject to change once I see where you're going. Still love your writing, of course.
solitar 2006-11-14 ch 8, anon.	abuseTell me, that´s not true, you can´t do this, leave it at that point! She really get a new dead boddy to work on, it´s yours, murdered from me! I hope, you continue this as a fifth one in your series. And please, give them at least some happiness, it´s bad enough, what the show-writers already done to Horatio!
Rainbow Stevie 2006-11-13 ch 7,	abuseAh, long chapter...purr...hugs. I'm feeling a need to distribute lots of hugs. To start things off, effective opener - I wasn't actually worried, per se, but I was able to feel that same little leap of panic that Annabel did. Nicely set up. I'm liking all the references to past events of the first two stories. They not only put me into a nostalgic spin, but help to focus just how much disruption this loosed secret has caused. Which, in retrospect, makes me sad. Until they work through this, I'm going to have trouble putting myself back into the happier mood of the past (wrought with worry and injury and tears as it was, they've always had each other as a constant). Little cheer when she threw the phone back in the car. Possibly the only time I smiled. And now for some quotes. "She thought about...if someone had watched her heart and soul ripped out and then denied her the means to put things back to order." Wow - you know, I have never actually thought of it quite like that. Huh. tips head I may need to rewatch the final five of season 3. Glad you had her ask him, head-on, if he was in love with Yelina. That's important...it had to be asked, had to be confronted. And he still kind of skirted around it. "You told me you loved me. You took me to your bed. Hell, you even married me without breathing a word of this. Steadfastly standing by your lie..." I love this passage. The words just leap off the page. And what an end to the chapter. Draws to a closing plateau after a great crescendo, but sets up so much more to come. This is the part, figuratively speaking, where the executive producer credits roll across the screen, and I jump up and shriek "AH CONTINUE! How long until the next one??"
Mini 2006-11-12 ch 7, anon.	abuseMore!More!More!Please i love this story!!
solitar 2006-11-12 ch 7, anon.	abusePuh, that´s was heavy and heartbreaking. Weep my forehead. Please update soon.
Rainbow Stevie 2006-11-11 ch 6,	abuseI stand by my decision to strangle him last chapter. This chapter, however, he's won back my sympathy as you've created such an absolutely gorgeous portrait of his guilt and self-doubt. I love the whole internal monologue, but especially "You knew she couldn't resist the tragic hero." Wow, nail on the HEAD. And the line about how the kids are seen as cattle is perfect. That exchange could have been written into the show. And poor Annabel. What a day. (yikes, everything that's happened so far, it's hard to believe we haven't even gotten through a day yet...)
Ang 2006-11-07 ch 5, anon.	abusehope you update soon
123 2006-11-07 ch 5, anon.	abusesigh...So sad...and so...so...I don't know. Maby good? Yeah, I think so...but there is an other word for this an I have no idea what it is... Please! Update.
Rainbow Stevie 2006-11-07 ch 5,	abuseAnd then there are the times when I'd rather just STRANGLE him. I appreciate the complexity of the situation and the difficult position he's in, but...geeze. Spend all that time freaking Annabel out and never get around to explaining yourself, no wonder she bolted. Although the end of this chapter did make for a very poignant image. If I wasn't so annoyed with him (I'm not a very understanding person, am I?), I might feel bad at the idea of him clearing away lunch and leaving alone. Excellent storytelling skills...I'm riveted.
123 2006-11-04 ch 4, anon.	abuseOh-Oh. How bad is it? What is the story behind the man in the van and the story behind the dead boy? What is it, that the two have to talk about?
