Well, I am kind of upset that you killed Booth, those two - Booth and Bones - deserve to be happy if and when they get together. But I have to admit that I thought the note was a cute touch. I just can't imagine what I would do if the love of my life were to die and leave me, it's just so sad. Great story.

beautiful yet sad ending! you did a fabulous job!

great chapter although very sad. look forward to your new fic.

:O Not Seeley!

I think you did the right thing, killing him.. If you hadn't, I know that everyone -including myself - would have asked for a sequel, and this story is just perfect as it is.

Wow. I must say that the end was quite sad, but I'm sure that was the intention. Congratulations on completing an EXCELLENT fic.

OK, i have to go to work and i'm not quite sure i've reviewed too much previously, but i will give you a piece of personal wisdom. never write (or do in general) something you don't want to do just because. follow the story and where it takes you. if it doesn't take you to death, don't do it. now, i think there was too much random tragdey in general in this story and i think you were just trying to keep it interesting, but the more you do that, the more it becomes terribly cliched. so to me death, seemed to follow. with your next story just be more careful and get to know your characters a littl better. you seem to have an idea of who they are and that's what makes stories interesting. good luck.

Oh my goodness! I need a tissue now. That was a good ending even if it was sad. Loved every bit.

I don't know what you're talking about! I enjoyed your story immensely. If any jackass decides that they're going to flame you for your story's end tell them that this is what fanfiction is all about, making your own little world, with someone else's characters, and making that world yours. It's whatever is in your fantasy, not whatever's in theirs. Well done. Samantha

Wow! I don't know what to say besides wow!! I don't like character deaths-especially when it is Booth that dies. But you did it quite tastefully--the note especially. I loved the entire story, so my hat goes off to you.

Wow! You wanted a bang to end the story...this was definitely a bang. In a way it kind of does open new doors for this story to continue on in a different path...one without Booth. It actually is a pretty good ending despite the shocker. I don't know if you want to do this or not but to change the category of this story from Family/Romance to Family/Romance/Tragedy because of Booth's death at the end there.

I have no problem with you killing Booth. However, for some reason, I expected the last two paragraphs to be Brennan some years after his death, looking back, and then her drifting off peacefully to die in her sleep to be with her beloved Seeley again. Strange the things readers expect and authors don't write. Still, nice story.

u nearly made me cry with this chapter! i said not to kill anyone off but u ignored me. anyway, great chapter even if it was very sad.
have a good hol x

excellent chapters. what a great life they're having. wow great reactions from Booth in 16 & 17. will ryan take care of Bea? love how bones is taking care of her. will seeley finally see his daughter needs him look forward to more soon

I CANNOT believe Booth threatened the kid!
anyways it really made me laugh! LOL

So strange that Seeley is so calm about all this and so nice that Ryan is man enough to own up to his responsibilities without Seeley having to threaten him.

I loved it! I can see it all perfectly in my mind. Great job!!
