I just love your writing style - economical and structured, yet conveying feeling and the subtely of the characters. The kind of writing that keeps a person up way past bed-time - but it was worth it.

This is good, but it screams SEQUEL! Then ending was a bit harsh, don't you thinl? Maybe you could turn this into a AU fic-- juat a thought. I loved the plot, the charters, and your style of writing. Write more, here or in other DA fics!

You did a marvelous job describing the mess Grace is in and her dificulty in deciding what to do. "Max was a brilliant strategist. She had Grace either way. Tell him, and end it on the spot, or don’t tell him, and live with a ticking bomb." I really liked Grace's realization about Logan's other lives. There really is so much she doesn't know. But she too is an excellent strategist. The way she dealt with Lydecker was very intelligent as was her willingness to continue working with Logan. The tears at the end though captured the essence of what she is going through. She loves him and wants to help him but she can never really have him. Another wonderfully written chapter.

I really like Grace's competitiveness (not wanting to appear amatuerish) and her concurrent admiration of Max (couldn't help admiring Max's instant alertness. I really love Grace's resourcefulness. What better way to deal with the soldiers than with the 'truth'. Max noticed that as well. "You seem to be a pretty good liar. You’ve been faking people out all night." You've really captured both Max and Grace's reluctance to talk about the Logan issue. "Are you serious? You’re alive and it’s just going to slip my mind? ‘Oh, did I mention that I ran into Max the other night?'" It actually makes me sad that Max doesn't see a future for herself and Logan. I think Grace sees is too.

The checkpoint solution was priceless. I wracked my brains and had no clue how they would get through. But you just used the facts and made them work. You continued to work with the tension between Max and Grace but in the end Max's soft spot for those with integrity came through. Her comment about Logan 'hitting it off' with Grace was the highest praise she could have given. I also liked the little details that showed Jace's strength as an X5. The fact that she squeezed Sophie's had too hard was a perfect example.

Hi moonshadow. I've been meaning to leave you a real review since you first wrote this marvelous fic Now a couple of months later I finally have the opportunity. You've picked up beautifully where you left off with John Doe showing us Grace's very real sadness at her breakup with Logan but this time there is a difference. You introduce tension right away with Grace's realization that she is being watched in her grief. Then just as she begins to relax, what she half expected actually happens and someone shows up at her door. Only the 'someone' is the one she expected the least. Max. Wonderful job taking us rapidly from Grace's normal world under the fluorescent lights to the shadows of Max's world. Grace is smart and adaptable though. She quickly puts 2 and 2 together. Grace's memory or the warrant for the 'female fugitive' shows just how intelligent she is. The tension between Max and Grace is palpable. Neither of them quite knows how to deal with the other. The way Grace gave away her relationship with Logan was perfectly written as was Max's response. I also liked the references to Grace's faith throughout this section, especially Max's 'isn't that against your religion?' and ‘Cause you’ve now put your fingers in the nail holes.' That line said it all.

This is a really lovely epilogue. I've really been enjoying this story. I would have liked to have seen more of it, but I can see your point about leaving things as they are in anticipation of the season premiere. I'm glad that you've left things open for the possibility of more Grace stories in the future. I look forward to reading more of your work.

Ahhhh! This epilogue is a very good ending to the story--a "for now" ending. Although it's driving me crazy not knowing what's going on with Logan and Max, the wait for the season premiere is doing the same thing, so I guess it's all good. I loved the part where Grace stuck her fingers in her ears because she didn't want to know; it reminded me of what I often do as a spoiler virgin. :) I like the way Bling offered Grace a chance to be in on all the action when she's ready to. By the way, you capture all the characters' voices very well. I could imagine Bling saying all of this. You even made Original Cindy sound authentic in the last chapter, and that's hard to do. I'm so glad you wrote this fic, and I can't wait to see your future stories. :)

OMG!!! You are SO LUCKY you added an epilogue because otherwise I would just have to strangle you for ending this here! I like the different dream sequences, but you didn't finish ANYTHING. Yeesh. And to think I had been wondering whether I'd stay up to read both this part and the epilogue tonight. Now I know for sure that the epilogue will be my very next stop!

Wow. Just...wow. What can I say? At first I was a little disappointed that this installment was shaping up to be all introspection, but then the action/conversation picked up and you knocked me over by bringing Lydecker in. I also didn't expect Krit to be the one tailing Grace! It should be interesting to see how Logan and Grace deal with being together again (at least outwardly). Can't wait to read chapter five. :)

Now, those are some pretty surreal dream sequences. That was a very plausible reason you had for Grace not wanting to be ordained, not wanting to work for the military government now that it's become the head of the church. I had been wondering how Grace could be the hospital chaplain and not be celibate. I know this can't be the end, so please don't keep me waiting too long for the next chapter.

Uh! That's not nice. You can't just leave us hanging like that. Oh. By the way if Logan ends up with that Grace chic, I will be one angry fanfiction reader!!!
