I absolutely adore this story. It's so wonderful to see a(n almost 10 year old) fandom bring out new talent. The 'ten years on' scenario works amazingly well, the characters are recognizable, yet different, more mature. I love how you've kept Jake an unrepentant individualist...and of course, Ham the eternal sweetheart! You resolved the Bella/Scout sexual tension wonderfully, it really does seem to have been an ephemeral infatuation. I always thought she worked so well with Sean, but that could just be Kate and Matt's chemistry.

Bless you for glossing over Will (biggest wet blanket of a protagonist *ever*.

Any more fics up your sleeve?

I loved it. It was a really good story and I read it all in one sitting. I thought that Hamilton, in particular, was very much in character. He is my favorite and I write him a lot, so I was very pleased that the entire time I thought all of his reactions and words were right on target. Great work!

Ive just read the first chapter and so far Im loving it Nicole, I think you've got everyone especially Bellas character down really well :D cant wait to read them rest :D
ps. does Ryder make an appearance? :P
