This was a tremendous story. The last chapter is amazing. Thanks for sharing.

I just love your stories! They are very emotional. This was so great! A caskett love story!

What an absolutely beautiful story from beginning to end! I absolutely LOVED it! Amazing job!

What a wonderful chapter! I’m so happy that you had Castle talk to Kate about the deal with Smith; that always upset me when watching season 4.

I flew through all of the chapters before this one but felt the need to comment here. I love how open Rick and Kate are being with one another to work on their budding relationship, and how vulnerable Kate is allowing herself to be around Rick. Kudos!

This was so good! Big fan of the metaphor of swimming and diving in you used. It just works so well. It’s all Kate wanted to do. Just dive in.

Incredible story from beginning to the end. I did love the ending. So much wrapped up in the last 4 short lines.

I love your storytelling. The show was good. But this is so much better!

Thank you again for writing this and sharing it with your fans.

Oh my! This chapter is just Perfect! Thank you for writing and sharing this fantastic story.

Can't wait to read more. Already wishing there was a sequel!

This is beautiful!

Lovely read.

What a wonderful AU! It would’ve been interesting for them to start season 4 together with a 2 hour episode of flashbacks to these scenes. Well done!

I loved this story so much ️ you are so incredible

This is hands down the best post-shooting/cabin in the woods fic I've read. (I'm thoroughly enjoying all of your work btw). It was very realistic in the progression of their relationship, while being healing and restorative both physically and emotionally for the two. You captured the reverence Castle has for Beckett so beautifully and made me feel like being wrapped in a warm blanket of love. The water metaphors were touching (and funny) and perfectly sprinkled throughout the story to tie it together. Your writing is truly exceptional and the stories you've created are just wonderful.

Great read. This is how the "Smith" situation should have been handled. Your ending point is set up perfectly for a sequel. At the 12th, Kate's relationship with Alexis, moving in together and so many other possibilities. Please keep writing.

Regards
