This might just be the best chapter in SV. It's well balanced and the voices of the squints are just right. Hope to see you writing in this universe or fandom once again.

That was horrible... horrible in what she did to Booth, not in your writing. It must have been incredibly hard to write because I could completely feel Booth's pain throughout this and I imagine you must have felt it as well in order to express it so well. I think for the first time I actually don't think that Brennan deserves him. Although I'm hoping you manage to bring me back around to the good side in the end.

Okay, I just had to let you know that I feel that your portrayal of Booth was completely in character. It's easy to think that he's not the person he was when he was a sniper, but he still is that man, at least in some form. I think you handled it very well. Now, with that said, I'm off to read more.

I've been completely hooked by this fic... unfortunately, I've given myself a cliffhanger by reading this far and having to go now without being able to read any further. Fortunately, I found this story after it's completed so I won't have to wait as long as the other readers had to. Time constraints prevent me from reviewing more thoroughly, but I promise to be more in depth when I come back to finish.

Great story/romance/suspense so far.

wow what a mamouth effort that was brilliant I hope you write more multi chapter stories sand that is finished. May be a sequel? please

I am enjoying this a lot, but now that it's no longer a WIP, it really should be edited down to fewer chapters. It would flow much better with longer sections, and good subtle editing would keep the suspense. I also find that clicking from chapter to chapter pulls me out of the story.

This was an excellent story! I stayed up until 3:00 am reading the whole thing, including the alternate ending, which only game two hours of sleep before tackling a very busy work day (with swollen eyelids from crying).

I laughed and I cried, and I held my breath, and my blood pressure rose and my heart was pounding, and what can I say... Wow!

I appreciate the amount of research you did on a variety of things. It showed in a good way.

The only thing I wasn't too fond of was the excrutiating detail in some areas like the guns, shooting techniques, etc. I guess I'm a Tessa, not interested in those things.

I look forward to reading more of your stories.

Really great fic. What can I say that hasn't already been said?

I thought you nailed Booth most excellently - Brennan was pretty good most of the time - maybe just a little too 'girly' on occasion, but hey, I'm clutching at straws here, because on the whole, she was great.

Loved the action sequences - heart in mouth stuff all the way. Research and finite detailing makes it all seem so much more real.

Basically - I just loved this. Really hope you're writing more.

THANK GOD!

I have this story on my list-of-ff-to-read for a while now and finally I read it. What can I say besides it's really great.

At first I thought it was just another story, but at one point, it just became so real. And with all the references and pics on LJ.

You did a great job in it.

End of chapter 23 and you so have me crying! Really I am blown away and could read this all day. Only have time for like 2 more chapters. I do editing and research for novels and screenplays. Im working on a second run at a screenplay that is getting some good reception at Cannes for one of my authors and it is nowhere as good as this. I hate to have to go read anything else!

Going on to Chpt 21! - Awsome scenes from 17-20. I think you have kept Booth in character very well. His thoughts while setting up and taking the shot. Right on! Extremley well done! The research you have done is also amazing.

I am on chapter 17 and really loving this story. I had to go read your bio to be sure, but it is so cool to read from a man's perspective! You have done really well with the female aspects as well. I love all the detailed information about weapons and am very impressed you do not have a military or FBI background. At this point I strongly suggest you submit some of your work to a publishing house. Print it out and send it in. No harm no foul! Let me know if you need help with a copyright before hand. You may have to change the names in this one unless Reichts will give you permission. On to chapter 18!

Hey it's me again. I finally finished. I love love how this ended. Zack is such a dork. And B/B is the bomb

hi me again. I've got to the and wow. still a great story. nearly screamed when she let him break down in the hospital and just stared at him - how cold! - no matter how scared she was she shouldn't have done that he'd been through too much to have to go through that.

glad she went back after he told her to leave and everything was ok in the end.

the ending did seem a bit dissapointing just leaving them in hospital and the guys at the lab as if nothing had happened.

enjoyed the whole fic. just printed off the changes you've done - look forward to reading them too and I'll try and review.

thanks for a great fic
