Well, Bella, you are probably going to make the acquaintance of the green-eyed stranger sooner than you think lol

This sounds like it will be interesting!

Great story with real characters and nice development. Thanks for sharing!

FFn wasn't posting my reviews, so I stopped and hoped they hadn't been lost just delayed. This review will be longer. I found this recommendation on story by shouldbecleaning or Mrs Brownloe...don't remember which one I was reading. It has been a very enjoyable read. You show Bella's strength very well, something that too many think isn't there in the original. So glad that she told Edward about that first confrontation with Mr Smith rather quickly. Lack of communication is the sore point in much of the original. The son's name was not a surprise, figured that one out as soon as Edward needed to figure out way to reveal his choice. Wondered about the middle name for daughter and that is excellent and fitting choice. Nice trip to France. Great idea starting school for the estate children. Glad that she had Lauren and Angela as friends. Rosalie was awesome in getting the pistol and taking care of Mr Smith. Bella was awesome in rescuing Emma. Neat use of Charles' shirts. Thank you for sharing this story.

oh Rosalie...and then her father...finally the tears in Edward's arms.
