oh my mother freaking gosh
she forgave him so fast!
nope- no, UNCALLED FOR!!!!
gaah. i know he saved her life. but give me a break. like, seriously? if he actually didn't stand her up then the accident wouldn't have happened in the first place.

sera is too forgiving
*stabs griffin*
hmm and i wonder what finn plans for sera?
-------------------
on a side note..
okay so i read a romance book that had a similar storyline to brier wood except different setting. like, guy meets girl who he hates instantly but hes got his judgement all wrong (from the past), and she's obviously a poor, broken girl that is DEFINITELY NOT the manipulative bitch he made her out to be. like, honestly?! GET REAL!

anyway, in comparison to this published romance book by a renowned author who has god-knows how many years 'experience', you definitely kick this so called writers ass. for one thing, you got mr male lead to woo davi ever so slowly following your climax over a few chapters.. whereas THIS BLOODY BOOK author got her female lead to forgive the evil male in just three pages. thats right, THREE PAGES!!!

okay i simply must say that i'm ranting here. but seriously? you kick ass. like, you kicked that bloody authors ass. i really hate it when characters forgive too easily. but meh.. my opinion anyway.

and aw, griffin's acting like a cute little boy around sera now. i have a feeling sera's more grown up than he is. hmm, i wonder where this will go..

I knew you wouldn't kill her off that quickly. Nice chapter, finally those two are slowly warming up to each other. :)

Oh no!!!! Geez what a sad cliffie. Both Griffin and Sera are such different characters. I'm totally into this story, so keep updating!!

I do love your work, my heart was tight in my chest at the end of the last chapter. I am very disappointed not to have a next chapter to go to, although I'm delighted at the same time to have something to look forward to. It's writing like yours that reminds people of the simple joy of reading.

Thank you for sharing this,

Yeah! Thats the exact same camera :D I really suggest that book rather than the movie, you really get inside Novalie's head. it's such a great story :D Aww I had hoped that Griffin would show up anyway... but man what a way to force him into her life lol! I do kinda agree with Brice, I could see how people could consider her kinda like a slut, but then she's not lol its hard to explain, I think it's the way you have her personality and the way she acts... love the story! I hope she'll be okay!

Another great chapter!!! Having Griffin watch her was a nice twist...as was the 2 hour wait. (I'm avoiding the car accident b/c though it was a twist, I'm not sure how nice it is until I see where you are going with it. I'll wait to comment until I'm sure that there is no death or lifelong vegetative state stopping the story.) The coffee date was cool though. I like how he surprised himself with his rudeness and how she surprised him by waiting. It was nice watching him realize how he could be mistaken about her. I also loved how he couldn't ignore the fact that he was raised a gentleman. I loved the awakening he had during his try at stalking. I look forward to the next chapter, but I understand your November commitment. Please update when you can and as often as you can.

Hey! This is Laura from fp,

I went and found your email on on your profile and sent this same message to that e-mail but I don't know if you use that so I wanted to review so you'd definitely see it. I wanted to attempt to contact you. I currently can not even get on fp. I don't know why and I don't know if it's just me or everybody but I just can't get on! If your profile e-mail is used by you I'll send you the documents over this until fp is up again (which could be any minute for all I know) but I just wanted to make sure you knew that I wasn't just like gone! I don't know what to do.. :/

Anyways, reply back so I know and can send things your way! And hopefully fp will start working for me soon...

Thanks, Laura!

I'm loving this story. Sera is so different and unique. She has flaws and is insecure, but she is so strong. I love the way she handles him, whether it is dealing with the business and her car or getting him to accept a coffee and a thank you. She is definitely a character that I am looking forward to learning more about. I can't wait to see how she changes when she brings Griffin into her world.
