Have I mentioned yet that I am REALLY liking this story? Can't wait for more.

Awww, thank you very much. I'm very flattered.

It’s definitely an order, and while the commandment may not come from the heavens above with a bolt of lightening or preceded by a burning bush, Billy has no doubt that it is written in stone.


you have a wonderfully subtle sense of humor, that never fails to make me laugh. your little crack comparing working with Ian and prison was gold. there's something very special in the quality and consistency in your writing. you manage to maintain the level of interest in the reader through out these deliciously long chapters. they have substance to them, plot, character development, the whole package. i love having to look beyond just the surface level to get to where the heart of the story lays.

in this chapter, i definitely picked up on Dom's vulnerable side. whether due to his fear at being replaced on his team, or being forced to put forth a persona that's not really him, just to keep his name in the papers, you showed he's not just a shallow pretty face. He wants Billy's good opinion, and if he cares what Billy thinks, then he's not impervious to the many slings and arrows that go his way. and Billy's adjustment to his new work routine (with a side helping of Ian and Orli just for fun) was a hoot. hee. about 14 hours until another chapter. cool! :grin:


kerry =)

I'm a tomato with hair, thanks to you. Thank you very much, honey. I'm so flattered by your kind words. It's no secret that your comments never fail to touch my heart.

So you're loving the long chapters, yeah? Hee! I'm particularly fond of that prison crack. And you are right. Dom is much more than just a pretty face, with layers that have yet to be revealed. Dr's Ian and Orli? Hee! I adore them.

Thank you very much, sweetie. *hugs you*
