Awww...

while I can understand her embarrassment, she uh, didn't handle that very well.

Poor Edward!!!



Author's Response:

Nope, she most certainly didn't.  But I'm hoping now that you've read 18th floor balcony that you understand a little more about Bellas psyche and how she put herself out there just a little bit by speaking out loud what she was thinking and how it came right back to bite her and embarass her, which once again, in her eff'ed up mind confirmed that she didn't deserve him, or them for that matter.

Thanks so much for the review!

Reviewer: jaaykayy (Signed) · Date: October 10, 2009 06:33 PM · On: Amazing Grace

wow i love your story. i recently began reading it and couldnt stop to review.

i cant wait to see whats coming next. <3



Author's Response:

Thanks!  I'm glad you're enjoying the story...next chapter is going up shortly, I'm just about done with it!

Reviewer: fionia (Signed) · Date: October 09, 2009 11:18 PM · On: I Was Broken

A fantastic story! Please keep writing!



Author's Response:

Thank you!  I'm just about done with the next chapter, although I may have to post it as two chapters because its HUGE...but if I do, they will be back to back...

Reviewer: Lead69 (Signed) · Date: October 05, 2009 03:26 AM · On: Amazing Grace

A great chapter the growth in their relationship slow and steady but more so foundation forming.

Just gotta love Hope she can just see through the crap and tell it how it is.

Looking forward to your next chapter.

 



Author's Response:

thanks!  I'm glad you enjoyed the update!  Yeah...Hope is special.  No holds barred on that one.

Thanks for the review!!

Reviewer: Twilightedaddict (Signed) · Date: September 30, 2009 11:42 AM · On: Amazing Grace

I'm so sad to get to the last chapter of your story.  I love the slow pace you've set--the way Bella and Edward are gradually opening up to e/o, first with friendship, though its clear its becoming romantic.  I love your Edward--so thoughtful and sensitive--his small touches are incredibly sexy too.  As far as the romance/affection stuff goes, you've mastered the less is more, b/c just the slightest touch gives me goosebumps.

Hope that Bella can be brave enough to find her redemption and move past the hurt as Edward has.

Look forward to your update.

By the way-- Amazing Grace is one of my favorite songs in the world--I walked down the aisle to it :-)



Author's Response:

:-) Thanks for spending your time with me and my story!  I'm working on the new chapter and hope to actually have it finished by Tuesday maybe if soccer games permit!

Yeah...Edward is a sly one...he's all causal and slow, then whammy...there he is...all sexy and kissing peoples foreheads...so wrong!  he makes me catch my breath when I'm writing it... I have to stop and say...whoa...that would kill me.

Yeah...Amazing grace owns me...just owns my soul.  Walking down the aisle to it must have been great...

Reviewer: Esquire (Signed) · Date: September 29, 2009 07:14 PM · On: Amazing Grace

WOW.  That discussion about Laurie had me tearing up. It breaks my heart that that young girl is going to die. :((((((  And I don't recall....where the hell is her family???  And what happened with Jacob? I'm guessing he fell in love with someone else? Were he and Bella together, or did she just hope? Sad that Edward and Bella lost their parents so young...and Hope's family is either gone or AWOL, which may be worse....I wish Hope had something curable so they could be a family. Sigh. I have a fear that we're going to read about her passing, and it's going to be dreadful. :(

I hope Edward has a lot of patience - he's gonna need it with Bella. I must say, he's pretty sly about courting her...well, sly to Bella, at least. We all know what he's up to. :) I laugh at Hope's matchmaking attempts - she's quick like a fox. Think she'll share her cake with Edward? I'm betting he can wheedle a slice or two out of her.

Squee on Bella's Ipod! Wonder what tunes he's picked out for her? that is SO personal....I remember making mixed tapes for people I had crushes on, wondering if they'd "get" it.....gah, I'm old. :)  Bet Hope has never even SEEN a cassette!!

I hope Bella realizes that she's not living, and Dancing Charlie wouldn't want her to live like she is. 

Thank you for the epic update!!  Tell McDreamy that I will love on him until Bella does ;)



Author's Response:

So many people have said the Laurie conversation had them teary...I'm shocked!  I'm glad it brought out that kind of emotion in you, it was an ah ha moment for me...at 3 am...

Hope doesn't have a family, she was abandoned at the hosptial as a baby, when she was sick after being diagnosed.  She's lived in foster homes and hosptials all her life.

Jacob's story is coming out slowly, we've actually gotten quite a few peices.  He and Bella were together when he met Ryleigh, who he's now married to.

Edward is being sly and it's working!  he's wormed his way into her life in all aspects now, lets just hope she lets him stay!

I've thought of doing a Bella's iPod play list so we can see what he's put on there...I'm going to have to think about that one since you're not the only one who's asked that!

Thanks so much for your time and your review, both make me equally happy!

Reviewer: RedRedRed (Signed) · Date: September 29, 2009 07:50 AM · On: Amazing Grace

Hey this is such a good chapter they are getting so close and bella and edward are both coming out of their shells and its so great poor poor hope



Author's Response:

Hi Red...thanks so much.  I'm glad you liked the chapter, it was nice to write something not so ANGSTY!!  Is the angst ride over??  I'm going to go with a no there but I think there will be bouts of relief!

Reviewer: fionia (Signed) · Date: September 28, 2009 09:31 PM · On: Amazing Grace

Keep writing:)!!! You are an excellent storyteller !



Author's Response:

wow, thank you very much!  I'm glad you're enjoying the ride!

Reviewer: msj2779 (Signed) · Date: September 28, 2009 08:39 PM · On: Amazing Grace

I adore this Bella and Edward relationship. I think I have mentioned in a past review how a pet peeve of mine is when E+B are thrown together, fall in love and utter the "I Love you"s after knowing eachother for 24 hours.  We all know that the characters of E+B have a "spark" and a natural chemistry but there has to be more than that to be completely in love in a matter of days.  That is why I ADORE this story.  Everything falls into place perfectly, and they are getting to know eachother before proposing.  The only flaw I find with this story is that I can't get enough, fast enough.  I'm sorry...I'm f-ing selfish that way.  I guess good things come to those who wait.  Keep up the fantastic work!



Author's Response:

Thank you so much.  I've tried very hard to make this story realistic and not a love fantasy where the magical guy or girl comes and heals all your woes...I'm glad you're enjoying where it's going and how it's getting there.

I'm sorry I can't update quicker!  I really wish I could!!  I am 2200 words into the new chapter already if that helps any!!

Reviewer: Jamiejo7984 (Signed) · Date: September 28, 2009 07:12 AM · On: Amazing Grace

I loved Hope's outlook on Luarie's character from LW. AND the fact that Edward & Bella are going to be spending Chrismas together; like they should! :D



Author's Response:

:-) Thanks!  I'm glad you liked it!  I hope you like the next one just as much!

Reviewer: lobsters4ever (Signed) · Date: September 27, 2009 11:42 AM · On: Amazing Grace

Another amazing chapter.  I love seeing Bella moving forward.  I loved how she described the tide moving her throughout this chapter.  That was brilliant. 

One of my favorite Bella moments was when she was remembering her parents and she thought: "I watched the tear as it cascaded down my cheek.  I wouldn't dare wipe it away; it would be traitorous to remove the only happy tear that flowed out of the thousands of miserable ones."  So beautiful and touching.

I swear, I can never get enough of Bella and Edward together.  Seeing their relationship, now, is incredible, especially knowing where they started.  And the UST is ridiciulous.  It is off da hook!! ;)  My stomach was in knots and I stopped breathing too, every time Edward whispered in her ear!!

Hope is so phenomenal!   She is brilliant and so insightful.  Hope is truly wise beyond her years.  Have you ever thought about doing an outtake from Hope's POV?  I would love that!

Great job!  I am so looking forward to the next chapter!!

 

 

 



Author's Response:

Wow, thank you!  I loved the tide analogy also...it just seemed to fit with the movement of the chapter.

Yes, the UST is getting a little heavy!!  I try to imagine it in my head as I'm writing it and the bookshelf...that was really intense...

Edward is there, but he knows she's not...but in the next chapter Edward is thinking to himself that no one has ever really pushed Bella...and he's right...lets see how much he can push her and whether or not she's stay!

Hope...I've thought about doing an outtake with her...I'm not totally against it, in fact maybe I'll see what I can come up with...although I'm not sure I can do her justice.

The song for the next chapter is 18th floor balcony by Blue October.  That song has been haunting me since I started this fic...I listen to it on loop when I write...it's perfect!

Thanks for sticking with me and also for leaving a review!

Great chapter. I love Hope. How does a fourteen year old girl hold so much wisdom? I'm glad she shared it with Bella. I'm glad Edward and Bella both shared some of their pasts. I like how they are both growing and opening up. Can't wait to read more. Please update soon.

Author's Response:

Thank you!  I'm glad you liked it!  Hope...to me...she just sees through all the bullshit.  When you know you don't have time, you just don't humor the bullshit.  We will continue to see Bella and Edwards past...next chapter is HUGE in revealing some of the driving factors behind our Bella and Edward.

Wonderful chapter! I loved Hope's thoughts on Laurie. She really is amazing. Can't wait to read the next chapter!



Author's Response:

Thank you! I'm glad you liked the update!  I can't wait to write the next chapter so hopefully it will be up soon!!

Reviewer: booklover08 (Signed) · Date: September 26, 2009 06:36 PM · On: Amazing Grace

wow, thanks so much for this big chapter and this story is sooo good and so full of the grace of learning to see the truth of life - esp through the eyes of a young girl whose life is going to end - (as one who works in cancer care, I can truly relate to what is real in life and what is just extraneous...) so just wow, I so much love this story!! thanks again for writing!  ;)



Author's Response:

Wow, thanks for the great review!  Your words are just too kind.

Thank you so much for not only reading but taking the time to leave a review...I truly do appreciate each and every one.

Reviewer: icrodriguez (Signed) · Date: September 26, 2009 06:30 PM · On: Amazing Grace

The slow and sweet seductive pace of this story is as wonderful as ever. That Edward and Bella are finally beginning to open up to each other is a very much welcoming sign of the hope that lies ahead. 

I am so loving the beautiful, my dear. Loving it completely.

Sigh....



Author's Response:

Slow sweet suduction...wow, that's awesome!  Mind if I use that??? 

Thanks so much for the review!  I appreciate it!  I'm glad you liked the last chapter!  I hope you like the next one too!

Reviewer: wendeline (Signed) · Date: September 26, 2009 04:29 PM · On: Amazing Grace

Author's Response:

I am, I am!!  I've already gotten nearly 1,000 words of the next chapter done.  I'm hoping it's a much quicker turn around than the last one!

I'm glad you're enjoying it! 

Reviewer: justafan (Signed) · Date: September 26, 2009 01:58 PM · On: Amazing Grace

I read this on FF. AMAZING! that's what this story is. I love your Bella, Edward, and Hope. Your chapters are all worth wait for, so you take as long as you want.



Author's Response:

Thanks so much!!  I'm glad you understand!! I'll try to get the next one out extra quick...the next few chapters are just...well, they're huge for me and I can't wait to get them done.

Reviewer: viola cornuta (Signed) · Date: September 26, 2009 01:10 PM · On: Amazing Grace

this was one of the first stories I started on my twific exploration, so it has always haunted me--I'm glad they (and you!) are back!



Author's Response:

Really?? I was one of your first??  Wow!  That's so cool for me!  I remember my first also, I'm so flatterd to have that place in someone!

Thanks for sticking around with me!  I know I suck at the whole update thing, but I really do try!!  I'm hoping the next chapter is a fairly quick turn around!!

Reviewer: Babette (Signed) · Date: September 26, 2009 12:53 PM · On: Amazing Grace

This chapter was incredible.  For the first time I feel a glimmer of hope that the past can be overcome as they work together for a happy future.  Edward is so incredibly sweet in his pursuit, and she is so lovely in her opening up to him.

I fear for Hope.  I get the feeling she will be leaving us soon.  I do believe that she will be instrumental to bringing them fully together and forming their own family. 

Thanks for writing!



Author's Response:

Hope will always bring them together.  She will be a tie that will bind them forever, no matter what.O

I'm so glad you enjoyed the update!  I'm glad you can also see the light at the end of the tunnel, it's nice to not have it so angsty!!

Thanks for the review!!

Reviewer: Missa (Signed) · Date: September 26, 2009 11:56 AM · On: Amazing Grace

It's nice to see Bella beginning to make progress in her life. I love seeing her with Hope. Edward should probably be very afraid. ^_^



Author's Response:

Oh yes, I think Edward is a little worried.  He says they're his two favorite ladies but they're quite the pair.

I love the interaction with them, it's been fun to write!

Thank you so much for the review!  I appreciate it!

Reviewer: campcathryn (Signed) · Date: September 26, 2009 11:17 AM · On: Amazing Grace

Thank you so much!!  I'm glad you're enjoying the story!

Reviewer: Merrisol (Signed) · Date: September 26, 2009 10:38 AM · On: Amazing Grace

This really is a thought-provoking story. We all have our crosses to bear, our burdens to carry. It is rare to find someone who has been in the same place you are. Seeing the world through a child's eyes is always amazing to me. I have a 16-year-old son who sees the world the way Hope does. He amazes me every day. This story is painful to me because I am them. My parents didn't die but they might as well have been dead. You bring to life what those feelings were for me as a child. I look forward to seeing how this plays out; how they can hopefully heal and complete each other.

Edward is so genuine in this story. I wish they really made men that way. Marriages would last a lot longer.

I am thoroughly enjoying this story. I would like to know the titles and songs if you don't mind. I'm enthralled and actually find something almost healing about it. It makes me cry but it feels good.



Author's Response:

I agree with every single thing you've said!  Hope is almost, very losely, inspired by my oldest daughter.  She see's things in such an original way, so unique, she's an ancient soul stuck in a teenagers body and it's wonderfully beautiful.

I understand where you're coming from and I'm flattered that although the story is painful for you you're continuing on with it.  I beleive everyone has the ability to overcome their mistakes and their past.  We are flawed, every single one of us and we have to decide whether we're going to let our pasts define who we are or drive us to become something more.  It's a story about personal growth...I've tried so very hard to keep it as realistic as I can.  I know it's killed some people with the pacing but I had to fight to keep it honest and true.

I think there are men like Edward in this world, but I think they're guarded too...you have to work to build trust in an individual and then a couple and it's a process...you can't be to quick to give up!  Edward has finally found the one he won't give up on.

I have the entire play list if you'd like it.  It's on my fanfic profile which I'll attach right below:

http://www.fanfiction.net/~tnuccio

The entire play list with songs and artists are listed there and the song for the next chapter is 18th Floor Balcony by Blue October. That song has haunted me since the day I started this fic.  It's PIVOTAL to the story.  I can't wait to get the chapter finished.

Your words have touched my heart and I can't thank you enough for the amazing things you've said.  I'm so very happy that the story has touched you on a personal level.  There is no greater gift I could ask for.

If the link doesn't work or anything, just send me a PM and I'll be happy to send you all the songs.
