Alright, I must sleep. I'm definitely hooked to your story and can't wait to keep reading, but at this point if I don't get sleep I'm going to look just as sleep deprived as Bella. 

Thanks for writing!

Author's Response: I apologize that it has taken a few days for me to respond. I've been on vacay in the mountains without any internet access of TV. I hope you've caught up with your sleep. thanks so much for reading and reviewing ----- <3 Deanna (ilovealion) EPOV of PR

I haven't reviewed yet, although I always mean to, becauseI have just been pushing through these chapters because I am so curious. I am definitely hooked! 

 

Thanks for a great read. I love the partnership and how it adds to the two view points. 

Author's Response:

Thank you, ma'am. Initially, we got some complaints about the two points of view. I think people were scared they were going to get a lot of repeats. We've tried to be careful about that. Bella and Edward do so much separately, even when they're together. It's difficult to write two POV and maintain distinct personalities. This way, we both get to have fun writing and plotting out the story. I wouldn't be surprised if we've each spent >1,000 hours on this story!

thanks,

i know he has that cell phone now, but he has to worry about bugs in the house and car. i love how he told Rose off :)

Author's Response: Thanks so much for the review. He knows about the other bugs. He bought the "other" phone so that he can call/text Emmett. I'm so glad you're enjoying the story. ------<3 Deanna (ilovealion) EPOV of PR

Wow... that would be more than a little shock, can't wait to see the Alice grill that happens, although it sounds like we might not. Poor Bella, Rosalie isn't taking it easy on her...

Author's Response:

I haven't totally decided whether or not she's going to rake Alice over the coals. So much will happen so fast in the chapters that follow, that little incident may seem insignificant in comparison.

Rosalie sees it as Bella's fault that she, Emmett and Edward are still caught up in the LaVerrot scandal. Rosalie would probably feel better if she had her a big ole piece of Emmett. For Rosalie's sake, i wouldn't want Mr.Cheney to know that.

Thanks for reviewing!

Poor Bella it's bad enough she was abused but for it to have been a family member that even worse :(  not sure I understand the wanting to control the females periods??? is it to control when, and who with, they can have a baby??? Can't wait for more!!!!!!!

Author's Response:

There are a lot of reasons behind the vitamins and the menstrual suppression. If I tell you much more, I would give a whole lot away!

Thanks for reviewing!

Well there you go... what a sweet chapter of family dinner, although telling Bella about Emmett and that the place is bugged might have been a bit shocking. Thanks for writing :)

Author's Response:

Thank you, ma'am. We couldn't have an Edward that didn't tell Bella the truth about everything. He has to protect her. That's his job, right?

Another great chapter!!! I love how Edward and Bella's relationship is unfolding. Both are sexually attracted to the other but for the most part they are both holding back. My question is does anyone else besides Bella, and whoever attacked her, know about what happened to her ? I'm sure Edward is going to be jealouse of Jake. I hope they get some good alone time while in Forks since they won't have to worry about being spied on or over heard by anyone, maybe a lemon or two :):) LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT UPDATE!!!!!

Author's Response: Thanks for taking the time to review. I'm so glad that you appreciate our character development and the slow burn between Edward and Bella. It would not be plausible for our characters to just hop into bed. ---- Bella never told another soul about what happened to her. She will tell someone in the near future. ---- Jake and Bella have a sibling-type love for one another. There is no romantic connection there, but Edward will still question her about his intentions. Jake and Edward will realize that their mutual love for Bella will demand that they do whatever they can to protect her. ----- E&B will grow closer while they're in Forks. ---- see ya in two weeks. I'm on vacay in the mountains next week. ---- <3 Deanna (ilovealion) EPOV of PR

Home home crazy town, where to next?

Author's Response: Yep, back to crazy town. Next stop... Forks. ----- Thanks for being a consistent reader and reviewer. We appreciate you. ----- Deanna (ilovealion) EPOV of PR

Poor guy doesn't know what hit him... sorta literally...

Author's Response: He's so sweet, I think, in the way he handles it. He's confused and upset, but not furious and raging. ---- You're almost caught up, sweets. ----- <3 Deanna (ilovealion) EPOV of PR

Volterra

LaVerrot

El Travor

Taverol

Author's Response: Yep... they'e all linked somehow. *cue Twilight Zone music* Glad you're enjoying it. ----- <3 Deanna (ilovealion) EPOV of PR

Aww, his girlfriend. sweet :)

Author's Response: Yep. He likes Bella, a lot. ---- <3 Deanna (ilovealion) EPOV of PR

Author's Response: Thanks for the review. Poor Edward is the King of awkward moments. lol ----- Deanna (ilovealion) EPOV of PR

Well there bella... at least she gets Alice, although that also comes with tanya. Yikes, what a bunch of crazies.

Author's Response:

Carmen is very crazy. It's no act. Some things are not as they seem. Carmen is the real deal.
