Loved it, very sweet and tender!

Ignore the negative reviews.

Please remember this is YOUR story, in YOUR head - as long as you have it rated appropriately, delete the reviews that complain. I am all pro freedom of speech, but for you to be terrified to post bc of a bunch of people that want nothing more than what was in the original books (aka - fade to black) then there are many stories here rated G or PG that will be appropriate for them...and their are the orginal books.

BUT, please, many of us are reading this BC it is an adult story - several of my friends don't want to read SM's books again in FF form...so by catering to the graphic haters you are also disappointing those of us that ONLY read NC 17 work - and LOVE IT.

So, thank you for the lovely lemon. I am terribly sorry that a lot of narrow minded repressed people hurt you and made you doubt your abilities as a writer...please know that Edward and Bella do NOT need to be virgins for the rest of their existence in YOUR STORY! I give you permission to write your heart out - and delete the ones that cannot deall (or suggest they go back to their retentive book shelves and revamp the teen series, if that is what they want...)

Author's Response:

Thanks dear.  I just don't want to get so graphic that sex overpowers the story.  This is a love story, and sex happens.  Glad you liked it.  Thanks for being my "bouncer"--lol!

You got a negative reaction before? Goodness what did people think they were reading? If it was clearly marked they should know what they're getting into.

I thought this was lovely and tasteful. Very well done.

I LOVED that chpter, it was sweet and sensual, I don't think it was too graphic at all, but it did get the point or idea across! I can't wait for the next chapter!!! Your story is one of my absolute favorites!!!!! Keep it up!!!

Very tastefully done!  Great job!

 

 

that was great i love your story   please update soon

I thought that you did an awesome job with this chapter! I think the scene was tastefully done and honestly, I like a little maturity in their relationship! Looking forward to your next post!

LindyP :)

I thought the love-making scene was very tasteful and showed the love they have for each other. It wasn't unnecessarily graphic or objectionable. So, I thought you did a very nice job.

They finally did it!  Yaay!  And very tastefully done.  I wouldn't have minded a little more steam, but I understand you toning it down for those that are bothered by it.  That's actually very thoughtful of you! 

While reading the last few chapters, I find myself wishing that Edward wouldn't hold back so much and kiss her thoroughly like he used to! haha!  I know he's holding back to keep her from changing more but I'm looking forward to the day when he can kiss her that way again.  To me, the act is so intimate and it adds so much passion.  But, it's something to look forward to!  I'm worried about what you said in your Chapter end notes though about him holding back..."even if it might turn around and bite him"...that worries me.  I hope it doesn't!  Great job on this chapter!  Looking forward to the baseball game!  

Edward's being careful - I think i feel sorry for all the headboards that keep getting destroyed in these scenes... on the other hand, the company making them must be doing ok ;)

Baseball should be interesting with Bella partially changed as she is hehe

that was really good. i dont know why you were panicing. it is so sweet that edward still puts her first

Wow!  Loved the chapter.  It was great to read something sweet/romantic after some disturbing FanFic I have been reading the last couple of days..   I can't wait to read more.  Don't listen to the negative reactions, you are doing a great job and I LOVE reading your work!  Hurry up, get your tush in grear, and get the next chapter out.  :o)
