Seriously - could you write a better best friend than Jasper in your story? He is SUCH a good character!

So enjoyed the update - thank you! I love the progress Bella is making and how supportive & sweet Edward is. Really enjoyed Jasper's POV too and what he notices has changed for the better too. (and especially when the conversation gets embarrassing for him!)

Thanks for the update.  I loved what Edward left for Bella.  He is so sweet.  I also loved Jazz telling Jacob how it is.  Perfect. 

Great chapter! I love the deep feeling and your captivating writing style.

Jasper is the best friend ever. I'm jealous of Bella ;)

Yeah I am so glad this is continuing. Thanks for writing I love it

I'm so glad i finally started thisstory! i already read your stuff with naelany, so i knew this would be lovely as well.

I like the mystery around Bella's past, and the way Alice is clicking with her, not demanding too many answers. The relationshiip between B and Jasper is sweet.  Well done!

On to the rest! I'lltry to slow my rolland remember to review!!  When it'sgoo, tho,i just want to devour the story!

I really appreciated that in this chapter we got Jasper's view of what happened when Bella was raped and how profoundly he was hurt by the accusation that she had somehow made too much of it, or shouldn't have chosen Edward to be in love with...and how Bella sharing with him, having the time to actually spend time to reconnect with each other, is bringing him to have even more respect for Edward.  Also loved that he was willing to beat the tar out of Jacob, but held back on the principle of the thing.... this was such a good chapter and I am glad to see you back on the horse, so to speak!!  ;)

It was such a great surprise to get the email of your update. Thanks! I'm so glad you haven't given up on this unique and moving story. Edward is such a patient and wonderful guy and Bella is lucky to have him. Jazz too. Jake is a douche! LOL. Glad to see Bella keeps on getting stronger and hope poor Edward doesn't have to wait too long to, you know. LOL.

Welcome back! Another great chapter. Her prohress and her feelings about it, are so real and vivid. Thank you for telling this story!

Thanks so much for the update. I just love, love, love this story and can't get enough of the little steps of progress Edward and Bella make in every chapter.

I am sooooo happy to see that you updated!!! :-D

Great chapter, though I really missed Edward... :-( ... but I LOVED the Jasper POV; Bella and Jasper's friendship is just sooo sweet and perfect and I love the interaction between them!!

Ohhh and I really liked "the talk", Jasper's struggle to shut off his protective side of his brain and trys to hel Bella with her frustration.... I thought that part was written really, really good!! Just the right amount of awkwardness and sweet Bella and Jasper interaction!

Thank you for updating, Sarah!

Nice to see an update, and it was well worth it.

She really has made progress - slow but progress.

Jasper really should have just kicked Jake's ass. He's gonna cause more crap to fly later than not. Ah well at least Jasper will beat him down when that time comes.

Welcome back!  I hope you're ok (I know no details, so...)

Great chapter, although I wish Jasper -or ANYONE, really- had kicked Jake's ass. He's getting off waaaay to easily.  And he's going to be an on-going issue isn't he?  I really hate that mother fucker.

I did like the sleep over (and the Bee Gees!) and all the bonding, but of course I missed Edward.

Can't wait for more!
