Wow!  So much happened in this chapter!  But I'm proud of Bella for realizing that she had time to figure things out.  Bruce's opportunity is very tempting, but it may not be right for her.  Edward may have gotten his dream job, but his real motivation to move to Seattle was Bella.  He's already sacrificed for her.  As for James, Bella better keep one eye trained on him at all times!  We all know he's scuzzy!   I love that Edward feels warm and fuzzy at Bella making a home for them and I love that he will not keep secrets from Bella.  Sorry that someone stole your words, some people can be so underhanded! 

Well, douchebag James won't be happy that Bruce doesn't consider him to be even Bella's replacement.  Maybe Bruce will compromise with Bella and open a Southern-themed restaurant in Seattle?  She has plenty of access to awesome Southern cooking through Esme....

I loved their reunion!  Too funny with Emmett almost breaking down the door, too!

Wonder how Edward will handle the news of Bruce's proposal?

Thank you for the update, Paige!  I was so concerned you wouldn't finish because of the jerks who stole from you.  I'm so sorry that happened! 

 

I loved the update, he was adorable coming to surprise her and I'm definitely looking forward to finding out just what Jasper's hiding. ;)

I SOOOO love this story.  The chapter was great.  Can't wait for the next one!

they are so sweet he ploting how to get her car and she thinking of putting aside a great deal for him.

Thank you for continuing this story over here.  I was so bummed when you took it down on fanfic, but i enjoyed this new chapter and hope to be able to read much more from you. 

cant wait for more

Totally didn't see Bella's job situation going in that direction, great twist.  Hmmm..... wonder what Jasper is hiding.......

hm...definitely curious about Jasper's secret, but I don't think it's something bad. The meeting w/ Bruce was great! I like that character a bunch. Can't wait for how Edward will react to Bella's new job opportunity. Good job!

Bwahaah I was wondering about the three of them showing up. I thought maybe it was after all that. Love Emmett. Love. :P

I am SO Sorry that happened to you, I swear, some people!  I love your story and am glad you got the "faker" removed!

I am anxious to see what Jasper is hiding from ALice!  Heehee!

Thanks--it was frustrating of course, but the level of support and offers to hunt her down and kick her ass have more than made up for it! :D Jasper's secret will be revealed right away in the next chapter.
