Author's Response:

Hey Mesia. Thanks so much for reviewing and rating. I really appreciate it. Hmmm, a V person?? We'll see soon. :)

Amazing as always! You aren't the only one who has been slacking. I just got married, graduated college, and got a new job in a new country! But things are finally settling down, so I'm back to writing and reading. Your story was first on my list of checking up on! Still wonderful! Love it. Excellent dinner scene, I love that you can keep the smut from getting boring and bland. Also always glad to see your recommendations!

Ummm, Totty, do I need to point out to you that if you've recently gotten married, graduated from college, moved to a new country, and gotten a new job you aren't exactly slacking. Congratulations!! So, did you bring the wolfies with you? How are they doing?

Thanks so much for reviewing and rating, girl. I really appreciate it. Did you read the chapter with Carmen's party? I wanted to make sure it wouldn't offend the NA community. Since you have special connections, I was wondering if you had any thoughts? 

Although, you've already written Ch. 8, I did want to review for you. I love the humor that you infuse in your story. I love how both Bella and Jacob are completely blind to what everyone sees. This allows everything to grow on them and allows them to understand it all on their terms! I am also glad that you have Leah as a strong woman who is over Sam and Emily and is looking for what she wants on her terms. Love it!!

P.S. I do want the "vagina exploding picture of Jacob". I love that phrase and it had me laughing for qute awhile.  I just didn't want you to think that I was all about the picture and not the story.

I love how you write jake, kind and sweet but also a bit macho and swearing. The perfect mix. I can't wait to see how it all comes together. 

Author's Response:

Hey Glenda! I'm glad you like him that way. To me, that's the way a real man is--at least one that I want. ;) 

Uh, I certainly do not live up to that description you wrote about me right now. (sick, tired and frustrated are just a few of my excuses and they are just that, excuses and I'm so sorry...but I'll be back to earn that title of 'one of the best reviewers, friends a girl/writer could have'.

Love ya tons always.

Author's Response:

Honey Bunny, what's the matter? I'm so sorry you're not feeling well. Anytime you want to talk I'm always here for you. You maintain your title anyway, you know. One of your sweetest gifts is that regardless of what's going on in your life, you always take the time to be kind and generous to everybody else. :) 

Amazing :)

Author's Response:

Thanks! :D

i love this story :) .. i am completely hooked!! hope you update soon

Author's Response:

Thanks, sweetie, for reviewing and rating! I really appreciate it. Chapter 15 is in full production, and it's probably halfway finished. Paul is being a real poop to deal with. :/ So what's new?

Omg nice cliff hanger that was a ggrrrrreeaat chapter and Jake is verry naughty if you ask me i mean idk how bella held back her moans Nx that mama tunde person probably knew what was up lol cant wait cor the next chapter!

Author's Response:

Yep, I'm thinking Mama Tunde knew exactly what was going on. She's waaaay too smart not to. I'm so glad you enjoyed the chapter, sweetie. (Oh, I think Bella made a little more noise than she realized ;)

Thanks so much for reading, reviewing, and rating, Jackie! I appreciate it soooo much!

LOL....a very good wow

Author's Response:

Whew.  :D

Maybe Edward is there? That would be a big shock XD

Author's Response:

Yeah, that'd shock the hell out of me too! ;) Thanks for reviewing and rating, Anna!

Ah Leelator, after a hiatus I'm back and have stumbled across your story.  Have to admit I love it, and I'm more of a B/E person!  Love the teaching moments you add.  As always looking forward to the next chappie!

Author's Response:

You, YOU, labrattus are an EDWARD fan?? Girl, I'm one of your biggest supporters. I ADORE A Life Lived, particularly the Bella deflowering scene with Jake while Edward listens in like a sleazy creep. Soooo sexy. I had a feeling you were going to break my heart in that one, you little dickens! Anyway, you are a fantastic writer. How is the new baby? (Btw, thanks so much for taking the time to review. I really appreciate it.)

As always, I ABSOLUTELY adore your story and was so excited to see a new chapter up; it was like Christmas came early!!  You are 1 truly amazing writer!!  This chapter made me laugh so hard - my husband just shook his head and muttered something about "werewolf SMUT".  I blushed like an innocent schoolgirl during that restaurant scene but absolutely loved it and had to re-read it again (88blushing again**).  My goodness I can't wait until Bella & Jacob actually do it - a cold shower may be in order. 

Pretty please post another chapter soon - I can't wait to find out what's happened next.

Author's Response:

Awww, you are so sweet, Char! Thanks so much for reading AND reviewing AND rating!

Umm, "werewolf SMUT"? Guess you better keep him away from this chapter, huh? You know, husbands need to encourage us to read and write our werewolf smut because they always reap the rewards. Glad you got a kick out of it, anyway.

So I was working on Chapter 15 when I got this notice and happily took a little break from Paul being a MAJOR PAIN IN THE ASS. *rolls eyes in disgust* Sometimes that boy really strafes my last nerve! *mutters irritably and stomps off to kick Paul in the nads again*

My family thinks I'm insane...I was laughing so hard when Bella was trying to find a "weapon" I fell out of my chair! Ane then she blinds Jake with bleach! LMFAO!  Soooo funny!

That was the best appetizer I've ever read!

Just so we are straight, you take me from being uneasy about the Voluri, LMAO over the lack of wepons and having to change my panties so I can write this review.  I think I'm set for the night...hmmmmm for some reason I'm hungry for italian food.... 

This story is one of the best, keep up the fantastic work, take care, Dixie

Author's Response:

Honey bunny, you are so sweet! (You didn't really fall out of your chair, did you?) *cough giggle giggle cough* Sorry about the changing panty issue. 

Bella really was out of control in this chapter. She told me that if vampires showed up she was damned if she was just going to hide out in the bathroom any more. Then I tried to sit her and Jake down for a nice, quiet little dinner in Florence, and she absolutely would not keep her hands to herself. You can see that everything went straight downhill from there! ;p 

How have things been going? It's wonderful hearing from you. Thanks so much  for being such a loyal and patient reader, Dix, and for rating and reviewing!

Hugs,

Lee
