Ah, this was so good! I love that even in the epilogue they are both still changing, especially Adelle. I love that! I think it's very true to the character. I'm just..in awe of this fic. I loved it!

Thank you so much for sticking with us all the way and for all the kind words.

Adelle has definitely come a long way from the woman of Chapter 1. She's certainly happier and that's good to see.

Epilogue=finished! Congrats! I have this bookmarked to read now that life is marginally less nuts.

Yay for having it done coinciding with a greater RL calm for you. Looking forward to hearing/reading what you think.

Read the FitzOsbornes books. Enjoyed them. Think my fav character is the guy who is the spy. Hmmmmm. Sensing a pattern.

This was an excellent epilogue! I love that Kate got a sister (and are now asking for a job), that Laurence gets teased by his men for being adorable and that Adelle and Laurence are still changing and adapting to their new life. Plus, Caroline finishing her mission was great as well.

I loved all of this (it was epic and amazing) and I am definitely going to miss it.

Once a puppy got tossed into the ring, I thought why not a little brother.

"That you can say fucking adorable with conviction is fucking adorable," is one of my favorite lines of the whole thing. Dom gets teased by his men and puts up with it (something he wouldn't have done at first, I don't think, other than by his close friends.

We felt like giving Caroline closure gave Adelle closure too, but also sent her a little bit adrift. I liked that Dom is vulnerable to Adelle and only to Adelle, even now. Him worrying that she was bored with him made me just a tiny bit sad.

Thanks for reading!

What a crazy ride! Huzzah to you both for finishing such a project!

Love what you did with Adelle as parent. She's happy with her life, but she's not a person to be satisfied with that kind of living. I think that with a lot of people, when they give characters children, they forget that these people are Heroes (or an equivalent of) and aren't the type to be able to just sit around playing house.

Indeed, Adelle needs more in her life and it's important that Dominic gets that too and knows that he and the girls (and perhaps puppy and boy) con't a full life make.

Thanks for much for all of the support and kind words. This was kind of a labor of love. morgan72uk had started it but had stalled a little bit. I tried to help and look what we did!!!! I'm proud of this and I'm glad others enjoyed.

Wow! It's all posted and finished.
Thanks to everyone who commented and my partner in crime Rogoblue for editing and posting. When I asked if she wanted to take a look at a piece I I'd started but got stuck with, I had no idea what would result.

I still both love & hate the place Adelle ends up - but that was kind of the point.

[rogoblue]

I think that you both love and hate it gives the whole thing a ring of realism and makes it important that Dominic still feels vulnerable (at least with respect to Adelle).

We actually did it! Whew!

Thanks for letting me have a look.:)
