Ladies...this story is wonderful...love...romance...sex...plot
all the things that make for a excellent read...badsquirrel is my (I'm possessive) writer meaning I am her beta reader...and very proud of it...she is not only a superb writer, but a good friend...I would not rave about this story if it didn't deserve the accolades...I predict she will have another number 1 on her hands...do not let me be wrong...READ THIS...you can thank me later ...btw...I gave her an 8 on the spice index because I want her to put more sex in her stories...grin... - QMBG - Jul-15-2008   

What can I say that QMBG did not?? It is a great story, with only one major fault.... it ended!!! I could see this story going on for another couple hundred pages! Keep up the great work BS( i really mean badsquirrel, nothing else really!!)You really need to write faster, so I can read more!
Thank you QMBG for helping badsquirrel turn out a great read!
P.S. Was there enough more sex for you??? - Nancy - Jul-15-2008   

Once again, great stuff all around. Two thumbs way up! - Arassar - Jul-15-2008   

I have been waiting for what seems like FOREVER for my favorite Squirrel's new story, and it was worth it. This is a great one, and I can't wait for the next. Thanks BadSquirrel YOU ROCK - Anonymous - Jul-15-2008   

Couldn't stop reading until "The End". Great story. Loved it! Thank you :) - Anonymous - Jul-15-2008   

Yet another brilliant one by BadSquirrel! I was totally captivated and drawn into the story, so much so, that when I got to the end I felt extremely sad there wasn't more. This story is moving to the top of my list of favourites. I definitely recommend it and can't wait to see what's next. - Dogz - Jul-16-2008   

Great stuff, badsquirrel, great story, wonderful characters (everyone should have a Maggie in their life) and a cute little cameo with the Edgewater crew at the end - now where's that sequal! - dinasbran - Jul-16-2008   

Another great story. Ended up reading it in one sitting. Really liked the tie in with Edgewater. So when do we get the sequel...LOL - Lee - Jul-16-2008   

Extremely well written story, I hated for it to end. I can't wait for the next story this wonderful Bard puts out, because she knows how to do it right. She is going to be one of the best. - Netta - Jul-16-2008   

Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome.
Have I mentioned that this story is awesome?! Thanks for sharing Squirrel, it was impossible to put down. - Otter - Jul-17-2008   

That was FANTASTIC. Once I started reading it I had to keep going. I was actually anxious when I clicked on the link for the last part and saw the word 'Epilouge', I just didn't want the story to end. And I totally agree with the other recommendations,please, please, please post a sequel very soon, I just have to know what comes next and how much more they explore of their relationship. - Anonymous - Jul-17-2008   

You've done it again...OUTSTANDING!!!
When I'm looking for something to read and I pass by something that has BDSM as a theme, I usually keep looking. Not because I have anything against it -- other things to read about just usually interest me more. Well, I knew better than to consider for one second that there would be anything out there more interesting to read and I wasn't disappointed. Far from it. The same as with all of BadSquirrel's stories, the characters and their thoughts and emotions are incredibly funny and real and touching, and the way the story itself is told keeps the reader totally engrossed -- all the way to the end. I can't wait for the next story. - Sthpaw30 - Jul-17-2008   

You are by far my favourite author...please don't make me wait so long for your next story - Anonymous - Jul-17-2008   

again, you wrote another fantastic story. can't wait for more. - SP - Jul-17-2008   

Oh, this story ROCKS!! The characters are very well done, the stroyline is fascinating, the whole thing is just amazing! I can't wait to see if there's gonna be a follow on to this. Thanks for sharing this story with us! - Gwen - Jul-18-2008   

Another WONDERFUL story! You are one of the greatest writers out there right now! Just like all your other stories, this one has depth, heart, and beautiful character studies. You should be a published author! Keep writing, Please! - Rose - Jul-18-2008   

Great story! Had me cracking up all over the place. The big reveal? EFFING HILARIOUS!...I feel greedy for saying this but I definitely want more. BadSquirrel...you Rock and you Roll. - wrldpece - Jul-18-2008   

A totally awesome story! It just needs one thing, a SEQUEL!!! BadSquirrel, you do totally rock! - kymba - Jul-18-2008   

Wonderful!!! I thoroughly recommend this tale, it drew me in from the first line and the last line left me wanting more! Thank you, loved it! - Loll - Jul-19-2008   

BadSquirrel you are the cause of the dark circles under
my eyes.I stayed up all night reading this story,it was
soooo good I could not stop til I finished it, then I
was sad it ended. There needs to be a sequel.This is just
my opinion,but u r one my favorite writers. I highly
recommend this and every other story you've written.
OUTSTANDING! - DAB45 - Jul-20-2008   

Wow! As usual I am in awe! This should be on everyones must read list! Thank you BadSquirrel! - Jenner - Jul-20-2008   

Such a well written story, never read BDSM before, thought it violent, this has opened my eyes lol. Jordon is so sweet, oh how i wish. Thank you Bad Squirrel for sharing. [cant believe you are still looking. hehe........] - Lizzielee - Jul-20-2008   

The plot is well executed and the character development is superb. You'd be a fool not to read this gem. - Ryan - Jul-20-2008   

please, please, please make a sequel. I love this storyline. PLEASE> - F_L_J - Jul-21-2008   

Yet another awesome story from an incredible author. I will echo the comments above when I say "Sequel!" - Anonymous - Jul-21-2008   

A truly talented writer. I highly recommend reading this story. - Anonymous - Jul-22-2008   

spicy! - Anonymous - Jul-22-2008   

Read it. You will not regret it. Okay, when I first read the disclaimers and content section and saw that the story involved BDSM I was a bit reluctant. I am so not into pain, dominance or bondage. Call me squemish. I kept reading because everyone else seemed to be so taken with this story and I didn't want to miss something great. So, I read on, and on...and on. I loved this story. Do not let preconceptions stop you as I almost did. BadSquirrel did a wonderful job telling her story without once making me turn away, or squeezing my legs together. - Anonymous - Jul-23-2008   

An unusual and quite entertaining story. I'd love to see a sequel with Jordon/Sarah and Kelly/Hannah! That would be amaaazing. - cap - Jul-23-2008   

outstanding, beautiful story! - Kat - Jul-24-2008   

Love all your stories, but this one just begs for a sequel. And with all the threads you left hanging I can't imagine you aren't tirelessly working on one for all your devoted fans; the vacation, finding a new place, moving everyone, new job, Hannah&Kelly, FREDDIE and the new DOG!! Thanks for a great story and wonderful characters. - Titan - Jul-24-2008   

I've read all of the comments on here and decided to read it. All I can say is. . . WOW. It made me see a whole different side to a lot of things. You won't be disappointed if you read this. I'll bet you'll too would look at things differently. - Anonymous - Jul-24-2008

Would love to See more of them! - iceflamesburn - Jul-30-2008   

Two thumbs way up. I have loved every story written by BadSquirrel, and would highly recommend them to everyone. - Jules - Jul-31-2008   

Great, just the ending was a bit abrupt. Seems like an in-joke about another story. So now I *have* to read all the other stories of the author, twist my arm will ya :-). - Anonymous - Jul-31-2008   

This was one HELL of a read. The only bad thing about it was that it ended! I really hope a sequel is in the making. READ IT!! - Bacchuskiller - Jul-31-2008   

Wonderful story! Stayed up very late to read it all but it was worth it. Please keep writing!! - Shelley - Jul-31-2008   

Great story. Thanks, BadSquirrel for giving an full evening of entertainment. This story presents a different slant to the norm and does it well. I hope you plan a sequal, because I'd really like to see how Jorden and Sarah do in their new enviorment. - nljacksn - Jul-31-2008   

What a great story! - jen d - Aug-04-2008   

I've been looking around for a really good, kinda blow me away story and I found it in this. Great read. Hope a sequel will follow soon.
Who's Freddy?? - lyneX - Aug-14-2008   

fantastic brilliant story - Anonymous - Aug-15-2008   

I read this story first and then went back to read the other three in order of writing. I LOVE the way the characters in former stories are brought into the other stories. This tale has it all; love, angst, sex, life and did I mention LOVE? Superior writing at any level. badsquirrel's stories are a MUST READ for anyone who likes to have a sense of completion at the end of a story. I do wish, however, to read more of each of them. - Kaz - Aug-20-2008   

This is one of the best if not the best stories i've ever read it was SOOOOO GOOD - happycricket - Aug-22-2008   

So moving a story, its brilliant, utterley brilliant, but it just ends, this is the first story from this author i have read, i intend to read all of this authors stories. - LuvTigger71 - Sep-02-2008   

Real, honest, beautiful representation of plotty romance - eli - Sep-17-2008   

Wow...wow, wow-ee-wow
I stumbled across BadSquirrel by accident and fell in love.
First with Shine and Maureen..and then along came Robyn and Maryl. Meeting Jordan and Sarah was an incredible ride and I thank you for every moment. Hannah and Kelly were warm in an "aw-shucks" kind of way. This is the first time I've ever recommended a story but this author is SO good I'm gonna go ahead and recommend her NEXT one. Squirrel if you are not being published it's a crime. Kudos to your ever-faithful Beta-reader as well.
Please tell us you have something else in the works? Sequel? New characters? I'll take it!!!! - Tracy - Sep-18-2008   

Sarah and Jordan are great characters. I love how they discover and interact with each other.

Jordan, especially, is amazing. Such deep and complex a character totaly diserves a sequel. It would be shame to leave it to that.

I want to know how their relationship evolves. I want to know how life in Edgewater is for them.

Please give us a sequel ! - Anonymous - Sep-29-2008   

Excellent excellent story with a BDSM flare - Anonymous - Oct-07-2008   

Don't let the theme stop you from reading a truly amazing love story. I've always loved this writer, but she has just topped all tops! I am awe struck with the basic and primal beauty of this story. I really want to move to Edgewater! - shelby - Oct-28-2008   

I have read and enjoyed all of the work BadSquirrel has posted here and I have to say that Dark Side of the Moon is my favorite. The only thing that can make it better would be a sequel. This is definitely one of those stories where I just have to know what happens next. If you haven't read this story you are missing out. I really hope BadSquirrel checks out these comments. Please, please, please be working on a sequel...... - Anonymous - Nov-06-2008   

Oh wow...WOW!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE WRITE A SEQUEL.

Amazing. - Anonymous - Nov-06-2008   

WOW!!! What an amazing story. i loved it. it kept my attention and had me wishing there was more of it by the end...PLEASE write a sequal to it. - odessa - Nov-15-2008   

This story is absolutley AMAZING! - from germany - Nov-28-2008   

I love it MORE PLEASE - damere - Feb-13-2009   

Rather excellent. A little on the sappy side towards the end, but it was well deserved. Lesbianism, BDSM & genderbending presented in the form of tight and well written language. To ask for more would be plain greedy. I was thoroughly entertained by this story. - Ape - Feb-17-2009   

This story kept me up all night and well into the next morning... This is the first Badsquirrel story I've ever read and this has convinced me to read all of her stories... You are amazing! Thank you for sharing your wonderful gift! - Archer - Feb-23-2009   

3am people, 3am. I could not stop reading. Wonderful story, good characters and spicy. What more can I say. - Marcia - Feb-26-2009

I'm one of those people who don't like to read things twice, but i have read this story many times and am still interested. Well done BadSquirrel, i look forward to reading your other stories. - Anon - May-10-2009   

sweet jesus...that was just yum yum yummy. oh did i say that outloud. well anyways you have so got to read this, but keep an open mind, because some of this stuff is like way out there, or at least i think so. i actually had to research some of it, to see if it was real. but OMG it was awesome. just read it shit. - iheartpickles - Jun-10-2009   

This is one of the most amazing stories I've read in the past year or two. It's smart, funny, heartwarming, informative, tender, sexy... I felt for these characters the whole way through. I wish this was Spinal Tap so I could give this story an 11. - Revolos55 - Jul-25-2009

I've always put off reading this story because BDSM stories aren't usually my thing, but this one is different! It's romantic and has angst and I love the chemistry and portrayals of Jordon and Sarah! I would love to read a sequel! I'm so glad I finally read this story! - Anonymous - Sep-19-2009

This is the most intresting story I've ever read. I would indefinetly recomend this. I've read it atleast 6 times and it has yet to get old. - firelarc - Jun-21-2010

**** SPOILER ALERT **** I read Rumors first then went straight to this story. Both are incredible stories! I love that you incorporate characters from your other stories into others. I really hope there is a sequel in the works for this story because I am dying to know how everything is going. Who all decided to make the move with them, how they are getting along with the Rumors cast and if there will be grandchildren in the future for Maggie afterall. Please, please, please write a sequel! Please? I fell in love with the characters and I'm dying to read more about them and see what other trials and tribulations they may have to face :) - Marie - Aug-17-2010   

I loved this story and found it a very gentle one for all it's BDSM warnings. - Mina - Aug-23-2010

Loved this story! The author paints very realistic images with her words. - Mickey - Sep-19-2010   

This is an absolutely incredibly entertaining tale. I just couldn't stop reading it and when it ended, I like so many others who have read it, didn't want it to end.It definetly gets my vote for a sequel.So if you ever read these recommendations Bad Squirrel, Give us what we want. But seriuosly you are the bomb! Great work keep it up. - uber goober - Oct-11-2010   

Very nice story. I look forward to reading more of this authors work. - Duffy - Oct-15-2010   

First I didn't really wanted to read that story because of the main theme. But I'm very glad I did! After Shine and Rumors another great and beautiful story from that author! And I'm looking forward for a sequel ( or sequels ;-)). Thank you very much for sharing! - SwissGirl - Oct-19-2010   

Sequel, sequel...we want a sequel!
OMG, this was incredible. Fantastic job. I ignored my family to finish it! Excellent work, my friend. Thanks for adding to my day! (Hopefully my family will forgive me...then again, I haven't read your other works!) - Souzan - Oct-31-2010   

I want more!!!! This was fantastic, from the first sentence to the last!!!! I am curious about Freddie!!! I am hoping for a sequel!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome story. - Anonymous - Nov-01-2010   

I absolutely adored this story, read more than once and probably will read again.............and again
Highly recommend, curious about S&M now :) - Anonymous - Nov-02-2010   

I just read this again, and was again captivated. I stayed up until after 5am to finish reading. I laughed so hard at the closing sequence I thought I'd have an accident:
"Kelly pulled up her sleeve and made a very impressive muscle with her biceps. "Can you beat that?" "Nope." "Didn't think so," Kelly boasted. "But I can pee standing up." "She can," Sarah giggled. Kelly draped herself over Hannah's shoulders with a pout. "Tell me I'm still butch, baby." Hannah patted Kelly's arm as she winked at Jordan. "Feeling a little feminine?" "Yeah. And I don't like it. It's...ooky." - Souzan - Dec-19-2010   

I just love this story! This is my second reading and I'm sure I'll come back to it again. I just wish there was a sequel! - Bolly - Feb-03-2011

I've read Hannah and Kelly's story, and am now dying for a sequel where Freddie meets Jordan. If there were a way to give this 100% I would...Please keep up the good work! - Caralion - Mar-10-2013   

Thanks to a fellow reader's recommendation, Caralion, I decided to read this story and I am very happy that I did. Although I'm not into some the S and M things its really minimal and holds little bearing on the whole story. What made this story so amazing was how the author was able to portray all the emotions and break them down. Completely eye opening in all aspects and "aww shucks" romantic too! Please give this a shot! - Katie of Ohio - Mar-13-2013   

Exploratory and fun would definitely recommend - naked ninja - Mar-16-2013   

One of the best books I've read in a long time! I loved the characters and the story and I am officially hooked on BadSquirrel! I couldn't put this book down, I read it literally every spare moment I had until I finished it! It had the perfect blend of romance and sex and angst and just everything! It flowed seamlessly and was written just phenomenally! I couldn't get enough! I fell in love with the characters! Thank you, BadSquirrel, for an amazing read! :) - Brandi - Aug-27-2013

I liked Shine but this one story is even better. The character development is rich and wonderful. You really get a sense of the people and their personalities. Humor, heartache and longing make this a lovely read. More stories from this author would be a welcome treat. Yumm - Kali - Sep-18-2007   

Personally, I loved this story. I thought it was much better than Shine. It was witty, romantic, and filled with little nuggets of genuine insight. Hope to see more by this author :). - Oggie - Sep-21-2007   

A beautiful story! A great blend of humor, romance and heartache, wrapped in fantastic prose, and peppered with surprisingly insightful nuggets of wisdom. Highly recommended! - SS - Sep-24-2007   

I liked Shine, so I thought I check this one out. Great story....you'll be sad to see it end. - Anonymous - Sep-24-2007   

Great story number two. It was good to see Shine and Maureen again. This would make a good story for those just coming out. Take your time lessons, versus u-haul melodrama. I know we are going to get the chance to see Shine with Maryl and Robin's child. But then Robin has a wicked sense of humor, so she and Shine could get into a lot of trouble. I love Robin's mom and the relationship they have. Good read I look forward to reading more about this family. - gayzer - Sep-24-2007   

My favorite so far! I love stories that make me think about life and how it should be. Thank you for bringing back Shine and Maureen for a guest star appearance! - dawnsue541 - Sep-29-2007

Another great story wrote by Bad Squirrel ,well writen, the characters are well rounded and interesting. - Anonymous - Sep-09-2010   

BadSquirrel is a great author that writes incredibly wonderful stories. I absolutely get great enjoyment out of reading her tales. They are the type of well written stories that once you start reading them you just don't want to stop even when the story comes to an end. I highly recommend reading her work. - uber goober - Oct-13-2010   

A beautiful awesome written story. You felt all the emotions that Robin and Maryl went through. Heartache,humor and longing. A must read. - Kate281964 - Mar-28-2011   

i like this story One Good Memory...making me smile with all the fun serious meaning words. Robin, a truly womenly behaviour, where can i get this kind of women. How i wish i'm Maryl. BadSquirrel is truly talented. - zen - Jun-11-2011   

Good story. Very well written. I liked how Robin and Maryl worked at beginning their relationship, although Maryl did drive me crazy at times with her insecurity. I did like the banter, tenderness and passion between the characters too. Worth a read. - Lyn B - Jul-08-2011   

Absolutely love this story! This author always leaves you wanting more! - Anonymous - Jun-04-2013   

Really good. A must read. - Anonymous - Jun-13-2014   

Nice story from start to finish. Enjoyable - Anna28Carm - May-12-2017   

What an incredible talent this writer is!! This story is wonderful - funny, dramatic with a dash of angst to keep things interesting. I think this is my favourite story by Badsquirrel and Kelly is by far my favourite resident of Edgewater. Wish I lived there!!! - chatham23 - Sep-28-2007   

I don't know how the autor manages it but this story is sooo good!!! Some could say again even better than the previous two but that depends on the personal taste. Anyway, go and read it! You won't be diappointed! - Anonymous - Sep-28-2007   

My favorite new writer!! I can still hear Freddie's voice in my mind. I can only hope for more. - dawnsue541 - Sep-29-2007   

If BadSquirrel writes it, definitely read it!! Another great story! READ & ENJOY!! - cam - Sep-30-2007   

Three amazing stories in a row! Another must read from BadSquirrel. - Shadow - Oct-01-2007   

It's not often that I'm compelled to review, but BadSquirrel is definitely on my list of top ten authors. For a seemingly out-of-the-blue writer to bring such well-written, well-rounded characters is always fantastic. Keep 'em coming Squirrel! - DKG - Oct-03-2007   

wow...I'...um...WOW! - Kat - Oct-05-2007   

Edgewater sounds like a pretty good to live now. :) Love the story! - ter - Oct-27-2007   

This is such a good story,read and enjoy. Bad Squirell is an excellent writer. - Lizzie - Nov-15-2007   

I loved this story, this was my second taste of BadSquirrel's work. If you believe in the Six Degrees, this is the story for you. And if you don't its still a great one to read! - Anonymous - Dec-20-2007   

This story is awesome. I love it so much PLEASE KEEP WRITING!!!!!!!!! - Nicole - Feb-02-2008   

This story was good...but it needed more sex...now I know she's gonna complain...but since I am her beta reader on the new story she's writing...I can say what I want...and ladies I am making sure she puts more sex into her writing...I can only say one thing...when her new one comes out...get in line...it's gonna be hot... - QMBG - Jun-16-2008   

God, I can't believe I forgot just how good this story was. Badsquirrel is a fabulous writer. The part where Kelly is doing a crossword puzzle, had me spewing diet coke all over my monitor. Thanks for the great read
P.S. listen to QMBG!!! - Nancy - Jun-22-2008   

Truly a marvelous story. Please take the time to read this. - Gwen - Jun-27-2008

I just have to say that this was a very, very good story. What Kelly did to that crossword puzzle will probably stick with me for a good minute. - Tylincia - Aug-10-2012   

Favorite couple of BadSquirrel's. Kelly is so swoonworthy. Was great seeing a cameo of them in Dark Side, would love to see a sequel showcasing their friendship. - Pinoefan - Sep-09-2012   

One of my all time favs! Awesome story!!! - Stonewalldog - Dec-25-2012   

The best of the best! - zac - Dec-26-2012   

A well written, entertaining story that was super fun to read. The characters are believable and very likeable. The fictional town of Edgewater sounds like quite a place to live. Would love to see another Edgewater story where all the couples get together. - Stacia - Mar-04-2013   

I've reread this story again , and I have to say it was even better the second time, it was well writen, It holds your intrest right from the first paragraph, I highly recommend this one. - Mutt - Mar-06-2013   

Great story. Just a bit too short for me. - Bethany_ M - May-08-2013

Awesome story. Hope there will be a sequel. - Jules - Sep-13-2007   

It's always great to see new authors offer their work, especially ones like BadSquirrel, who write so well! Very enjoyable story with great characters and lotsa romance :) - Jen - Sep-14-2007   

A lovely story. Great characterisation and a nice slant on everyday things. Enjoyed this one alot. - msprism - Sep-15-2007   

much enjoyed .. (reminiscent in tone I think of another story I read some years ago), elusive to me at first, but recalled after reading some posted reviews by the phrase a "gentle romance". It reminded me of Edith Forbes and her published story "Alma Rose".. so kudos to both authors. - MM - Sep-16-2007   

Priceless!! this story is one of my all-time favorites as of now. the characters are complex and deep, interactions are just as precious and it's a beauty and a pleasure to read this creation. brava, BadSquirrel! - Kat - Sep-16-2007   

OUTSTANDING!!! I've read this 3 or 4 times already. Very witty characters and such a great story...please keep writing and posting. - Sthpaw30 - Sep-19-2007   

Hot damn this is a wonderful story. Great character visualizations. I loved the relationships Shine had with the kids, it reminded me of...me. - gayzer - Sep-22-2007   

Oh, my word, this was a beautiful novel of love. I'd just like to say that BadSquirrel does a fabulous job of slowly building the relationship between Maureen and Shine (love the names), and was not afraid to make them just as flawed as real humans! And I'm pleased to see a librarian presented as a voluptuous, desirable, sexy woman. - Libris Cat - Sep-22-2007   

Great story i agree with the other reviews. good characters, very entertaining and funny. i hope for more on shine and maureen. the character of mabel is priceless. - deb - Sep-23-2007   

Wonderful!!!! - Anonymous - Oct-05-2007   

A must read. It has wit, compassion, angst and a gracefully elocuted love story. I enjoyed watching these two women grow in overcoming their own troubled past as they learn to truly love and cherish each other. - anon - Oct-12-2007   

C'mere Mabel!

I really enjoyed this story. As you can see from the dozens of other recommendations, this is a story well worth reading. - Aubrey - Nov-05-2007   

loved it,hope you write more..your stories are a must read - anonymous - Nov-08-2007   

As everyone else has said...WOW!!!!!!
Didn't want to reading this story for the trivial & mundane things such as sleeping or eating. Hope there will be more from the characters...especially Mabel. - BD - Nov-26-2007   

I love everything by this writer. Her characters are incredible individuals. She joins the ranks of those authors who have created a rich and evolving community where past friends interact with the current ones. - Irish Samurai - Apr-16-2008   

Absolutely wonderful! What a lovely, lovely story. definitely a must read! - Gwen - Jun-27-2008   

A truly talented writer. I've read all four stories currently available in this series - and I'm laready wanteing to read them again. - Anonymous - Aug-01-2008   

Run, do not walk, to read this intriguing story. This bard knows how to write. There is the right amount of angst, laughter, tears and 'just' life to take the reader on a wonderful journey. Awesome! - Kaz - Aug-20-2008   

Fantastic part of the "Edgewater" series. Perhaps, "Shine", "Rumors", and "Dark Side" ought to be linked up? Shine is a must read. Thanks! - Dusty - Mar-27-2009   

wonderful n well written - Anonymous - Nov-05-2009   

excelent story, well writen, passion, angst and love.... what else a reader can ask? way to go for me - kky - Dec-03-2009   

Ok do all of your stories SCREAM for a sequel?
they end perfectly by leave the feeling for more
just what a good bard is suppose to do
cant wait for more - dakota86 - Jun-24-2010   

I can't say enough, just how much I enjoy your stories! Your writing style is superb and I don't know how you don't have a bunch of books published already. I read Rumors and Dark Side of the Moon earlier and I can see that you probably won't be writing any sequels since you have yet to write one, but personally, I would LOVE to see a sequel to all your stories! I never want them to end! Love, Love, Love the story and want more! Please! Grace sounds awesome :) - Marie - Aug-17-2010   

A really well written story. Yeah!!!!! - sassy123 - Aug-19-2010

This is a well written story and an excellent read. The relationship between Shine and Maureen is developed so perfectly.

Fantastic story! Very heart warming and will bring a smile to your face. - Stacia - Jan-15-2013   

the deeper meaning of the title itself mentioned at this story is enough to read it! am deeply moved and impressed! the innocent and passion combined in the scene at the beginning, the hot lapdance and its repercussions is hooot... - opensource - Jan-27-2013   

I highly recommend this story, it gives you food for thought,the bible research was to the point, more people should take a look at the bible and not just listen to what the experts interpt from the book, maybe the world would be a far better place. - mutt - Mar-01-2013   

Thank you for this touchingly beautiful story 'Warriors of the Heart'. It a totally heartwarming gift from a highly talented writer. I give it a 10 for the invaluable lessons about Love. Unique and priceless lessons about True Love. In this, you reach me deeply. I am very grateful to you. Thank you. - orcsage - Mar-06-2015   

SPOILER: a Cop undercover as a stripper in a strip bar. The author should have written a federal investigation and criminal charges filed to a police department that used such tactics. - Samantha - Mar-06-2015   

Loved this story even with it been a bit much about the bIble In it for me but still really enjoyed it Xx - SD - May-27-2015   

About 'Warriors of the Heart', I'd like to mention the character of Stevie's mother, Helen. She's a true Warrior of the Heart, waging her own difficult battles ; basing her strength on Love, fighting fiercely for Love to overcome. Amazing character ! - orcsage - Nov-26-2015   

I just love this story. It's one of those you can read multiple times. I think this deserves a sequel, how 'bout it BadSquirrel? - Gia - Aug-27-2016
