One of the most beautiful epilogues I've ever read...I don't know what it is but u touched my heart...:-)
It was so amazing that I reviewed something on fictionpress for the first time...one more fan added to ur list.

Wonderfully written.
But frankly saying, Beth did NOT deserve a happy ending and a man like Peter after all she had done..

i loved this story!
thank you for this :)

Thanks for the story. I enjoyed it. Kind of. But I felt it was more than a little screwed up. Anyway, your effort was visible. Good luck for your future endeavours.

This should have been the time for Michel & Ria to get together, no?

Seems cliche but I'm interested even tho I know the two besties will end up together after much acting, kissing & crying :-p You had a few mistakes. In one of them, you used 'to' instead of 'two'. There was this other part where I think you forgot to include "me".

Rereading this and I cannot believe Bethany's nerve to say that ari is not as innocent as she seems.

What happend to chapter 16?!

This story may not be as well-written as others but, this has got to be one of my favourite epilogues ever! Especially the last paragraph, well done!

Very dramatic but a well thought out story although it was a bit long and some of the plot did drag on a bit; but overall it was a nice, entertaining read.

wow! this was super fantastic! i could really relate with the characters and i literally was on an emotional rollercoaster throughout the story. well done!

this was one of the most intense stories i've ever read, it just blew my mind away. even though the epilogue was written in a completely different style from the rest of the story (you warned us p) i'm glad i read it, cause i'm just too curious not to p

i never thought the problems between beth and ria were that deep and serious, it shocked the h*ll out of me xD i do feel that bethany was the one at fault though. how could she steal her sister's first boyfriend (or any, for that matter?)? i know there are a lot of those things happening, but i just don't GET IT! family has to be more important, i would rather move to the other side of the earth than do anything like that to my sister! i just can't understand her beeing upset with ria, she stole HER boyfriend, slept with him and wasn't even sorry about it. i don't care about the guy, he was just a GUY and a junkie at that! how could she turn against her own sister for that? if my sister had done that to me i would never have spoken to her again, or my parents if they accepted it. i just feel so angry with beth for being so f*cking messed up! sounds stupid, i know p i have a vivid imagination and i got really into this one, especially with this topic, which i feel very strongly about...

i'm glad they both finally found themselves in healthy, loving relationships, although to be honest, right now i kind of wish beth had ended up dead in a ditch somewhere, i'm childish and unforgiving p

i loved michel and how he and ria interacted, it was just so real. i must admit, when reading romance stories and there is a sex scene, it usually doesn't feel very "real" to me, it's like whoever wrote it reads a bit too much harlequins or something, but when ria and michel made out i found it very realistic p

i'm glad i'm not related to ria, i would have gone ape-shit on all the homophobes :( my favorite of the twins was george, though. he was just the voice of reason ria needed, and he really cared for her sensibly or what it was he said.

i really liked the fact that she talked it out with veronica, i know that it was a terrible thing to do, to break it on her like that, but had it been me, i would have done it so much worse. ria is way more responsible then me. i did not like the fact that veronica took callum back, i would have thrown him out and gotten shared custody. i have never been in love, so maybe i'm not a good judge, but i don't think my pride would have ever allowed me to take a cheater back, especially not one as weak as callum. i don't think it makes the children happy to have to watch their father disrespect the mother so badly.

i loved the funny parts of the story, they were hilarious!

ok, now that i've ranted enough; thank you for a really engaging story! i read it all in one go and the time is currently 04:10. i'm not even tired, 'cause i was so into it

oh god! and i thought the scene in the car was funny, this had me laughing till my stomach hurt and i had tears in my eyes! first in the shop and then the hand-cuffs falling out like that, this is killing me X'D

"Woah. Did I just say love? Shit. And then, and then, Michel leant forward again and flicked on the radio. And guess what song came up? I was made for loving you baby." that had me laughing so hard xDthe whole situation was hilarious! so typical that a song on the radio makes the car ride awkward xD

Wow. I read the entire story in one sitting. It was that riveting. There was a lot of family angst, which I'm not normally much a fan of, but you channeled all of that into this great story of love and forgiveness, without being cheesy or fake, and just... ugh! I hope you know what I mean. It was really great. Even the epilogue-which I was skeptical about at first because of the omniscient POV-was really poetic and quite... beautiful. Yeah, you wrote this story a long time ago... But I just wanted to let you know that someone out there still appreciates it. I hope you're still writing, because you sure are talented :)
