Nice! I like this chapter in Mason's POV. I enjoyed the soft moment when Doug showed his affection for Ernie and I liked that Mason was surprised to see this hidden layer of Doug's personality.

You write excellent dialogue, it's very real and believable. I smiled when Mason said he was nothing if not a gentleman, you're making me fall for him in a big way.

I kept smiling as the conversation see-sawed back and forth, up and down between embarrassed and belligerent and every nuance in between. Looking forward to reading more. Might take me a while with demands of work and such but read it I shall. Thanks for a great read.

I like this. Doug is a very interesting character, I like how it is written from his point of view. The way you have him basically talk to himself and second guess everything he thinks is good, very entertaining. And I love Ernie, he sounds like a great cat. Looking forward to reading on. Thanks.

i made fanart for you..

do u have a time frame that you usually update within...or is it random.. i'm waiting so impatiently i know, i'm sorry.

I hope you'll keep updating this. Mason is so sweet, and how awesome is his family?!.. :)

Ok, about your latest update on Seven Tears, I was going to leave a review, but then realized that I couldn't since I'd alrealy left one in that chapter..So here it is: Is it too weird that I felt like crying when I read you were removing this story? (the crying may have to do a lot with the political and economical situation we have going on in my country though, but still...)
But then I thought "oh well, I'll buy it when she publishes it". Seriously, I think that story is wonderful (I've said it before) and has so much potential. I really don't doubt you'll get published eventually; you're a really good writer, so don't give up. I didn't get a chance to review the last chapters, but I did read them, and I have to say I loved Janice and Laura's husband so much. Actually all the characters are wonderful. And the whole feeling the story evokes is just magnificent, I really feel at peace whenever you describe those lands and then marvelled about the behaviour of the seals; your narration style is that good. I seriously believe you've got a really good thing going on here. Please let me know if Seven Tears gets published so I can buy it, for I'm really dying to know how it develops; it feels so much like a classic folklore story that I just feel like I'm in love with it.
...(wow, this came out really long! Sorry about that)
Best of luck, girl!

I'm glad you wrote in Mason's point of view! It's nice knowing why he's chasing after Doug so vigorously. I hope Doug doesn't keep the attitude up for long. I know, realistically, that he isn't just going to drop his barriers after one outing, and I'm fine with that, but seeing his moments of openness is nice. :)

I like Mason. :) I'm not really sure what his appeal in Doug is right now, but maybe he's an optimist and can see something I can't. Doug sure is a grumpy fellow.. Still, I like this. :) I hope we get to read in Mason' PoV at some point. I'll be that would be interesting. I'm glad I found you and your stories on another site - WoP just doesn't seem to be cutting it anymore. I liked what I got to read of the Halloween Incident, so I'm hoping this one will be just as good and pleasant to read!

You're so beautiful. Never stop,

I think Deanna is mad because she thinks Doug stole Mason from her, basically took her big brother. I can not wait to see what happens next, I just read this story all in one go and I am eager for more, my dear friend
(sorry about my grammar, I cant actually see my keyboard at the moment)

I love Mason's family so much! Can't wait for the next installment!

This chapter was fantastic. I love the way Doug interacts with Mason's family. He's so shy and soft. I can definitely see how they'll become the family he's never had. And of course the little moments between Doug and Mason are adorable. I can't wait for the next chapter!

I tried to come up with something original to say, but the main thing is: I'm so glad to see a new chapter! It feels as if I can see all of these characters chatting right in front of me.

Great update. I think Doug is going to fit in very nicely with Mason's family. I also think that Deanna is jealous of Doug, that maybe she & Mason were very close growing up and she might feel like he's going to take him away or hurt him in some way.

Oh, how I've missed reading your stories! It has been too long since you've updated my favorite stories! I'm assuming life has been occupying you, so I totally understand! Anyway, lovely chapter as always. I love Mason's family; they are so welcoming. Do people like that really exist? If they do, I have yet to meet them, but would gladly do so. That sister of his is truly a character. I wonder what her deal is...
Thanks for the update, stay well!

I love this chapter and please update soon!

Love this! You did a really great job writing the interactions between Doug and Mason's family members, and I love how he and Angela opened up to each other so quickly. I also like how you added in the whole twin thing between Mason and Tyler.
Wonder what this whole Deanna thing is about...
Can't wait for more!
