Mouserocks: Glad you enjoyed. I have a sequel in mind... maybe someday when my writing schedule allows (i.e. during my next bout of writer's block
.)
Lynn: Thank you. I had a different ending in mind, but when that last one came up, it just faded away. It does kind of explain her roller coaster of reactional emotions, doesn't it?
Lara Joelle Kent: Yeah, hovering is so his thing. (Both figuratively and literally.)
So true!
Iolanthe: Thank you.
