Some people don’t read your comments. Sam is neat, Poor Shane, Tina gets to Bette and Marina and Kit gets Fran. loving it all over again. thanks bvh
I am enjoying it. I just have one question, what do you have against Bette (and Shane for that matter)? I know they have to suffer, but Tina thinks she’s a stalker..pu-llease Tina get a grip. Please do not wipe up the floor with them. I am sure you won’t. I know deep down inside, in the clear, crisp recesses of your mind you are a TiBetter. JKDWYD
Oh yeah, Kit to the rescue!! While Marina behaved badly in season 1 (“I’ve opened up your world”, I say, “who asked you for your help woman!!”), I don’t think she deserved Fran (What a hussy!!) or that husband (boy, o boy). Indeed she had enough misery. Also, I like the fact that you are bringing to light the whole dissolution of marriage thing for Jenny and Tim (poor guy).
this is my first time commenting on either of your stories but i thought it should be known that i love thr sam character, but i am seeing a theme or at least a small connection between this and your last story, you like shane either blind or in hospitals it seems lol…anyway keep up the good work and post soon please
you like putting shane in hospital! :) its truly brilliant though.
WTF is with all these peeps talking shit about Sam??? don’t make me kick some ass!!!! I happen to truly LOVE all of J’s original characters!!!!!
Kit did tha damn thing. Sam seems to be interested in Shane w/ all the attention she gives her. Con’t the great work.
Sam Vance…not buying itSeriously, your original characters suck
Awesome chapter, we get flown in right where the drama is taking place. Love it. Poor Shane, getting carjacked like that, she’s a lucky girl. Not only cuz she’s going to be fine physically but also because she’s being taken care of by our lovely Doc. Kit has got balls!!! What a great way to slap Francesca in the face, not literally but this is so much better. Agh…Bette, I know she betrayed Tina but they really have to work things out. I hope they will eventually.
Well, I like Sam Vance, it will be fun to see if she ends up taking care of Shane. Love the drama between B&T even if it is just a little. I love this Kit she seems powerful and sure of herself.
me either. I like Sam yet. I am in this new story. keep going, plz.
hasn’t tis story been posted before – kinda of read it ? well, nice story tks
