Title: Chapter 1

This was a beautiful story. So unexpected and lovely. I loved reading about their love growing and maturing without sex.  I have Muslim friends and I've always admired how the women are treated. I used to meet my Muslim friend for study groups and either her Mom or sister would come. They were always warm and friendly. It's a custom I greatly admire, especially coming from a culture that encourages women to be so indepedent. I often wished that I had someone really looking out for me.   Eshan was just too perfect. I loved everything about his character.  I really enjoyed reading this story!



Author's Response:

Thanks Charlize!!!  So glad you enjoyed the story.  I loved writing it and spending time with my darling Eshan.  I have a yen for Middle Eastern Muslim men for the very reasons you described...and the dark hair and gorgeous brown skin in every shade doesn't hurt either ; )

There's no continuation of Joss and Eshan's story in the works at the moment, but that could change at any minute.  I never know when a story will come to me or where it will go.  Thanks SleepEasy!

Title: Chapter 10

I thought I would have me a JJax day and catch up on all your offerings. And what a good day I have had so far. Thank you for this sequel and as usual you never fail.

The warmth of Eshan and Joselyn's romance, which started in their first story, continued and spilled over in this their second tale. The character that is her mom and the addition of other members of her family were so life like and very entertaining. You took me from laughter with the antics of Jos' family and Eshan's father to vexation and frustration at the behaviour of Eshan's mother and brother. As I cast my imagination into their future, I doubt there will be any love lost between Jos and her mother-in-law. Jos indecision countered by Eshan's unwaving commitment to their relationship made him even more enduring. If only he could jump off your pages and into real life.

Let me say, I totally enjoyed this story, to the last word. Thanks much JJax...



Author's Response:

You're very welcome, Introspection.  Thank you for the lovely review.  I'm so glad you liked the story.  You're absolutely right--the damage done to Joss and Mrs. Kourosh's relationship will not be easily repaired, if ever.  The real question is what that will mean for Joss and Eshan's relationship...

Thanks so much for taking this journey with me, and for taking the time to share your thoughts.  It is sincerely appreciated.

Title: Chapter 10

*ugly sobbing* This story along with its predecessor Betterment & Betrayal has been a true journey but an absolute treasure to read. Yeah, I can admit to being a smidgen disappointed I didn't get to 'see' how Eshan and Joss' first time went down, but I'm so overjoyed they're married and that's the most important thing. These two have got to be my absolute favorite couple to ever read about. The chemistry between them left me grinning from ear-to-ear and filled with a hope that one day I'll be blessed enough to meet, fall in love with, and eventually marry my own version of Eshan.

Mrs. K, you old she-devil you got your work cut out for you in getting back into your husband's good graces, your family's as well. I wish you an ounce of luck. 

The wedding was beautiful and hilarious, and the ceremony itself was very symbolic and had much more meaning than the customary American style wedding. The wedding itself told a story about courtship, and Eshan trying to convince Joss to unite her life with his, and Joss putting up a 'fight' until she was convinced. It was very unique to read how another culture performs a wedding ceremony, and actually inspires me to try to infuse some of those customs into my own whenever that should happen. 

I would love to see how these two tackle married life and eventually starting their family, but if this is the final number in the Eshan and Joss' soundtrack then I am very happy that Joss didn't allow Mrs. K to run her off, and that she married the man of her dreams.

Excellent, superb writing, beautiful characterization, a fire breathing opponent that made me want to climb into the story and slay, dauntless love, characters you could root for, characters you could hate, this story had it all! Thank you so, so much for sharing your amazing talent with us. I look forward to reading more from you!



Author's Response:

Thanks for the fantastic review, Lapis Love!!!  I can't tell you how much it means to read that Eshan and Joss are your favorite couple to read.  I love writing about them and I'm so happy that others have enjoyed reading it.  Thanks for being understanding about the absences of a scene describing Eshan and Joss's first time.  There will be plenty of others, and I'll likely give readers a peek into one of those moments. 

I've so enjoyed reading your insight and hope to have you along for the ride as I continue to tell their story.  Thanks again for the wonderful review, and for reading and reviewing.

So wonderful! I have been to many a Middle Eastern wedding. I have always loved the pomp and the feeling of inclusion, so I was glad to read it here. As well as the love Joss and Eshan hold for each other... Though I certainly wouldn't be adverse to reading that long awaited first time * wink wink*

Title: Chapter 10

Aww, I had tears in my eyes.  That is the kind of love I want in my life.  Are you sure we can't order an Eshan at all?  Just the way you write of their love for one another is beautiful.  Even as I type this and reflect on their journey so far, I can't help but feel emotional just like Pearl.  Is it bad to feel Happy that Mr. Kuroush is giving the Mrs. the silent treatment.  Pretty much he did not honor his word and decision regarding Eshan's choice in a bride.  She for the most part made her personal hatred a public affront to his choice for his son and I know that cannot be accepted based upon everything Eshan and Joss has gone thru.  If I could be a fly on the wall of their home tonight *smiles evilly*.  So by those chapter end notes, do we have another story ahead of us with Eshan and Joss staring.  I swear I could read about their whole life without any reservations.  Please, please, please, begging here if you didn't notice, another story.    I must admit, I swear I read better stories on this site than what I pay for.  God given talent, only wish I had.  



Author's Response:

Thanks for the awesome review, Lajack!  You're absolutely right about Mr. & Mrs. Kourosh.  Not only did she publicly embarrass him and Eshan and threaten to divorce him, she made a spectacle of herself at the reception of a wedding she couldn't even be bothered to attend and doesn't seem at all that sincere in her acceptance of the marriage.  It seems she found herself the odd man out and only did what was necessary to get back in her husband's good graces.  We'll see how well that works out for them all.

I'm not sure when and in what form, but I have every intention of continuing to write about Eshan and Joss.  I'm so glad you've enjoyed their story, and thanks for reading and reviewing.

We don't need to read about their coming together, we already know Eshan threw down and took Joss to bliss heaven; just as we know his father may never forgive his mother for her behavior--I stil would not let my kids be with her alone.  Guess Hassan's wife didn't want to be on her bad side when she gave the mother the knife.    Thank you for sharing a very beautiful story.

I must admit that I was one of those that wanted a peek into their marriage bed...but considering how you made these two out to be....it would feel like Id be invading their privacy....and they deserve their privacy...esp. after going through what they went through...esp. after waiting so patiently to be together that way....they deserve that night for themselves and themselves alone. Thank you!

This whole story was absolutely beautiful!! I loved every chapter and I cherished every second of reading it. There are no other chracters in the world that are as beautiful and Joss and Eshan. And as much as I have wanted to read about the long 'awaited moment' between Eshan and Josslyn, I would love to wait to read that in another story of yours :) Thank you for blessing me with this beautifully written story.
