LOVED the Ethan/Grace scene. Seriously those two are just a great pair. I look for them with every update. Loved getting the glimpse in Gavin's head. And the politician line was right on point. Great chapter.
Author's Response:
Hi BlackMamba, Ethan and Grace's relationship like so many is really complicated. There is no 100% right or wrong. Underneath the anger is a lot of love there. Thanks so much for the feedback.

Okay, I offically love Ethan and Grace and want them to be together forever. Is that wrong?
Loved the intro for Gavin, very nicely done. I can't wait to learn more about him.
Great chapter, thanks Harlen!
Author's Response: Wow! This is the first good thing I have heard about Ethan. There is always something redeembable about a bad guy. I have some interesting things in store for Gavin. I am glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for the feedback. Reviewer: TokenBlackGirl Anonymous

I liked the argument between Grace and Ethan, it was raw, real and truly revealing from both characters. LOL at Jared for thinking Bailey is Payton's b/f. It's gonna be funny when he finds out that its her dog's name. LOL Keep up the good work!
Author's Response:
Hi Bballangel,
It was a hard chapter to write. It is definitely a love/hate relationship between these two, they didn't get to this point overnight. I am glad it was received as I hoped it would.
Jared does it to himself...these two are funny. Thanks for the review. I will be updating soon.

Wow! The convo between Ethan and Grace was, for lack of a better term, intense but certainly needed to transpire. Looks like there was a lot of take and no give on both sides, though I'm still more sympathetic to Grace!
I adore Payton and Jared! He needs to not underestimate a woman's willpower to resist charm... though I know that had to take all of Payton's energy to pull away from him! He's yummy! Very cute having Jared think Bailey was Payton's man! LOL!
Gavin is quite mysterious and I'm curious to learn more about him!
Great Update Harlen!!! :)
Author's Response:
Grace and Ethan are two sides of the same coin, they have a long history, and didn't get here overnight. As they say there are 3 sides to every story.
Jared really does it to himself, he dose have a healthy ego!
Gavin will be a very interesting character. I am so glad you are enjoying it. Thanks for the feedback.

Very nice chapter. Payton and Jared are pretty much doomed to jump each other's bones. And holy shit that slap Grace gave Ethan was fantastic. Best moment of the chapter. Cryptic notes to Waverly and Brett eh? Hmmmm
Great update!
Author's Response: Thank you Black Mamba, Ethan had it coming to him. It seems everybody has their hand into something, including these two. Thanks for the review. Reviewer: BlackMamba Signed

Love the playfulness going on between Payton and Jared, these two are made for each other.
I was clapping when Grace slapped Ethan. That jerk should not get off to easy.
Author's Response:
Joking and playfulness will definitely be a big part of their relationship. Ethan does love to push Grace's buttons, and he pays for it! I hope you enjoy the next update. I love the feedback.

And now I'm asking, what the hell did they do?
Liking Jared's infatuation with Payton, he doesn't know what hit him, does he? And Grace and Ethan, damn. That was...kinda awesome. Love them.
Author's Response: Hi TBG, no Jared doesn't know what it him. Jared is in a new position himself, being on the other end of pursuing someone. He is definitely in for a ride. I love Grace and Ethan, like so many relationships it is complex. Reviewer: TokenBlackGirl Signed

Oooh! So their little secret is known! I do hope they can find a way to disarm the culprit, whoever that may be! Payton and Jared are cute... loved the flirting and Ethan is still a jackass and I was thrilled when Grace slapped him. Great update! :)

Hi IdJunkie! Payton and Jared are both in new territory. It is fun having them feel each other out.
Grace gives it as good as she gets! Thanks for the review.

you got me hooked, now I am wondering what did Brett and Waverly do, did they leak the affair, inquiring minds wants to know. I am liking Grace, she should have punch that scoundrel that she his married to in the gut also, he is to bold, for his own good.

I really like Payton and can't wait to see her and Jared together. Glad she got the job!
Ethan is down right shitty! He is going to falter to his own demise. Politicians and their sneaky ways. I don't like him but he's quite entertaining and intriguing. That's a good thing because that means you've clearly established him as an awful person.
Great Update! :)
Author's Response: It is funny to see the reaction Ethan evokes from readers. He is so good at being bad. Jared and Payton have to work through some walls to find each other....but don't we all. Thanks so much for the feedback. Reviewer: idjunkie Anonymous

Payton was cute, getting all flustered when Jared showed up. And he's becoming a softy around her, I like it.
And Ethan...what can I say, he's such a bastard.I love it.
Great chapter Harlen!
Author's Response:
Like so many of us, Payton can be on the top of her game in one area and a mess in another. She has a long way to go in the relationship department. But she will get there.
There is a lot to Ethan. We will get to see why he is so driven. Thanks for your feedback.

Oooh, Ethan is a bad bad man. Payton's reaction to Jared was funny. Nice chapter.
Author's Response:
It is another part of Payton of never wanting to be vulnerable...and certainly not in front of others.

Good chapter. I'm really digging Gavin right now and his sneaky ways. Great to get some backstory on Peyton.

I really enjoyed this chapter. I love this whole wag the dog element to this, with them trying to whip up or expose another scandal in order to turn attention away from what they are doing. I like that we got to find out more about Payton and why it's so important for her to come of so strong and aggressive. And what's up with Waverly? Everyone's got their hands in something dirty, who's going to be the one that gets caught up?
Author's Response: I am glad you enjoyed it. You will discover more about Payton. So much of who we are is based on past experience. Things that she has gone through is still dictating decisions today. I hope you enjoy the next update. Reviewer: greatodinsraven Signed

Well Jared is obviously sprung, but things are going to get alot more complicated when he figures out who she is I think. Who is Grace getting in bed with I wonder? This is shaping up to be really interesting as all the players begin to come together. I like how you weave character description.
And this:
"Have you been constipated lately? Because you stay talking shit."
Is getting added to my snappy comebacks toolbox hahaha.
Author's Response: Thanks about the character description, that is a real compliment coming from you. I think you do an excellent job of that. I find that to be hard for me to relay how I see it in my head, and translating that on paper. Thanks for your insights. I am glad it is coming off how I intend it to.

That was good but too short! LOL
I definitely believe that Payton will make Jared run in circles.

Payton has a lot to work through...she is worth it. I hope Jared is up for the job.

Ethan's a creep and an asshole! I'm glad you gave us a little background on Payton; letting us know where she's been and why she is who she is. Waverly, channeling a little Sydney Bristow there, huh? And what's in the envelop... I'm curious! Another good update!
Author's Response:
Hi ID..I think it is important to see how Payton makes some of the decisions she does, a lot of it is based on past experiences. I loved Sydney Bristow! I like Jennifer Garner and in choosing her I do end up channeling some Sydney now and then. Thanks for the review. I will update soon.

Oh lord, envelopes slid across tables is never a good thing.
Good to get the backstory on Payton, sheds new light on the character. And Ethan is still damn entertaining, love the way you write him.
Excellent update, looking forward to the next one..
Author's Response: No envelopes across the table are never good. I hope you are enjoying figuring things out as clues are planted throughout each chapter. Ethan is turning into my favorite character. You just love to hate him. Thanks for the review, it is alway good hearing from you. Reviewer: TokenBlackGirl Signed
