I really enjoyed this chapter! The way you've built Carter made me so happy. I like that he's strong, kind, sympathetic, and playful. What more could you want in a man? Which by the way makes me sad because he's just a casualty in the inevitable. The game they had set up was wonderful it really had me giddy. What I don't get is why she wont let go of her bitterness and anger with her parents, the girls and most of all Dmitri. She won't be able to move on with Carter if she doesnt let it go. Im excited that Dina ia getting her own story which will be a masterpiece I'm sure!

That was a good chapter,it was an emotional roller coaster!!!

Sasha should have been stronger by now and she should not run and cower away from her past.

Carter may be a nice guy but sasha's just not feeling him,there's nothing worse than someone trying to force a relationship you can't make your heart feel what it doesn't want to feel. Sasha and Dmitri are to old to play games with each other they should just sit and have a nice chat if Sasha's not ready to work things out with him than that's ok he can step back and give her time maybe try and build a friendship and then try to get back to where they were before everything went down hill. It seems he has forgiven Sasha maybe she will listen to what he has to say and forgive him to because yeah she did a lot of wrong too.

Hold it together Sasha--remember Dimitri hasn't been knocking on doors to find you.    If she falls apart then she will have lost all the hard work toward moving on.  She may want to come clean and tell Carter they can only be friends--he should suspect this anyway, because he saw geniune love between his parents.

I think Sasha should kinda stay away from D.,because if he wants her he will come after her, like he should.  Can't wait  for the girls show-down--they have not changed and I hope Sasha pre-sharpens her claws for them on Dimitri.      

Aww I love Carter... but not for Sasha. He seems like such a grounded awesome guy but more of a friend for her. I loved that he said that he admired her. Sooo spot on, Sasha really needs people like that in her life.

Sasha gets the award for "Fictional Character Most Improved" because she's come such a long way. I'm proud of you Sasha! Also what's up with Teagan? Is something going on with her? I wonder what a Carter/ Teagan match would look like. He seems to be so put together but missing that love in his life, and Teagan needs to get it together and have some love in her life too. :)

So I wonder how Dmitry will react. Will be arrogant as always or trully repentant? We got a glimpse as to what his life has been like without her, but he has a loooong way to redemption. I really hated him before, well I hated the way he treated her and the situation. But the heart wants what the heart wants. I can't wait to see how this story will go. Hopefully Dmitry will get the other award for "Fictional Character Most Improved" as well.

Please please please don't let her shrink back to her old personality in his presence. She needs to put on that "poker" face she practiced so well with Carter and address him accordingly. Gah! I love this story. Great job!

-p2p-

OMG OMG OMG OMG! Please update soon. I knew it was going to happen but my heart was still beating out of control! I love this story so much!

I don't really like Carter that much  because he is more of a friend then boyfriend. She cannot even fake being in a relationship with him because of her strong feelings for Dimitri. 

I cannot believe that you just left it there. My heart is pounding out of my chest my breath is shallow and my mouth is dry. Please update soon. I can't take this suspense. 'Bout to make me have an anxiety attack. Excellent job.

Sasha, greet Dmitri with a confident smile and polite hello and leave, Confidence, Sasha.

Oh it's on it's on.  I was wondering why Sasha felt it was necessary to say Dominic was dating Dina instead of just saying she was in a relationship with Dimitri.

I am excited to see what happens in chapter 19.  The cliffhangers are killers.  I hope to see an update soon.

Carter is a sweetheart...I really do want to see him happy and with that lve and family he desires.

Thank you for the update.
