I almost gave up on this story a couple of chapters in due to the indesiveness of the heroine, but I'm glad I stuck with it.  I like the characters you've created.  Thanks for sharing.

at last!

When is Elle going to stop being stuck on stupid?  Is Elle telling Dean that she wants the end of her vacation in stupidville?  Awesome  sauce!!

Yay now we're getting somewhere!!

Finally ugh!!!!

Thank you so much! I am excited for Dean and Elle to tread the water of their relationship. I by no means believe it's going to be smooth sailing, but at least they are now in they're now pointed in the direction of their hearts. Poor Gretchen, I knew she was pregnant for a while, it's great that she has two wonderful girlfriends who can give her a pep talk when the in laws act crazy. 

Ok, so glad that Elle told Justin off, he deserved it, and I hope he got the message.

It's time for Dean and Elle to go for what they want, and that's one another. Elle stop questioning things and just Let Go and Let Flow.

Dean needs to cut Katie off, she seems stalkerish to me, and I think that she and Randall had a one nighter.

As for Randall, he seems creepy, and I think he was spying on Dean and Elle; IMO he maybe a bit jealous of Dean.

Hope you enjoyed your holidays, and have a Blessed New Year.

They both need to grow up. 😐

Firstly....I want that dress and those shoes!!!!!

Now...what the hell is Justin smoking? "Build something" after the game?? And that's why she should have left his ass standing right there at that game. He's trying to pick the used rag back up.

Dean is no better than Elle at this point becaue right now he can't accuse of anything. Look how he's doing that chick. Just srt homegirl straight on the reality of the situation. It is not true love! And honestly not sure why she would think it is. 

I hope Elle is serious. She needs to do something!

It's progress! I can't be angry at that no matter how long it takes for them to see the obvious.

Author's Response:

I agree. People should be able to progress on whatever timeframe suites them best. Thanks so much for respecting that, reading and reviewing shellyme.

This was very good--clearded up quite a bit:

Justin (stalker) finally told to get lost in terms/threat he should understand; liking this new Elle.

Katie (just a dancer, no damsel)  Randall's been there and she knotch Tyler, too if she could.  

Dean (modest, but chivalous) was protective toward Kate with Randall, but he only owes her a kindly let down.  He is scare Elle is going to hurt him again, bc she has the power to do so.  Dean needs to ask himself if he's willing to settle for someone ha can't stand to listen to or even bother to kiss.  

Elle (emotionally growing) take the chance, bc it may not come again.  Go slow, but be straight up with Dean.  

Dean also has the power to hurt Elle, esp. if he keeps Katie hanging on (like she plans to).  He should have took her hand off his thigh and he shouldn't have ever taken her to a family function. Don't open one door without closing the other, bc Elle won't put up with another cheater, even if it's Dean.  

These two need to be clear with one another on their expectations, in other words--talk and listen.

I just love the way you are bringing these two together, the ride's bumpy, but I'm hanging on with fingers crossed for a HEA:-). HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Tell your story the way you want to, the way you has envisioned it and certainly not the way we, the readers/reviewers want it to be told. It's YOUR story and as long as you take pleasure to write it it will be good. I see Choosey Lovers as a story of two people who are deeply in love with each over but are incapable to express it cause they are too scared. If they were super confident male/female there would be no story to tell. So what the point...

Anyway... Keep on, i really like your writting and i'm waiting patiently for an update.

PS : excuse my english, it's not my "native tongue". I' m french.
