Um, what did I just step in? Oh I wish I could have seen Chris face when Eva told him the truth about their relationship. LOL Served the punk right. I know Todd is going to do something crazy to get Eva back, but am I prepared for it. I believe I will be. 

 Still loving Layla and Adam. I love the fact that Layla is getting jealous about Adam and Jacinta Vincent is a just a jerk. He knows Layla doesn't want to be with him, ut he's hangiing something On Layla. Ugh, Oh, Natalie and Jared was very interesting too. I can't wait to see what will happen next/

Reese! you have done it again. I just love reading this story! Now were do I begin. First of all,

I love how you had Todd talked to Star, he was trying to be patient yet firm on her foolishness about hurting Evangeline. Too bad it feel on deaf ear, and this after Todd told the little brat that he is not going back to her trick of a mother, even if he and Evangeline didn't get back together. Hopefully Star will grow-up and realize other things are important than living in a dream world about her parents. She may be able to be redeem. We will see.

Oohh! So uncle is really Adam's father. Damn, I didn't see that coming. Ti Lao does care for Adam. Hmm, I can't wait to see what happens here. Layla and Adam are too cute and sexy. I thought I would never enjoy a story where Layla getting it on, but I so enjoying Adam and Layla. It's nice and you can really tell that Adam and Layla are crazy for each other. I can't wait to see what happens next with these too. 

August, August, August, slow you damn roll son. You had your chance with Evangeline and you blew it. Do August really think that Hot Toddy is going to stand there and let him(August) steal his Evangeline away from him (Todd)? If so then I need some of the ish that August is smoking. Yet this should be good to read to see all the players trying to go after Evangeline. Lord help them all, Todd is going to go on a warpath to keep Evangeline and there is nothing hotter than seeing a Craze Jealous Mean-sprirted Todd Manning protecting his lovely lady.

Now that's the Todd we need to see on the show. That man is on a mission and there is nothing sexier that than. He getting everything done in order to get Evangeline back and I love it! He got Blair game already. He tried to play nice, but the crazy ass bitch had to play games. Well, Todd is in this game too and he plays to win. Oooo Blair is going to get it!

Oaky what's Vicki and Evangeline is up too? Hm, it could be anything, but I hope that this scheme will work in making Todd and Evangeline stronger in the end.

Great update Reese! Girl, you are really coming on your on dear. It just so cool.

Oh yes, the aftermath chapter. Poor Todd he was mess-up with grive over losing Evangeline. I hate seeing him like that, but he should have know something like that was going to happen after Evangeline saw that joke of a wedding. I'm glad Vicki was there to help Todd out and get him head back on his shoulders to start winning Evangeline back. Now who is this Ti Lao fool think he is messing with. Boy Adam got some dirty family members too I see. I can't believe he treated Todd and Vicki like that and had his mens hurt Roger!! Don't Mei know that threarts just make Todd act even more stubborn? Ti Lao really want his nephew to be in power doesn't he? I'm looking forward to the outcome of Ti Lao vist to Todd's penthouse. Okay I acutally enjoyed seeing how Evangeline and Layla found out about the board meeting and about the altercation at Todd's house. Just showing the concern over Todd's welfare give me great hope that Evangeline will fogive Todd on his stupidity. Now when is the question. LOL I'm glad Roger is okay and I look forward to the ends and outs of the board meeting. :)

fiinally got re caught back up and i want blair and that snarky bastard of a lawyer to dissappear off the face of the earth. that lawyer gives sharks a good name. great chapter. and adam and layla are fire!

DAMN IT I THOUGHT THATPASSION WAS TRULY GOING DOWN WHEN IT WAS NOTHING BUT AN EROTIC DREAM.  WHOOO WHAT  A DREAM.  LOVE IT

OH WOW VANGE WAKING UP CAUSE SHE KNEW HER MAN WAS IN DISTRESS.  I LOVED IT

WHOO THAT WAS EMOTIONAL WOW TODD HAS NO ONE TO TURN TO I JUST FEEL SO SAD FOR HIM.  VANGE WAS HIS ROCK AND SEEMILY THE ONLY ONE TO BELEIVE IN TODD FULLY HELL EVEN STARR TURNED AGAINST HIM THAT MUST BE THE KILLING BLOW FOR TODD.  LOVE IT!!!!

Wow.. I knew the honeymoon was going to be over soon and it was a painful ending to read too. Oh, I felt Evangeline's anger at Todd and Todd's remorse for hurting Evangeline with him not telling her that he had remarried the tramp. But did Todd expected that it was not going to be a big blow-up from the news espeically from the home video Blair the second set-up. Oh, poor everybody in this chapter. Yet, I'm so surprise about Roger and Betty. Yay!! It looked like everybody was getting the hook-up in Switzerland. lol. I'm so eager to see what will happen next and I know Todd and Evangeline will work it out, because it is never over between those two. Thanks for updating Reese.

Oh my Reese...... So hot and steamy. But first the Layla and Adam scene. Those two are really are something else. You can clearly see that they feel the attraction between one another, but they are too stubborn to realize and Layla going off Adam at her department was so unlie Layla, but isn't that what happens when you have hinted feelings for someone? Poor Adam, but at least Todd found it funny. :lol: I also enjoyed seeing Lisa, Uncle Clay, and Sarah. It is always good to see family members of Evangeline and Todd since the show seems to always forget that fact in the past. Now to the hot and steamy part, You had me fanning myself in the shower scene. I got Todd pleasing himself then Evangeline pleasing him back. Good LAWD that was so sexy and naughty. Oh, you can tell I get all excited at Tangie love scenes. It was so hot to read and I love that they want each other that much. I can't wait to see what happens next Reese. Thank-you for the update. :)

Author's Response:

I love the sparks between Layla and Adam, too.  They are both fighting an attraction that both feels is crazy at the moment.  Well, at least, on Adam's part.  He's the only acknowledging the attraction while Layla is still in denial to some extent. 

You know Todd had to act a fool.  He would never let an opportunity to have fun at someone else's expense pass him by, now would he? lol 

Yeah, the whole Williamson gang was present with a little bit of Lord representation by Sarah. 

I must say that was fun to write.  Tangie is so hawt! 

Thanks for reviewing.

I admit I was starting to really get frustrated with Todd and all his "oh, I don't want to take advantage of her, blah blah blah" and I was yelling on the train (I printed the last 3 chaps out to read to and from work :) "DUDE! SLIP HER THE GOOD STUFF, ALREADY!"

 But then I settled down, after I realized that even though it angers my inner-horndog, he's absolutely right about it. That last conversation has made me totally root for Todd and whatever he decides because he has nothing but Evangeline's best interest at heart. Like Vange, I'm accepting it and will try to be patient.

Good stuff. Also - your vocabulary is awesome. "Adroit"... 

This was sooo sweet - the perfect "Evangeline Wakes Up" scene. Her small, soft voice and the gentle way Todd handled her before they fell asleep was awesome - I read it twice.

Although, I must say if I were Evangeline (or Todd for that matter), I'd be terrified of falling alseep too. 

Great follow-up to the last hot chapter Reese. As I already believe Todd and Evangeline can't get enough of each other. Lol I'm glad that Evangeline let Todd know that she didn't wanted to stay at the penthouse due to the fact that he stayed there with Blair for years. I always felt that if you want to start over and bulid a great relatioship, you need to let things in the past go and the penthoue is one of the things that need to be set in the past. Okay, I already can see that Starr is going to cause some problems due to her false thoughts of her parents marraige. Let hope Starr don't ogo overboard with her resentment to Evangeline. Jack is cute in this chapter and I just love Vicki reaction to haveing her brother back and seeing such a strong and bold Evangeline that is willing to fight for her man. Oh dear, I knew that Blair will cause some ish when she realize that Todd in moving on with Evangeline. I just hope that the news of Todd still being married to Blair don't cause too much trouble with Evangeline and Todd, but I already know that Evangeline is going to be one piss off woman when she finds out. Poor Todd. Oh and thanks for moving on from the Evangeline and Natalie drama and showing these women are above all the silliness over fighting for a man who could never own up to his true feeling about anybody in the case of one John McPain opps I meant McBain...... Great asl always and I can't wait until the next chapter.

Author's Response:

Yes, I always felt that Van wouldn't want to stay in a place which would always be connected with Blair. 

Starr is just like her father in wanting her way at all costs no matter what he has to do.  It will be interesting seeing how she copes with the demise of her cherished family and Evangeline. 

I felt that Natalie and Van wouldn't keep harboring a resentment for each othe over John. I believe they both would have understood that neither was treated well and would want to move past that time.

I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter and thanks for reviewing.
