Title: Ki Fashions

I'm not liking Jae-Hwa too much right now. I agree with her depiction of Ki when it comes to him being a spoiled brat at times but she's acting the same way. To purposely make the situation harder just so you can get your pal in the same house? Hmm sounds brattish to me. And I wish Ki will stop with the secrets. Serena is going to have it bad enough w/o him not really letting her know what she's really getting into.

Summary:

Spencer Edwards is a happy bachelor. He’s got a great job, lives in a great penthouse, and thanks to his good genetics, a fair amount of luck where the ladies were concerned. Family was the furthest thing from his mind, but apparently, life had other plans.

 

His world is turned upside down when his older sister and brother-in-law die suddenly, leaving their two young children in his care. Spencer can barely take care of himself, and he’s not so sure he should be placed in charge of anyone else.

 

But a light appears at the end of the tunnel when spirited, no-nonsense live-in Nanny Reese Talbot enters their lives. Through ups and downs and self-discovery, Spencer learns just what it takes to be a Family Man.

Spencer really is a self absorbed ass. His nephew was just smacked around and he can't even bother to make the interview. He'd rather get a piece of an equally self centered ho. geez. he has ALOT of growing up to do.

is it wrong of me that my reaction to his realization that he has a daughter was haha? I'm not feeling his ho-ish ways especially since Isla's life seems so full of stress. I really want to find out what went down all those years ago.

Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Pretty Girl Does as Pretty Girl Wants

Lea has a mouth on her. I'm wondering about her relationship with Isla. Does Lea resent her for taking her away from her neighborhood as well as other issues or is she just being the the normal teenager who likes to push buttons just because they can?

Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4: Ghost Of You

oK so I can see why she wouldn't tell him but on the otherhand lies get you NOWHERE for long. So now what... Lea and Lance are mad at you for lying even though I think she'll be more affected by what Lea feels.

I hope Lance doesn't do anything stupid, he isn't without fault either. Lea...I don't know. I think she'll be upset that Lance cheated and lied to Isla but keeping her away from her dad....?

GRR these two are making me mad. i wonder if darcy will be forced to preserve her so called honor, even though he knows richard could care less about leticia and it's clearly a set up. I also wonder though how leticia can think she'll live happily ever after with a man she had to trick to marry her. not getting the her logic.

Author's Response: Don't worry. The Superior Cousins won't be around for too much longer. Letitia is not that bright, if you haven't already guessed. I think she was dropped on her head by her wet nurse when she was a baby.

Summary:

banner

a short addition to the Series Love Bears All

It was an hour to show time.  With the trunk full of chafing pans lined with her love's labor lost inside each one, a fifteen minute drive to her destination seemed now like a hike across the Great Plains-impossible to meet in the time she was now allowed.

"What seems to be the problem ma'am?"  His blue eyes sparkled as he spoke.

oh dear, even though jessyca may be getting jerard to do the things he should as a father, i wouldn't want that woman all up in and handling my business, especially after the stunt she pulled with sammy.

Author's Response: Jessyca and Jerard are not two people who's heads you want in tandem.  Just you wait.  You haven't seen anything yet from Jessyca or Jerard.  But remember the Santi's are a strong family who have survived 'drama' before.  Thanks for reading and keeping up with the story, despite it's long hiatus.

Summary:

Into The West banner

"This time and place, as I look upon your face..remember as long as you live,

                                                       it was my love  to give"   

                     -except from It Was My Love to Give by Barbara LaBarbera

       ~//~

Sally Parker had heard talk of Indian or "Injun" attacks out West, but that was just talk from around town. Right? Wrong.

Sally embarks on an enthralling, and often dangerous journey when she is kidnaped and taken into the Comanche Tribe. However, the journey isn’t easy, between battles with the increasingly, dedicated, hard-nosed, "war chief," Nakotah Quanah, and trying to fit into a strange society which she feels she doesn’t belong.

Just when things begin to look up, what happens when an enraged mistress wants her servant back and will go through all costs to get her back? Will this kick-off the beginning of many battles for the Comanche with the Texan government or can Sally defuse the situation in time?

Either way Sally is going to have make a life-altering decision that will not only affect her, but maybe for the ‘ayashe’ as well.
