you are very welcome.  And did you happen to know I get a thrill out of being called "Darlin" ?

Louise, you've really spoilt us today.  ;D Just put my little one to bed and settled down hoping that you might have posted an update, perhaps two if I was lucky.

I've really enjoyed these Riverton chapters, lots of facing up to reality for everyone. Ennis has really matured emotionally, not automatically lashing out with his fists when he's felt challenged or threatened. Poor Ellery though, he needs a good long trip to a spa or something (with Ennis's massages thrown in).

This must be the longest the guys have managed to keep their hands off each other since they met -  :laugh:

SPOILER




I'd like to echo Kazza (with that moniker you must be from Oz!). I too am finding the Riverton chapters rivetting! This is really where the rubber hits the road for Ennis.

I wonder how Junior will explain the car to her friends.
