This really is a great story, and very well-written. She's very sensitive to the relationship between Jack and Ennis. You can see the love developing between these two very clearly.

I love writing that is so achingly honest - even if it breaks your heart.  Really great stuff.

I agree Marie, the inner conflicts Ennis is going through are really well written and make this story very believable. Time to make decisions about what is 'the only thing that's real' and not just for Ennis. Jack has some decisions to make too.

I really enjoy reading this story.

Exactly, Fabienne.  Jack has his own demons to conquer.  Hopefully, they can learn to draw from each other's strengths to overcome their own weaknesses.
