    Chapter 22

    It is certainly a well-balanced, fun bunch of teens.
  2. Brad thinking Lyn was the only one who would tell was a ridiculous thought on his part. This is a comedy, or perhaps a tragedy, of errors and assumptions. We always suspected that Alexander was sweeten Lyn, but he really did go to great extremes to protect and “own” him. Brad trusted Alexander over his own observations and senses, which, as it turns out was not a sensible thing to do. Now Bella knows everything and we are dying to know what happens next!
  3. This chapter is charged with unspoken knowledge: Lynton’s feelings leak through his care and restraint, while Brad plays knowingly at the edges. The humour and provocation aren’t random—they’re Brad’s way of asserting control over a truth Lynton hasn’t faced yet. Lynton believes he is being loyal and protective, but his actions betray a deeper attachment. Brad’s vulnerability is real, yet it’s offered on his terms, which complicates the tenderness. The closing promise lands as both comfort and foreshadowing, tightening the emotional stakes. We wait, eager to see where this goes and how it might lead to the 8 year break up.

    Infidelity

    What a lovely new year surprise. Life for George is becoming a little complicated. If they can manage it, the arrangement will serve Cavendish well.
  5. Absolutely right. When Lyn assumed that Bella had no knowledge of Brad’s liaison with Luke, he could be allowed to speak up. After this revelation from Bella, however, should he choose to speak up, he would simply be meddling and that is not his place.
  6. Oy vey! I hope you are right @Seraph28. A “mixed” marriage is not an easy thing to navigate.
  7. Knowing @Laura S. Fox, she just might!
  8. Wow! That was an unexpected turn of events. Bella clearly knows, or at least I suspect that she knows, about Brad and accepts the situation. I wonder what it is about her that Brad knows and accepts, that allows these two to marry and have some kind of mutual understanding. It is quite a realisation that Bella, knowing - or choosing to know - what she does, is herself known and accepted by Brad in a way that renders marriage not romantic but functional, sustained by a hard, mutual understanding. Let’s see how this unfolds.
  9. I’m glad Lyndon was able to touch Alexander. The ruffling of hair and thumb under the ear say more than 1000 words could.

    The Post Captain

    Thank you for another engaging chapter. The next few months are going to be great reading! Lovely to see Weston back. I miss Calvert.

    The Right Thing

    To one and all a very Merry Christmas! another wonderful chapter as Lyn becomes increasingly self-aware.
  12. I agree that the house purchase is probably Alexander. Lyn’s biological father doesn’t seem the type to go beyond what they have agreed.
  13. This was just what Lyn needed to stop bellyaching about Brad and Bella. Alexander knows exactly what Lyn needs, before Lyn knows himself. A great chapter.

    Chapter 19

    Let’s see whether Charlene does the right thing or the popular thing.

    Chapter 18

    The upside of small town life is that warm community feel, and Christmas will elicit it more than any other time of year. The bad side of course is that everybody knows almost everything about everybody else. What will the major discover?

    My Image of You

    This did not go well and we remain uncertain about what it was that caused the rift, which is clearly not healed.

    Chapter 17

    Indeed. The exception that proves the rule.

    Chapter 16

    A wonderful first date.

    Chapter 15

    A real date and Will is up for it!
  20. That is a distinct possibility. Alexander could well be the donor and the chauffeur an employee of the rude grandfather.

    Chapter 14

    Will has a really supportive circle of friends and acquaintances. This will steady the ship in the face of the family storm.

    Chapter 13

    Mr Greenwood is one of that breed of teachers who understand kids, and is respected by them in return. i could do with a kiss like that around about now.

    Chapter 12

    Now you are making me wonder what the real issues are? And I’m guessing a lot of it has to do with where we are on Mazlow’s Hierarchy of Needs.

    Chapter 11

    Such a sweet chapter. ❤️

    Chapter 10

    I’m loving the journey these two are on.
