A fantastic climax to all that build up and a sweet ending with the right amount of closure while leaving the possibilities open for the readers imagination. Your character building was extremely impressive and gives me high hopes for future work. Unequivocally 5 stars.
This is a really fine story, expertly paced, and completely believable. Having a young lover follow a script he himself wrote in order to keep his seduction on track and not collapse due to his inexperience -- is simply a stroke of genius. It nicely explains how an 18 year old student could drive a woman nearly twice his age wild with lust. Bravo, author! This story is even better than your first. Looking forward to reading more!
I loved this perfectly scandalous romance. You have a gift.
You write with style and intelligence. I really enjoy your writing and do hope you continue sharing your stories with us.
I appreciate the kind comments! I’m so glad people have enjoyed this series (which I only *occasionally* felt guilty writing).
@“Wow”
That was my hope with the ending — closure + open possibilities. No doubt Liz has planned to erase Ryan’s number from her phone many times…and this time she really will…or, okay, maybe tomorrow. Or next week. ;)
@tennesseered
In light of your earlier comment that Ryan seemed very suave and confident for his age, I’m especially happy you found the story believable. Glad you appreciated the device of the note. It served Ryan better than he ever would have guessed.
@Dragonfly424
Aw, thanks. It was fun venturing into scandalous territory.
@Alliwantis
That’s a good thing, I hope…? :)
@cerrotore
Thank you. Definitely will keep writing — hope you do as well.
I really like both your story bases. The style of writing is easy to get wrapped up in, thanks for taking me away... Would love to see more entries from you soon.
I have two standalone stories that are going through final edits...both should be up by the end of the month, and both leave high school behind to visit some older characters.
Thanks for reading; glad you've enjoyed so far!
Would it be too much to ask for more of this story?
When characters are so well developed and you stay with a series for long, you as the reader, tend to fall in love with the characters and their story. You want them to have it all.
I really wish this develops into something more. Would love to see it.
I have so many good things to say; I'm sure I will leave a few things out.
You managed to make the build-up to the concluding sex scene as intriguing and sexy as the sex itself.
Both characters were well done. The full portrait of Elizabeth drawn by the author, over-worked, underappreciated by her beau, and all fun having deserted her life, being seduced by the unalloyed sexuality of Ryan's note makes the implausible believable. The same is true with Ryan, inwardly doubtful and insecure but moving forward with outward confidence, having committed himself to a course of action which he is not sure will work.
The hic-ups along the way -- Elizabeth's decisions not to come to school early and to make one last visit to her boyfriend, the late night phone call -- also make the story more believable and the ultimate seduction more delighful.
The ending was emotionally satisfying. Instead of simply ignoring the risks, both parties understood them and willingly decided to take the chance, and then when it was over decided to let go but, we suspect, with some regret, the desire to re-visit the magic moment still lingering.
Thanks again.
I couldn't put this series down as Ryan and Elizabeth found that place of passion few ever get to. I found myself hoping for a reunion, but just as much that each would find a lasting passionate love. What a beautifully told story! Thank you for sharing your creativity with us!
Wow, you have a way with characters. Came three chapters ago, kept reading just to see what would happen. The stories are very well edited, and I love how long each chapter is. You've put a lot of time and effort into this, and it shows. Thanks for the ride! I, too, sort of want to see them again. Maybe a few years later, when he's out of college or in the midst. Maybe she sees him playing his heart out in a concert, or vice versa, and they make something out of it. Either way, it was great!
Just read all four parts and I gotta say- this was fantastic. Job well done!
Thank you. Loved the slow-burn-to-conflagration style so much. Damn, you're good. I actually had to put the story down several times because it was just too much. You have really made me love this genre.
Liz sure got a work out and got the spark she needed in life. Read all the chapters and think you are one wonderful sexy writer. Worthy of a 5 star.
Like all the others I love the way you built the story to a great CLIMAX (in more ways than one). All very believable - had me hard on several occasions.
Beautifully written will now read your other submissions.
This is quite literally the best story I've ever read. You should consider becoming a romance novel Author.
Hi,
Loved the slow build up, the characters thought processes. One of my fantasies. 5 stars
I wish you did nothing but write and post on lit. You have a great command of this genre and your teasing game is on point. 10/10
Whether you write a sequel or not please consider changing whether she deletes his number.
