I am so happy you updated!

I am beyond thrilled that Quinn finally opened up to Nick, now we just have to wait and see what he says to her.

I am a little disappointed in Quinn's "secrets" I honestly thought with the way you kept everything so hidden and dark I thought her secrets would be alot worse than what she said. I don't know though maybe you'll add more in the next chapter we'll see. I hope that you update soon!

Author's Response:

Awww...I'm sad you are disappointed, but you have to remember that EVERY single thing that happens in this story is intentional.  Even if her reasons are not as dramatic as you expected, there is a reason that they are what they are, and you will see it soon.  And you might not like why.  The fact that her mother has passed away has been a major catalyst for quite a few things in the story.  It is the first thing she really opened up to Nick about early in the story, it is the reason she went to him in Orlando when they first really and truly emotionally connected...and it is also one of the things that keeps her tied to Jake.  All of this will make sense soon, so hang in there.  Things have been so emotionally charged for so much of this story that I know sometimes it seems like a lot hinges on a conversation.  In reality, the biggest thing happening in this chapter didn't really have a lot to do with what Quinn said or confessed to Nick; if you look back, she didn't "say" she loved him.  But she didn't have too, the physical and emotional intimacy between them was very obvious here.  And you are so right, Nick does have issues...and he isn't telling Quinn about them yet, but we, the reader know.  His stuff is going to play an important role coming up...

As always, thanks for reading and reviewing.  I always look forward to your reviews and value your opinion.  And of course, I appreciate your honesty.  We have a bit to go here, more than I had originally planned, but we are definitely in the home stretch.  Prepared to be surprised...I still have quite a few curve balls in this story!

So now a lot of her issues are out in the open, and Nick still wants to be with her. It is definitely a huge weight off their relationship, that's for sure. I hope now that Quinn has told Nick all of this that she'll finally be able to let go and enjoy their relationship without worrying so much. Great chapter Darby! You are so good at conveying exactly what Quinn and Nick are feeling.

Author's Response: So glad you liked it, Steph...this is an important chapter, sets up a lot of good drama coming up!  Thanks for R/R!

Wow...I never really thought of it that way...that she would be scared of being that close to someone and then they pass away and leave her alone. But then again, I've always believed in that qliche addage "It's better to have loved and lost then to have never loved at all". That kind of love, Nick is right, its rare, the kind most people today don't experience. Today's relationships are disposable...only in it until things get rough..then its time to move on..or when someone else that catches our eye.
I hope that Quinn can see past the things she is scared of the most and see that she should snatch up what she has with Nick and hold onto it for dear life...and enjoy the ride for a long as it may last. And Nick, I pray he sees in her his future and all that comes with it in family and love...that's SHE'S the one worth marriage, worth that risk, worth conquering that fear of that next step.

Great chapter! I loved it and can't wait till the next. We are getting into the heart of things now and I'm really enjoying the ride. Great Job!!!

Author's Response:

Quinn is still very wounded by losing her mom and watching her dad live without her mom, it has impacted her in a major way!  So she is justifiably terrified, a lot of people who have experienced a great loss in their life have commitment issues.  They are both scared, Nick has his own issues, but here, he is trying to be strong and be there for her.  Will he be able to stay strong and disregard his own issues?  We shall see!

Thanks for the wonderful review...I love when I get long ones with detailed feeback!  Glad you are enjoying it, I hope you continue to do so!

Wow that was beautiful. I don't understand Quinn sometimes, if I were in her position, I would just be with Nick and that's it..but it's not that simple.

Author's Response:

I honestly don't understand Quinn sometimes either and I created her!  Nothing is ever simple with her and Nick, if she wasn't complicating things something else would be.  Thanks for reading and reviewing!  More to come!

Author's Response: Thank you!  And so sorry for the time between again!  I have actually been very inspired lately but I have had no time to write.  I am still feeling in the zone so I am hoping to get the next chapter out soon.  Thank you for being so patient and thank you for reading and reviewing!!!

YAY another update...you made me so happy now I can go to sleep happy lol.
As far as the chapter WONDERFUL JOB! You really let us see a side of Quinn that we have never seen before. I loved how she finally opened up to Nick and showed him how she really feels about him. I also love the end, but I can't help but think that Nick is putting off letting her in as well and letting her know about his "issues" So he is using sex to avoid it.
Next time don't wait so long to update you about killed me lol! But again wonderful, wonderful, wonderful job!

Author's Response:

Why thank you!!!  So glad I could make your day, I was so glad to finally have time to write, and I am just as happy when you are when I update/complete a chapter.  This is a huge chapter for Quinn, she has finally put herself out there and allowed Nick to see her for who she really is, vulnerabilities and all.  I didn't take Nick's need to be physically close to her as reverting back to the sex thing, I think he just wanted the physical intimacy to go with the emotional intimacy, or at least that was my intention!

Sorry for the lag between updates, lots going on in between...I was on vacation and a million other things!  More sooner this time, I promise!!!
