Glad to see you back! I love this story and can't wait to see where it goes. Curious about why he won't just do what he needs to do if she is the one he wants to be with. Update soon!!

A story thats too close to home.

Please dont stop writing it.

I hope Charley has a better ending than me.

Well, damn Charley.  Rider you're a fool, that woman finally opened up to you and you're scared. What a coward!

Why doesn't Charley just tell Rider how she feels?

That was cute she met his mom.

This is a cute story!!

I really miss this story

This is amazing!  These characters are officially my favorite  on the planet. Can Lisa be my mom too?

Still no update?! Come back!

Good Lawrd. The sexual tension was worth it. I can't wait to see what happens, Charley is such an interesting character. 

Finally!!!  It's been so long, but this update was good!  Okay, even though Ryder pissed me off missing Charley's birthday.  Obviously he's either gonna regret them sleeping together or feel he has to stay with his girlfriend since Charley is alone and pregnant at the beginning?!  Ok, I need to know what's going on and quickly please!! :)  They are perfect for each other, he just needs to realize it.  Great update.

Yay! I love this story. The push and pull between two people with amazing chemistry with so much lying beneath the surface. Sex is meant to be passionate, and passion comes from security and love. You illustrated that perfectly. He is in love with her but for some reason it just is not happening for them. Charley, I respect the fact that she resisted. She caved but she at least recognized he had someone. Which begs the question: what is going on with him? Im really curious. Part of me believes he saw her that night, then left. 

Thank you for the update.

I feel so bad for Charley.  Rider can't even make it for her birthday when she has been there for all of his events, birthdays and invitations and he can't show up on her birthday.  Then goad her into pretty much putting her feelings on the table with nothing from him but physical at this time.  I am guessing you are close to merging the past with the future since she is I am guessing pregnant after this interlude.  No condoms were worn.  They both are emotionally a wreck and can't simply speak about their feelings.  Rider with his constant mixed signals would be a headache for me and I would have to cut him out of my life because of that.  As long as she is holding out for him, she won't find anyone else and unfortunately this has sealed him upon her heart.  Wonder how Rider felt during this.
