I really loved this story, dispite all the things James had been through, she was still able to pick herself up and keep going, with the love of a good man.  I can't wait for the sequel, I'm sure Trigger and Pearl will rear their ugly heads again, because money and power must be at the root of why they want James back in their lives.  I only hope that her father deals with them once and for all permanatly, to make up for not being there when she needed him the most.  

i absolutely adored this story. all characters are completely tanglible, the language natural, funny, tense when it needed to be. i'm sorry i missed out on this for so long, but glad i was able to read it all in one sitting. well, two - last night and while at work pretending to work. well done, woman, and i'm excited for the continuation. i want to know how Trigger deals with James' relocation, how Pearl will be affected by it (at Trigger's hands), how Mel fares (love him!), and Xander and Quinn of course. i want them to visit. lol and for the neice? no words. waiting . . . 

First off, thank you SO much for updating!  I hadn’t realize how much I’d missed James and Tristan’s story until I was reacquainted with their love-affair.  These characters always make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside…I can’t explain why, they just do.  With that said, I'm completely stoked that they’re pregnant with twins!  Yay!!

James’ apprehension about becoming a mother is understandable but she is NOT her evil breeder.  She will be a wonderful mom and Tristan no doubt will be a loving, protective father.  The moment Tristan learned he’d be a dad twice over was priceless.  As for Madamn  Molyneux…well…all I can is, chick (wouldn’t that just piss her pompous ass off, lol)  is a trip. Thankfully James can handle her even though Adele’s nasty attitude is no-less hurtful.

A couple of questions:  about how far along is James and Pepe is whose father, Adele’s her Tristan’s father’s?

Wonderful chapter!

OH! WHAT AM I THINKING?!!! THE PROPOSAL!  IT WAS AWESOME!!  Please tell me she said yes…

NO you didn't just leave me hanging like that?! Neice?! and Adele should be smacked for that behavior.

great chapter

Well, as always I enjoyed the chapter, from beginning to end. I am glad you let us see into the world of Tristen's family a little. I mean here we have Tristen and Tricia falling in love with American's in which their mother Adele has a problem with, why because of the way she was raised, Instead of seeing the people that her children love all she sees is their nationality. But at the end of the day the siblings chose their hearts over their mother. Good for the both of them. I loved how you showed us James' fear when it came to her marrying him. Basically she never had a chance at with Pearl as a role model. But as Tristen said, I don't want a good wife or a good mother I want you." Those were the most powerful words that Tristen could have said. She might not be the prefect mother or wife but Tristen doesn't want perfect he want James and James will love and protect her family the way she wasn't protected.

I loved how James felt guilty for Tristen and his mother's fight when it's really not about her but his mother's problem. Some of it might stem from the fact that Adele doesn't know James. Tristen and Tricia were both wrong in springing the loves of their lives on their mother. I think is Adele was giving the chance she might have loved Kevin and James because she got to know them. But then again it might not have made a difference. Who knows. I am glad that Tristen told James the truth about their conversation because fact is if James were left up to her own devices she might have left the ring on the night stand while Tristen was sleeping and left so that Tristen and his mother could make up. Tristen needed to tell James the truth and James needed to hear it, Tristen then showed James his heart yet again. And a little love in the afternoon never hurt anyone. Jame braiding Tristen's hair was hilarious. The niece what a suprise and the turn of event. Looking forward to seeing what comes next.

Yipppy! James is pregnant with twins I kind of figured that when she paused with baby :D. 

I love this couple and definitely want them to have their hea.

Adele I'm not quit sure as to what I think about her as of yet.  I can say she is a lot better then James' egg donor.  I guess with Tristen being her only son she is very protective of him and wants the best for him that's with any mother with her child she just hasn't realized that James is what's best for him they're what best for each other.

Great update.

Thank you for sharing!

Happy writing can't wait to the next chapters.

Yeah!!! A proposal!! Loved the update.

LOL, I am glad that you enjoyed it. :)

well damn did adele have to be bitchy, james's family has enough negativity. poor james.

He asked her to marry him, Adele is going to have a stroke!!!  I love this story!!

I'm kinda disappointed with Adele's attitude. James has-and has had-enough contention in her life with mother figures. I'd hoped she'd have an easier time of it with Tristian's mother. She's going to be a mother herself, and I wanted her to have someone in that role in her corner. She's never had that. She's going to want and need that as her pregnancy progresses. Enough of the fighting and bitterness with "mothers" already; whether it be her own, or someone else's. She went there for a fresh start and I just didn't want her to go all the way to Europe only to run to the same crap; to have to fight his mother now, as well! Its like she cant get away from it. She deserves to be able to move on from all that kind of stuff already.

And James just needs to go on and accept Tristians' proposal. It'll be worth it. What's the point in any of the rest otherwise. It is final (hopefully) and it is serious, but so is being a mother; and even more so. Not sure whether she realizes that or not. She should given the way her own mother treated the responsiility. She'll be glad she did in the end.

Wonderful chapter.

Future mother-in-law is going to have a conniption fit.

Congrats to James and Tristen.  James is a one of a kind character and I love her. And Tristen is just perfect. All alpha and protective when he needs to be. yum.
