What a clever, devious minx Pippa is! It's almost as if the author based her on someone that she knows intimately. If I'm correct in my assumption that this chapter brings this epic re-telling to an end, then please accept my thanks and my admiration for an incredibly stimulating serial. Given your penchant for re-telling history, I wonder where your roving eye will alight next? Wherever it lands, I'm sure the tale will be extremely hot and beautifully written. 5 stars for this chapter, naturally.
You brought the story to a very satisfying climax indeed. Super hot, well done.
I never tire of your storytelling. I knew some parts of the story of Anna von Kleev but there were still some things I had to find out for myself. I didn't know the Cromwell, lost his head over this marriage. and I loved the way you told it. [Cromwell's shoulders - which might mean they would soon be lacking a head.] I sit in awe reading the way you put things together.
5 Stars*****
Thank you for doing what you do.
Thank you so much Bobbi - I am so glad you are enjoying the series - there will be one more to round it off.
It has always intrigued me of what took place in the aftermath of the disastrous marriage between Henry and Anne. Henry's generosity in granting Anne the use of some important royal castles along with the income of a number of estates plus a very generous annuity smacks of Henry gratitude at avoiding problems with the House of Cleve and Anne's agreement to a swift annulment. Anne never remarried and I have never found any mention of lovers or suitors in her life though that could have been part of the agreement for the annulment but it could also mean there was a Pippa in the background to keep her satisfied sexually and share her bed at night. Marvellous storytelling Pixie and thank you for shining a light on this perplexing period in England's history.
Thank you so much Alice. Yes, Pippa was my way of trying to explain something which historians have never, to my mind, explained in a satisfactory manner xxxxx
Darling Pixie,
You created a niche of happiness in the otherwise gruesome and cruel reality of life under the rule of a tyrant.
You even imagined a marital union between two loving women.
Let this be a beacon of hope for the victory of love over death.
Happy Easter
Thank you so much, darling Amadeus - thanks to the encouragement from you and others, I am giving this one more chapter. Happy Easter to you too xxxxx
Wow! Oh wow!
What a clever resolution to this most difficult situation.
And fabulous intimate passion to round out the story.
One more chapter? Hmmm. What more could happen?
I truly want to believe that there really was a Pippa loving and caring for Anna r”for ever”. - That would be the fairytale ending Anna deserved. *sigh*. I really enjoyed everything about this chapter, but the final line was my favorite: The play on - “lying back and thinking of England”, - as Pippa was pleasured by Anna and the happy thought of leaving Cleves behind, was brilliant. Thank you for this treat of a story, Pixie. 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿
Dr B; Oh my God Pixie, that's what I call an ending, wrapped up Henry, Cromwell, the doomed, but ambitious Katherine and her power hungry uncle and then Anna and Pippa (Pixie) finally have a great sexy time together. You certainly know how to write sex scenes girl, they certainly are knocker wettingly good (that's if I bothered to wear them). Brilliant as usual, five stars naturally and can't wait for your next tale, Robin hopefully. OXOXO.
A delightfully constructed story with many twists and turns before our couple could live in happiness.
Thank you so much, Migbird, I am so glad that you are enjoying this xxxxx
Thank you so much Anon. You can keep the popcorn fresh as there will be one more chapter to round it off xxxxx
Thank you so much Dr B - and there will be one more chapter - and then back to Robin xxxxx
Amazing! The ups and downs, the curves thrown to us are not only exciting but exhilarating.
I was wondering if this chapter was the end, as there was a bit of Anna’s story left untold. The confirmation that there will be a closing chapter has me filled with anticipation (and a bit of trepidation).. Now it’s off to the store for more popcorn. 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿
Love all your stories!!!! Wonderful idea to add a final episode to this story and then to go back to Robin...! You're amazing, Pixiehoff!
This has been a most enjoyable read. It is so well executed that I can imagine that it really did happen like that.
Excellent as always, my darling daughter, and I am so happy you are writing again. It brings me joy beyond my ability to express. Yours always and as always I look forward to your next project. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fantastic use of well-researched historical events to weave an entrancing tale. One of this author's best efforts.
"Oh," I commented sarcastically, "a man failing to get an erection blames it on the woman? What a fucking surprise!"
Every chapter of yours has the one line that makes me laugh, smile and sometimes cry...
This one makes me ponder so much. Thank you
