All Comments on 'Blue Topaz Eyes'

But I became ashamed of myself when I started criticizing other's hard work. If you are going to bitch, at least sign a name to it. But in this case, great story 5+ stars.

This explains a lot from the story with Ken and Evelyn starring...

One of the most beautiful stories I have ever read

You can call me an airhead because I don't remember details of stories very long. I do remember the names of stories that are very, very good. The benefit to having short memory is that I get to read the good ones again and enjoy them almost as much as the first reading. This one, along with most of stories by Todd172 are very good. 5* all the way.

Lovely story just a tad too short is my only criticism. Would’ve liked to share more time with your wonderful characters.

Scores 5/5

Very good.

I just keep reading them over and over and over! Wish I could keep voting.

Just my second read. Still very good. Damn, I need to do some vacuuming before the better half gets home, but I'm going for part two instead.

A little confused, but then being on a beed to know basis keeps everything in perspective...well somewhat in

Another great tale!

A Classic among many. Still a Favorite.

Thanks for sharing your hard work with us on Lit.

For those who want to throw their money at todd here is a comment that he put in a place where very few would read it.

We have novelized the first three Needles and Delaney stories into an ebook on Amazon, titled, originally enough as "Needles and Delaney." We did that partly because so many have asked us to, partly because it was just something new to do, and partly as to protect the work - there are people who skim sites for stories then publish them as ebooks under false names. Some of the real heavy hitters here have had that happen to them.

2nd time around and still great.

Great story. As always.

I hate you. You made me cry again.

Great story, and that covers it completely.

many characters with similar names!

Helluva way to end the story, left us hanging. there shoulda been more.

You have a rare talent, sir. Thank you for reminding me what really good stories read like.

POOR way to end the tale. A good tale though, and needs more. LP

Another good story from Todd, he doesn't write bad stories but some are better than others. Always good for rereads and appreciation, beats the hell out of modern day movies and TV.

Your two-page stories (Literotica mega-pages of course) are gems, finely cut and full-faceted gems. You pack more (and better) narrative, character development, and plot into two pages than any other author on this site. I for one am perfectly satisfied with the gem you have created. But even with that said, I am delighted at the prospect of the part 2 you have favored us with.

Bravo! 5 stars! Superlative!

Great short read. A little editing and it's near perfect. Exuded, not excluded. Define LEOs the first usage. Not very clear who called him to Walter Reed, details like that. Keep writing.You have real talent

Absolutely Perfect, I wouldn’t change a thing. Previous comments recommend subtle editorial changes as to the who is who, on reflection the " Triggers in your writing Style " allow - us - the reader to pick up The what, how and why In your stories, and I for one, Find myself immersing into the drama and thoroughly enjoy It. Bravo Bravo Bravo

How did her parents know she had a daughter?.

Great read.

Your stories are brilliant and riveting. I virtually never leave a comment (just vote) but I am so impressed with the quality of your writing that I had to speak up.

Please excuse the "Anonymous" posting - 20 years in the military has made being a very private person instinctual.

5 Stars.

I didn't believe it was only 2 pages. Not because it dragged, but because you filled in the characters so well.

What was the relationship with Monica, Cathy and Emma????? How did the parents even know she had a daughter? When was Elle conceived? So many holes and gaps, very unlike you. Good story line but too many holes....

@muskyboy and @nitpik Emma’s father is The Reinhardt a man of unlimited wealth and influence and As Emma is his only child and heir he is kept well informed of everything she does

Absolutely wonderful!

Wow, Terrific tale.This is my favorite author. LP

Wonderful tale. Thanks.

Really well written, moving on to the next chapter.

This is the Bestis story of yours.so good. J.A.C. Thank you telling it.

So sad that they lost five years, but it worked out well in the end.

Straight forward narration as in Jack Webbs, "... just the facts, ma'am...". Could have padded more details and descriptions (a 'woman's touch?) Very macho love story. Dedicated civil servants.

Top author. Top story. Top writing.

Although many Loving Wives story resort to the previously-unknown-of child plot, this is one of the few to even acknowledge the husband being deprived of his child's early developmental years. Hats off to the authors!

Who is this guy? I did not see a name but married Emma and they have a daughter. DerMTMan

I would have loved a bit more "flesh" on the story, but love it none the less! Thank you!

Wow- a true Goldilocks story- not too long, not too short but just right. Great author! Can’t wait to read more

As usual, even the second or third reading, your stories lead down a path that it always entertaining and wonderful. 5 stars

Very confusing.

Am also amused by commenters that use a pen name, then complain about anonymous comments.

Lovely story.

Decent story.

Great story - very well fleshed out characters and good governmental policy explanation. Kept reader intrigued and interested from beginning to end. Great author

Sometimes a hard life is poverty without education, however since extreme wealth, power, and influence can be an albatross hanging on a bowed neck, especially when forced to strive with very high expectations. Since it so rare except with some rare stories of 'poor little rich kids' that such situations are mythical to commoners like myself. (Emotional damage, alienation, distrust, and loneliness?)

Kinda sketchy in places, but still an excellent piece of writing

Looking forward to the next part

Five stars.

Wonderful story, a bit less elaborate and very sweet. Nice!

And and again a 5…..

I did not honk you could pull off a satisfying story in two pages after the detailed start but you did. Great writing!

Rereading - great story.

My only criticism - when we're first told of Emma's injuries we heard that she'd lost the bottom part of her right leg but when we get to her hospital room we hear about what remains of her left leg.
