This is a cracking story and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The path of true love did not run true, but with a lot of hesitations, dramas, therapy, friends, enemies, families, and a whole lot of baggage for the pair to deal with. You made it into a journey for them, separately and together, that involved them learning so much about themselves and each other. The end result is magical.
Thank you so much for sharing.
I really liked it. All of the introspective analysis of their tenure in the friend zone was pretty good and something I hadn't seen before. I did think it went on too long now and then but overall it was really right for the story. Great job!
Another wonderful tale from Volunteer. As I write this it is scoring 4.91 which means there are people who have read this and not scored it a 5! Bloody hell people, how much more do you want from a story? This one is nigh on perfect.
I discovered and I am completely fan.
A very beautiful story that like real life is filled with ups and downs.
I sincerely believe that nowadays when everything goes faster, when we have to decide everything sooner, we lose the time to really know ourselves and to recognize what we want to do and what we want for our future.
This is a wonderful example that you have given us. Thank you.
Great 5* series! Not meant to degrade your ability, but the way you played Chloe’s hidden desires in Part 1, could have allowed you to speed up similar characteristics with Lily. The result was 3-4 pages of unnecessary plot development in Part 2. All well written - 5*
You are an awesome writer! I hope you keep writing, this was such a pleasant read. Thank you!
"I felt my brattiness finally coming back. "I'm not so fussy, any cock will do to scratch this itch."
I wouldn't marry her either....
C sections are far more serious than natural birth and have long running consequences. Do not choose 1
Sorry. I had to stop reading during page 5. Just too much sex and way too much submissiveness for a romance.
What nonsense about her mother not liking Mike!!!
At her gran's funeral he met Sharon, she spoke to him without any indication she didnt like him!!!
Their grans were friends, they were friends so surprising that both mothers haven't met before!!
Now you had to create drama so Sharon was the plan
Lily's mother was a snotty uptight bitch....shocking that she made a 360 turn!! That Lily and her bitch mother see each other daily is nauseating!!
After two lengthy parts you could gave had a better ending with them having more kids and bring married!!!
Wow. Well told, well written. Mindblowing that the Anon commenters that didn't like the first part, read the second part. Kind of flattering, but also kind of sick and stupid. I have a 15 minute Hallmark movie rule that goes: presuming I don't like character chemistry, the characters themselves, and/or the story by the first commercial break, I delete it and look for another. Same here on Lit, I have no problem bailing sooner than later, yet there's no way I would skip to the end and leave a mindless, mean comment if I didn't finish the story. Preposterous. What's wrong with some people?!
I liked it. Thanks for sharing. Bravo.

Love”y and well told story. I especially appreciated how it showed Lilly coming to terms with her alienated self and her need for safety and limits in which to claim her sexuality and her authentic being. Beautifully done.
