One of the best story of this site.

Thank you so much for this story. The sex was not the primary component to their growing together, it was just a part and actually worked well into what was going on. I hope to read more of your work. I'll start looking now.

BTW. More about what happens to Jeff and Sarah would be appreciated.

I liked it so much i wished it wouldn't end,thank you.

I'm such a sucker for a love story. Thanks I loved it.

Need more be said?.!

It was about 4 pages too long.

Things I would like to have seen:

* they are both fucked by a minotaur

* they meet again years later and there is an orgy with a sex cult

* the rapists come to take revenge on the guy and she kills them ....slowly

* three-some with both sisters

I like the stories by many eyed hydra, rapists are killed left and right and it is only 2-3 pages long.

This is a wonderful story... I really love the emotions as they grew closer and overcame the problems... It felt like such a real story... Absolutely wonderful !!!

Two people meet under unsual cirstumates and find true love. Was it Karma or something that was ment to be? Only the writer only knows for sure# 5 star story, will we read more about them I hope so.

I enjoyed this emensly it was nice to read some thing real in what can happen in our daily lives

Touched me on a very deep level:

This story touched me on a very deep level that I had been hiding from myself, and didn't know it.

Having lost my wife of 36 years, five years ago, I have not allowed myself to really feel and love as deeply as I might. Thanks to you and your supportive editorial team for helping me see myself and how I have been hiding myself.

Write your own story with all of the BS you wanted. I will tell you tell you in Advance if you wrote a story that's one page I'd rate it a one and say it's one page too long with too much BS to read.

Write a story like S-Des maybe you can have 5 stars too!

As someone who has been through a shattering break-up, I can completely understand Sarah's position. Stories like this make me wonder if there's a person out there that can help me come out of my shell.

I doubt it. Still a very sweet story, though.

A well written emotional story, very moving

I have to say without a doubt one of the best stories I have rean on this site, I would give it a 10 if I could 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

This is one of those gems that a you don't just find satisfying to reread, but even have favorite sections to reread. Enough said. Thank you.

I spend too much time in Loving Wives, and this is a perfect palate cleanser. It's not a criticism, but I'd like to see more of the friendship between Jeff and Paige, and maybe how Paige decided that Jeff is what Sarah needed. This comes from wishing the story was longer.

I wish this story was longer, I feel like so much more could have been done with it. A love story like this deserves multiple installments. I think if it was written more like "Colleen" by Texas Ranger, a story accounting a couples entire life together including children and marriage would be a nice style to model this after. Other than that, I have read this story three times and plan to do so again. 10/10

I really appreciated this story - this is my third read. Better every time .

The only reason I gave a five star rating is there wasn't a higher rating. Well done!

I send my appreciation and comments, when first I read your story, as accolade and kudos were and are richly deserved for a well constructed, gripping, charming, tender and heartwarming story.

I liked it back then, but at that time had no realisation of the importance and value it would have some years later, nor the ironic parallels.

Six months ago I was involved in a near fatal motorcycle collision; lucky to have survived (Grateful thanks to N.H.S. Paramedics!) although suffering a splenectomy and shattered pelvis. I emerged after three months in hospital with multiple scars (my chest & stomach resemble the London Underground map!) My Hero is my now girlfriend who visited me constantly and rebuilt my confidence as I slowly recovered, despite fighting far worse battles of her own. She didn't give up (just as Jeff didn't) despite me trying to push her away (as Sarah tried) because I too felt unattractive, damaged and worthless. When I reread this recently, I asked my GF to read your story, for its similarity to ours and she agreed; she was much enamoured of the poignancy, bathos and tenderness (particularly where Sarah gives Jeff a 'bed-bath' & when J & S finally make love)

So; Thanks again...

My third time reading this. An awesome story and told with such warmth and feeling that it is an inspiration to all readers and writers alike.

1 star

I only regret I can't give this story 10 stars. Guess I'll have to vote again.

Sue me.

WOW what a story. Where are you now, we need some more of these kinds of stories. I for one was molested (raped) as a child, so this hit home big time. The trust issues never really go away. Great story.

This story is hot, yet incredibly adorable at the same time. The love and passion of their lovemaking brought me to tears. The realism in the story also helps add more emotion, especially when Jeff goes slow with Sarah because of her past instead of just going at it. Thank you for this story!!!

The title says it all, please write more stories like this one.dcd

A wonderful story. Well thought through, written and delivered.

Easily one of the best stories I have read on here. This could be the foundation of a Emmy award winning movie!

I honestly enjoyed the story within the story.

Very honest emotions.

I really enjoyed this.

Have commented previously but must reiterate that you really need to do a sequel!

The previous version was one of my favourites anyway. I came back for a re-read and read your note. I read on with interest and may I simply say, "wow!", that was some emotional depth you packed in.

The writing is simply leagues ahead of what was already so good. Well done and thank you.

I believe I read this story a long time ago, as I recognize the attack on Paige in the alley. Most everything beyond that is new for me. This story is so moving, so well written, so beautiful that I know it is the best I have read anywhere! Thank you so much. 😘❤

CrackerTax

Just fantastic. Would love to hear more about how they get on. I loved it

This is simply an amazing read! I loved it the first time I read it, but this time had me grinning like a fool, near tears, and so very happy for them both at the end! I absolutely loved this! Please keep writing, I love your style!!!

This story is in my "Favorite's List" for a long time now and after reading it again; I'm pleasantly reminded why. Good Job S-Des!

A thoughtful guy who steps in when needed. A grateful family who want to express how much they care. A bonus romance that blossoms in a most unlikely way. A bit of action, drama, tension, and emotional stress come together in a delightful love story.

Thanks

A good guy risks it all for a strange young girl and is rewarded with love. In my favorites.

The ultimate blind date. What a great story. 5 Stars

It was so good I really really liked it it was so good and keep it up since most of us like these good heartfelt stories other than those short stories which leave bad aftertaste after u remember it. I always remember your like stories to lighten and cheer up. Thank you and keep up your wonderful work

It kind of pissed me off that Sarah poured her heart out to Jeff and confessed her love for him a couple of times and he never once said it back! What the hell is that? Makes me think he used her!

Another fine Romance from a talented author. I knew early on that Sarah had some kind of facial disfigurement, but the PTSD from the incident that caused it was the real challenge for Jeff to get past. Thanks very much for your work here, and especially for this one. In my Favorites....

Great story! I've read some stories where authors wasted 11 pages. You did extremely well with only 6 pages. Best of all you left us wanting more!

SPOILER

i got really pissed off when i found out the entire topic they were dancing around was some sort of physical disfigurement rather than the sexual one. It makes the entir ething incredibly shallow. Oh how bad it is to be me because i have a scar on ym face and that's why i cant be with you... WHAT?

The hwole story was building to be deep meaningful, looking beyond the surface and the entire supporting cast fell into that category like a puzzle piece. so neat and with a perfect smile to boot. It just really disappointed me. The story hada great build and then shti.

JC

Before you criticize the work of others, I think you should probably think about how these fucked up comments of yours will affect how others perceive YOUR work, you stupid shit!

I have read this many times

I guess that says how much I like this work.

Ever notice the ones with the most catty things rarely leave their name.

For my money if you are not willing to say who you are and stand behind

your words, then don't waste my time and yours writing them down

Story turns me all mushy, as a Kenpo instructor I had fun with the fight portion, but it played well with the story. Well done, looking forward to my third read.

Just a suggestion JC. Try reading this story again. I don't think the scar is as shallow an issue as first it may seem. At the very least no young woman to wants almost the first thing her prospective partner learns about her to be that she has been brutally and savagely raped.

You are a writer, imagine what those feelings are for her. Then imagine that every day you wake up and look in the mirror you are reminded once again of that horrific moment in your life. With no external scar she could, perhaps, to an extent, hide from those feelings, perhaps even for a brief moment in time feel like she has forgotten.

But what would it be like to be faced with people looking and staring, kids asking. How could there be any sense of trust or love with all those feelings, self recriminations, self loathings, being thrown in some way or another back at her every day. She chose not to finish surgery to "Fix" her appearance, but rape is a vicious animal in and of itself. It twists the mind and the way we see ourselves. At the least she may have felt inside she deserved the continuing pain it caused.

I have no doubt it would be much more than just a scar to her. I don't believe the scar it self was the point. The fact that Sarah couldn't hide from it or hide it from anyone else seems more the point. No where she could feel safe to just "Be".

That was a very well written story- I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you!

Is just fucked up in the head. He feels worthless himself and he takes it out on others. I’ll bet he was the “bully” in school. Don’t pay any attention to him. My third read. Still very very good.

I absolutely loved the story and would love to read more about what happens later on down the road and especially the talk with dad.

Very fine story. I intend to follow your writings.

In addition to five (5) stars, I had to favorite this story.

I am one of those who is a stickler for grammar, spelling, and punctuation. However, in this story, there was such magic and energy that the minor errors blended in with Jeff, as if he was actually narrating the tale of how he came to know and love Sarah.

This story could be edited just a little and would be ready for publishing as a screen-play, perhaps. I can see an excellent romance.

Interestingly, I identified with Jeff. My wife of 40 years had a similar experience about five years before she met me. She still has trouble with intimacy, but I learned how to get her to release her defenses for me, though she is still very cautious of others. She is passionate and loving, but she needs to be reminded from time to time how much she is loved. Sarah had a physical scar, but many times, the scars that matter are not just the visible ones.

This was an amazing story that bears reading again and again. It was apparent that the author loved it, loved the characters, and took good care of all of them.

And as a side-note, I fell in love with both Paige and Jeff's sister, too. They are important elements of the tale. Thank you.

1 PR star

Wonderful tale. Touching and truly emotional without being too corny. The only thing I could say is that it ended too quick. I want more.

Please consider a second part

Maybe it’s because I am a Romantic at heart or because this story is so poignant that I wish I could have given it more stars. The entire story from beginning to end takes you on a journey that you enjoy like a roller coaster. I think that there is a Higher Power, whatever you perceive Him or Her to be, at work here. With stop starts they eventually come together like it supposed to happen in a Romantic Novel. Thanks for sharing this with us. I, Anthony Wilson, started reading this story on Boxing Day and have just finished it now 27 12 2017 here in Pretoria, South Africa. Will be reading some of you other stories if there are any!

This is actually a story with characters that have some depth too them, not just a sex romp.

Great romance story!

One of the best I've read!

Thank you again for this story. I just finished it for the fourth time, and I just don't get tired of it. Very well written. I don't think I've ever read a story here and even thought about starting over and reading it again, but I may right now. I know this is not the last time I'll read this. This story shows that a good romance doesn't need graphic sex on every page to make it great.

Thank You!

Or whatever your nameYOU ARE NOTHING MORE THAN A SAD BULLY. Your only input to anything is that sad little attempt at bullying, I guess everyone in theUK are not gentlemen or at lest polite.

doo u even attempt

1 star

I stopped in chapter one when you got political.. Too bad because it was a good story until then. I didn't rate it just because I didn't like your.depiction of liberals. No reason to give it a bad review, though.

This story was much more than about sex it was about hope new beginnings and love that's what makes this story so special my hats off to you you made me believe in finding someone that special

I’ve read it again and I have enjoyed it again. You have described how real love can blend two lives and indeed how some things, like scars can be so overwhelming, but really can mean nothing. Love can conquer all.

I've been on this site for 6 years and I have never felt compelled to post a comment. But this story is just so incredible, there's no way I couldn't. You are a master story teller and the way you made these characters come to life was amazing. Please, keep up the great work!

It's a short story so I do understand the unrealistic rush to sex which turns me off a bit. BUT the sex scene is about her and her possible feelings. It was done by a master of writing. I read every word. It wasn't a sexual turn on for the public, it was about her. Every reader and me wanted her to be free of her torment, to love and be loved. So well done. Thank You Author,

Johnny

A great story about the healing of a broken person who so desperately needed what Jeff was offering. Masterfully done.

i usually hate white knight stories .

thanks for this .

I loved it

one of the very best. this is the second time I have read it. Keep writing .

Literally had tears, don't know why but this was the most romantic story I've read and most heart touching too...

I just loved this story. It grabbed and kept my attention throughout the entire story. It had excellent flow and a great plot. Now I'm going to have to read the rest of your stories. I hope they are as good as this one.

I didn't know how I missed this story!! I can relate personally to Sarah after the revelation so I'm touched. And the writing isn't excessive or overdone. Will look for your other stories and hope to find more gems!!

This story is simply superb, can't find anything negative about it.

Will be trying more of your stories,

Tanhors and family.

Incredibly romantic story!

My sister reacted very much the same way... she no longer trusted men.. painted them all with the brush that only should have been for the guy who kidnapped and repeatedly raped her. She was lucky that he'd kept her blindfolded so she never knew where she was or what he looked like. Otherwise, he'd probably have killed and buried her somewhere and she'd have been just another missing teen. Because I was her sixteen year old brother, a year younger than her, she didn't put up any defenses against me, the way she did every other male... including dad, our uncles, my buddies, her friends' brothers and their fathers. It was strange because, with me, she'd quietly come to my room at night, climb into my bed, latch onto me and cry her heart out. After a month of that, she rubbed her pussy against my hard on and asked me to fuck her so she'd have a different memory of what sex is like. She didn't know that I was going to give her over nine inches of thick sausage to blot out the bad memory, give her four juicy comes and an addiction to being fucked with her brother's cock. It's a damned good thing that she was taking birth control and that they worked because, during the next two years, she got one or two doses of my sperm squirted into her every night and one or four more during the day, when we were home alone.

Then we got jobs six hundred miles from home got a two bedroom apartment that we shared the rent on. We bought a wedding ring set at a pawn shop so the neighbors think we're married. We've been happily coming home to for the last three and a half years and now she wants her 'husband' to get her pregnant. I kissed her and fucked her deeper and harder when she told me that so she threw her birth control in the waste basket. So far, nothing but we're not worried about it. We'll just keep doing what we do and we'll make some half brothers and sisters.

BTW... I found out who raped her after his attempt to snatch another girl got foiled and they got his license number. He gave a b.s. story and had no record so he beat the charge but I knew what to look for from little tidbits that my sister had remembered. I did a daylight break-in and his place was set up perfectly to stash a prisoner. I found enough stuff to convince me that he was the motherfucker who'd raped my sister so I waited till he came home from work and made HIM a prisoner. The baseball bat on his shins, knees, arms, elbows, hands and shoulders finally made him decide to give me the details of how he'd chosen my sister.

That's all I needed to hear. He''ll never rape anyone again. He was found two days later with multiple broken bones and his skull caved in by an unidentified blunt object. He wasn't breathing so they eventually buried him. (They questioned the hell out of the family of the girl whose rape attempt had been prevented)

We lived over six hundred miles away. My sister honestly knew nothing about any of what had happened so, when she was eventually questioned, she looked like she didn't know what the fuck they were talking about or why they'd be talking to her.

Damned if I know why they never asked to talk to me. ME??? I was woodchuck hunting with one of my work buddies, that weekend. (I was covering for HIM cheating on his nasty bitch wife so he'd agreed to verify my story to keep from being taken to the cleaners in a 'for damned certain' divorce. {he knew where I was really going and why}... The best part is that he ended up finding out that SHE was cheating. I got him rock solid photo and video proof and he's divorcing HER ass.)

As for this story, "Hero's Reward", I gave it 4 stars. Good but not Great.

Awesome read keep up the good work.

Such a difficult and prickly subject that was dealt with incredibly well, especially raising the emotional issues that the characters had to deal with. Great writing and I'll be checking out some more of your stories soon.

I know that this was written a while ago and you haven't been very active in the past 5 years or so but I hope you are still writing as you've clearly got an aptitude.

Absolutely realistic story telling.

Loved the plot.

Loved it, one of the best I've read here, pleasa continue.

Ya

Loved it, perfect, I hope there's more to this story, , I look forward to seeing more

I would put this within the top 20-25 stories I’ve read here on Literotica (and I’ve probably read 700-800... remember, there are literally tens of thousands of stories here).

As someone said, this would make a great screenplay. A small independent movie with Ryan Reynolds as Jeff, (and since this is a “dream team” of actors time is independant) a younger Tina Fey (who does have a scar and is yet beautiful) or Helen Hunt as Sarah, and a very young Meg Ryan (Top Gun era) as Paige. I guess if Meg Ryan is Paige it’d make more sense for Helen Hunt to be Sarah as they could be sisters.

And this JC person; doesn’t he/she understand PTSD? Hell, ex-GIs still suffer from it 50 years later (my dad said it took 10 years before an unexpected bang didn’t make him want to dive for cover. A backfire is not the first thing he thinks of, but incoming rounds. And he was almost alway “behind the wire”. The guys that were in the field...). Imagine being sexually assaulted, then cut up, then having a reminder EVERYTIME she looked into a mirror, and everytime she noticed someone flinch or stare. What a dork.

Also, about surgery. Didn’t JC catch that Sarah stopped surgerys when she thought they would financially strap the family? And by the time she got a “good job”, and might be able to afford them herself, she’d had the scar for 5 or 6 years. It had become a part of her. A part that hurt, but a part of her inner being (physically and psychologically). Again, what a dork.

It's wonderful if only to read that such a person exists who is able to view someone's inner beauty and not just be superficial. Well written....though I wish you had written a bit more of Paige meeting them the next morning and Jeff's conversation with Stephen....it would have been more deep and beautiful. Nonetheless one of the good stories that I've read.

Love the story, read it for the 2nd time and i love the story! Love the fact that it is not just sex, but a deep desire between two people! Keep writing, you defenately got my vote!😀😀😁😁👍👍

Really love ur story it was wonderful!!!!!!!!

You brought tears to my eyes at the mid-point of your tale, then was your reveal prior to the mandatory and satisfying erotic/sex scene. To say that I loved it would be an understatement. Thank you for a well written and lovely little slice of life. You done good!

This story is a good read. Congratulations on a job well done.

Enjoyed it greatly, one of the best. ...

I’m in the process of rewriting my first story because I was so unhappy with the negative comments, except for the fact that they were correct. I hope that I can achieve the same degree of success in the new version of my story as you have with this one. By the way I read the original one some years ago and thought it was great.

Woodbgood

Only one other storyteller has touched me as much as you have. I shall have to find more from you. Very moving

I have only ever been so moved by the stories of one other author. I never truly thought I would find some one who wrote in such a manner again. Thank you for your story, it was deeply touching.

You created a very touching and also emotional story that was FANTASTIC!

outstanding! One of the best five or six stories on here. Anyone who doesn't love this story needs a competent shrink.

Had a great good friend of mine who got raped

Lucky both her and husband had fortitude to deal with it

Story covers part of it and reminder the rapist left

And hero to be at the end

Thank you so much for another stunning story. I loved it! KUDOS

Thank you for a very pleasant and well written story. Not many as good as this on Literotica. Congratulations and hoping for more from you!
