This story was much more to my taste than its predecessor. I apologize for the rants I gave to you and hope you are not permanently discouraged. I see that I badly overreacted to the first story, thinking it would be continued in this chapter. I apologize and hope that we no longer dislike one another. I guess the stories are of individuals with the ship as a common thread, or perhaps there is another thread I have not picked up on yet.
Please accept my apology if you wish.
I never write anonymous comments.
Open mouth. Insert foot. Bite.
I did not know that Annabelle was Margaret's daughter, and Kathleen was Anna's daughter, until I read it through again. There are a lot of things I didn't know.
Well, you have done what I thought was impossible and made what seemed like a hopeless story into a great one. There are still a few points I need to check on.
Congratulations for a job well done.
i read part 1 and cried (yes im emotional like that) i was very upset it had such a sad ending. this totally justifies it. i loved this story. the one thing i would suggest you work on is the dialogue. the content is good but some of the grammar and word
placement very confusing. additionally the differentiation of characters speaking needs work. especially at the beginning of part one and ending of part 2 when the names overlap and get confusing. (anna, anna/annabelle, anastasia)
Good story, but seemed to have so many gaps, so many unclear transitions. I had to keep going back to try to find out how the characters got from one place to another. Many times I never figured it out. Needs a lot of editing.
I surely need to reread both stories. I loved the first one but was in tears at the ending. when I started the second one, I had no clue as to the connection. after reading the comments I have a better understanding. what a complex and detailed story. I will definitely reread now with better understanding. the characters now make sense. both are beautiful stories yet a little confusing. especially the second one. without the comments, and a second read of chapter 2, I would have been lost.
looking forward to what you have coming up next.
thank you for your creativity.

I absolutely love this story and I found the twist at the end delightful. I am looking forward to a sequel to see how the couples fair in their new relationships and new country. Challenges are bound to arise. Ooh! Can't wait.
