I didn't think you could bring the story together, but you did. I sort of stopped reading for awhile, because I thought you might be losing control of the plotline, and it was dragging you instead of you directing it. But- this is so nice, you really tied it ALL together. This is a long story, and it is hard for authors to maintain the same level of excitement throughout every chapter- I liked reading your story SO MUCH! Every chapter was intriguing.
