It's so great seeing where everyone is in life. I can't wait until Brooke confronts Ridge in person. I'm glad Eric sees the light and is ending his farce of a marriage. You do have me intrigued as to who Katherine's man is. Poor Mary, just as crazy as her mother. I'd be just as leery as Taylor at the thought of bringing another one of Shelia's kids into my house. Tom, Steffie, and Phoebe's relationship with Brooke is great! I look forward to the next chapter.

Tom, Steffie, and Phoebe's relationship with Brooke is great! I look forward to the next chapter. Yash, thanks for the kind words. I'm reading your latest story and really enjoying it. (I'll have some comments tonight or tomorrow, but I am working on SWIB feverishly right now.) Brooke will talk to Ridge in the next chapter. Eric has tolerated not having a physical relationship, but Stephanie not accepting Peyton coupled with her attitude toward Hope and the triplets is the last straw for him. The next chapter will also see a long "soliloquoy" from Eric where he admits his shortcomings, but concludes that he deserves more. In this story, Catherine is not the same actress as in the show. I have nothing against that actress, but she doesn't fit here. You will be learning more about her lover. Yes, Mary's craziness is going to be revealed in all its glory soon and more than one person will be in danger. The question is: Will Diana be a dangerous little girl or not? I think of the 50s movie 'The Bad Seed' when I think of these two, but that may change. Taylor adores James (I think they're a far better match than she and Ridge ever were.), but she has legitimate concerns and he is reluctant to face all of them. I never thought Bell dealt realistically with Taylor's return from the dead. (Gee, janice and normally he is so realistic!) It would have been hard for Taylor to relate to children who were so much older than when she left them. And hard for them to deal with her feelings. I am also convinced they would miss Brooke, Hope, and R.J. much more than they did on the show. And, lastly, in many ways they would relate more to Brooke as a mother than they would to Taylor. The love both women, but their relationship with Brooke is more real. Thanks for reading.

Chica,
I've been thinking seriously about a story that deals with that exact issue. I would imagine Brooke's relationship with Tommy, Steffie, and Phoebe to be exactly as you desecribed it.

Well my dear you certainly do have me wondering who Catherine's mysterious lover is. And all the secretcy has me wondering why it's such a hush hush relationship. Clandestine romantic interludes. Do tell girl! Something makes me think I might not trust this fellow.
Taylor is such a bitch, but even I feel sorry for her getting stuck with Sheila's brood. We already know Mary is a "nut bag", guess we'll just have to see how Diana's DNA faired. She doesn't exactly have charming parents.
I'm glad that Eric is going to finally end things off with Stephanie, it's long overdue that he break free from that harpie! I'm glad Coco didn't let her get to her and that Brooke & the professor dismissed her poison barbed tongue as well.
Which brings me to the Professor, he certainly is smitten with Brooke, and Brooke seems interested in him too. He definatly has some interesting baggage of his own as well.
I'm glad that Bridget invited Deacon. I can't really comment on Nick & Katie. I just hate the new Katie on B&B all two seconds that I've seen of her. I'm trying not to let it sour your Katie for me, but I'm already a little predisposed to disliking her. I'll try and give her a fair shake when we hear her conversation with Hope. Oh and I love how you have Hope as a little perfume addict too.
Great chapter! But you know I am patiently waiting on a new chapter of SWIB!

Oh and I love how you have Hope as a little perfume addict too. Great chapter! But you know I am patiently waiting on a new chapter of SWIB! The guy adores Catherine and would never intentionally hurt her, but he has some baggage and that is why she is being so secretive. But you will learn more about him and ultimately he will have a name. I don't like Taylor in this story, but taking in Sheila's kids is a lot to ask of anyone. Two things about Taylor in this story: she isn't falling for Stephanie's BS anymore and she pretty much has her act together (except for her feelings about Brooke, of course). Obviously, she has problems relating to her children because of the years they were separated. I think if Bell had to bring her back that would have been a great story for her, but he didn't go there. As I told Yash, Eric is going to deal with an in-depth emotional self-examination in the next chapter. Especially he will be reflecting on women he has lost because of his inability to walk away from Stephanie. The next chapter will have a little action (mainly between Peyton and Lauren) and a lot of characters musing about their lives. You'll learn more about the Professor, his attraction to Brooke, and what his baggage is. (Does it cause an insurmountable barrier to his feelings for Brooke?) Brooke will obsess over him a bit. In this story, my Bridget is Agnes Bruckner and she is a totally together and confident young woman. She adores Hope and has shouldered her responsibility for what happened between her mother and Deacon. I wanted that established early in the story. I agree with you about Katie on screen, but I am actually using Heather Tom as my Katie because I think she and Jack Wagner look striking together. She won't be around too much, but this day was too important for Hope not to have Nick be in touch with her. For as much as we see of her, I think you'll like her. Coco is tough, but sweet, and Tom adores her. I have Taylor's brood turning out so well largely because of Brooke's influence in the crucial period of their lives. I hope you are liking the twins more - they adore Brooke and are actually fond of Morgan. It's their blood parents they have issues with. (SPOILER: Watch for Taylor to lose her mind when Morgan mentors Phoebe in her development as a designer and Steffie emulates Brooke.) Thanks for reading and your thoughts. Thanks for your comments. (SWIB is coming soon. WARNING: There will be an abbreviated love scene you won't want to see. But don't worry, I will allude to it, more than describe it.)

That spoiler you have with Taylor sounds funny as all hell!
And I think I know what you're referencing in SWIB.
