Thank you for the wonderful story. I share your affection for Carlisle. I really liked how difficult the formation of relations between Edward and Esme was written, Rosalie's manipulative nature, Emmet's mistakes... I'd be interested to know why your story doesn't mention the Cullen family's first visit to Forks and their encounter with the wolves. Anyway, thanks again for the great story.

Great story! It really felt like you understood Carlisle's struggles and inner conflicts that came with each new family member. Thanks again for your work.

Amazing. Simply breathtaking work. I loved every minute and was sad when it was over. Awesome job.

Rosalie has been mostly acting, manipulating people and things to her advantage. Esme and Carlisle not really seeing it and disbelief when Edward tries to tell them. Glad that Carlisle and Edward finally had a talk and found out he needs time too. Nice to know that Rosalie will find her Carlisle and lots sooner than Edward his Esme. Really don't like this Rosalie and little sympathy for her, brought too much on herself, too calculating.

Increase population beating on Edward and so many with dangerous thoughts - that would be weight on his mind. Set up for thinking a female vampire might be an answer to Edward's unpleasant mood.

Well, that was certainly a very different way for Esme to join the family. For me it is also a bit out of character for her and the background for her and Carlisle. The revelations are interesting concerning both Carlisle and Edward. All well written and consistent within your story.

Nice look at Edward & Carlisle meeting and eventual transformation.

I would simply like to say thank you. Just for introducing the rest of the famile in such a kind art and make them known to us in totally new form. Its like hearing stories from our own familiy of former times... well told!

Thank you for the beautiful and heartwarming story which I finished reading today. I don't have the words to adequately describe what it meant to me or how much I enjoyed it. I can only say I appreciate how much of your time and effort must have gone into it and the results are outstanding and an absolute reading pleasure. I expect that as an author you would value a critique which enables you to continue to hone and improve your skills unfortunately I am not in a position to do that for you. I loved everything about it. The characterisation, the scenarios proposed, emotions solicited, dialogue, the research and technical descriptions, your amazing vocabulary - I didn't want it to end. Thank you so much.

I enjoyed your story very much. You have great insight into some of the things that might have molded them, individually, and together as a family. Here, and there, throughought the story, you have written some truly beautiful words, thoughts and phrases, even whole paragraphs.

As far as Carlisle goes, I don't think it's really up to Stephenie. I think Esme would have a lot to say about your feelings for her husband!

I found this story while surfing this site. I found it to be well written and very enjoyable. I don't know if you are still writing or not but I'm going to check out your profile.

amazing and wonderfull, I love Carlisle and I was wonder myself about his toughts. Thank you, for this amazing idea!

So, i'll admit, I reall don't review on FF as much as I really should . But I kinda feel like I NEED to review your story . I normally don't stray much from the normal Bella/Edward POV but I just couldn't not read this . I read it in one afternoon and it is quite possibly one of the best FF's i've read . Its so articulate and real, even though its about mythical creatures, and you actually write about the struggles that they would all have that wern't covered in the books . Especially the Edward/Esme part . Wow, this is the longest review i've ever done so i'll stop now but I will def be reading the sequel and some of your other stories :)
