I liked the story despite Tatia drama until this chapter. It kinda seems complacent to not finish the story with how she forgives him and more about what happens after he found out about her pregnancy. It's almost like a cliffhanger. Didn't Rebekah tell Klaus to give Tatia a home, and agree with letting Tatia move into his house? But then she lets out her frustration about Klaus falling for Tatia's false pregnancy even though she told Klaus to man up at the beginning. I didn't follow that. I did love that Gatsby was incorporated but he should have been more nicer since he doesn't want to cause any trouble with anyone. Also, it was great how Caroline did not take Klaus back and stood her ground. I like that she sent divorce papers and that Klaus tried to get her back. I wish he made more of an effort though. Like cmon, you ignored your wife, flirted with a manipulative liar and helped kill your wife's dad! Overall, this was kinda a good story though. And what happened with Elena/Stefan/Rebekah? I don't think Caroline should have ran to Tyler every time she was avoiding Klaus though. But thank goodness nothing happened between Caroline and Tyler. Whew. Good thing the epilogue was a happy ending too.

I am sorry, but this story is just preposterous! You basically had Klaus rape Caroline and force her into an abusive relationship. I had such high expectations after reading the summary but I had to abandon it after Chapter 11. I wanted to pull my hair out. .At. . It was that bad.

I am sorry, but this story is just preposterous. I mean you basically wrote about how Klaus raped Caroline! I had such high expectations from

I loved this story, but I think the ending was too rushed. I think it would have been even better if you let the resolve and reconciliation play out and develop, rather than quickly call a happily ever after right after klaus found out she was pregnant. That was a big step in the plot, and I think dismissing it quickly with the last chapter kind of downgraded it. It felt like the readers emotions were abrubty dismissed- something you always want to keep in mind when writing a story (the readers emotions, response to plot twists, and likely thought process). Just a little constructive criticism. But other than that, it was well written. I enjoyed it.

TheReviewer chapter 18 . 1/2/2014
Positives:
- This story had one of the best plot lines I've ever read!
-You have a great writing style

Negatives:
Where to start?
- This was not a klaroline story.
- You skipped out all the required information
- The chapters were short
- The ending was completely unrealistic
- You left too much unnaccounted for e.g Did Rebekah end up with Stefan?
Who did Elena end up with?
What happened to Tyler?

- I can't possibly understand why Caroline would sleep with Klaus after he planned her fathers death.
- We don't know how Klaus convinced her to move in. I don't recall him apologising?

How you can improve:
- The plot was really good, but you can't skip out so much time! You went from 3 weeks to four months to a party to 'happy ever after'. It doesn't work that way. There are TOO many gaps in the story.

- Make your chapters longer. Give us all the details. Tell us her thoughts about Klaus. Tell us how she sat around crying, tell us about the conversations with her mother tell us more about Tyler.

- I finished this story in the same night. Literally, I never do that.
Rating 4/10

Whoa! Hold up. For all that its worth, Everything that the last reviewer said was True. Hurts that its true but its True.
Caroline will never forgive Klaus for killing her own father. Given the background that Bill and Caroline had a Wonderful father-daughter relationship. Bill loves his daughter so much that he chose his daughter for power. So I would have forgiven Klaus' conspiracy if Caroline's dad treated her badly, but Bill never did.
This story irks me. No love shared between Klaroline. All Klaus did was bed her. And what was the fuckin deal with Tatia? And who did Stefan end up with? Gah. To think that you even assured us that EVERYTHING'S GONNA WORK OUT IN THE END. JULIE PLEC IS THAT YOU?
I was totally rooting for Lockwood even or Gatsby. Like srsly, Explain yourself.

Okay, I made it up to chapter 16 and felt it was time to leave a review. I won't be finishing the read. Here's why: I both liked and hated your story. I liked it because it was different (I've never seen this plot point before), you write well, and it had a lot of potential. I hated it because I felt like it never reached that potential. Skipping the honeymoon and large gaps of time meant that I was cheated out of the characters' growth. I never saw them fall in love so I never believed it, and that sadly made the story fall flat. I felt like there was a lot of conflict and drama that wasn't explored, so when the final "I killed your father" came, it felt like a meh moment. I can't claim it was a terrible story-it isn't. It simply missed the emotional mark for me. That being said, I do hope you continue to write other stories, and wish the best of luck in the future.

Oh my god. You make me wanna pull all my hair out and scream.

(It's a good thing in case you were wondering)
I keep reading your AN where it says EVERYTHING WILL WORK OUT and I'm holding onto that because I seriously need some happy klaroline!

You built it up, to tear it down. The ending was just chucked in there really, shame.
