We should all get ripped off like this! Thanks for the thoughts on the series -- and, uh, sorry that I've so clearly traumatized you and taught you to fear me. *g* Really, I like happy endings! And I'm thinking this might be a happier story than some I've written, if it makes you feel better -- although I admit these things sometimes take a particularly nasty twist near the end when I write without a clear destination like I am now. So...no promises. *g* But, yes! They're all three so lovely, and I want to fix them just as much as you do!
