A wonderful chapter! I loved to see things working so nicely between the both of them. I never would have thought similar possible, I must confess *g* - but in your story, it's really and truly believable.

Author's Response: Thanks so much for letting me know. :) I'm glad you enjoyed this.

The parallels between Severus and Harry's love for Lilly and Ginny are brilliantly used here. Thanks for sharing!

That was great! Thanks.  (Is there more after "Happily Ever After?)

Nice story.  I liked that it developed into a real relationship and not just sex.  Harry should mention sometime that he'd like kids, but even if he doesn't, people live very happily without the little ankle biters running around.  I'm glad that Ginny was an adult about things.  It was nice not to see her flinging hexes and being angry.  Anyhow, thanks for sharing your work.  I enjoyed it.

I’m sure they both would do very fine with a child of their own. It was a very lovely story from beginning to end.

Whew!  They finally did it!

It's good to see it end in harmony (well, not that I had ever suspected otherwise). Thank you!

I like that Snape is the deorator out of the two, also that he chose to 'catch'. *snickers*  I think it's a nice side to his character. I believe most would look at Severus as wanting to dominate, this is a great change of pace. It's nice to show that power and strength can sometimes be found in letting someone else take control. =] Lovely story.

Well, that culminated spectacularly. Snarry is hard to make work, but you were able to build their relationship and give them a maturity and respect for each other that Snape and Harry don't often have in stories but what people who really love each other have. It was so nice to see all the sweet moments between them. Snape's transition from loving Lily to loving Harry was really well done. His past with Lily wasn't ignored or played down. It existed in canon, his love/obsession/whatever with her. You acknowledged it and used it. Same with Harry's feelings for Ginny. I thought the scene where Harry and Ginny broke things off was impressive. Harry's emotions were so raw, so real, and just what we should expect. Again, I loved the way Harry and Severus interacted with each other. A real smooth development.

I just read chapters 10&11 together, boy you're a  fast writer but  a brillant one . Thank you so much for this story I may read this ship again but only if it's done as well as this story.I have read all your ss/hg stories Just want to say thank you for this and them. I'm only a reader so until the past year I didn't think any one would want to hear a review  from me. I know now I'm wrong. Again many thanks

Okay now that was seriously hot!  I seem to be of the mind that it matters not who Severus is with as long as he finds happiness!

Nice ending... I would have liked to see Ginny settled down, but she's happy so all is well that ends well there.

Thanks for the very lovely and loving story.  I must confess that I was so eager to see how it all turned out that I went over and read the last few chapters at Snapely Holidays and then reread them here.  Just as good the second time.  Thanks for sharing.  JoAnne

One slashy epilogue, please!

This chapter was quite satisfying.  I can't believe Ron didn't blow up.

Awwwww I loved it when Severus said that he takes  commitment very seriously, like some sort of threat, or at least, warning. It's so much like him. I'm almost sad there is just the epiloge left. Weel, every good story must have an end *sigh*

Oh, of only people were that mature all the time in real life...

It is good they are taking it slowly. Neither of them has a clue what to do! :)

Ginny is smart.  She knew when she was beaten.

Rita is very toned back.  About time LOL :)

Oh! I really hope they adopt a baby. That would be lovely, wouldn't it? Of course, it's your story, and I trust your genius altogether! LOL I still can't believe you've made me root for their relationship. You could always go for a career in 'brain-washing'. I hear the CIA pays well! LOL  Lovely tale! *hugs*

I'm so gld for them because they both deserve so much to be happy. I just feel sad for Ginny. I can only hope she'll find someone good for her.
