It was nice to see an update, and so soon after I read the preface and first two chapters! I am very interested to see where this leads, and I admire the research that has gone into it. Bravo to you!

Just finished with the second (third) chapter, and I believe that this is going well! Really looking forward to an update. As to the identity of the young strawberry blonde, I have no clue. There are only three references to redheaded females in the HP books that I can think of, and they are Ginny and Molly, and once Tonks turned her hair bright red in OotP.

Wow! You had me at hello! Just kidding. Anyway, interesting start to an interesting challenge. You definitely have planned things out carefully, and definitely seem to know where you're going with this. Onto the next chapter.

Again, lovely! Another triumph! I'm looking forward to see how the couples evolve, and your treatment is once again very regency. Good job!

Ah, what a nice chapter! I'm happy that things appear to be progressing, and I like the pretense of paying court to her. I wonder what dear Draco's mum will think of the competition. Haha! I look forward to your next update and don't mind the wait. I know other things are more important!  

Absolutely beautiful story! I really enjoyed the Platonic journal articles.

An excellent chapter, dear. I loved the talks each had. I did especially like the kindred spirit bit with Snape and Hermione. Hehe... I love that Snape and Malfoy are fibbing to Narcissa. Sneaky! Teehee Won't Daddy Lucius be surprised!

Sorry, I was out of town for the last update, so I got updated two chapters at once, and it felt really good!

 I can totally understand why your fiction is so very recommended by the maintainers of this site, you write so wonderfully and eloquently that I feel my reviews just aren't enough! This story is magnificent and captivating and perfect for the not so hidden Regency-Era Trashy Romance Novel Reader that I am. I can't wait for more updates. I can't wait to see what Lord Sterne gleans from his reflections on Lord Orthod's behavior.

This chapter appears to have lost all paragraph formatting. I'd be very grateful if you fixed it. Thanks.

Again, lovely. I appreciate your attention to the details of the time, and how you've done your research. Quite good, indeed. Your weaving of the histories in is to be commended as well. Cannot wait for more! ~Fen

I liked how well you explained things, it is very informative, and was rather correct. :) Good job.

Excellent story...very well thought out and written. I enjoyed it. I especially enjoyed reading about the meanings of the flowers. Thank you! Congrats on a job well done!

Tied up the ends nicely. Thank you for a very enjoyable read.

I like the way you've changed the story (Devil's Cub) and made it more complicated.

No vase of water then? Can't stop. More to read.

Ooh! Sterne is so het up. Gosh, what will he do I wonder. As Miss Granger is about to ruin her reputation, I should think Sterne will feel beholden to do the honourable thing. Off to find out...

Uh,oh! Trouble brewing. I can smell it.

What a lovely ending to a brilliant story. Thank you so much for posting this. I truly adore it. I enjoyed how everyone turned out.

Ah but I do love a jealous Snape. Teehee

Nice job with the War of the Roses/Cousins.  Garswoth is an anagram of Hogwarts, and the only thing I could come up with for Dunseof is Son-Feud, a fitting name for the power struggle within the family.

The titles are absolutely inspired.  Sterne, Glare, Carsm-Blundt, Linchpin and Waryderry!  Brilliant!  Dumbledore's were great, too.  Of course, Skint of Kind vies with Carsm-Blundt as my favorites.  Yes, it was a long introduction, but it has prompted me to be very careful to remove any references to peerage in my own writing.  I can't possibly hope to keep all those things straight (I think Americans must be genetically indisposed to comprehending the intricacies of the system), so  I will go in a different diection.  One thing was not readily apparent to me:  What is an ape-leader? 

Well done, and onward!

I felt so sorry for him. I do hope she let's him explain soon. Can't wait for the next! Lovely.
