for A country Christmas4/23/2004 c7 r-sparkle
*bouncing up and down* i really really really like this story! i think it's... gosh, words cannot describe. You've been on my author alerts for yonks, and i keep on getting alerts about this story and i just say "m, maybe not" but TODAY i DID read it... argh! I can't believe i waited for so long! it's brilliant, amazing, so so so well written, interesting, great plot line to boot. I love the way you contrast the city wih the country... i mean, i used to live in country england with rolling fields etc, and now i live in inner western sydney, by the water. it's mental, but i LOVE the way you've portrayed it all - and how Halley has forgotten everything about her country life. I mean, it's hard to forget important things in your past, but she's obvioulsy been through a lot (which we finally found out in this last chapter!). the relationship between her and her parents is obviously very complicated... i wondr if she'll end up with the ranch. and shawn, gosh... he seems like such a good guy, but but but it also seems as if there is something else going on there. is there? i guess we'll find out sooner or later. i'd prefer sooner, but hey.
Thankyou for such a brilliant story! please please please write another chapter... dont rush it but PLEASE! i think im addicted, lol. I've always loved your stories, but this one is my favourite!

Hello! This was a great chapter. I was so overjoyed to check and to find that you updated this fic. I also like the interactions between Shawn and Halley. I'm glad that Halley allowed Shawn to explain himself. Mark and Halley will eventually have serious problems in their relationship because he is too commited to his job. So his job takes priority over his relationship with Halley. There should be a healthy balance between the two. This is an awesome fic. I've never heard of a horseback riding competition where you cut cow from a herd. I'm a suburb girl so this is all new to me. Later...

This is a great story. I love it the female character is smart and successful. I'm glad that Halley patched things up between her and her dad. Keep up the great work. I'm surprised that you haven't received more reviews for this story.

OK She was good to leave. What a bastard just leaving her like that. Oh yeah by the way im joining the army. I would be pissed off too! Talk about a jerk. And i would cry as well. I dont think i would get over it in 6 years either. . . kinda sounds like well it does sound like they were really really in love. Well boys are idiots. They all hail their mighty idiot gods and grunt at eachother. I dont think that made any sense, but oh well. its 11 and i need to do hw. So UPDATE SOON! Ive enjoyed being able to read it all at once, dont make me wait to long. . .
