Oh, this is absolutely beautiful. I love all of it, but especially:

But he can't help finding her beautiful in all walks of life - with every emotion that curls around her face and every side of her - even this side, the one that makes him ache for her - vulnerable and wanting and turning to him for comfort when she doesn't know what else to do.

Really lovely.

Thanks! It's probably weird saying this, but that passage is probably my favorite as well.

I don't think that's at all weird! I almost always have a favorite line or two in stuff I write...

What a gorgeous moment. Quiet moments like this get me all the time, they're my weakness. :P Very lovely. I could see this happening at the end of this entire case.

Quiet moments are a favorite of mine to write, so they're a weakness of mine as well.

Thank you for the sweet comment.

Thank you for such a sweet comment. I've been working on my descriptive writing, so I'm so very happy it painted a picture for you.

And I think that's my first *faint.*

Awesome. :)
