"...until the day Andrea Sachs came back into her life and made her believe that she did." *melts* You are one of the best writers that I know and I am sooooo glad that you have taken the plunge into this fandom!!! WELCOME!!! This story is amazing so far and I can't wait until you post the other parts!!

Oh, this sounds like it is going to be good. I love it so much. I hope there will be more soon.

[mercurial_muse]

There will definitely be more! I already have six or seven parts completed, but I'm going to let a day or two pass between parts so that I have time to finish the whole story. Thanks for reading, and I'm glad you're enjoying it so far.

I feel that this is gonna be seriously good indeed.
Loved this chapter and how it made me understand more about Miranda and why she gave up on romance... Gosh if this chapter was great then I bet the next one will be awesome! :D
Brilliant and I hope to read more soon :D

[mercurial_muse]

Thanks for saying this chapter is great, and I too hope the next one is awesome! I'd certainly hate to let anyone down.

Loved it! You have nothing to be nervous about.

I like how you gave Miranda's reasons for marrying time and time again. With Husband 1, she truly loved him but also lost him due to her ambitions. Number 2 she was in love with? Or more in love with the idea of having that romance. And with Stephen, you have Miranda settling for some sort of intimacy. So what makes Andrea special?

Can't wait for more!

[mercurial_muse]

Yes, Miranda was in love with husband number one. With the second one, I'm not sure if she really loved him or if she was just kind of thumbing her nose at the consequences of the deal she'd made. It would be like her to test those limits, wouldn't it? I think that, by the time she married Stephen, the reality of a lifetime of loneliness had set in and she settled for getting whatever she could from him for however long it lasted. What makes Andy so special? That's a damn good question, and one I actually hadn't put a lot of thought into before now. I guess what makes Andy different is that Miranda knows that she shouldn't want anything from her at all, shouldn't allow herself to love her, but ends up doing just that anyway.

Thanks so much!
