This right here is myabe my favourite line ever

““I didn’t go into any of my marriages thinking they’d fail, but I knew…” Dave paused, unsure exactly how to explain his point to Spencer.Right from the start, I knew I wasn’t a man worth staying with for the long haul.” Spencer looked stricken at such an assessment and shook his head, ready to defend Dave against himself. “The only decent man I’ve ever been,” Dave quietly continued. “Is the man I am with you.”

It's like a perfect treasure to read and adore, infact I'm gonna read it again right now I loved it so much. It's only 7300 words and yet you showed us their hearts.
thank you.
I hope Reid and Rossi speak to you some more because I'm already longing for the next part.

What a great note--thanks so much for taking the time! I'm glad you liked the story--hopefully there's a few more percolating!

As usual, this is funny and delightful and cute and over way too soon. Thanks so much for writing more - I so look forward to them. Both your Spencer and your Dave are brilliantly characterised.

I'm not even really a Reid/Rossi fan (more of Hotch/Rossi girl, even though Rossi and Reid together a college recruitment in Masterpiece is one of my favorites this season) But the awesome thing is that great writing like yours shines through and can be enjoyed regardless of ship preference, and I went beck to read the earlier parts and you make me really care about them in these stories.

I love Rossi, and you do a really great Rossi in this story arc -- snarky and cocky and a car snob and clothes snob... though one wonders what the heck he was thinking showing up at the BAU in jeans on his first day back. (!!)

You did a great job creating Rossi's family and backstory, and Paulie is made of awesome: "Yep, already had Dave’s baby out for a spin...What? Of course I mean the car..."

Looking forward to more from you!

Thanks so much for such a kind note!

I figure Rossi may have worn jeans but they were probably $500 jeans! :p

I love this series. I really enjoy how you expand the family outwards with the Rossi's and how Reid gets drawn in.

I also love how your stories make me laugh. Thanks.
