Wow, thank you! It's...probably not something I'd have written without the safety of the "Be Shameless" directive. And if I'd tried, it definitely would have ended the other way. But it's Harlequin and it's fun and having it end the way it did was so terribly melodramatic I couldn't resist. :) (I love Ford. I used to know guys just like him.) I'm so very glad you enjoyed this!
