Well, I hope you've read the end by now???   Sorry you didn't like the beginning.  Thanks for taking the time to leave me your thoughts though.  I do appreciate it.

Here's the teaser I promised.

~0~

The last two months had been a tornado of unexpected events.  Events that had completely changed my future.  Gone was the naïve shy girl from northwestern Washington, instead a confident and on my way to being worldly woman sprang in to take her place.  I wasn’t sure where this new persona had been hiding, but I sensed that she’d been inside me all along, just waiting for the right moment to break free of the chains that I had shackled myself to.  

When I got a call from Alice a week after Edward had broken my heart into smithereens, I thought it was a joke.  She dialed into my office line direct, a number I’d never given Edward.  When she told me who she was, I almost hung up on her thinking she was calling to make excuses for her brother.  Instead she promised not to even breathe his name until I gave her permission.  And as of yet, I never had.

We’d had lunch later that week and the bomb that fell out of her mouth, sent my world spinning off axis and the shrapnel flying into every aspect of my life. 

Thanks for the review.  Yes, Edward isn't the knight in shining armor here, is he?  LOL

I hope to have part 3 posted in a week or so.
