Dramatic ... and perfectly in character. It's exactly how I would expect Jarod and Miss Parker to behave under the circumstances. I look forward to seeing what happens next.

Author's Response: Sorry for taking so long to reply. Still trying to catch up with what happened while I was on holiday.
Anyway, I'm glad the story works for you so far and that you think I got the characters ok *happy grin*. Thanks for telling me so!
