@DeeDee1622 Thank you, I really appreciate that.

@j_chrys there’s absolutely no need to apologize. You feel how you feel and you have every right to express your POV.

@leighjona8 interesting. The little teases about Gabriel and possible divorce talk before everything blew up have me so curious. Something tells me I may be back to hating Cam lol
            
            Thank you again for taking the time to respond and for sharing all your amazing stories with us.
            
            I see Cole is about to finally get sum sum ;)

@DeeDee1622 As for whether Cam asked for the divorce, that will come up in a few chapters, though it might not be the answer you’re expecting. And when it comes to the reality check, it wasn’t just for him. It applied to both of them.
            
            Sloane is really the heart of this story. She’s the key character, and everything revolves around her. The choices, the fallout, the healing... it all centers on her journey.

@leighjona8 people who haven’t taken a hard line stand already understand your messaging. Those that have won’t be able to see beyond the cheating.  It’s a sticking point, I get it. It’s the ultimate betrayal. In their eyes, he doesn’t deserve grace or forgiveness. So, yea, I usually try to stay out of the fray. But this story has pulled me in and I’ve found myself needing to defend and explain. I was also irked by some of the comments about Cam - needy, wimp, can’t handle a strong woman. Because he wanted to emotionally connect with Sloane…I thought we wanted men to be more emotionally available? 
            
            Please no to adding more Evie/cam scenes. I couldn’t stomach the one we got. I can’t even read that chapter again without wanting to puke. I think it actually makes sense he’d break it off quickly.  I think he was living in a cloud of hurt and justified the cheating by convincing himself Sloane didn’t love him and wouldn’t care. When he realized that she did care and he was the reason she was now hurting, it was a reality check. The moment he realized his mistake and chose not to compound it?
            
            Thank you for answering my questions. Why he didn’t just initiate divorce before cheating is a question that bothered me as well. Aside from the obvious reason that he’s an ahole, I think it would have been hard for him to just simply walk away. And divorce talk leaves the door open to working things out and the cycle starting over again. Women who have been cheated on always have that one that moment when they (unfairly) think “what did I do wrong?”. But I think, in this case, Sloane needed to have the self reflection, to really think about the what’s and why’s of her words and actions. She used Cam to keep the demons away, now she’ll have to finally face them. Cheating can never be justified but here I think it serves a purpose and propels Sloane toward healing.

@DeeDee1622 I have already added many real-life incidents, and the Karwa Chauth one will also be inspired by a real-life incident.

@DeeDee1622 I think I understand your point, but the reality is that pure realism often comes across as bland in the world of fiction.
            
            Real life, for the most part, is bland. While it certainly has its heartfelt moments, it's largely a relentless race for survival. Many things, and people, get left behind. We become engrossed in our own daily struggles, and those who've been left in the past are often only remembered when something related to them surfaces, or when a quiet moment allows their memory to resurface. This makes it crucial to infuse fiction with the dramatic touches that real life often lacks, to create a compelling narrative.
            

@panwarsha honestly, because it was based on real life I thought it’d run a realistic course. They are married they’re tied together for life, it’s silly to think they wouldn’t develop feelings but I thought those feelings would be born out of respect and care. A comforting love. And Brinda would always feel a sense of incompetence - of what could have been, should have been. 
            
            That real life selfless man. He sacrificed his life for his brothers family. He vowed not to have kids with his brothers wife and he was always uncle to his kids. Why? I think it was out of love and respect for his brother. A true man. A true loving brother. Because life doesn’t always give us what we want or what we may deserve. Sometimes we have to make sacrifices for the people we love at the sake of our own happiness.

I know I have to get used to it, being an author who writes cheating stories  They brought out a lot of emotions in readers. But I’m doing good. Thank you for the encouragement ❤️

@leighjona8 ❤️
            Thank you for entertaining our questions and our craziness :p we can get *too* invested in characters at time and instead of walking away, some get angry when the story doesn’t go their way. Don’t let the negativity discouage you.

@Ankita_RoyX I don’t think the story was ever published anywhere else. It’s an old story she’s re-editing and republishing. It’s 77-78 chapters long (including epilogue and bonus chapters). 
            
            Mehmal and zaryab end up back  together but it’s a long road. Emir and Elif reunite as well

@panwarsha ❤️

@flutterby1616 And yes, the suggested account is really amazing. 
            
            Thankyou once again ✨

@flutterby1616 Ohhhh ☺️ thankyou so much ❤️, I downloaded pinterest, I never knew it has this much great images. 
            
            

@leighjona8 ❤️

@flutterby1616 Thank you... you had me worried there for a moment. I truly appreciate your support 

@leighjona8 
            I’m good no worries. Thanks for checking in, just needed to step back.
            
            I want to clear something up. I would never ever want or expect a woman to take back a cheater. I hated Cole and fully expected to hate him till the end. But that’s the beauty in good writing. It has the power to change perspective, to not just see things in black and white. Continue to do what you’re doing. You’ll always have my support.
