Oh, this is a delight! Buffy and Spike are cutely hot, Anya is a riot, and your Willow and Xander made me all nostalgic for their supportive S5 selves. Thank you!

Wow!!! That was incredibly, almost unbearably HOT!!! I really really like this story, and this rendtion of Spike and Buffy. When they don't push each other so hard, they seem so perfect for each other, and you are doing a great job of that. I also like the older, wiser vamp being very assured and able to bring Buffy along for the ride~ like the placement of his hands on her back(oh, those hands!) and his gentle insistence that he get to finish what he started. (giggle, giggle) I like the way he can be self-conscious one minute, not wanting to come to the door because Willow and Xander were there, or when they get interrupted on the beach and his voice is shaky~ makes him more loveable. I really like your writing style, and this fic is very polished; no typos, probably unlike this review. ;) I can't wait to read the next set of chapters!

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I really had a great time writing this. I may have to do more fic in this style. And yes, it's definitely easier for Spike to put on the sauve when there's no one else watching :)

This is totally faulous. Your comic timing is incredible. Anya's comment about Spike taking money for amusement value had me laughing out loud. I think I'm a little in love with you now.

Author's Response: Oh my goodness, thank you! I'm a little stunned at the feedback I'm getting on this one. It's really making my day. So glad you enjoyed it!

Loving it so far... enjoy this with Spike and Buffy.. fun.

Will have to try some of your other fics even though you say this is different. Sometimes get tired of the
depressed and flayed Spike.

Author's Response: Thanks. My Borrowed Time stories are a bit more solemn, but Joyce is still around in those, so things are not so dire as on the show. I hope you'll enjoy them.
