oh WOW.
I admit I have read two or three of your stories before, though I've never actually submitted a review...but this one caught my eye even more than others and I just HAD to write something!
I really really love the way you portray Lothiriel; I always admired such women in any kind of stories...Eomer is Eomer, as you said, *g* and we'll have to wait and see how he felt about this all hehe! I can't wait for another update!

I can't wait until the next chapter; you definitely have me on the edge of my seat. I love all of your different takes on the Eomer/Lothiriel relationship. There are just so many possibilities for this couple and I am so glad that you have entertained us so greatly imagining them one by one. Great start to this one, I'll be watching anxiously for updates.

I'm very happy to see an chapter 2 so soon. You've got me very worried for poor Lothiriel. I liked the characterization of Eowyn, and of how protective she is of her brother. This version of Lothiriel seems to be quite reserved and in control, I think it is a good fit with a girl of her position who has been raised to rule over people. I hope that Eomer can come to break down some of the walls she seems to keep up. Speaking of walls, I loved the conversation with Aragorn and how she allowed someone to see how she truly felt. I also really liked the addition of the new handmaiden. The fact that Lothiriel personally allowed her to come seems to be an admission of how much she would like to be in a loving relationship, and maybe the hope that her own journey to Rohan might turn out well. I love how you captured her thought process. With many months to think of her future husband I like how she takes what little she knows about him and uses it to fantasize about her new life. The images of his large, warrior hands or his low voice become especially poignant when she imagines what it would be like for those hands to touch her or for his voice to speak endearments. Anyways, I'll stop babbling now. Looking forward to the next chapter Smile smiley face

wow, you definitely have a great way with Eomer/Lothiriel stories *g*! I love the second chapter, makes me realise how women in such positions could have felt...I just hope Lothy doesn't put up too much of a struggle for Eomer..what can I say, I'm a romantic by heart, lol!
great job, can't wait to read more! *goes to re-read*

I really like how you let us get to know Eomer through her eyes.
As usual, the subtle hints about growing feelings are pure candy.

A most pleasant way to end a day (reading this)

Just read chapter 3. I must say that I love blunt Lothiriel. The banter between her and Eomer is hugely entertaining. It was great to get to meet Leod, that couple is so cute and in love; they definitely brought a smile to my face. As always, can't wait til the next chapter. This story is progressing so well and has a great tone and pace.

Yay! Chapter 4! It was great to see the tender side of Eomer. Awww, he spoils his dog. I love the description of his voice, so full and manly...very hot. Most of all, I'm very excited because we get to see the wedding soon, and then...the much anticipated wedding night. It's got to be tough on her. Eomer seems very nice so far, but she still doesn't really know him, and that's a lot of pressure to put on a girl. This is what makes my heart break just a little at the end of this chapter when she wishes for her mother to hold her hand. Poor Lothiriel, in a strange land, on her own. Then again, I can't feel too sorry for her because, let's face it, Eomer is pretty hot stuff. Looking forward to the next chapter Smile smiley face

ooooh neat! *squeals at seeing tender side of Eomer*
again, you've beautifully portrayed everything around the characters, their emotions and such. I can't wait to see what happens on the wedding night! Lothy still doesn't know him...and *sigh* if she'd stop thinking about that breeding stock, life would be sooo much easier for her! lol
great chapter, can't wait to see more!
