I, apparently along with many others, enjoyed this story immensely. So much so that I felt obliged to register and give my first review of anything ever. Viv's open and direct style is quite distinct from Tolkien's authorial voice, but this just serves to make Eowyn's experience all the more accessible and juicy to the 21st century reader. The only inconsistency with my expectations I found in reading this was that Eowyn had managed to keep secret and safe her own little grotto within Helm's Deep - a device so well used by Viv that it is forgiven (contrast though to the humorous search for privacy in Knight's Service/Later on storiesofarda.com). The sex struck me not for its explicitness compared to other adult Middle Earth tales – maybe I’m more of a pervert than I realised - but for its erotic appeal; its credibility as a fulfilling encounter.
There's no point writing a twee sex scene. This is a screw I'd genuinely like to have. In fact it reminds me of the time... |

Hi Viv!
Even though I'm a die hard Aragorn and Arwen fan, I found this story really interesting. I usually stay away from Aragorn/Eowyn fics. But this one really intruiged me. I'm really glad I read it!
I liked how you really explored the character's emotions. It was believable, and well written. Also what I really wanted to commend you on was doing a beautifully written sex scene. It wasn't cheesy, or trashy. It was descriptive in a way that really lent to the mood of the story. It built up the story. I just love it when authors write descriptive love scenes that also have a great deal of depth to them.
I loved how you wrote Aragorn, and Eowyn. |

May I only say... Inspirational? That's the word, no? 
Loved it. Years after the movies had come out, you did inspire me to dust off the DVDs. Thanks! |

Wow.... beautifully written! I agree with Cuthalion in that this isn't 'smut' as many said in their reviews, but 'erotica'.
I could see a really interesting sequel to this. |
