ARGH!!!!! To stop there! I adore this story and can't wait for more! Thank you!

Ellen...

Brilliant ending.. (though I am stilkl standing at the cliff...)..

A wet and sexy Lizzy can work as well as a wet and sexy Darcy.. but would work better if both are wet and sexy..and together ... ..wowee..please tell us that the next one chapter is already available..(oopss...sorry dearie..I do hope that you are feeling better.. ..)

You read my mind!

ME TOO!!!

We're on the same wavelength!

We're on the same wavelength!

We definitely are, dear Julia. ...and it isn't the firs time.

I'm on that same wave length! Great Chapter! I really enjoy your writing style and was telling one of my co-workers that I would even buy a book if you had written one. What a way to leave a chapter! So much angst...ugh! Please post soon. :)

I would even buy a book if you had written one.

Thanks so much, Catrina. I'm hoping that someday...rather sooner than later....maybe after the kids head off to college...

Ellen, what a great twist. Can't wait to see if Elizabeth gets to take a dip!

A lovely chapter concluding with a great twist!
I am really enjoying this story.
Thanks

I was so hoping Chapter 17 (and eighteen) would be posted before I left on vacation. Ellen, I hope you're not still sick (and haven't forgotten you left us hanging on that cliff! ). Get well soon!! I hope there's a LOT to read of this wonderful story by the time I return.


Cheers,
Julia B

Julia, Mrs. Darcy has Chapter 17 in her hot little hands. If you're not leaving on vacation until the weekend, perhaps you'll have some happy thoughts to take with you.

WOOT!!!! Happy thoughts?? Can't wait for more Silver Dust!!!

Julia, if Mrs. Darcy is able to post tomorrow, I promise your birthday will be happy indeed!!!

Wishing you much joy on your special day, whenever it is!

Thank you, Ellen!

Cheers,
Julia B

Woohoooooooooooooooooooo!

R~~ <- off to check her mailbox

A little breathlessly I'm happy to announce that chapter 17 is up! Enjoy, dear fans!

And Julia, don't stay away too long! Can't wait to hear your stories and how you've been spoiled for your birthday by Mr Wonderful!

Cold water, hot passion and the naked truth. Great chapter Ellen! God Bless Mrs. R for sending that telegram!

Thank you Ellen and Renée!

Cheers,
Julia B

Wow! That Elizabeth is one confident young lady. I'm SO glad they were able to apologize to each other. I'm a little concerned that Georgiana sent the foreman out looking for her, though. News hasn't arrived about Lydia already has it? I'd love for these two to have a little more time together before anymore disaster strikes but then I am an angst weenie extraordinaire and would be stuck reading very short stories if you authors didn't ignore my whimpering! LOL Thanks for an action packed chapter, Ellen.

You take the words right out of my mouth, honey!

A wet and sexy Lizzy can work as well as a wet and sexy Darcy.. but would work better if both are wet and sexy..and together ...was my dream or fantasy ..but boy Ellen..you do really know how to put together words that became great legend.... ..that was awesome..I've never read such bold Lizzy and Darcy..and Caroline & Aunt Cat teaming up.......ohh boy..that's new...Well..please let their time in Pemberley be magical before some awful things visit them..like Caroline

THANK YOU

I love this story as I do everything from Ellen G.

Elizabeth and Darcy in a real Adam-and-Eve moment. What a wonderful scene--of course I've re-read it a couple of times. . . They both handle themselves in such a forthright fashion, no false modesty or coyness.

Nice to have it confirmed that Darcy is too decent and bright to hang naked pictures of Elizabeth about the house. That tattoo was a nice touch. It shows the artist had a great imagination but I think Darcy is finding that the real thing is even better.
Contented sigh.

WOWOHWOWOWOHWOW! What more can I say? Thanks for the chapter. Please post the next chapter soon! :)

Elizabeth and Darcy in a real Adam-and-Eve moment.

So beautifully put! But how scared I am they will be chased from paradise soon...

le sigh...so pleased that they are finally on good terms, on extremely delicious terms just a shame that they can't finish the job
But am sure Ellen, you will give us one or more in due time hehehe...look forward to the next update!

Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!

But why why why will they not have a lot of time at Pemberley?

It must be Lydia nad Wickham!!!!

Post soon please please please!

Oh my God, that was unexpeced!!!
Really, Ellen, I was thinking of a wet Lizzy observed by a hungry Darcy, maybe some mortifying situation when emerging from the water, but both of them, in the water, "stark naked", frantically kissing...
That was beyond my thoughts...but soooo happy with the outcome!

That was quite the take on the water scene at Pemberley! Just loved it.

I am so happy they both apologized and the departing words by Darcy, very swoon worthy.

Now new trouble begins *sigh*

Just terrific Ellen, can't wait for more.

Ellen!

An incredible chapter! I could not tear myself away from it.

Thank you for this evocative story.

Roselle

Wow- that chapter leaves me giddy with joy! I bet that water was cold-- but no doubt, Darcy could warm me up!

Well Darcy just had to have that last bit of confirmation on the additional birthmark.
So our little Lizzy isn't that modiste after all. I thought maybe him being there would be another reason that she would continue to be mad at him. I never dreamt they'd make out in the stream. wow!

Must we wait two weeks to see if anyone sneeks into anyones room any time soon.

I also can't help wondering if Caroline will show up with open invite he gave her through his Aunt Catherine?

Ellen you write beautifully and I can't wait for more

"...their time together at Pemberley...there would be little of it." No, no, no! I want them to have lots of time. Lydia is going to ruin it, isn't she? This chapter was so sensual & lovely. Of course, I want much more!

Well, that was interesting. Umm...you gals may have liked it, too.

Ellen, just remember the email I wrote to you. You'll understand in a couple of weeks.

YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooooh Ellen you have surely outdone yourself with this chapter! It has to be the hottest (or do I mean coldest hmm?) pond scene ever!! Loved it!!

But sounds like this idyllic existence isn't going to last long...

Ooooooooh! Hot chapter, that was!

Now, I agree with everybody else's wishes, but I have one of my own too. Call me insane, but I am looking forward to the moment when Caroline arrives. I love it so much when she makes a fool of herself over Darcy! And her ego is so inflated in this story, the scene will be memorable.

But of course, I have nothing against more Darcy and Elizabeth hot encounters (I may be insane, but I'm not foolish!)

YaHoo!! Love the sexual & sensual chemistry between them! Now I want to see orangecicle wilt in the Nevada sun!

those girls out west certainly know how to have some fun.

BTW, has Caroline seen those other sketches?

A great big THANK YOU to everyone who commented.

Alas, into every life a little rain must fall. Whether that downpour will take the form of Caroline or Lydia or Wickham, I ain't sayin'.

A wonderful chapter. So fantastic that I don't even mind sharing my name with the horse!!
A great variation on the Pemberley meeting; full of promise for the future.
Thanks
JulietR

Oh, JulietR! That was too funny!

Hi - am just checking to see if Chapter 18 had been posted yet. I hope Lizzy and Darcy are able to spend at least 1 night at Pemberley before she and Jane have to return home.

Cheers,
Julia B --> Anxiously looking forward to more of this wonderful story!

Any news on when Ellen will be next posting, Renee?

No, my dear, but knowing Ellen, it can't be long...

I suppose we just have to wait for the rain to falll next....can anybody gave us the weather forecast... ..I suppose only Ellen knows it

Thanks for keeping me on my toes, ladies! I'm deep into the next chapter but I'm afraid it's nowhere near ready yet. Apologies for keeping y'all waiting. I guess I spoiled you by posting almost weekly with my last one.

No worries dearie...I guess we all just have to revisit the previous chapters ..but that doesn't mean we wouldn't want you to post soonn ..(ohhhh...greeedy me.. )

Ima

My dear Ellen, I wish I was as deep in the next chapter together with you! But... I'll patiently await my turn.

Meanwhile, why not enjoy this beautiful song by Natasha Bedingfield?



Have to think of Ellen's Lizzy every time I hear this song.

AAahhhh - wonderful! Thank you! You do know how to tease...can't wait for more!

how wonderful is that song? :) ....I've never heard that song before but am glad that you posted it Renee.
