I stopped reading after the I cheat because my husband is in the military part. I have had to help too many of my soldiers through these situations to continue reading this.
What horrible selfish people! Was the reader supposed to enjoy their total disregard for the feelings of others?
And when it switched first-person narrators towards the end, for me it wandered too far. As a literary technique, I felt that it didn't work. Maybe the whole story told third-person would have been preferable?
Suddenly discovering the half-brother relationship was a co-incidence that might have been OK in something like a Gilbert & Sullivan operetta, but it grated in a story that was progressing through a serious examination of a married woman's need for adulterous relationships with young men. Then the convenience of the husband's adultery was a further co-incidence that stretched credibility.
Despite my misgivings regarding this story, I still think CateJ is one of the better writers on Literotica.

ps: Where is London relative to LA and other locations mentioned in the story?
What a love story. Ok, not your run of the mill love story. But I'm a sucker for a happy ending. Excellent writing.
