This is really really great. The dialogue between Will and Georgy is brilliant and the detail (whether from own experience or researched) is superb. I could stand to read much more of this! :)
I did almost check out at how bleak the first couple of pages were. Good lord!
to the point it seemed a love-affair with his parents, the houses and of course, Georgy.
Loved the banter between Georgy and Will, as well as the flashbacks to how she reacted when he left for the Queen's service. Gripping details about her anxiety and the home invasion from Max's buddies--and you did a fine job making them seem very smarmy.
Although I rated it a 5, I do feel like some of the refinishing the 2nd house was excessive, at least with all the specialists that had to be called to redo certain things; I also feel like the backstory on Will's step-dad (he considered him his dad) should have been economized and even placed slightly differently in the beginning to improve the reading flow. Certainly the parts that should not have been trifled with weren't, like Georgy's anxiety with thunder, punishing Max, nor the attack, nor the details on what Will never paid attention to, in terms of signals Georgy sent him that he missed all those years.
Enjoyed it, regardless.
This is by far the best story I have read here over the years. I was do disappointed when I realized I was going to the last page. Your writing style is excellent and character development was delightful. It held my attention from beginning to end. Great job!
Excellent work of literary art BB. You constantly amaze me with your talent for creating an erotic yet very enjoyable tale of sibling love and romance with a little life threatening drama thrown in. Thank you sir once again for entertaining me.
My only complaint is that it ended, all that character development and then is stopped, I do hope that you will be writing another chapter to this.
Other than that, a great story
So much to say and all good. I have heard the inheritance laws in Great Briton described as draconian, seems a good description. The love between Georgy and Will is beautiful.
Beautiful romance with both Georgey Girl and the old house. I enjoyed both and I loved the action scenes. All the little details just made the story seem so authentic and real. Lovely. Well done.
It will be in part back-story told from Georgy's perspective, and their life and family going forward with both Will and Georgy telling their side of things. Work commitments mean it's a work in progress rather than a priority right now, but it should show up hopefully before the end of November.

Bravo good sir. I like to see submission like this. I especially enjoyed the fact that the sex scenes felt natural to the storyline rather then being smut breaks.
Lovely story as always, i'm a big fan of your work, thank you for sharing it with us.
Yes I agree with the comment of other reader who found it wordy and was not a remodeller. I am, love historical houses, have re modelled/ rebuilt two, made alterations to others and built my own house from bare land after clearing the scrub.
So yes, this one right up my street.
Good romance and sex. Far fetched on the one man ary side, but enjoyed it very much
Thank you3TthRM
Its said a good writer is one that draws you in, using words to "paint" a picture and evoke emotions. I laughed, raged, cried, through out this story.
Thank you for sharing with us.
As usual from a writer of your calibre a fine rollicking fun story.
I love your work! You were the first author I read when I first found this page and you are in my favourites.
Scores 5/5
Don't know how I missed this series, but glad your recent post brought me to it. Some of the detailed restoration narrative could have been shortened, but it did help draw us into the characters and their relationship. Great Part 1, can't wait to see their next steps..5*
Fantastic. As an Ex-HM Forces guy, I can appreciate the risks & rewards or combat, be it abroad or at home, plus the erotic brother / sister relationship makes it far above the normal "erotica" story..... Congratulations

Truly a heart breaker - A beautiful writing style. The British vernacular just proves the old adage "2 peoples separated by a common language" - Your attention to situational descriptive detail was superlative and simply made the story - Kudos far beyond my feeble ability to describe here . . . . 10/5
