Right now her goal is to be successful. She will use whatever she has to achieve that goal. I do think she would stop short of actually hurting anyone though. She is ambitious but not cruel. <br /><br />As for Toad, you are right. Cooper will be very cautious with him although I don't think he is aware of the extent that he needs to watch him. Beth did the right thing by going after Coop. He needed her at that moment even if he wouldn't have told her that. It speaks volumes to how they are both committed to making their marriage work. She knew seeing a Julia lookalike could have sent him spiraling into emotions he buried a long time ago.<br /><br />Thanks so much for reading!thewyndhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09476656359810192923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192880522798293586.post-91576151602062123622010-04-06T04:01:36.076-07:002010-04-06T04:01:36.076-07:00As soon as Gemma said she was Julia's cousin a...As soon as Gemma said she was Julia's cousin all I thought was 'No way!'.

I love how Beth came on time too. Buuut both have old feelings stirring up again. Their relationship is hanging in water.

Her parting offer, come see me and chat about Julia, didn't have the affect she may have intended. <br /><br />Beth didn't know Jimmy - he's not that well known yet. And yes, she did come to Cooper at the end. She didn't stomp off in a huff about a spoiled evening. It wasn't nearly as important as coming to her husband's rescue. She's unpredictable, but this time she made the right choice.<br /><br />Thank you so much!S.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15236399168777815648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192880522798293586.post-61339286641083307772010-04-03T22:59:35.896-07:002010-04-03T22:59:35.896-07:00I love this development!

And she does not know that Rayne told Ryan the truth. It's an ugly place to be emotionally. <br /><br />Oh we are definitely enjoying mixing it up here! Jimmy (and we are just as besotted with him) will show up both here and in Passages. Charming troublemaker.<br /><br />Gemma will use what she's got to get what she wants.

Even though Beth made the choice to stay with Cooper, she's obviously still not over Ryan if she's not able to forgive Rayne (even though she's forgiven Ryan). The whole thing must have really messed with her head.<br /><br />I like how you both are intertwining "Passages" and this story together. I anticipate Jimmy gracing the pages of this story too. (That guy is just so charming. I'm loving him so far. I know I've already said that, but it bears repeating.) <br /><br />Gemma is something else. I'm not sure what to think of her yet. I'm guessing she's going to be a troublemaker, but I'll wait-and-see for now. Most likely, whatever happens with her is going to be a major test for Beth and Cooper's fragile relationship.AtomicSpaceKittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00248551506348556497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192880522798293586.post-36813566887263620402010-04-02T18:44:04.141-07:002010-04-02T18:44:04.141-07:00O my Gemma.

I wont believe anything coming from her mouth, not even a prayer say by her would seem real to me... she seems fake... she is like a sneaky snake trying to catch her prey...<br /><br />this chapter made me think of Agnes (was that her name? the crazy scientist/doctor from DD?)<br />They really never found her body, right? <br />She was completely mad, and there is nothing impossible for a mad scientist... they do from cloning to some kind of face surgery! <br /><br />Great update!!! <br /><br />ps.

A...Qui: It is good to see Cooper and Beth together. As for Gemma, I don't think she is actually playing with his mind. But she definitely has motives.<br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />Van: It is shocking to see a mirror image of your ex-wife. I don't think she is looking to get in the way of his marriage. As for Wyatt, he has come to terms with a lot of things regarding his mother although seeing the ghost of her so to speak will definitely bring it back for him just like it does for Cooper. And you will definitely see Cooper and Jimmy interact. Not sure how pretty that will be however.<br /><br />Thanks Van!<br /><br />Drew: Cooper does always get slammed just when things are going smoothly. Isn't life like that though? And you spider sense should be tingling! Rafe does have a point with regard to Beth and Rayne but sometimes you just can't forgive and forget no matter who it is.<br /><br />Thanks for reading Drew!<br /><br />Phoenix: Gemma is very driven. I doubt she is looking to stir things up with Cooper but she will use whatever she can to succeed. We'll see what if anything goes down with Wyatt. He may surprise you.<br /><br />Rayne and Beth may have a relationship that can never be mended. But Coop and Beth are solid and I think they will stay that way even if things keep getting thrown at them. <br /><br />Thank you so much!<br /><br />Pen: Gemma definitely knows how much she looks like Julia. I doubt she is primarily thinking about what sort of impact she could have on Cooper. For all Gemma knows he moved on long before Julia died so she doesn't think it's a big deal other than the fact that it might get a foot in the door. She may not necessarily be playing the lookalike card but I do think she would play the "family" card. She is ambitious and driven, definitely NOT Julia. And you will see Toad around. He and Coop will interact at some point. That is definitely going to happen much to Coop's chagrin which is probably why he looks so murderous!<br /><br />Thank you!<br /><br />Muzegoddess: Gemma has motives but you may be overestimating her perception of the impact she would have on Coop. She knows what she looks like. She also knows that Coop and Julia were divorced. She might simply be using her connection to promote her clients and why not? As for Beth, I think Ryan is always going to be lurking in the shadows of her mind and heart but she has firmly shut that door. Doesn't mean the memories don't come back once in awhile though. <br /><br />Thanks for reading!<br /><br />I do have a mosaic for Gemma that I will put up this weekend maybe as well as some kind of bio. We both thank you all for continuing to support our work!

Her motives are certainly not pure. She knew Cooper would freak out and rightfully so. But here again, he's leaving stuff out, not telling Beth something that important. I'm sure he feels like he's sparing her trouble but I think he might be buyinng trouble for himself.<br /><br />Beth might be tempting fate a bit as well, allowing herself to go to that place in her mind about Ryan, things he's said and done, and thinking about Rayne in that scenario. I get the anger and jealousy but Rayne is her child. At some point she's got to put that fact before anything else.<br /><br />A new can of worms is wide open and I can't wait to see what's next.<br /><br />Fabulous update.Muzegoddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12061922145498476714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192880522798293586.post-50346634744135184032010-04-01T15:55:22.720-07:002010-04-01T15:55:22.720-07:00LOL YES Pen!

She just stood there talking business and playing dumb as though it weren't the elephant in the room. Meanwhile, Cooper is looking positively murderous. There's no way she didn't know how creepy it was for her to bring up Wyatt at all, for any reason. I don't trust her. Cooper is right not to touch that with a ten foot pole.

Ok I ...Phoenix, you know you just gave me an idea. Ok I have to ignore that for now.<br /><br />Gemma wants to sell her clients. Whatever she's got she can use, maybe she'll use it. Cooper and Julia - he has a lot of powerful and mixed emotions. <br /><br />Rayne and Beth. Rayne used and hurt someone Beth loved. And, as far as Beth is concerned, did it for no reason other than flat out lust and stupid teenage rebellion. Jealousy is there, the dark shadow, but that's not the main problem. Will Beth continue to keep her distance from her daughter? Probably. Does Rayne feel like shit about it? Yes. Women judge each other according to a very strict standard of behavior. Evil bitch behavior, even in one's own child, might not be forgiven. <br /><br />My take on the whole deal. Can't believe I got this far into it. <br /><br />Hey, thank you!S.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15236399168777815648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192880522798293586.post-32998929934338218082010-04-01T14:58:15.181-07:002010-04-01T14:58:15.181-07:00Oh Lord!
