I loved this! Thank you so much for taking the time to create this this and write it. Everthorne is my OTP and it’s soooo hard to find well-written, interesting stories about them. I was starting to panic as a reached chapter 40, I thought that this would be an unfinished fic and I was *almost* OK with it because it was so entertaining and well written. Thank you so much for the note explaining the next book, I am going to find that immediately!

There are a few fanfiction groups on Facebook that you could maybe get the word out in, I know that may have already happened for you though because you posted this in 2014. One group I am in Is Stay Shippy & Read More Fan Fiction. They allow members to self promote their fics and they also ask members to post about what they are currently reading and loving to share it with the rest of the group. I am forever wishing more people would post about their fics and link to them. I would guess lots of group members feel the same way.

This is my favorite fan fic that I've read! ...and I've read quite a bit trying to find a storyline and ending that fits katniss and gale! I re-read the books recently, and was even more dissapointed with the ending than I was the first time. You have done a great job with all of the characters and creating a believable alternative story! I'm very excited see what you have in store for the next part of your story!

Beautiful nightmare. Great job, CG!

Hooray for Haymitch and Cinna! EVERTHORNE FOREVER!

Yes it's believable! Yes you handled it well! XOXO catniphawthorne

YEAH KATNISS! YOU GO GIRL! YOU TO THOSE MINES AND SHOW YOUR MAN SOME LOVING! XOXO catniphawthorne

Right now I wish Gale would come in and sock Peeta in the jaw or do some other bodily harm. GREAT JOB! XOXO catniphawthorne

Great job of making Peeta oblivious to what Katniss really wants, CG! Reminds me of my Peeta from my crossovers. XOXO catniphawthorne

so sad the part of the small bed, poor baby :(

This chapter made me SOOOO HAPPY!
Pathetic peeta sobbing in the ground LOL!

Just wanted to say this is an awesome story, few grammar mistakes here and there, but I love the different direction this story has taken opposed to all other hunger games fan fics, can't wait to read the next story!

You have got to update. This is one of my most read fanfics sonce I have read it numerous times now :p. Love the way you have shaped the whole story and the way you have described the characters. But please update soon.

Oh and I also forgot to say that I really liked the spin on Peeta! While I think his character in the book was a nice kind guy no one ever really saw him stalker like and being butt hurt that someone saved your life and wasn't immediately in love with you and being shocked it was a show to live? While I liked Peeta I really enjoyed this view of him! It seems a bit more realistic

Love this story as well! Although I hope Katniss and Gale finally get to kick some more capital ass! I am surprised that the capital keeps finding them. It makes me wonder if the DNA didn't work

Hi! I am a late comer in reading theses books and couldn't get enough. I started read two of you stories- this one and your latest story. I love them! Hope you keep updating this story!
