I actually started reading this a while ago, but had to put it on hold. Happily, I finally finished reading it today. :-) This fic is a wonderful combination of adventure and romance, with a lot of hotness and humour rolled in. I like your take on Lester's kids, especially Charli, who obviously didn't have any problems with her dad's hunky boyfriend, despite Lester's concerns. *g* I love that conversation between Lester and Charli in the second last scene, not to mention the wobbling lips of the twins in the scene before that when they had to say goodbye to the creatures. Too sweet and adorable.
