This sequel had it all...drama, romance, tragedy. I especially liked the scenes where Jimmy found out he and Jack had lost a son, and the one at their wedding where he toasted Noah and Ike. Pure perfection!

Nesciri

Dark Intruder

sequel to the story Whispers in the Dark

at Ponnyexpressen

Kim Roberts
I have looked forward to Nesciri's sequel to "Whispers in the Dark" from the first moment she mentioned writing one! Her original story of an ancient, demonic force haunting the riders continues in dramatic and imaginative fashion in this intriguing sequel.

Miss Raye

A new Man in Town II

sequel to the story A new Man in Town

on The FanFicList

Charla
The character development in this sequel was just awesome! After reading the first one, the second was a must read, but the sequel soon became the real "meat" of the fanfic. Jordan's character was really on a prologue in "New Man in Town." "New Man in Town II" was compelling, gripping and an emotional roller coaster. I actually was torn between the sequel category and the suspense category. This is what a sequel should be! Great fanfic!

Secrets of the Night sequel to the story Comes The Dawn

On the FanFicList and Kidnation

It was such a fitting sequel to "Comes the Dawn". It could have really worked on the TV series. It was so wonderful when Lou finally did the "right" thing. You can't read it just once!

 

Sid

This was such a great way to end the Jimmy and Jill trilogy. It was short, but very bittersweet and touching.

It is well writen and put me on edge thinking of what was going to happen next.

Lisa R

Secrets of the night
sequel to the story
Comes the Dawn
at The Kidnation and The FanFicList

Aimee
There is sooooooooo much in this story that makes it the perfect sequel to Comes the Dawn. Since Comes the Dawn was about a secret from Lou's past, it was fitting that Secrets of the Night was about a secret from Kid's past. And Lisa had the perfect explanation for why Doritha had come to Rock Creek, looking for Kid, in Just Like Old Times. Doritha is a character that I feel like I'm supposed to hate, but I really don't, and Lisa made me feel better about liking her in this story.
Another thing that makes this sequel so great is that it could stand on it's own. If you don't read Comes the Dawn (which you definitely should read!) you would not be lost reading Secrets of the Night.

Melissa and Lisa

Loved this story - I was so jazzed that the Devon character was back. I didn't want her with Buck, but I really liked her and Jimmy together. I won't give away the ending, but oh...it just brought tears to my eyes! Very well written...
Melissa and Lisa are such great writers! They keep you wanting to read more about the characters they have created and their story ideas are so creative
