The End
It has taken me a long time to churn out this final chapter. I know some fans will beg for more episodes, but this will be the last.
The good news is that I will be revisiting Rachael in the Second Chance in the near future.

Rachel
I'm glad to hear you plan to revisit Rachael. Out of all of your characters, she and her story are my favorite. I truly like the stories of River and The House but Rachael is the one I remember clearest and am most likely to re-read.
Thank you for all of your awesome stories.
thankyou
again, thankyou for this beautiful story. I loved the fact that Sunflower got to be the mother she always wanted to be. so heart warming. so thoughtful. beautifully written. thankyou again.
I understand.
While reading I thought that the story seemed to be a tidying up type of story but it was good to
tie up the loose ends and a good place to finish.
Thanks for a really enjoyable tale.

good job
you do need an epilogue or short story where Grey and his parents get things settled. thanks for sharing this.
Sorry to see this story end,
Sorry to see this story end, but it was probably time. The prospect of hearing something more from Rachael (and possibly more of Times?) makes me still look forward to it.
Thank you
Thank you for sharing this great story with us. I have enjoyed all of it and look forward to your next story.
excellent story.
Thank you for yet another excellent story. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading it and have only one disappointment. That is I hoped,( right from episode 1), that Grey would, at some point, have contact with his original family. However, a very readable tale. Thank you.

Thank you Dawn,
More would be nice, of course, but this has been great.

Endings
It is always a sad occasion when a grand story comes to an end.
I always look forward to another chapter in any of your stories, Dawn.
There are stories where all the action seems to be so exciting and all happening in a hurry. Then there are others where time is not in a hurry and character development can mature, relationships build and a grand story grows.
Stories are like food for the mind. Some food is prepared quickly and eaten promptly. Some food takes purposeful preparation and time to develop the flavours fully before eating. Both foods are necessary in our diet.
Both short and intense stories, and the longer developing maturity of the sagas are needed within the pantheon of the readership. While I like intense, action packed stories such as those written by Matthew Reilly, I prefer it when the writer's skill takes time to develop a character, a storyline and events. Clive Cussler, Tom Clancy, Tess Gerritson, Stephen Coonts, Dan Brown, Dale Brown, Jean Auel, Patricia Cornwall, Frank Herbert, Brandt Legg, Stephen Arsenault (among many) are writers who have developed great characters that have you coming back for more with baited breath.
Keep up the good work, Dawn. We are waiting...

Dawn, thank you
The House has ended, like all good things, they say. Not gone though, and the inhabitants go on with their lives in our heads.

Great book
I loved it and will definitely look out for more of your work
What Everyone Else Said
A lovely end to a gentle story.
A very sweet story
This story is another one which should be placed on a person's reading list, it is nicely written and well told.
It's another story that pulls the reader along with each chapter because there's an interest in knowing more about the characters in each, and proceeding, chapters.
Success of the house was achieved because those who came to the house were treated with respect and shown a love they'd not had before. And because that which was right held sway over all things.
The House could be the model that shows how all should live, accepting others as they are and loving them just the same. Those who came to the house were given a purpose they'd never had, or were shown that that they were important and not someone who was just another drag on society.
While earning money to maintain the house and care for all who lived there was necessary, it wasn't the driving force behind the house, as Dawn and Sandra came to understand.
At some point even fine stories must find an ending, a way of bringing to a close a well told story that seems to chronical actual living people.
Others have feelings too.
