I'm blown away by your incredibly kind, intuitive, and well-thought-out comments and review! How can I thank you? I've been so embarrassingly weepy today that I may just dissolve into blubbering right now. Lord help me.
Anyhow, yes, definitely Alona's subconscious must have directed her toward Jensen to fulfill her desire for a child. Plus, he's Jensen, so who could resist him? And you were so right when you speculated that the reason she could not get pregnant was because her husband's little swimmers weren't doing their job. But as you know back then no one understood such things and blamed the woman for barrenness.
I'm so pleased that you liked Tristan's character so much! I must confess a fascination for his dark side - I am drawn to that in characters. I think that Jensen is so able to see the way Tristan has been damaged and he responds to it.
Thank you again for reading and reviewing - you're a writer's dream come true! :-)
