Bless her - she read it all a second time, ignored the typos and made some very useful comments and suggestions (like "start again" and "change the ending" - no, I joke ...)
More, she highlighted the areas I was also having doubts about - Sean too insubstantial, too hasty an ending, which was deliberately happy but with room to change ...I've been caught out before by thinking I've got one couple living happily ever after only to find that something else happens and I'm wrong.
So. I think I shall aim to emphasise and increase references to the loving interaction between Bridie and Sean and reconsider how I play out the ending, hopefully before I send it elsewhere ...
