Keep up the excellent work hon,
Donna
You are the mistress of story telling .Your mastery of the art is unsurpassed . Most enjoyable start to the story can not wait for the next chapter.
a werewolf,werecat and a vampire, now this is getting interesting, and as i always request, please do something with emily, she has figuired in so well twice in the story line, and she should be rewarded
Oh I am so excited that I get to read one of your stories from the begining! You have pulled me in with the characters and I can not wait to read the next chapter to see what happens between them all!
o the anguish D is going through and then F comes along and messes with his head the F style.
it's been a while but "oops you did it again"!!
keep us wow-ing with more that sprouts from those magically gifted fingers !
Jumped online and there you were, with a new story for me to obsess over. Yay! Yay! Yay!
Interesting first chapter. There is a lot of darkness in this one and a lot of emotional baggage. And your two love interests - Freya & Dayton - that is one violatile mix, I must say. I love it, it will definitely have me guessing and scheming over the next little while till you bless us again.
Loved the back story. Once again, I'm intrigued and eager to experience the journey...
It's Spoolee. Sorry I haven't been around...computer troubles and what not. But I'm back and I happened to notice that you are too :) Love the first chapter. I have a feeling that this one is going to be very interesting. :)
How do I sign up!!!! To become!!! one of your ALTS!!!!!
Oh you are good! I don't know how you do it but it's amazing. Good thing I have some time off or I'd be late for class. :p Just like all the rest, when I think I've got it figured out you totally change directions.
What a fantastic start to the new series of our favourite world! Thankyou so much for posting! JAZ YOU ROCK!!!!!
Willie...JG always!
I think we were getting Jaz withdrawl symptoms..lol.
As I have said time and time again I dont know how you do it , I am just SOOOOOOO glad you do.
This start is a lot darker than the others but I suspect it may get darker before the light kicks in, Nice to see Fraya being 'interested' in a werewolf, cos we know the fun they can have hehe.
Rayne is someone I cant wait to get to know and see where she fits in your world too.
Welcome back to the submission button Jaz, we missed you!
Jxx
Thank you so much, your stories brighten my day when everything else isnt worthwhile..... you alow me to escape. Your writing is brilliant. Thank you
Jaz you are a magical magical creature! One chapter and i am already hooked, i will now, no doubt be looking for updates everyday! But wow, so far so great!
Hip hip hip Hurray
Hip hip hip Hurray
The real Jazz Cullen is back!
No more that romance crap!
Can you see what you did Oh Cullen
Making me feel oh so sullen
going into other genres
That was just so.............(something that rhymes with ..enres!)
The vamps and weres are here to stay
You better never ever stray etc etc
You see how happy I am that you are back you got me writing extremely bad poetry.If you dont want more of these kinds of crappy poems spammed into every aspect of your life, you better confine yourself to vamps and weres.You actually made my day cos my boss just royally pissed me off and i reall really need Freya to be real so I can send her to my boss!!LOL!
Outstanding work!!!!Easily the best author on this site!!!
Keep up the good work and remember what you have to do to prevent the infestation of bad poetry in your life!!! Hehehehe
but I will wait patiently :) Very exciting beginning and I can't wait to read more!
You've no idea how long i've waited to read your work again, and your characters are always so real, with your your it's more than just a story, it's realizing that at some point and on some level we can all relate to their pain and sorrow, their happiness. I've told u before, if you haven't had offers to become published, then you should actively pursue it. As long as you keep writing, we'll all keep reading
:)
So excited after reading this chapter that I think I will wake my hubby up just to express my joy in a very special way. I thank you and i am sure that my hubby will be very happy to here that you have more for me to read!
I can't do the poem thing but really this is soooooooo very good. I'm just a little bit in love with these characters ... oh who am I kidding I'm thoroughly utterly devoted to them!!! Well done !!!!
As usual you have me hoked into this story and got me wondering whether Freya would finally find a little happiness in her life.
Please post another chapter soon.
jazz
Thanks & congrats. After a short break you hav returned and begun wid a soul touching plot. Completely fabulous. Keep it rolling.

Saw the post about the bad poetry and had to laugh.Excellent story am already wetting my pants to see what more you have in store!!!
A great start to a story about 2 great characters, looking forward to the journey.
as of 9:20 in the morning, eastern time in america, already 24 comments, jaz, that shows that people love your work and characters, keep it up
Already a excellent story. Please keep up the good work and thanks for filling in the blanks with Mr. Alexander and Freya.
It's a wonderful introduction chapter. Certainly has me intrigued, and waiting for the next chapter.
Well hello there Ms. Jazzy. I see you've taken some time off from being Phoenixbreez's muse... don't think I haven't noticed the game you two are playing at... with you on a writing holiday and she taking her fans through the misery of waiting a week + for her next installments...the both of you cut from the same, if not very similar, cloths I say... but it's all in good fun... I know good writing takes time, but really must you both leave me in suspense? Anywho back to this newest story... this Dayton fellow is uuber depressed I see and who do you decide to hook him up with... Freya? Really Jaz? I mean I get all we see is the mean, hardcore rip-the-throats-out-of-you-and-your-whole-family Freya so we don't really know if she's the type to secretly yearn for a dominant, yet lovingly devoted man in her life but I can already see this is not going to be an easy pairing as Andrei, Alexei's and Nor's were. And this Rayne chick... I do believe that this is the first non-wolf were you're created in all your stories... nice touch though... now who we gonna hook her up with in the coming stories?
Oh and before I forget, so loving that Ash and Freya have a good relationship and loving even more that Ash has had a little one.
As always, no matter what you decide to dabble in, awaiting your next installment.
-392OhMyGoodness
Ok so I'm alittle excited that Ash and Nors have had there first son and Cedar and Alexi now have 2 girls. What a great way to reference back to our favorite characters.
I like this Dayton, and feel a connection to him and his pain. We all have suffered pain through out our lives and like Dayton, most of us have wanted to run away and try our best to ignore it. Having someone like Ash, with all her love and true understanding coming into Dayton's life is going to be hard. Ash has the ability to turn the axis of Dayton's world upside down.
Freya is going to mess with Dayton by pushing his buttons. Which may be just what the "DOG" needs. Him having no fear of death is also going to challenge Freya to come up with new ways to "hound" him.
A panther Werecat. You always have to throw something unexpected into the mix so why not a panther. I guess Panthers and Wolves don't have the same hate that cats and dogs have for one another. I'm looking forward to hearing her story of loss and how that helps her relate to Dayton.
Well Jaz, you have done it again. How you are able to continue this story amazes me. You are truly a talented author. One in which no matter what genre you choose to write, you will be successful.
So happy you succumbed to the irresistible siren call of the Submit button, Jaz. ;-P
Also love the title of this new story because it's bittersweet and yet hopeful at the same time.
I started reading the chapter thinking -- great, we're finally going to see how life has changed for Annie and Caleb after that cliffhanger ending in TC with Gard showing up.
By the end of the chapter, though, I had so many new questions about Rayne, Dalton, and Freya that it was a couple of hours later before I even remembered there wasn't much about Annie and Caleb here!
See? That's how good you are at drawing people in and getting them to focus on the things that you want their attention on. #SoEvil
I guess this means that the weekly torture of waiting for the next installment begins again! I won't complain too loudly, though, because I'm sooo happy that this 'long walk home' has begun at last.
Love your stories so glad your back. This story already is captivating. Cant wait for more.
Thank you for writing. I love all your stories and can't wait to see how this one turns out. You are a great writer and keep me very entertained. Keep up the good work and thank you again for writing and sharing your stories with us.
i am so intrigued about this new chapter!! please keep going! quickly this time!! LOL!! I absolutely love your work!!
Thanks for the compliment, if I was anywhere near as good as Jaz at this writing lark I would be one happy bunny, but also sad to disapoint I have not submitted due to family issues detailed on my profile..I have no claim on Jaz's muse...damn!
Lov ya Jazzzzzyyyy mwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I am so glad that you have returned to writing in this world. These new additions are sure to become fast favotites. Rayne's mysterious abilities are very intriguing and I can't wait to see what you have in store for us. I could feel the emotional pull of the inner turmoil in Dayton. Your ability to let us identify with your characters is truly an impressive gift. I am glad it is going to be a long walk home instead of a short one, because I don't think I can get enough! LOL!
now i can read again..... it is hard to wait if my fave author will write. i am glad you are back!!! :)
i will read any type of story you write.. u got me hooked already. :)
Once again, I am instantly ADDICTED!!!! So glad that you are back in this world, I loved your romance stories too though I am slightly more attached to the characters in this world. I am so loving this one already. I have one question though, it seems that I recognize the name Rayne, but can't place where in the story I had heard her name before. Was she mentioned in this world before maybe? Keep going please and I did not see anything that needed editing, just keep posting, even without an editor, it's fantastic!!!
What an overture! You do know how to set the stage, dear Jazz. My mouth is salivating just at the thought of the juicy story you're throwing us this time. Damn I want to know what's up with Rayne. I mean scent-masking and and hiding in shadows isn't anything your typical weres can do. Admittedly all of the ones we saw so far were wolves, but I would hate for them to loose out on extras, just cause they are wolves. Make it good, will ya?
And I would so love to see your attempts at fantasy. You got the twisted imagination necessary to build truly captivating worlds, as you have already proven. Keep it up. We really love your works.
(Sorry, couldn't help myself! I loved her poem so much that I felt I should be a copycat and express my thanks in a similar fashion)
Poetry I cannot do
Although my admiration has grown for you
Week in, week out
I sit
Praying for another hit
Looking out for a little yellow sign
Something, anything to comfort my mind
But alas, I had given up all hope
And unstable, in my abilities to cope
Till a tweet in my ear
and a slap on my rear
Pointed me in your direction
Saying
'She has posted another, with vampire selections'
So I quickly ran to the library to open my browser
Swearing at the world for blowing my house off
Cringing at the noisy clerk
and the overconfident flirting jerk
I bury myself deeper in the corner
Praying the page will hurry in its freakin' load up
Reading line after line
Praying no one will question my crying
I sat back as if I had partaken a feast
Finding myself at peace
Comforted once more
till I realise
7 days till I get an encore!
OK!!!! So you at it again!!!!! Ok! Im stretching out my back, cracking my knuckles and bracing for the impact of your words!!! I've got my kleenex and I'm ready when you are!!!!! Oh! Your romances were truly Bad Ass!!!! Snaps and Kudos on them! Now hurry with the next chapter to this new saga!!!!! Your fantabulous HHIC!!!!
Ok from Freya's reaction to Dayton we know he will be her mate at some point down the line, although it may be kicking and screaming. LOL I was thinking Rayne would make a great mate for Gard I think they both have the same need to end their solitude and it would make her part of Annie's little family and part of Rafe's pack by default.Which reminds me how did Dayton become one of Rafe's pack did Jared just pass him over to Rafe because he already had Aaron and Cedar and couldn't Rafe communicate with him through the Alpha link? So many questions can't wait for the answers.
BTW I am thrilled that Ash and Nors have a son, can just see the ancient going all soppy over his boy! These hybred kids are going to be the most well trained loved,strong warriors when they grow up!
You nail it again, got me hook from the get go. looking forward to the developing of this exiting story.
It's fantastic beginning Jaz. And as always leaves us hungering for more.
welcome back; hope you are rested after your (short) hiatus. missed you.
dayton alexander at last! (squeal) and every bit gorgeous as expected.
watch out freya or should it be watch out dayton? (hehehe)
have to agree with willieone with who i’d like to see paired, but it’s all up to you in the end, gal.
fantasy, ahh. still a category where vampires and weres appear!!
2.30am in uk, once a jazcullen chapter is seen, it must be devoured.
you’ve got us hooked, just reel us in, again! ;0)
Dayton sounds like a dream - I waiting with baited breath
What an exciting and fresh perspective on some of our favorite characters! I can't wait to see the story develop. It makes any day better to see your name appear beneath a new title. :)
Boy am I glad I logged on tonight, Jaz. Von
Cedar has 2 girls??? Poor Alexei, I almost feel sorry for him . . .NOT! LOL!
Dayton's sounds yummy and Freya? Well she's being Freya as usual.
Can't wait to see what happens. More please.
Oh, and welcome back MEJ
I just found this new update! I can't express in words how excited and happy I feel knowing that I'll have something fantastic, imaginative, compelling and yes BRILLIANT to read every week or so.
To tell you that the last few weeks without your words have been punishing is a major understatement. It seems that after reading all your stories for quite possibly the 10th time I moved onto your favourites, and then their favourites and then their favourites and...well you can see where I'm going with this. It also became apparent that excluding yourself, the guild and a few others there is a sorry lack of soul-grabbing stories on this site, stories that just make you want to sigh.
So I thank you, with all my heart and soul for continuing to no only make me sigh but cry, laugh, yell, throw things, shout for joy and scream 'BRILLIANT' to the heavens. I can't wait for the next chapter as this series promises to add to your ever going fan base and exceed all my expectations regarding your BRILLIANT (yes I got it in again) writtings.
Keep up the great work your groupie - Zooey
Hook, line, and sinker, as usual...lol. I can see fireworks in the future. Freya and Dayton and Rayne and Gard...lol..DAAAAMMNN!!! Uhh...did I say fireworks? That may be a mild understatement...hehehehehe. All I can say is that you and whitesabretooth are my absolute favorite authors...bar none. I know you said you wanted to branch out to other things, but perhaps you could come back to these wonderful people to tell us about the kids.....we can't forget about the kids and where and who THEY find love and mates with.....please say we can't...lol Terri
So glad to be able to have something worthwhile to read and look forward to. THANK YOU.
As always, U Rock!! Keep up the wonderful writing!
you are back! can't wait for the next chapter.........you are the best!!
You are back, you are back - whoooooppeeeee and woooohooooo. And what a great way to start. great story already. You have beenso missed my dear friend. I am so happy to see you posting stories again Thank you, thank you, thank you. hugs, Kate
I re-read all of your previous stories at the conclusion of 'The Council' to simply fill the void until you submitted something new. As I have always said, I am eagerly awaiting your next installment.
YAY a new story :) I adore your were series and this one has already sucked me in. I'm looking forward to the next chapter !!! LOVE YOUR WORK :) Keep on writing, were, fantasy, or whatever else!!!! :)
I am so happy you have picked up with fiona and dreaydons story :)
Quick intro of a couple of intriguing characters suggests this will be up to the standard of your other stories.

This story has been on for less than a week and you already have 61 comments.This means that you have so much more to give and your readers have so much more to take!!!!!
Now stop all this..."I am not going to continue and I want to branch out"stuff and please continue!!!!
From this chapter I know I am in for the ride of my life and if you run out of ideas consult me( for a fee of course!!!!!!LOL)
Good going!!!!!!
well i for one will read anything you share with us... Tho i am glad u decided to stick with the hanlon world for a little longer. Thanks for sharing. Im off to check out chapter 2!
JC...I've been a fan for such a long time...all the stories, the characters are so real that I think there are weres somewhere on the planet (just kidding...lol)! Do you know how often I've checked to see if a new story was up....which is why this is happy new year to me. Thank you...keep up the good work, keep the stories coming, be it romance, were/vamp, fantasy, tho I'd prefer were/vamp, but hey beggars aren't choosers and am certainly begging!
Since I already commented, and can't comment again:
Is Rayne going to be a were-vamp hybrid? And I'm assuming that person who found her when tracked was Gard? Can't wait for chap. 3 :P
Hey Jaz! I love the "charisma" dripping off of Dayton~ lol Thanx for the share, dear.
Zee~
Heeeere kitty kitty kitty kitty, nice pussy!
I'm intrigued. Must. Keep. Reading....
Well that is easy, this is an absolutely amazing author who can hooking you to her stories. You will be dying for an injection of her steamy books and plot twists!
you really really shouldnt back post comments! or at least give warning about it.
i can see a future of long nights ahead reading this story......and i can't wait! As ususal you've got me hooked from the first chapter.
Until i clicked on this story......shit i cant believe i lied to myself btw ur story seriously captured my interest...
xoxo
Aria
your infatuation with long hair on man is just so ridiculous :D
I always have to fast skip over the passages when you describe your male characters in detail before I fall from my chair laughing, hurting myself in the process.
Werecats -- rarely written about, as far as I can tell. This should be interesting.
you sure sucked me into another story!! You always do that lol can't wait to see how the story unfolds
This might come across wrong but Yay!!! A character or two who are damaged goods. It is nice to see a story where the main character isn't all perfect.
O boy this is going to be good. I'm giggling like a school girl. love it when characters feel like there getting dragged in front of firing squad to find love and happiness.
I realised this was another of the series half way through Hearts of Warriors.
I wish there was a way to label them so we could tell easily that they were all in the same series and had to be read in an order.
The sexy Dayton Alexander!!! My favorite were (J Hanlon is a close second)! Love this story! Considering this is the 20th plus time I've read it. :)
The minute Dayton was mentioned I knew he would be Freya's mate. That's great, I can't wait to see how this "courtship" fares AND who will be the Werecat, Rayne's mate!
I’m late to the show, but is it too late to become a groupie?!?! This story speaks to my soul. I have dreams of all these stories becoming books and I can tell people how I read them online before being published. 😊😊😊
Awesome start to my binge reading. Found you through your cameo in boneams work. Thanks for your sharing.
A Long Walk Home is so enchanting and captivating....Even shared it with my teenage daughter a few years back...hehe...Keep up the fantastic work....please be well. Know we love your writing...take care "-))
