Reactions and Reviews

1999

The title is very expressive and could be used to describe all this fine author’s works.

The time frame is post-Miramanee. Kirk is riddled with guilt. He is devastated that while living that tribal life he had only fleeting recollections of Spock and none whatsoever of their bond or his commitment. It doesn’t help that Spock just keeps reassuring Jim that he understands, finally explaining that he also loved Miramanee. Kirk explodes at this revelation, unable to accept it. Spock calmly inquires why he would not love Kirk’s wife when she was gentle and caring and loved Kirk in his absence.

It is also made clear to us that McCoy is totally unaware of Spock’s and Kirk’s feelings for each other; thus accusing Spock of not caring at all for Kirk.

The ending is what one would expect from the title: blissful. [1]

4/5: Character Study and erotica is an interesting combination. I'm personally not that into it. This was still well written and definitely not bad, just not really for me. [2]
