Author's Notes

A few of you may be familiar with my name, since I've been writing Voyager fanfic for about a year now. For those of you who don't know me, my name isn't really Emma Woodhouse - I borrowed the name from a Jane Austen character. (Hey, she was a matchmaker, so it seemed appropriate.) This is my first piece of Sentinel fanfic, and I only started watching in the middle of second season, so I may, in my ignorance, be making some canonical errors. Of course, I'm also having Our Boys falling into one another's arms, a definite transgression against canon, so what can I say?

Many thanks to dear Taffy, who posts my stories and forwards my feedback - what would I do without her?[1]

Reactions and Reviews

I like the idea of Sentinels as a throwback to a more primitive breed of man. I like a primal Jim Ellison. I especially like a primal and lusty Jim Ellison, putting the moves on his Guide. In this story, something comes over Jim at a crime scene, and he finds himself reliving the experience of another Sentinel who died a long time ago. In the process, he discovers something very interesting about the relationship between Sentinel and Guide. Steamy![2]
