    Thanks so much for your input girls - this really is helping!! I am making some changes to characters names now - I think establishing names first in the story helps to define the characters themselves. Will let you know what I have decided on when I have written a synopsis for each character.

    LisaL - not sure when it will be finished (it is barely started!) but I'm sure I will be back in here asking for advice on bits and pieces!!

    I'll be watching, and keen on writing my own book at some stage, you've inspired me to think about doing it sooner! BOL!!

    I've always wanted to write one great story - but I just never got around to it!

    I saw a picture in a magazine of this grand Europen style house that backed onto a beach (I think it was in The Hampton's in the US) and the story just grew from there! I can't wait for this weekend when I can really throw myself into it.

    I have written character descriptions and purposes already and now I just have to tie it all in and create a plot. Most importantly I need to figure out the ending - that is always the hardest part!

    Oh and by the way - Here are the names I have chosen:

    Main Character: Eva Hamilton-Tate
    Ex Husband: William Tate
    Ex Husbands new love: Lydia Wright
    Parents: George and Elizabeth (Beth) Hamilton
    Older Brother: Nicholas "Nick" Hamilton
    Younger Brother: Benjamin "Ben" Hamilton
    Older Brother?s Wife: Francesca Hamilton
    Nephew: Oscar Hamilton
    Best Friend City: Colette McCarthy
    Best Friend Home: Sarah Fenwick
    Ex Lover/Rekindled Romance: Still Undecided **HELP**

    For the rekindled lover, how about Julian? Adrian? James?
    Not sure about surnames... Smythe?

    I love the names you have chosen, especially the main character and her brothers - they really do sound like names that would go together in a family.

    Thanks girls!!

    I like the suggestions of Blake and James for the rekindled romance name... AHHH it's so hard - and especially because the first few chapters involve him so I'm finding it hard to get a start on things! He's not from the same background as our heroine - he's more laid back and not in that "upper class" circuit...
