So this book is a massive project. I knew this from day one that there would be more than a hundred chapters. As you saw towards the end, the word count decreased keeping the story moving towards a fast climax and ending for part 1. Each part centre's around two events. Part 1 was centered around River's reputation and mistrust that lingers around him. As well as Adeline opening up to him.

Part 2 will pick up right where it left off, sort of like a second book if you would and it too will be centered around two major events in River's story.

😉
I'll be back.
