In reply to: Marilyn 's message, "Really? I think they have an exceptional marriage and a rare relationship with each other. I feel like at this point in time, Pamela�s guilt and her fear for Casey are what�s at the heart of their problems, maybe I�m na�ve and not digging deep enough..but I just don�t see any deeper problems. They are very in tune with each other, if they weren�t, I don�t think Pamela�s guilt would be such a burden and Casey would not feel anything different. As for Belinda, Jamie & Pamela....I've rambled so I have to go inside >>>>" on 09:13:20 10/22/07 Mon

I think they have an exceptional physical attraction and yes love, but it doesn't seem to me they are ever completely honest with each other. And Pamela continues to resent Casey's involvement with the IRA when she knew what he was before she asked him to marry her yet I don't rememer her informing Casey about her role as a spy on Jamie and then she risked her life and Casey's baby getting that info without even discussing it with him. I wouldn't want my husband to do those things. Yes, it makes for a good story because a perfect marriage would be a pretty boring read, but it is true, I liked Pamela in EU, but wasn't too happy with her overall in Mermaids. I mean it seems a double standard, she can be jealous over Jamie, and how's Casey suppose to feel about that? (NT) --

I do understand what you're saying susie..truly, I still don't see anything deeper going on between them though. Do you think Pamela really resents Casey's IRA involvment or is it more fear and hoping things could be different? Haha Casey is jealous over Jamie too - he must be one hell of man himself *g* (NT) --

Marilyn (), 12:52:54 10/22/07 Mon

That's a good point about the involvement; I didn't mean to imply that she doesn't have reason to be worried and I think she truly cares what happens to the Irish people, but asking Casey to stay out of it-well, I just can't see him doing that. Ironically while I liked Pamela less in this book, I liked Casey more- hey, maybe I'm just jealous? *g* (NT) -- susiej, 14:42:34 10/22/07 Mon
