I haven't read many of the other chapters in this interesting story but I believe the agent is jealous of the girl Leya. Keep up the great work.

Merry Christmas to you too. "Chapter 6; part 3" is a well written chapter. I didn't catch any spaggies in there. There is a lot of movement between/action the dialogue which keeps things in motion and moving. Well done.

Another chapter of this cleverly written story read and enjoyed. The plot promises so much and so far has delivered in spades. You are a talented writer who uses dialogue particularly well. I look forward to reading more. Happy Christmas David.

Another marvelous chapter. I like the banter between Steven and Peggy. I assume this will go on for a while. Who is right, Peggy or Steven? Will Peggy's attitude get her into deeper water? Now there's a side story going on. Nice job.

Hello my favourite American!

Well, this is developing, isn't it!

I looked for spags and found none.

I looked for overuse of singular writing styles and found none...apart from one picky little matter that eventually began to irritate me a little, and that is, your use of italics to highlight POV thoughts.
I can't get my head around why I don't like that tool and any alternative I suggest may not be adequate, but to me it made your writing begin to feel a little, forced...
One POV italic thought concerns the carot of the diamond, and is in active voice...Hmmm, can't quite put my finger on why I don't like that, perhaps someone more learned has spotted it too? I could think on it some more, but I think my concern hides in this point somewheres..you are trying to convey what the ring looks like, in a thought process...

Its probably more to the point that I havnt really got a clue what I'm talking about... :)

I hope this helps

Tony

    Thought is supposed to me in italics. I started using more of it because I was getting gigged for not showing my characters feelings. I used it for the ring because I wanted to get the description in because of a later family issue. I will recheck it and see if I can get the description in some other way. I am so happy to hear from you. I was missing you big time.

    You are almost certainly absolutely right, and perhaps my subsequent critique, ch2, highlights my concerns more...My remarks are at best nothing more than food for thought and I would urge you not to change anything on the strength of this one critique, but perhaps if others highlight something similar in a more erudite style, then you might look at it...

    Yep, I'm back...lol, missed you too.

I am new to this site and missed your earlier chapters. Now that I'm hooked, I'm going to read all of them in double quick time.
I find your dialogues are almost like a filmy script. I am sure that you can make a career of a script or dialogue writer.
U write VERY WELL without any sfags.
There is hardly any scope for comment except to say EXCELLENT.
Wishing u good luck.

Peggy glared at Steven's wedding band. "Why are you still wearing that?"

Peggy is a nuisance! Steven has been really patient with her. Other man would have slapped her I think. Good thing he warned her though.

"I don't have time for these petty games.["]

Some drama here.
