What a great piece of writing. You had me rolling in the emotions of the two lovers. I fell hard right along with you. Great, great job.

Comment from writer_13
What a great story. You created something really interesting using the two sentences you were required to use. It held my interest and nice surprise ending. I enjoyed it very much.

Comment from anabellapongasi
oh I just love it. (I'm a hopeless romantic!) Very enjoyable to read, so full of passion. Very imaginative. And I love the surprise ending. You're really brilliant Carol. I'm so impressed with your writing. ( by the way I can't find chapter 9 of Ice Princess)

Wow...you sure know how to make a person feel good. I am so glad that you enjoyed the story and I'm blown away by the stars.
I haven't posted Chap 9 because I realized I need to make an adjust in the story to show how Shaker and Sherry were connected. Thought I better figure that out before I posted again. Thanks for the interest though. You are great!
Smiles to you, Carol

Comment from BethShelby
Excellent! You got up caught up in a very passionate scene which you watched imagining everything it meant to the people involved, only to find it was play acting. You made the transition from hot and steamy cold and unmeaningful smoothly and used the sentences requited effectively.

Comment from another jim
Whew! For your narrator's own good, I'm glad this guy was just an actor. Otherwise, I'm afraid she would have launched herself across that booth and done something they'd both regret later...LOL!
Nicely done, Carol! I could feel the narrator's passion in your well-chosen words, and her disappointment in finding out the truth. Thank God for our books, eh?!
Great use of the prompt requirements! Good luck in the contest...Jim.
May I suggest two minor changes:
'Taunt' should be 'taut' (tightly drawn, tense). One of those easy slips, like how I ALWAYS use 'discrete' when I mean 'discreet'!
"...I pictured myself wrapped in those arms like a vise,..."
As written, it might sound like you're the vise, rather than his arms. Maybe:
"...I pictured myself wrapped in those vise-like arms,..."
Small stuff, did not affect my enjoyment of your story one bit!

This morning, with a clear brain, (Well- maybe) I can see your suggestions as perfect and will make them asap. I am pleased that you enjoyed the story and appreciate your comments. Thanks again...Smiles to you, Carol
Comment from dmjones
Hi Carol, This is excellent and uses the two lines well. There is an element of written suspense that keeps you wondering until the end just how it will turn out. Excellent and good luck in the contest.

Comment from c_lucas
I was confused in the third and fourth paragraph. It seemed like you changed genders. Other than that, this is very well written Good luck in your contest. Congratulations, over regaining you place in line. You earned it.

Comment from Belinda
Wow... what an experience! Watching two lovers (the one looks like the one you loved) caressing each other with words and others... Only to know that they were rehearsing a scene. Entertaining, with a surprise ending!
