He spent the next several hours, decorating - delete the comma
"I love you too." Max - you forgot the period
"Thank you." but her eyes - you need a comma instead of a period there
Did you see the Christmas tree and all the presents? - add the question mark
What a lovely happy ending - great emotion that sounds natural and spontaneous and dialogue that sounds totally natural for all the characters. Brooke

Whew! Talk about a fantastic Hollywood ending. I felt like I was about to see fifty dancing girls, 100 jets flying overhead and a moon launch. Great fun writing this one, I bet.

Comment from pixiemillie
Well what a happy ending to this story. Trent's a big winner at the tables and disappears into the night, Macy's found, Hanna's fixed a delicious dinner, Max gets the girl- -proposes and has the wedding and honeymoon planned--well you wound this one up well. Thank you for the enjoyable read- -still would like to know what became of Trent.

Maybe he'll show up in some gambling hall or rehab in another sequel...Gives me something to ponder on. Thanks for the review. Carol
Comment from --Turtle.
Hey Carol, I read through this chapter,
It was very quiet. (might be able to delete this and add an adjective to the first sentence?)
Mother and daughter were still snuggled deep beneath the covers, fast asleep. (delete were,... more active maybe? changes this sentence from a state of being to an action, I think)
and playing Santa Claus (could delete claus? if every word counts)
This is about as happy an ending as could be... super lovey gushy and sweet. I Liked that you kept it in Max's perspective, that was pretty cool, and his playing santa was a cool way to cozy up with hanna and macy.
You write like a bandit!

Comment from barbara.wilkey
Oh yes. I love happy endings and this was perfect.
Macy squeezed her tightly. (tightly squeezed)
After all, she went through. (no comma here)

What a wonderful story, and I did read the other chapters to catch up, this reminds me of a christmas I did have, and I see so much character in the dialogue you show you, I see why you have so many readers, great writing.

::Sigh ... Sniff::
I love a happy ending. The touch with the carolers singing 'Joy to the World' was just about perfect. Excellent work, I enjoyed reading your novellet very much. Your Romance rocks!
Best of luck in the contest.

Thank you for the uplifting vote of confidence. I couldn't have asked for more. Saying "Your romance rocks" made my day because I feared writing this story because I have never written romance. Thanks again...Carol
Comment from Queenise
I love this sweet and powerful love story with all of it's ups and downs,troubles and cares and the joy. It is so true to life that you feel as if it is really a family you know. Maybe your own. Good rhythm and pace,flow and imagery. Characters are believeable and seem so real. Would recommend. Blessings. Good job. Queenise
