This chapter was simply
delightful. Liked your
well thought out easy
flowing additioin with
its ample descriptions
and great dialogue. The
banter between Joe and
Sara was a perfect blend
that made this a most enjoyable
read. no nits or spags. Lora

Thank you for your kind review and continued support.
Comment from Hank Foresta
It's tough at places knowing who is speaking. You need to make sure the reader knows who is talking and who is talking to him/herself.
The flow of the story moves ok, but there are times that one wonders who is who and who is talking. Fix this and it does not read that badly.

To say I am surprised by your review would be an understatement. I do want to thank you for the time it took to read my post.
Comment from SWANNY
Good chapter. Well written, structurally and technically sound.
Just a couple of really minor things:
"Nope, just my fourteen year old daughter." (fourteen-year-old daughter)
The following two paragraphs both end with 'crying again'. Maybe you could vary one a bit. Perhaps leave the first one simply at "We better leave or I might start crying."
Boy, do I have him fooled. She released a deep breath. "We better leave or I might start crying again."
He held the door for her. "Let's go. I've promised myself I'm not going to make you cry again."
Other than that, it seemed quite good.

That was enough to make ME sweat, sitting here on my chair! Looking forward to the reunion 'do'. Didn't you say at the beginning that his brother is dead? I wonder if he's the father?

HUmm, interesting idea. I can promise you by the end of the novel we will all know who the father is. There will be a few hints during the reunion. Thank you for your kind review.
Comment from irishauthorme
I read from the beginning, all the way to here. You have an exceptional talent. Your characters are real, the environment comes through as clear as a picture, and you have set everything in a great situation that makes me want to come back to see what happens. Joe fits his role perfectly, size, shape, and determination.
This is a great story.

Hi, Barbara, I'm still with you. I was gone for a time, but I'm back, hopefully to stay.
I did catch up on your story. Sounds like the typical small town. I like your characters. Joe is especially yummy and a brig general to boot. How lucky can she be. I'm pulling for them both and hope all goes well at the reunion but I'm sure someone will have a snide remark or two.
Keep writing, pat

Snide remarks will fly. Thank you for your kind review and I am happy you are back.
Comment from Juliette Chamberlain
Your writing shows the tension that is always lurking around the beginning of a romance.
It is obvious that Joe and Sara are developing strong feelings for each other.
I look forward to finding out what happens at teh reunion - should be fun, and possibly more.

Interesting indeed. this is the second installment that I have read in this little Chick Book. Has potential to be a good Chick Flick, which, in spite of being a male, I do occasionally enjoy.
