Barbara,

Looks like romance is about to enter the picture. I think Anna would normally not want a man in her life at this point, but she needs a protector. We'll see what happens.

I enjoyed this read and found one nit:

"I protected your son, but couldn't catch the abductor." I think the comma should come out. I had to look hard to find any nits at all.

Dave

    Thank you for your kind review and you are correct about the romance. Anna is not ready for a man in her life. It will take her a while to be ready.

Hi, Barbara. The abduction of Michael is scary. I'm glad the child does not suffer of trauma, or will he? Good hook in the end, it makes me wait for romance under the moonlight. Just hoping nobody looks...:) Interesting write AND beautiful artwork, tell your husband so for me.

Heightened intensity in the determination of Anna's ex. Very well done in line with the slow unfolding of the danger up to this point. Love the image from your husband. It worked perfectly for this chapter. Keep them coming, Barbara. td

Barbara,
chapter thirty five of your book Lonely Hearts Meet is excellently written. You're moving the story along. This is a romantic write. Your descriptive wring is great and dialogue is very good. The art work is gorgeous you used. Anna collects baby Michael form the hospital. Paul, is with her and he holds her little boy as she fills out paper work. I hate paper work in the hospital. Paul asks her to spend time with Betty and him. Once she arrives at their hope, sweet Betty takes her to their guest bedroom. They all discuss about the man who tried to abduct Michael and Paul deduces that her exes nasty mother-in-law hired the creep. Betty suggest they stop shop talk and enjoy dinner. I like the part of the ladies giving Michael a bath and then putting him to bed. Anna goes outside for fresh air where she drifts off to sleep after picking an Indian blanket bloom. Those are exquisite flowers. She drifts off hearing the songs of crickets and their cricket tunes. Troy startles her and proceeds to tell Anna the "legend" of Indian blanket flowers. I liked what you wrote: I love how he copped a move. I felt my breath catch when "Anna turned her eyes to met Troy's. Ooh romance is in the fall air. Your hubby's art work is amazingly gorgeous. This is a most excellent chapter and I'd recommend it to other reviewers. I look forward to reading more a week from today. How's school going, Teacher. You are a top notch writer. I love your stories, Margaret, Avril and Rea's just to name a few. Please have a super day.
Melissa.

    You are so encouraging. Thank you my dear friend. We are almost done with the abuse story and ready for the romance to begin, but I need to be careful with it because Anna has so much baggage. Thank you, dear friend.

I can see where someone in this situation was have a fear about being in constant danger..it would really frighten a mom where her children are concerned. We need to pray and be as supportive of anyone, that comes our way, as we can. I never heard of the flower or its legend. Great chapter. God bless.

Doing a good job. Really looking forward to see how this all works out.

Betty walked into [the] room carrying Michael. "No more shop talk. Dinner's ready and you know my rule about discussing business around the dinner table."

When she walked into the living [g]room,

Roberta

    Thank you for your kind review. I will go back to the usual image. Anna was looking at those flowers so I used a different image.

Good morning Barbara. Another great chapter and the story is consistently developing smoothly. Characters and dialogue still believeable and without clutter.

Para starting 'Betty walked' - insert 'the' after 'into'
Para starting 'They watched' - rise/rose.

Hugs Mia
