Well, the story has taken a sweet turn to the romantic. I like it. I enjoyed the read, did not find any nits or mixed up italics. Just a good story, thanks, :) Anita

I enjoying to story. I thought maybe Renee and Marie would get together but it appears to be Nell who will take Evangeline's place. I'm glad to know Marie is healing at least physically. Hurry back so we don't get behind with the story.

I am glad that Renee will be getting his life back together. I do wish that Gator would be out of the way permanently. I hate to think of what he is plotting for Marie and Renee. And now that Renee loves Nell what will happen to her. Great as usual, Carolyn

I missed your last few chapters, but I think I get the drift of this. Great chapter with a lot emotion and suspense there for a while. Once again, I'm really enjoying this story when I get a chance to read it. I may have to catch up. So glad, Rennee finally found someone who really loves him.

Someone like Gigi deserves what she gets and deserves the same kind of treatment that that jerk gave to Marie.They both deserve what they get. Good read and keep on writing. P.S. This is a very interesting story. keep up the good work.

Five stars for Chapter 16, pal. New Orleans and Terrebonne Parish - yats and coonasses. Your characters made for a very entertaining chapter. I'm hoping Marie will take a turn for the better, and you must not let Nell go back to Texas. As usual, the dialogue is good. Be well.

Hi Jo,

This is a well written piece, but there is something going on with the italics. Because you use it as thoughts (Which is a great technique) the format errors make it confusing! (Probably the site's fault, not you) I think there are a few italics where they aren't supposed to be.

One example: She slept with a loaded rifle under her bed.
It starts not italicized and then goes italicized mid sentence!

    Yes, I sent this from work to my home email then copied it to fanstory and I thought the italics were messing up. Thank you for letting me know. I'll try to fix.

The writer does a good job of gradually heightening the readers curiosity. The writer does a good job of tapping into the readers mind and leading the reader where the reader needs to go. The writer does a good job of bringing this chapter to a passionate ending and setting up for the next chapter. Good job.
