Exceptional
This work has reached the exceptional level

It's good to catch up with Nathan, Grace, baby Margaret and now (unfortunately) Margaret back in the picture. Naathan surely won't do anything stupid. I read the previous chapters as well and found them, as usual, to be intriguing. This is truly a great book, :-) Carolyn

Wow, this really drew me in, and that's amazing because it's not the type of story I read at all.

So...good hook. :)

That said, the action felt a little plotted at times, with the characters moving from position to position to position to move the story along, especially once Nathan and Grace go downstairs and interact with the Duchess. But that's a minor thing, and barely there; most of this is very good, and I enjoyed reading it. :)

    Thank you so much for reading. What exactly did you mean by, position to position? What could you suggest so I can correct that?

Well to do family, big mansion and servants, how wonderful a life. Your story was excellent and the characters dialog very much believable. Great job.

I like the dialog in your book and the verbs that you use after them. I think they really make you see the picture. However, it gets kind of boring to read after some time (at least for me). In my opinion you should make it more exciting. All together it's really great!

This is a very nice addition to your story. The complication you have added with Margaret making a pass and Nathan still feeling something certainly adds another twist. He and Grace seemed to be doing so well, now this distraction. Things are getting interesting.

I really enjoyed this chapter. They live in a big house and have staff. Both of them love the baby. Then Margaret, his former friend came, I don't think Grace knew anything about her. She gives them a huge check. I think I missed that Eva died.

    Thank you robina1978 for trying to keep up with my story. Eva's demise in, I believe, chapter 11.

Another well written chapter with just the right amount of the tension to reignite the past for Nathan and Margaret and to leave Grace feeling uncomfortable.
Nathan reveals his masculinity by sneaking a peek at Margaret's body and just for a moment rekindling old feelings.
Have Grace and just Nathen been foolish in accepting money from Margaret and what may it cost them?

    Thank you for reading and keeping up with the chapters. Yep. He's masculine, alright. That's seems the source of his problems. LOL

Hello A good story full of real dialogue. Poor old Nathan. It certainly is an era of bygone days. It is nice to read something with so much character development.
May you be well.

Grace is finally happy having a baby of her own at last and a husband, from all indications, who loves her. On that tranquil scene comes an old love who knows how to push all his buttons to get his passion roiling. Margaret is the x factor in all this, will she leave Nathan and his family alone? I think not. She's unhappy, and she will see that he is unhappy, too.
