Well it sounds good so far! I hope Jim and Soni enjoy the Bountiful Harvest Celebration together! It's funny how there is always someone in the family who wants to play the match-mate game, I can surely relate! :) I'm loving your author's notes, quite cute! Our kitties love attention don't they? I have an orange Tabby, a Tuxedo as well as a Norwegian Forest whose an outdoors cat because she loves to climb trees. But the other two demand attention when I'm busy on my laptop. :) I enjoyed your story and thanks for sharing!

Hi Barbra,
you setup a nice dynamic here; the grandfather extending trust to the stranger, and the date for the festival. you also left off on a cliffhanger which is always good in a post. Great job on this one--Ted

Excellent use of dialogue and interaction between the characters. love the idea of the grandfather arranging a dater for his grand daughter. If that was the practice then we would have longer lasting marriages.
Good story plan and development and an enjoyable read

Hi Barbara,

Three different groups of critters all spooked at the same time and heading in the same direction? Deeply suspicious methinks - especially if it happens to be away from the ranch house. Sounds like a ploy to draw everyone away from it to leave it open for 'visitors' you probably don't want ...

Your book is exceptional so far. I had to go back and play catch up, but it was well worth it. Each post/page leaves you hanging to turn to the next.

Smooth chapter with an intriguing twist at the end! The only thing that threw me a little were those two last lines. I don't think that Kuruk's response matches Soni's statement.


"That's not possible. What could have set all the bovines in motion at once? They're miles apart."

Kuruk stood and closed his eyes. "If man's involved, it could."

Kuruk could say: "If man's involved, anything is possible." ?? Just a suggestion.


Otherwise, good post, Barbara!
