    Thank you so much, Karen, for the extra special six-star review and kind words. I hate to admit that I'm going to have to go back and read these stories because I don't remember what they are by their names. LOL. I appreciate YOU every day!

    Hello, Sonali, and thank you so much for taking time to read my story. Your kind words, suggestions, and generous review are greatly appreciated. It amazes me that that 40 people can read my stories and not catch the mistakes, but thankfully I can count on you to help me clean them up. ((HUG)) You are more appreciated than I can say in words. :-)

Coming late to the party to review, Ric! Been on vacation. Love the twist at the end of this sad tale. I can't help but wonder what's gonna happen to Bobby Osborne. I picture certain body parts in a vice.

Nicely penned!

    Thank you so much for taking time to read my story. Your kind words and generous review are greatly appreciated. I hope you had a wonderful vacation, and glad to have you back healthy with your wit sharp and ready. Bobby Osborne will be hoping that the only thing he hears cracking is a joke. :-)

    Very funny! Although I think Bobby is in for a "weenie twister."

Very nice little twist to the ending of this All-Time Best. I appreciate them and believe they add another dimension to a story. Can actually see this happening where two women, who do not know each other, are sitting in a bar somewhere talking about a man they want to get with just to find out one of them is his wife. Story well written and well told.

I was waiting for that ending, but knowing it was coming didn't detract from the entertainment. The scene is well written and seemed realistic. Good job!

It is a gripping narrative of two women meeting for the first time in a bar and sharing their personal problems. Nothing in the story appeared unrealistic and the conversations between the two have been quoted in a matter-of-factly manner. The story has been given a suspenseful ending too.

What a twist and the man Nancy and Patti are talking is just the same man, who happens to be Patti's husband, Bobby Osborne. I love the surprise twist at the end of the story. What a small world indeed.
