Nice chapter, dialogue and character interaction is well done. I can tell you really live your characters.

Pete..Negro Driver.....you might want to change that to African American

    Thank you Christof. No one said African American back then. I need to keep my readers in that time period, even in the introduction of my characters.

Ah gee whiz girl, the ending was just getting good and you had her leaving!! I have no fears though for eventually the real ending will come and with a fervor.

Very nice post. It almost rates an R rating but is very interesting and a pleasure to read. Looks like the hospital staff should assign an extra nurse to this ward just to take care of this patient. Good story

My goodness but he seems recovered. LOL
After seeing Margaret and having those old feelings again, it looks like he's either transfering them to Grace or really planning to move on and forget about past love.

Stirring scene at the end. Very passionate. But a nice girl can only allow so much before it's time to leave.

Great dialogue as usual, amahra.
But what a way to leave us../ him hanging. LOL

I thought this was a good chapter that is helping move the story along, however the love scene read as cliched and was not as well writ as the rest of the chapter, or the chapters I skimmed to get the context of the story so far. There were also a lot of typos and SPAG issues that I've listed below. Overall, good work and thank you for sharing. I look forward to reading the resulting events stemming from this steamy encounter.

1.end too soon for me - soon enough sounds more natural
2. I'll never stopped loving you, - typo
3.Water, like beads, rolled down his face - no commas needed
4.her round breasts - already used round for buttocks, try supple or full instead
5. The he -typo
6. hisrmouth - typo
7. his hard organ against her, he felt her body when it shook - don't be afraid to use the word penis, it won't bite lol. also, you will get a better effect here through ; instead of ,
8. She melted into him, like candy to a flame... her arms folding around his neck. - This reads as a weird expression (I've heard of candy melting in your mouth or hand but not on a fire) and I don't understand why you use ... because again you can use ; to create the pause or added effect that I believe is intended

Hope that helps! Best of luck!

Nathan is a butt for sure. His methods are obviously time-tested and launched through percentage success. I wonder if this particular encounter will start a negative reversal of fortune. Nicely penned.

Did Nathan just dream about Margaret as the nurse had such a struggle waking him up, He throws himself at the nurse and wants her to stay, that is what made me think this. Not sure.
