-It is a good photo and
story to go with it, barbara.
-But first, I am sorry about your
fall and not being able to see your family.
-Take care of yourself and hope you
are better very soon.
-I enjoyed this chapter because it
focused on the good things in the
lives of these characters. Just like
us in the real world, they needed it.
-I like the closeness developing between
Gabe, Katherine, and her family.
-The scene with Jeremy was very
good, and I could relate to it from
a teacher's perspective as well as a parent.
-The last section was also good, showing
the developments in the upcoming case
and in Katherine and Gabe's relationship.
-It was a tender moment between them.
-Well done!

I am sorry about your fall. I will pray that your wrist will soon be better so that you can type your awesome stories without discomfort. Get well soon.
A smooth continuation of the novel .I like the way the two of them are very careful about their feelings.

Hello Barbara.Wilkey,
LOVELY piece of Romance Fiction having lucid as well as PERFECTLY matching the theme phraseology, CAPTIVATING flow throughout from the beginning to the end, and beautifully depicting its theme, especially Gabriel's character magnifying him as caring, patient, and balanced in all respects.
Your LITERARY STYLE is highly commendable and worth following: To convey the message without speaking such as, "He matched the kiss...He stood."
Entertaining as well as Educative!
Superb!!

You blend the everyday routines and problems of family life with this burgeoning romance in a most believable way. Another chapter with an easy flow, and a good balance between action and humour.
So sorry to hear about your fall. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

"Football Chapter 28 part 1"
Even though this is the first time I've read your chapter book it was very well written.
Also, rich in Theme and Imagery.
It read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
Thanks for sharing and have a blessed week Barbara.

I'm so sorry to hear about your accident, Barbara. I know you were really looking forward to your vacation time.

I'm looking forward to the trial phase. That should be the final obstacle to their intimacy.

A few notes:

Jeremy handed the folder to Gabriel. "Mom doesn't trust me."
"Why not?" [I'm curious who said the "Why not?" Katherine? It wasn't Gabriel because he answers the question in the next line of dialogue. I would suggest a tag for "why not?"

I was at practice, so didn't have time to ask questions." [... so {I} didn't have time to ask questions."]

Thank you so much for writing this chapter, especially under such difficult circumstances. What a shame about your holiday - as well as the pain and difficulty of trying to type with a broken wrist. I hope you will be able to heal as quickly as possible. Thank you for another interesting chapter.

You have eased these two people together. I can see this unfolding into a delighted ending, and that's a good thing. I know we have a dirt pile to climb over, but we will make it. Good one, Barb.

    I am looking at Xublon, a Christian publishing company. I am not sure the way for me. I wish to do a series of westerns, all created within true history., but not sure about this generation. If you run across something of interest let me know. We are seemed to be looking at the same omen.

    sure will

    It takes about 1000 copies sold for breaking even with most self-publishers. Then thirty books per year to keep it listed. These people have listened to steal.

Thanks for sharing another chapter. Sorry you had a fall and missed part of your vacation. It must be hard to type with a broken wrist. Hope you get the cast on and that it heals quickly.
