Again, your writing is and editing are good. Your points and views are touched on and come across well to the reader. You gave the reader a mini-confrontation.

Good luck in your following chapters.

Again, I love the steady progression of Cord and Ali's relationship. Nothing rushed, just casual, but progressive. I suspect that Ali's former lover is biting off much more than he is going to be able to chew or digest. Like many of his ilk, he has no doubt underestimated Cord because his background is not as celebrated.

    Thank you for the kind review. I can promise we will see Alan again and it won't be good.

    Oh good, very good. I think it is time he received his day of reckoning.

This was an exciting chapter, particularly the fight scene. Just one thing below. I'm sure it's just me.

"We should've gotten pictures dressed up Friday night."[I don't quite get this sentence's meaning.]

    That was the fiftieth anniversary party for the law firm. The reason they were in NYC. Thank you for the kind review.

I knew there had to be another fight at some point. But as an old country boy, I wanted to see Cord beat his butt. LOL. So, I'll just sit back and keep hoping at some point Drew will get what he has coming to him. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

This is the last photo her and Grandpa (had) taken before she died.

    I've had that 'had' in and out so many times. It's in again. Thank you for the kind review. We will see Alan again in a few weeks and it won't be good.

This is another excellent chapter. You answered the question of who punched Cord. It was not too surprising. I do not see any need for improvement. The picture is great for the story.

Glad I was esentially right of the cliffhangar you left us with. Sometimes it's reassuring that the storyline is traced out in advance. Kate xx

    Thank you for the catches. I've made the changes. I hate those little words, I always leave out and read as though they're present.

I enjoyed your writing. The use of internal dialogue (and external) is excellent. My one thought is that during the fight scene there isn't enough detail in my opinion. Swing and missed - at what? The head? Why the miss? I had trouble seeing it in my head without those little details. Outside of that this was an enjoyable chapter.

    I will think about that area. Thank you for the suggestion.

Good progress. Nicely written.
I'm confused with what benefit it would have made to get his own flight. Her jet was going there anyway.
My, wasn't Anthony the hero in this one?
Best wishes.

    If Cord got his own flight, he wouldn't be relying on Ali's money. It would have been his own. Thank you for the kind review.

wow, your story is so well written. I will love to read how the upcoming chapters will turn out. This fellow is really the troublemaker for the young woman. Hopefully, it will be cause enough to have Cord safe from the bad fellow.
