This was definitely interesting. You addressed the various aspects of life, from curiosity, to surprise, to shock. It was a great story that encompassed all of these things and was also a comfortable read. You did well with this and I did enjoy the title.

Hello,
I find your writing refreshing and riveting. For me it starts with: She and Ree had agreed they were not lesbians, just two middle-aged broads exploring their sexuality before they were too old.
The rest is a delight to read...especially the credible dialogue. - Lobber

Well, am glad that the mother and father of the bride are all happy. Hope the bride is, too!
Hope had a great Thanksgiving!
Some comments:
"reminiscing about what had just occurred" (suggest 'reflecting on' or 'ruminating about' instead of 'reminiscing about' because it usually refers to something much farther in the past.

""Paul what's your line" asks Tom. (add question mark before end quotes.
Pretty (needs open quotes here. Not sure who's talking at this point.) There are other places were quotations are missing.

Did neither women realize the other was married? That would be a shock! I had a little trouble keeping up with the men's names, I'm not sure why. May the wedding go off without a hitch.

    Hadn't thought about it but may need a back story and a follow up. The wedding has to have a hitch seen enough Hallmark and Lifetime to know that

LOL! If the kids ever find out about this, we'll feel the explosion all over FanStory, from US to UK to AU and NZ. It's probably for the best though. Now they'll have a legitimate reason to hang out together. :)

is at the grill, Louise at the bar
this is Diageo
Tom walks away from the grill his hand extended Paul.....does not read well
I think there is dialogue in here? "Diageo welcome to Casa Rainer."
"I tripped, clumsy me," she mumbles.
"Pretty much like yours....this sentence is dialogue.
Marie, work?"
a few tips."
She owns a spa. Louise
"Of course, son," says Tom
and go to Sally. She joins
Marie embraces Louise, "The spa
This is a good chapter, with a few edits here and there. Your characters dialogue is very plausible. Nice twist. All in all well written. I enjoyed it.I hope there's going to be more.

This is very clever. I can only imagine how surprised the two women were. lol I do think it would look better on the page if the paragraphs were double spaced. I enjoyed reading this. Thanks for sharing.
