Hello, Barbara,
I enjoyed reading your story. Good plot and character development. You have a lot going on that will collide eventually. What is coming next? You created an intriguing ending.
Well done!

Whew! I'm glad that Anthony came and put a peaceful end to the fight that Alan started with Cordero. It's good that Cordero and Ali are redefining their relationship and even considering the name that Alan called Cordero. That adds humor to their dialogue.
"her and Grandpa had taken before she died" (she and Grandpa) I've heard casual speech using "her" instead of "she" as the subject but more in Texas. I don't know if a native New Yorker would do that.

You are so right about 'she' and 'her'. I've changed it. I've been in Texas way too long. LOL Thank you for the catch and the kind review.

I enjoyed the Texan speech. All the regional dialects of the US are so fun!

They are. My husband was active military, so we've lived all over the US and have had fun with all different dialects. LOL

I knew Alan would have to show up sometime soon. I wonder what he will try and do next. I'm eagerly waiting for the next chapter. Enjoy your Sunday evening. Shirley

Comment from Jay Squires
So ... the open question for this reader is how long can Cordero stay away from Ali while he knows that Alan will stop at nothing to get her back for himself. With that silent threat in the background, I can see no way their relationship can continue with her in N.Y. and him on the Ranch. I'm sure that will comprise much of the next chapter or two. Good job, Barbara!

I can promise a lot will happen coming up very soon. Alan does pay Ali another visit and Cord isn't around. Hmmm Thank you for the kind review.
Comment from judiverse
Anthony is a handy guy to have around. Maybe Ali should take him back to Texas. Alan chose to belittle Cord, but what precisely are Alan's credentials? He certainly isn't the brightest bulb, if he can't get it through his head that Ali wants nothing to do with him. It's brought out that Ali has benefited from the best schools, etc., but that has apparently led to her leading such a sheltered life. Cord shouldn't have been bothered by Alan's reference to "boy toy." At least Cord isn't delusional. Alan makes a threat. We'll see if he tries any more interference. He's such a slow learner. Great Chapter. judi

Alan is a lawyer, but probably not at the level that Ali is. We will see him again. Thank you for the kind review.

You're very welcome. I hope Alan doesn't take a notion to follow Ali to Texas, but it looks like things might be headed that way. judi
Comment from Sankey
A great chapter, once again. I said to someone and same to you, these stories should be offered for movies or mini series or something. Keep it coming. No spags.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
You get my first six! I really enjoyed this, especially when Ali had a go at him for being so stupid about education etc. When she put it to him that she knew nothing about ranch life and told him she must be ignorant, and living at his ranch free of charge, making her a kept woman, that was brilliant. But we still have that creep Alan to deal with, I make a bet he's not finished yet. But Ali will be better off living at the ranch, happily married to Cord!!! LOL. Well done, my friend. :)) Sandra xx

Comment from royowen
I'm impressed by how socially layered this is. Your knowledge allows you to walk through a social mine field, knowing how man classifies and categorises people, and knowing how God classifies and qualifies...ALL who live by faith as the same, equal with His Son, one qualifies for Heaven, the other ends at death. Beautifully written Barbara, blessings Roy
