An excellent chapter that I enjoyed reading. It was full of action and tension because of the stranger. You did a great job as always and I'm looking forward to reading more. Shirley

I have to admit I was a bit taken aback when your character let her son go off with a stranger, but having been a single mother, there is a part of me that understands that. This does keep me interested and your use of dialogue is well done. I will look for updates. Please stay safe and don't let kids go with strangers. lol.

You have moved your story along beautifully. I always enjoy reading your work. I really like the length and the amount of space on the page. One thought - a cup of coffee just out of the urn causes second degree burns, a whole cup on a blouse, might need more than a bag of ice.

Wow, Barbara, your book has a wonderful start, and i am seeing the romance lurking in already:) Love this part:
"Ma'am, I was here first, so I'd say I'm not stalking you." He turned. "Nancy, could you put some ice in a baggy. She needs to cool the burn." He accepted the ice bag. "And two large coffees, one with cream and sugar on the side." He handed the ice to Katherine. "You'll need this." The real gentleman to the rescue.

Well, I can't believe Katherine allowed Jeremy to take off in the car with a total stranger. All the of credentials could have been fake. But "all's well that ends well." And if I were a gambler, I see a lot of good stuff coming in this story. Thanks for sharing.

If only a tall handsome stranger could be in all our lives. The stuff good stories are made from. I'm enjoying your book. The son is authentic sounding in his protests to mum.

Poor mum, she can't do anything right. Now we know these two will become an item, but she has four children, that's a lot to take on. I wonder if he has children. I'm liking this one, Barbara, but I wonder what the plot will be. I'm sure we'll all find out soon. Well done, my friend. :)) Sandra xx

I'll bet the football coach is the man who bumped coffee on her blouse. A wonderful episode, it sounds comical, but I think God has His way of making sure people meet, I think this is one of those times. Well done, brilliantly written Barbara, Blessings Roy like
Suggestion, look at sentence. "On the way to practice, at Jordan's...."
