Loving your new tale. Looking forward to where it is headed. I do have my suspicions though. Just one tiny spag this time. Riley, your [m](M)om's on the phone."

This is a cute story and I'm sure I'm going to enjoy it. The gentleman keeps bumping into her in ways that aren't making her like him better. I sure that will change over time. I look forward to more.

Gotta love how small towns defy coincidences. I am just barely able to suspend disbelief that this mother would her son go with this stranger, no matter his precautions, but I'll take it to see where this story goes. Well done.

This is funny. And football is a big thing here in TX. I loved the part where Katherine asked, if the guy was stalking her. It was short, simple and easy to read. At the end in the author notes you only mention Jeremy and Jordan, and you mention Jeremey again. I liked this very much though.

Hello Barb, ( barbara.wilkey)
What an unusual, but humorous way of attracting us readers to find how Katherine discovers who the gentleman is. I had to smile about the spill of coffee on Katherine' s blouse and her inpatient son, who kept saying, "Mom I'm going to be late.

Katherine meets up with the guy with the big dog again. Is there something mysterious about his name? Maybe when she learns it, it will mean something to her. I can understand her being concerned about him giving her son a lift to football practice. Jordan is well characterized. He sounds like the typical teenager, and he's in a new school and doesn't want to be marked as a mama's boy. Juliet--now, that's an interesting name for an athletic trainer. I think I'd like to see her in upcoming chapters. This is going great so far. judi

    You will only get glimpses of Juliet. LOL One of my son's had a female trainer and she was great. Thank you for the kind review.

Ah, so do I detect what I think I do, Barbara? A new budding romance in the waiting? She's only been widowed for six months, but who knows what the back story is. I'm looking forward to what's next. Ulla:)))

    Part of her backstory is going to be be released soon. The whole story will take time. LOL Thank you for the kind review.

    Of course, I understand that. Much better to learn about it bit by bit. :)))

Barb,

Nice addition to the story. Funny how she keeps RUNNING INTO HIM - literally. ha

Some notes:
1.) Monday morning, after her early morning run, Katherine rushed
--> 'morning' x2

2.) Jordan grumbled, "Mom, common on! I'm going to be late for practice.
--> come on

3.) Keep my driver's license, and I'll give you my pick-up registration." In twenty minutes call the school and
--> no quote marks in the middle

Nice chapter - I enjoyed!

    Thank you for the catches. Corrections made. I'm always surprised at how many times I edited this and didn't see them. I truly appreciate the help.
