This is moving along at a good clip, Rogers and Brown need to get their comeuppance and soon. I am sure Cord and Alex can work stuff out. Cord cannot leave his ranch for long periods. Alex is much more flexible. They can take turns visiting each other. Perhaps they could invest in a plane. :-)

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
Alexandra is a New York lawyer, but I think she is trying to be a tough Texas cowboy lawyer in this story. Is she not afraid of those big bad boys when she gets to New York?

Barbara,
I stumbled onto your novel in the midst of the action; but like any good novel, I get the gist of what this story is about. (I studied Spanish in college, and, at one time, I was fluent. It is a beautiful language, another reason I like your story).
I like your characterization, and the way you keep the reader guessing about what comes next.
Congratulations on being published!
Good luck with all you write.
Blessings,
Cindy

Comment from dmt1967
"You're armed, aren't you?" (When he nodded, she started to say something, but instead answered her ringing phone.) This is very telling. (He nodded. Alexandra phone rang.) Something like this, in my opinion, is short and sweet.
(She shot a warning glare at Cordero for laughing.) Again, telling. (Cordero laughed and she shot him a warning glare.)
This is another great chapter. Thank you for sharing and have a great week.

Thank you for the kind review and catching those small points. I did put them there for a reason.
Comment from estory
I thought the dialogue was very engaging and it also revealed the mutually respectful / romantic relationship Corderro and Alexandra are dancing around in. And also Alexandra's quick on her feet posturing as he deals with the other lawyer. I thought it was all very well composed visually with lots of good detail and I could deffinitely see this unfolding on a TV screen. estory

Comment from Judy Lawless
This is an excellent lead up chapter to the visit, in a dangerous setting, Barbara. And I like that Alex and Cord take every little opportunity they get, to learn something more about each other. Well done.
One little spag: Van Horn's up head(ahead).

Comment from Anne Johnston
Another good chapter. I like the way Alexandra responded to Mr. Brown. Sounds like she knows what she is doing and won't let anyone put anything over on her. Romance is progressing.

Here I am wondering who is broken
I'm going to say, You for some
reason not comfortable of what you are saying, here is an example
"If you meant, do I wish you were from Hispanic descendants? It's not important as long as my culture's respected. You do." Cordero exhaled. "Now for the tough one. If you meant, do I wish you weren't from New York City? I do wish that. But I need to add, I care about you, a lot. Being from the city is part of who you are.
Barb, One thing about your writing is written very well, so I can understand what you are saying

I used to eat at Whataburger in Ft. Walton Beach Florida way back in the days. My favorite late night pig out after a night on the town. LOL. It appears that Alexandra is more worldly wise than I had figured her. Thanks for another great chapter.

Thank you for the kind review. When I need to cheat on my diet, Whataburger is one of my favorite places to go.
Comment from Theodore McDowell
A nice post pushing the plot along with Amy and Mr. Brown at the same time and developing the characters of Alexandra and Cordero. A good flow to this chapter. Good work.
