G'day Barbara.

I know what you mean about not having enough hours in a day and I apologise to you as well for not reviewing enough.


"I am." He took a drink of milk. "Did you milk the cow too?"

"Silly, milk comes from the store." (Hahahaha! Beautifully placed.)

Darn it... I'm out of sixes again.

What fantastic dialogue you always produce. Always very entertaining and hunger causing. I want some cookies now lol.

Great job, mate.

Cheers Fez

BOO's favorite paragraph: "Think a better question is what are you doing?" Anderson moved closer and read the banner. "Welcome to Pirate's Cove. Enter at your own Risk." Well done,mate. BOO-fabulous!

This is really good and I hope I can read back chapters so I can follow the story. The only negative I have is the child "pouted". You said it twice. Since you are such a very good writer I'm sure you can come up with a better way to demonstrate Emily's emotion. Thank for a good story.

    Thank you for the kind review. I have a question for you. An editor thinks I need to change the name of Savannah Love to Secrets of my Confederate Solder. What do you think?
reply by Ben Colder on 16-Aug-2017
    I would not but it is your work. I have not published because of the ssame thing. Ask them why and have them to prove why. If you given in then they wrote it and not you. Just a thought.

It is really cute. I can just see Emily and her excitement and receiving all this adult attention, and chocolate chip cookies to boot. Its nice to read something innocent and pleasant. You have my interest and I look forward to reading more.

Hi there,

I still think you could have run this one together with the previous one making for a more substantial read. Just an opinion. Here you can see the affection between Emily & Anderson and the relation ship with the estranged wife.

nice stuff

    You're correct they do slip together perfectly, but short reviews won in vote. I only had two people. You and one other. Thank you for the kind review.

Favorite line because my family is from Texas: "We need to get this child back to Texas." Anderson helped himself to another cookie. "She needs to spend some time on the ranch and learn where milk comes from."

Kidding aside, I found Emily's treasure hunting game echoes the adults treasure hunting for that stolen painting. This use of treasure hunting as a metaphor is alluded to in these words: "Emily, can you finish your treasure hunt without your first mate? I need Shana's help making a phone call."

After relationship building and using metaphor in your last several chapters, your novel returns focus on the painting.

Thank you for sharing your compelling mystery well told.
