Dear barbara, this chapter gave us, the reviewer's and readers, of your story, some interesting clues about the character of our main protagonists, and maybe why they got that way, All you need now is something dramatic to happen to somebody, to break the ice.(smile)

Thank you for the encouragement.

Let me just say that, even with the absence of wild sex scenes, violence or really bad and offensive language. This wonderful story would make a wonderful movie that I would watch and encourage everyone I care for to watch as well. This is good story telling at its best.

I don't do sex, violence or offensive language. It's not who I am or who my intended audience are. Thank you for the kind review.

Barbara:
New relationships can be complicated, can't they, especially when
both parties think they're not interested in having one? I would
imagine it would be difficult to consider having a relationship with
a man who has been a playboy in his past - especially in this day
and age. Guess we will have to see what happens.

Comment from thaities, Rebecca V.
This is another chapter in a highly interesting story. I get so drawn into it that I find myself looking for more.
Noticed two typos:
After Katherine point (pointed) to a place in the closet, Angie petted Daisy and continued,
"You'll work everything out and realize how right I am. Not (Now) get, and take those boys fishing."

Comment from lancellot
Another great chapter, we are really learning a lot through character interactions.
notes:
Katherine would work {in} her bedroom and the den.
- what you have is not incorrect, but it may be clearer with the word 'on' because she putting those rooms together.
"I wondered what [was] going on." Angie paused.
- missing word?
she added, "Especially a self-centered jock."
- Katherine has mentioned this before, but WE, the reader hasn't seen the reasons for it, plus her son plays football. What will she call him?
Jeremy walked to him. "Coach, you're funny. Why'd I eat an apple when there's cookies?{'}

My Internet is acting up and not allowing me to save comments. Katherine's version of 'jocks' goes back to childhood. We will learn more as the story continues.

It's not the internet, it's FanStory. I had to switch to the Classic version.

Hi Barbara, As you know, I do like the story and it's moving forward at a nice pace. It's great writing and something is brewing. Just found one thing. :
How well do you Gabriel?" = How well do you know Gabriel?"
Ulla:)))

Seems everyone thinks that Gabriel and Katherine are a great match, how come they don't? But that's the way relationships quite often start, but I know and you know where this is headed, well done Barbara, you're a good writer, blessings Roy
Typo : After Katherine point(ed) to place..2: I think you two would make (a) great couple.3: Gabriel's parent(')s farm...4: I didn't realise the (debt) comment. Depth?
