This is well written chapter. I know this a Hallmark type of story so, I going to let the PSA about the disrespecting at risk women by looking at girly magazines pass. Though, it is very hard to believe any man and teenage boy would have such a conversation in the real world. A mother and her son, yes, but not a man. Highly unlikely, unless he was a Bible guy.
For your story everything works well and is in keeping with the overall theme. A writer should not suddenly change gears.

Another great chapter here,Barbara, and I liked the issue. The boy is getting a lesson about respecting women. I really liked that. This Gabriel seems to be a good guy. I like him. Ulla:)))

I really want to believe that Gabriel is going to destroy the magazine. I am impressed with the progress he has made, but I also know that changing yourself into someone positive is not always an easy battle. Falling off the wagon is easy when something comes along to knock you off balance.

The magazine does come back to haunt Gabriel, but not the way you think. Thank you.

Boys will be boys, the young ones, and yes, the old ones too. But luckily, as we get older and a tincy-wincy bit smarter and our priorities change. Thank goodness! Thanks for sharing.

LOL Thank you for the kind review.
Comment from Judy Lawless
I like this chapter. You've touched on a subject that too often needs to be discussed with young teens, both boys and girls. It was nice of Gabriel to take on the role of enlightening Joshua.

Comment from Begin Again
Bravo - a nice step-up-to-the-plate with Gabriel and Joshua - but is it going to backfire on Gabriel if somehow Katherine finds it and thinks its his... Oh I should not read anything into your plot. Great reading and I like how he handled the conversation. Smiles!

It will backfire on Gabriel but not by Katherine. Thank you for the kind review.
Comment from Mistydawn
Oh,, I can see how this might go bad for Gabriel. Kathern finding the magazine in his coat. He'll have a lot of explaining to do if she does. I hope int for his sake she don't. Your chapter is well-written, interesting. Your dialogue seems natural and your characters realistic. This is the first chapter I've read of this story, but it was easy to understand what was going on.

Welcome! I hope you return. The magazine will come back to haunt Gabriel, but not by Katherine.
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
I like Gabe, he's honest and helpful. Most men go through the Girlie Mag stage, some never get out of it, but most, like Gabe, see sense. I think the romance will take time, and Katherine will be a bit nervous completely trusting any man again. We still haven't done with Frost, I'm sure he'll stir things up again. Well done, Barb! :)) Sandra xx
