I'm playing catch up but I like your story. Your family's characters sound like they are involved with sports. It is so awesome to think that you move this family in a new town and there are people who are so concerned about them.

Dear barbara, Do you intend this novel to actually be a romance? If it's not about football, and not about school, the only other thing Left for it to be, would be something about change and character building for All your major protagonists. But I don't think they have a category by that name at Barnes and Noble, or even on Amazon books!

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Those men are so kind, it's lovely to have such a friendly community to live and work in. But, we still have that niggle of worry about her being watched. Does it have anything to do with Frost? Time will tell, in the meantime, although Katherine would deny it, something is beginning to sparkle between her and Gabriel. Superb, Barbara! :)) Sandra xxx
OMG! I clicked on save just as I noticed the six I gave you had changed to a four, and I can only update it to a five now! I'm so sorry, Barb. I owe you!!:(

Barb,
Nice chapter where we show the old ways of doing things - friends and neighbors jumping in and helping without being asked. Oh, yeah. I remember those days...
Good job!

Although I love football, nothing beats a good ol' down-to-earth love story that we all can relate to or remember a few bits and pieces of way back when. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-I heard about the snow in Texas.
How much did you get?
-The pizza looks good!
-A good story to go with it
as Katherine gets her house
in some kind of working order.
-The story flows well, and you
must have had some experience
with coaches and young men
helping with packing and unpacking!
-It is very believable, and seem like
the kind of kids you would want to teach.
-There is a sense of camaraderie and a job well done.
-There are continued hints that
Gabriel and Katherine are getting along!!
-I enjoyed the chapter.

Although I do not have the full story as I have just stumbled across this recently, you have such a way of storytelling that I found myself immersed and I feel like I didn't miss anything at all. You are so detailed and captivating as a writer

This is a delightful chapter in your novel. Texans can be so helpful as you have well shown. You show Texas in the best of lights. I lived there at one time and do love the State.

Comment from Iza Deleanu
I love it! Finally Gabriel it's getting Katherine trust. He is a real hero by the way he steps in and takes over the heavy lifting side. I like the humor in this chapter for example here: ""Not sure its official name, but I do have a Mom who likes rufflely things. I do come out of my cave once in a while."
"Sorry, I didn't mean."
He chuckled. "Yes, you did." He tossed a corner to her. "Help me adjust it on that side." After it was on, he motioned to Jordan. "Let's get this mattress on and then we're finished." Thank you for sharing and good luck with the next chapter.
