It all looks fine to me although I'm reading an individual chapter and not the book.
The setting, characters, grammar, punctuation and 'flow' of the chapter are
great.
I'm sure the book will be great.
Good luck,
Shirley

I'm jumping in on this one at chapter 29. The scene with Jim and Cordero leaving in the pickup and the gravel scattering against Alexandra's window adds a sense of finality and separation. I missed the kiss and everything. I wanted him to ask her to stay.I need to go back and read the other chapters.

    Thank you for stopping by. Sunday will be the final chapter. Next Sunday, I'm starting a new novel.

Oh my! Cordero, where's your head? Go find your lady live before it's too late!

This post is very well written. I understand about multiple rewrites, but they have worked for you. This chapter is flawless and cohesive.

Great job. I look forward to the next chapter!

Rhonda

I really hate it when two people who love each other refuse to be the first one to admit to their love. They have both done everything to prove their love, except to say I love you.

This is another great chapter, Barbara, but somehow I thought that Cord and Ali were already engaged to be married. I must have misread the past few chapters. Anyway, let me know where I went wrong. Best, JohnC

I really liked the dialog today, Barbara. This was very strong writing. Misunderstandings abound as both Cord and Ali are having trouble figuring each other out. This has been a great read, and I'm looking forward to the final chapter. Jim

Well written.
I understand putting tension, conflict, and suspense into a story, but Ali deviated from her developed character. Maybe it's the way humans do (fickle), but Ali built a box and put Cord into it. It would be heart-breaking, but I would not return to her. She refused his picnic romance and then announced she had no reason to to be with him. Done.
Best wishes.

Very well written, and well done on your chapter. The idea that she was going back and not planning to return was a surprise to me. This is definitely a great installment of your novel and I enjoyed reading it. Thank you for sharing.

Well done on this chapter, but oh so sad. I was certain that this was going to be the day when they finally owned up to how they felt about each other. Will it change in the next chapter?

I can't imagine Ali believeing Cord didn't want her to stay. To me he acts like a man very much in love. I thought they had already been making wedding plans. I guess no matter how close people are they can still misread the other person. The idea she was going back and not planning to return was a surprise but maybe what Rosa is telling her will help.
