You keep up the momentum. Telling us day to day conversations without being dull and stunted is hard work. It will end soon, I can't wait to see if Sami and Noah survive the close of the case. Karen

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Hmm, I wonder what it is Noah doesn't want Sami to hear. Sounds like it might be dangerous. After what happened when she discovered it was Big T Noah spoke to, I'm sure she won't like what is going on now. It will be interesting to read. Well done again, Barbara. :)) Sandra xxx

Comment from Brett Matthew West
Appears Sami is quite worried about Noah's safety and, whether she wants to admit it or not, falling deeper for him.
"Nodding Sami's eyes" should be Nodding, Sami's eyes.
"Then leaned her head" would read more clearly as then she leaned her head.
So, what big secret does Noah have he wants to keep from Sami that will create "sparks between Noah and Sami"?
Dialogue seems authentic throughout the posting.

I've corrected the first one but still searching for the second error. I will find it. Thank you for the kind review.
Comment from Sharon Elwell
This section is well-paced, and your characters are clearly established. It's easy to tell who is talking by the attitude and dialogue. There were only a couple of quibbles I had that could use editing: "Nodding Sami's eyes met Noah's"and "He glanced at Bob send that message..." No need to explain the problem in each case.
Looks like you've done your research on this type of operation. Good work!

Thank you for sharing this kind review. I will check that area.
Comment from Soledadpaz
My, an interesting situation here. I know I'm dropping in in the middle of things, but it certainly peaks your interest. A few thoughts.
Perhaps: Later, as they sat for lunch Noah asked, . . .
. . . when Boss makes up his mind, none of us (changes) it.
Perhaps a little more detail, maybe: She stopped at the kitchen sink and he stood behind her.
Perhaps for rhythm: But I can if you want me to.
Suggest: You flat (out) said it wasn't going to happen.
Perhaps: Again, I'll try but (no promises).
Inside (comma) Noah finished getting ready . . .
Or could delete: Inside
Suggest: Sami met him (at the door, then pushed) him back onto the porch.
Looking forward to the next chapter.

It's always a pleasure to read your story chapters and see how you will put things together and foreshadow upcoming events before they happen. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent details! T sounds like the pimp on a great movie called True Romance. Wow....I tried to check for spags but am rusty. Looked good. And your dialog is spot on too. I sometimes feel someone might snipe me for complaining about loud flyovers. ð???

Thank you for the encouragement. Welcome back. I don't remember you reviewing me for a while.

Sounds like Noah didn't tell everything in Sami's hearing. Maybe she had more cause for worry than he let on.
I liked how Sami and Noah ate becoming more comfortable about expressing their affection for one another!

Noah and Sami still have a few difficult spells. Thank you for the kind review.

Hi, Barbara
Here maybe I'll try but can't promise
""Again, I'll try but not promise.""
These chapters are always interesting.You're developing the relationships quite well.
I haven't read all of the chapters. I just came back to fan story from being gone since 2019 but even though this is probably only the third chapter I've read, I'm getting an impression of each personality That is to your credit.
I enjoyed reading your story and I look forward to reading more
Good job. Thank you for sharing.

WELCOME BACK!!! I enjoyed reading your review. I know that area is repetitive, but I need those thoughts to come across. I'll keep working on a better way to say it.
