Hi Barbara! Here, in Venezuela, South America, there is some one prying for you... Please, donīt give up... Writing as a therapeutic exercise can help a lot, specially when the author is as wonderful writer as you are.
God bless you my dear friend,
Alba

I'm mainly reviewing for editorial issues tonight, Barbara--so didn't focus on the story. I found no errors here. Great narration as usual.

Excellent piece, easy to read and follow. Many places left open for twists and turns of future chapters. Very nicely done. I can't wait to read more of this sags. Thank you again for such a wonderful piece.

    There will be romance, I promise. I just need to make sure Sara is ready. Thank you for your kind review.

Great chapter. You mesh descriptive and narrative passages together in a manner that makes your writing interesting and fun to read. The dialogue is well-written.

The doorway scene steams and if you had continued to mention his hands maybe roaming her bare back as they kissed, her curves ... it might be HOTTER! It looks like Joe is opening his life faster to Sara but she's not resisting though she might be slower in trusting. It's harder as she needs to consider Cassie.

I get up around five-thirty and do PT (physical training)
I'm not too sure whether having parenthesis in dialogue is an accepted format to explain an abbreviation. I might just have him say - I get up around five-thirty and do PT, that's physical training.
Something like that, as if he's explaining to Sara and us readers indirectly. This is just my thoughts.

Barbara this was a wonderful
expertly written addition to
your storyline. Your descriptions
and dialogues are spot on. Getting
to know Joe and Sara better as they
are getting to know each other is
handled superbly in this easy flowing
read. Prayers continue to be sent your
way...hugs.. Lora

Barbara, I hope everything goes well at the doctor's. My thoughts are with you.

This Part is good, since it shows Sara letting her guard down a little, trying to get to know Joe. He's a very methodical guy. It's going to be hard for her to say goodbye, when he has to get back to work. - John

What I really liked mostly about this chapter is that you got your male character asking your female character about her pregnancy, not often the thing told in a romantic story unless they are in the situation were they are about to have a baby in the story at that moment. I thought it was interesting and well thought of. Might seem a simple thing.
