It is always the best way for any relationship, to begin with no skeletons, for if you keep a secret, it will forever taint your relationship

This is the first posting on this story that I have read. It held my attention and makes me interested to learn more of the story. The characters seem both interesting and complex.

Nice description and I like how well you developed scenes that moved the story forward. The dialogue was okay. It helped me get a better picture of the characters and their goals. Overall, it was a fun read. I'll have to play catch up. gl

Lovely lovely work, Barbara.
Cleverly done, getting all the angst sorted out this way. So romantic, I even shed some tears during this posting.
I am glad to hear you are having some positive reactions to suggestions. Liver is a great idea though chicken livers are much easier on the palate.
Take care and God Bless. Cathleen

Thank you for your kind review. I like chicken liver, but I have discovered a person can only eat so much chicken liver.
Comment from teacherdub
The storyline is smooth,poignant,and moves with a steady pace. I haven't read all of your chapters, so I must rate this one independently. The story seems to be coming to a pivotal point as this chapter appears to be tying up loose ends. Good job. {suggestions for editing follow) td
angry with Roy and I watched you (Roy, and I)
for attacking Roy and I've regretted (Roy,and I've)
He even allowed the townspeople and participated himself in chastising you for over fourteen years."
(rephrase:allowed the townspeople and himself to chastise you..)
protecting you and I (you, and I)

Yesterday I just had a conversation with someone about commas. I am almost positive I don't need them in those sentences. We were doing some research on them. I would like to know your source. I will change the other sentence. It sounds much better. Thank you for your eagle eye.
-
My suggestions for comma placement is to separate the independent clauses in a compound sentence. I know grammar rules change over time, and I base mine on what I taught. Please do not change them if you have other updated rules. I can be a bit rigid in "old school" rules. td

Commas are somthing that I struggle understanding because the rules on them do change. Some are very standard. The puncuation books my son brought home from college do not have a comma in those situations. I guess the editor will have the final say.

Hi Barbara,
This is a beautiful chapter and I am so glad Sara finally let Joe know of her concerns. In my heart I know he isn't a violent man but his job does require that of him sometimes. My husband was in law enforcement so I do understand it. Another chapter of this wonderful book. Well written and compelling. I am so glad the liver helped your iron stats and I pray you will continue to feel good on your path to good health. Blessings, chey

Barbara,
I'm happy your doing better. Awesome art work of Nancy's you picked. Chapter thirty-four is superbly written with excellent dialogue, great narrative and very good detailed writing. I'm glad Sara is chilling out. If I were Sara I'd be kissing him for punching Roy in the face because he deserved an ass kicking. I'm glad there are no more obstacles, unless Joe has a secret of his own. I look forward to reading your last 24 pages in this fabulous book. Rock on and keep on kicking cancers butt!
Melissa.

This is a really good chapter. The dialogue is very realistic. There is also a lot of emotion here. I really like Sara. I think Joe's reaction was realistic.
I was really glad Sara was now able to be in a relationship with Joe.
Very good chapter.

Writers have their own style that they are comfortable with. This is mine. I am sure you will find what works best for you.
