Oh this is absolutely charming! A compelling read, with vibrant description and characters so real they feel like neighbors. I must visit your profile to see your first two posts of this book. Your ending to this chapter is highly suspenseful and a great 'hook'. Lovely plot, with lots of 'plot action'. (I can't wait to read on...)No sixes left this week, or I would be assigning to this intriguing chapter.

A terrific beginning to a charming story. I love the differences in terms for pop and sandwiches. It gives a real feel to the story. Love that you included the idea of the house being haunted. I hope it is:)

Great work and great story. Thank you for authors notes, even though it is fairly obvious that errors are more colloquial than anything else.
Looking forward to following this story

You would be surprised how often I am told to correct the dialogue. Thank you for the kind review.

Hi Barbara

Comment from judiverse
Ah, the confusion about heroes and tonic. I remember that from when we lived in Massachusetts. That adds flavor to your story. Savannah will make a great setting. Your characters are really interesting in this. The way the guys talk sounds pretty typical, as in their remarks about Paige, calling her a Daisy Dukes. The talk about haunted houses brings up the possibility of the house Paige inherited being haunted. The restoration of such an interesting old house will be great to follow. judi

Comment from Stalking Wolf
This is a well written chapter, the writer is giving good details of events, Descriptions are well laid out. Southern dialogue done realistically. North meets South, should be very interesting when thrown in with ghosts, enjoying.

Hi, barbara. This is really going to be fun to follow. It has all the elements in place for a good, occasionally spooky read. Glad you're posting a romance novel. Well written, as always.
'Where'd that fancy car from?' Seems like it's missing something here.
Take care,
Bev

You must have worked hard on your vacation to post the day after you returned. This is very well written and gives a good idea of the different in thought of two well embedded viewpoints.

Comment from adewpearl
good use of natural-sounding dialogue and fun use of dialect and colloquial speech
You convey Paige's emotion well about being back in the house and having happy memories but also being sad about losing her aunt
coca cola/soda called tonic - that one is new for me - where do they call soda tonic, or is this what they used to call it?
I like the way you introduce your characters - already I like them :-) Brooke

According to this site I found, tonic is used in Massachusetts. Thank you for the kind review.
