Really enjoyed. God bless with you're book. Especially liked this paragraph
"What are you barking at? You're too little to do any good." Cash removed his cell from his jeans pocket. "Billy Joe, can you and Mary Pat come to Paige's? A note was taped to her door. It wasn't a welcome message." He put his phone away. "There'll be here in a few minutes. While Billy Joe and I search the place, Mary Pat'll stay with you and your vicious dog." He petted the pup on the head.

barbara:

I hope nothing has happened to Billy Joe since he and
Cash parted company. Better yet, I hope he's not involved
with this threatening of Paige. Morgan may be a little
pup but little pups can be vicious when they need to be.

thanks for sharing
love,
jan

I enjoyed the longer read, Barbara. Poor Paige. I wonder who sent that note? I'm glad she has Cash there to make sure she's safe. I didn't see anything messed up, quite frankly. It reads very well.

I only saw one missing question mark.

"I wonder if his people own that large plantation north of town by the river(?)"

Great read! Enjoy your trip, Barbara.

Hugs, Av

Now why doesn't surprise me the Walker might own a plantation. lol

Hmm, if he Walker family are broke, why would he be so hoity-toity? I'd think he'd be more understanding of people like Nala.

Uh oh, did Cash put a gun in his pocket?

Oh wow, that note is a throw back to hooded sheets. Cash needs to stay close to Paige even more.

Goodness, you started this chapter making my mouth water (I love fried catfish), and left me worried about Paige and Morgan (I can see some bigot hurting that defenseless pup).

Again, you have another great chapter, with nothing I could see to tweak. Sounding like a broken record here, but in all sincerity, well done.

Oh man! You are tempting me with that picture of food! It makes me hungry for Captain D's. ;)

"I'm sure Paige won't wake up for a long while."<< That is a little creepy. Since I don't know this Nala character well enough to know if she is friend or foe, I'm left wondering what she meant. Is that an innocent comment or did she slip something in Paige's tea to make her sleep? LOL I'm bad about reading too much between the lines. ;)

This paragraph needs some clarifying:

Cash winked and grinned. "That's a pretty good idea. I'll do just that." <
You said the vet said thinks he's a purebred<< oops, an extra 'said' sneaked its way in after 'the vet'

"Mom, how close is dinner?" Cash took the wiggly << So who is Cash's mom? Faye? Or did someone else say this? As you have it now, it appears Cash is saying that line, so Faye must be Mom.

Faith sounds older than Paige with her teaching everyone the history of the plantation. She must be one smart cookie.

"Won't he see your truck?" Wouldn't that be a good thing? Maybe keep Walker away if he knows someone else is there? Preventive, kind of like the ADT signs in the yard.

Ok, I now see for certain that Faith is Cash's mom. I was very confused and had myself all turned around. I thought Faith was Paige's daughter. Man, did I get that wrong!

I'm a stickler lately for dialogue and speech tags. I don't know if I said this in my last review for the other chapter, but yours is well balanced. Not too many tags, or so few that I don't know who is talking. Good work!

    I will check those area out. I thought I took that said out. I don't know how it got back in there. Thank you for the kind review.

    OH MAN. I explained myself much better about the paragraph that needed clarifying, but I accidently deleted it when I was deleting something else. Argh. I spent a lot of time on that too.

    I basically said, that the way you have it set up makes it seem strange. He rushes in there and I'm thinking he's going to wake her up and ask her why she's not taking pain pills. Instead he tells the puppy not to wake her. Why did he let the puppy in at all then?

    Maybe you should have the puppy run in and he follows to keep him from waking Paige.

Barbara - I've said before that I'm on FS to learn. Boy, what I can learn from you. I struggle sometimes in the switch from narrative to dialog. You are absolutely the master! Your posts read so well. You literally pull your reader through. I'm sad to see them end! Warm regards, Bill

Hi Barb
It's go good how you kept your conversation going
To me it makes it more home like.

Good way to get our attention about Morgan (he to me scents something) maybe a ghost?

This story chapter is taking the story forward at a good pace. Mulberry wine, jams, and jellies were also a big favorite in the South. That meal menu made me hungry! Enjoying this tale!

The chapter has a nice, steady and consistent pace. The chapter is well balanced as the transition between events is smooth. The storyline is clear as the writer does a good job of leading the reader where the reader needs to go. The writer does a good job of closing this chapter out and setting up for the next chapter. Nice work.

An excellent chapter Barbara, and I don't see any where that you might have messed up.

Oh I love catfish, and your description of the catfish dinner has me drooling.

I wonder what happened to, or who got to Billy Joe.

Have a safe and wonderful visit with your parents. I will be looking forward to the next chapter on your return.
