Comment from Nicole Schmidt
Her hair was up in a bun with curled tendrils on each side of her face. In front of the bun was a tiara to match her earrings and bracelet.
Nice use of imagery here and throughout the story.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
That was what it was like back then, the daughters were 'sold' to the richest suitor. How horrid that must have been. This was really well written, the imagery of the rooms put as there. I'm really enjoying this story, Joan, I'll read more tomorrow. Excellent. :)) Sandra xx

Hi Sandra.
I am so glad you are enjoying it. I respect you opinion since you have been writing novels for a long time.

Comment from Esther Brown
Seems like Victorian times. So glad we can pick our own spouses now, but not sure we do much better. Two fixes. Ignited animosity. The second one "than the Aggie liked" I think would work better if you made it into two sentences. Thanks for sharing the story. Esther

Comment from Tom Horonzy
Two suggestions to begin. First, the font needs to be larger, and I think you know that for old codgers to read, comment and review and second the ending sentence feels awkward.

Thanks for continuing to read. This is the default font from the site's regular editor. I will work on the last sentence.

Hmm.?! I never had a problem editing font style and size. So, I don't understand. Like POTLATCH has one size fits all or whatever the organized challenge is?
