Garth will win this battle. I do wish these two hunks could become friends, but I seriously doubt it. Such a shame. Matthew working on Garth's team would be a two for, but both too head strong. Loved reading this post.

Dylan smiled, "That was very kind of you." (smiled.)

    Yes, I debated bring Garth and Donatelli together as sparing partners, but it just seemed to fit. Maybe the hot Italian might learn to accept the Cowboy, but it will be a long struggle. And Tango might toss a few punches if his boss was threatened.

    So true. They do make good sparing partners, but I think after a while they'll come to respect each other and be able to work together.

    That would be quite the duo

    The women they'd cross wouldn't have a chance. Even with them working together, a few disagreements would be fun and entertaining. Matthew is young and Garth could be like a mentor. I could see it working.

    I like them both so I can see the possibilities. Something to ponder....

Oh my goodness, Donatelli had better be careful, Garth will be all out to prove the judge is a crook. I'm glad that Dylan has met Jenna, she needs him and his team. I'm wondering if Eleanor will show herself to him, it will be more upsetting when she she learns Charles has been looking for her, and she was murdered. Well, my friend, I can't see you ending this story in 30,000 words, not with Garth and Dylan and co, in the story. We'll see. I'm really enjoying reading this, and meeting up with old friends in the story. Well done again, my friend. :)) Sandra xx

    I'm laughing! I've been telling myself that I am at 19,000 words and there is no way this story will wrap up at 30,000. I just can't every let anything be short, straight forward, and finished. I better get busy because there's a lot going on.

    I never expected a six today and now I have two.... I'm jumping out of my skin. LOL Matt told me to wait till tomorrow, but I couldn't...too much to write. Besides, Garth was chomping so hard at the bit I had to let him spit it out.
    I'm having fun and I am thrilled you ar enjoying it too.
    In the middle of court room drama at the moment and of course a visit from Eleanor might be in the mix. Poor Eleanor... when she finds out about Dylan and Charles.
    Well, off I go and thank you, thank you, thank you!
    Smiles, hugs and love, Carol

Great job again! Your writing continues to be full of intrigue! The tension between Garth and Donatelli is well written. The detailed descriptions of the art gallery are well done. I felt like I was there. The emotional depth in Dylan and Jenna's conversation bring the scenes to life beautifully.

It didn't take Garth long to lock in on a suspect. I can understand how upsetting that much be for Donatelli to take. He thiniks the judge is untouchable but I sure that won't be the case.

    Donatelli and Garth will be at each other's throats because their history goes back to when they both started in Washington DC. Thank yu so much for the eview and the stars... I never expected anyone to have one on a Saturday. I thought of waiting... but I couldn't. Thanks so much!
