Hello Barbara.
Having only recently rejoined FS, this is my first reading of this book. I find Sami to be very energetic. The fact she ended up in a Peach tree. Led me to that conclusion. She reminds me a bit of the ball in a pinball machine. It bounces around the table and hits all the different objects. Perhaps that is a misinterpretation with a short read. I am aware of human trafficking, and the US has a big problem with it.

    Sami is an interesting person. LOL Noah is pretty much the opposite. Thank you for dropping by and reading this post. I appreciate it.

This chapter seemed like a bit of comic relief, with Sami getting stuck up that peach tree confronted by the long horned steer, instead of Chen's gang. Some nice little romance moments, Sami and Noah are patching over their differences, constructing the perfect situation, I guess. But to me this chapter doesn't really advance the suspense you created in the last chapter with Chen's gang overhanging everything. estory

    It's a building chapter for what is to come, the calm before the storm. Thank you for the kind review.

It is shocking how bad human trafficking is, and it's surprising how many people don't know about this issue. A well written chapter, Barbara, I really enjoyed reading this conversation between Sami and Noah. I'm looking forward to the next chapter.

This is still attention-grabbing. I like the bit about the steer keeping Sami aloft. Keep it all coming. Wondering if we are nearing some more romance with Noah and Sami?

Despite the image, I did not think Sami would end up stuck in a tree with a steer below. Good job Jasper was able to get away safely. Sami does seem to jump to conclusions without giving Noah a chance to finish his sentence and the tears do come readily. I hope Noah continues to have patience with her. Well written and engaging story.

I found no errors and was entertained by this chapter. Sami does have a flair for getting into trouble. Noah now seems devoted to her, but he is going to have to make a job change if their relationship is going to work.

Ha! I was chuckling at the treed woman myself. Then I realized that I wouldn't have gotten down either. Steers can be nasty!

Good fun read. This seems to be wrapping up nicely!

A good addition to your well composed book. The line that made me take notice was this: " "Yes, males are in danger too. Human trafficking doesn't only affect females." You often think about the young girls and forget about the horrors that young men go through.

A well written chapter and a nice close on a topic that is both awful and underestimated by many. It is though we are back in the dark ages. sometimes I think we have never left the. Thanks for sharing and take care.

I can imagine it wouldn't be easy to be married to someone like Sami, one would have to worry where the next change of wind would come, I would've been in trouble with Elaine a lot more than I was. Having longhorns stroll by would be like kangaroos bounding past our doors here, heh heh, well done Barbara, blessings Roy
