What a delightful story, great structure, the timing in the progression was perfect for the story. The characters were great, this could be happening anywhere in the world tonight, the rhythm of the story is perfect, although a little predictable it was tastefully written, with a not so predictable ending in the modern open way. Well done, my friend, blessings, Roy

What a wonderful and insightful review, Roy. I'm just delighted. I so appreciate you caught the ending as that was the important part to me. Indeed, it was not the modern way. :)) I bet a better longer lasting relationship began at breakfast, yes? Blessings to you, mikey

Oh my, Michael. I enjoed this as nd was pleased with it as a nice story with great characters and setting ... your usual. Crap, man I did not see that ending coming. Wow. She was more than a one night stand and he had to show her that. Romantic as hell. Very few men would get that, well damn few. Actually, hardly any women will either I suppose. I do. Loved this. NG

You have it exactly on the money correct. I was hoping someone would get it. Thanks so much. I have the feeling I'm a dying breed. I feel like a dinosaur and maybe the last one on earth. I don't think people get this story. It's a waste of time to write it. No one is going to read it. Oh well, thanks so much again. mikey
Comment from Gloria ....
I think you've done a fabulous job with this story, Mikey. The descriptions of the settings are vivid, the unfolding of the action is seamless, and we are given just the right amount of a glimpse into your characters, so what can I say but put here mate, you done reaaaaaal good!
Can't wait to see how this story unfolds.

Okay, you seem to like this then. :))
It's pretty much unfolded. I hadn't thought about following up on it. Perhaps I should. Thanks so much. mikey

Hi Mikey,
I loved this piece.
It is very well written and stays the right side of everything! As with the previous piece, there is nothing sensationalised, which gives a realness and weight to the proceedings.
I have to admit that the ending was unexpected, but chivalry, contrary to common belief is not dead. Not everything is a pick-up line.
I feel I'm going to really enjoy this book.
All the best, G.
"Well, I'd like to unwind in you, doll" - needs some punctuation before the closing speech marks.
Are you okay, miss - needs a question mark here.

I'll get to those suggestions. Thanks.
I'm truly thrilled you enjoyed this. Wow. I'm trying to write straight forward stories without any of my quirky nonsense. So I can't tell you how pleased your review makes me. Just delighted. Thanks so very much, mikey
Comment from Phyllis Stewart
Another good story. I see now that these are all separate. So far, so good. I normally don't see love stories written by men. But then, Mikey is hardly your average guy. :)
