Good morning, Barbara
Good crisp believable dialogue. Your characters come alive as does the scene. Growing up we had a pool table in the rec room, so I can relate to the scene.
Take care and stay safe,
Ray

Thank you for the kind review. Shana and Anderson have a lot of issues ahead of them.
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Superb, Barbara, I'm really enjoying your story. I enjoyed the little hint of attraction on Anderson's part, lol, no more lessons for Shana for a while! It was nice to have a little light moment amid the tension and intrigue, this is what makes the whole story believable. Well done, my friend! :) Sandra xx

Ah, it looks like Anderson is besotted by Shana, certainly being close to her, it's obvious he found it tough not to kiss, but like a good boy, restraints himself. It looks like they've straightened out the misunderstand, where to from here? Well done, Barbara, good scribing, blessings, Roy

Comment from Sis Cat
"Her skin's soft."
Yep! That's all Anderson needs to know for now. That casual touch speaks volumes.
Then there was his sense of smell: "Anderson inhaled the scent of Shana's hair. Lavender. I can't do this."
Terrified of falling in love with Shana, he steps back and tells Helen to prepare dinner.
I love how you go slow and show the two struggling against their growing feelings towards one another. There is mutual attraction and fear of violating taboos and being subject to public scrutiny based upon perceived behavior.
I am really getting into your story. You are right, I care more about their possible romance than the history of the stolen painting. What the painting really is is a backdrop to the art of love unfolding before it.
Thank you for sharing.

It sure is. You've figured my writing out. Thank you.
Comment from Lu Saluna
The chapter was very well-written. Good conversational dialogue, just the right coyness going between Philip and Drew to know they have a little secret.
There was just enough intimacy to let the reader know there was definitely an attraction between Drew and Shana.

Hi Barbara, a well written chapter. Just enough to keep the suspense going. There was a lot of sexual tension between Shana and Anderson.

Comment from Heidi M
You did a great job showing how he's connecting with her on a physical level. You might want to consider showing how he's also attracted to her mind, character and personality.
I like how you're handling this story line.

I will show more in bit and pieces. I off to make that correction. Thank you for the kind review.
Comment from Sixty70
Yes, I think that Anderson shows he is at least attracted to Shana. Is she also attracted to him? She makes an issue of accepting the clothes because of the expense. Does she think she might have to repay him, or does she simply think it inappropriate?

I truly am enjoying this story.This is our first hint of some chemistry between Shana and Anderson.
The household is starting to pick up the hint as well.
Great writing!
