I thought the read was very well done. I enjoyed the dialogue and the way you described the scenes. I found no errors, so I don't understand your author notes. The chapter was just fine.

    Thank you, you are too kind. I usually read my post about four more times than I did this one. So I was worried I posted too soon.

I found NOTHING lacking or wrong with this chapter. This is a beautiful love story. It is clean - but not sickly so. This would be very appropriate for young teens to read - - - and follow.

Your doing a great job,Barbara, I love your story. We (society) need more stories like this. It could be a good movie.

Barbara Wilkey has written a chapter that is both traditional and fresh, one of the few talents to join this much-plowed field with something interesting and original to say. The charms of Tantalizing Eyes are many, including the picturesque settings, the realistic nature of the plot (a rarity in many mysteries of this type) and the author's simple, evocative prose. But it is the book's characters, and their warm, lushly rendered relationships, that make this work a standout. Among today's authors of traditional mysteries, Barbara ranks at the top. We hope, we will be enjoying her work for years to come.

barbara.wilkey - A little sexual tension between Leya and Steve put some interesting possibilities to the story. Makes me wonder how their relationship will evolve. Well written with no spag that I could find.

I keep wondering when they're finally going to get together. Now that Peggy's gone, I gues we're just witing for her family to do their thing.


After dinner, Leya headed toward her room and was half way down the hall[no comma] when Steven asked, ---
In't "half way" one word?

    I am not sure about halfway. My spellcheck had it as one word. It gigged me went I wrote it as two words. Peggy is not out of the way, she will attempt to get Steven back again. Thank you for your kind words.

They're dancing around the words, aren't they? I wish Leya had been awake and heard him say "I ove You", but I promise to be patient, ha, ha. I know that is coming. Great chapter.

It looks good, Barbara. I really enjoyed this. They're getting closer and closer, but still not close enough. How long does she have to hide out? Forever?

Thanks for the good read.

Regards, anabelle

half way down the hall(-,) when Steven asked, "Would you like to go for a walk?"


Thank you, again, for caring."
I don't think there is any commas in this one.

There was silence(-,) as Steven bent down

There was silence, again.
I thnk you can do better htan there was silence.maybe
an uncomfortable silence encompassed them

I think this is a great chapter, but maybe more description. I don't mean background decription, more decriptive word perhaps.

lots of hugs

he felt her forehead, making certain - add comma
bookmark laying on the nightstand - lying
You are building enough sexual tension into this relationship to light up a city from its palpable energy. LOL I also love the tender moments - her poem, his just looking at her when she sleeps, his holding her hand. I'm sure rooting for them. Brooke
