I regret not keeping up better with your posts, dear friend. For some reason, I don't receive notice when you post so I have to check deliberately. I found this and the following chapter, which I will do next. I always love your stories and this is no exception. In this chapter, I especially loved the descriptive passages, although your dialogue, as usual, was exceptionally written as well. I think you are great at describing the scenery and even the clothes Dani picks to wear. I would love to see more of that as it is so helpful to the reader to picture what you are seeing. As usual, I have a couple of suggestions (old English teachers never die) and hope they are helpful.
Rhonda pulled off at a hilltop so a photo of the city below could be snapped... "Rhonda parked on a hilltop to take a picture of the city below."
At Fox, a very small community, they parked in front of the Grill. "At Fox, they easily found parking right in front of the Grill."
I think this just makes things a little more clear to the reader, who doesn't have access to your brilliant mind like I do. ;p hahahaha Love you. Keep writing! MM

I wonder if being greeted by the mother of the bride, may have been a surprise to Danielle or, sometimes we trip over a perception. I've often wondered what living in Alaska would be like, my perception is a wild, as yet untamed landscape, not many left on earth. Beautifully written Blessings Roy

I like this story. I will become a fan so I don't have to search for it. You did a good job writing and I didn't find any errors. The characters are well developed as is the scenery. Thank you for sharing.

Nice, fast moving narrative with enough dialogue to accent the story. Liked the little mystery you kept about Dani's feelings for Stewart, very life--like for a young girl being confused by conflicting emotions and hesitant to make a choice.
It will be interesting to see the interaction at the wedding, and what--if any--more information Dani learns about Stewart.

Life will take you in a full circle right back to where you began. If I'm right, that's a beautiful portrait of Raquel Welch. What a wonderfully written chapter. Best of luck with your writing!
Have a great day, and God bless.

Comment from Elizabeth Emerald
Strong narration--believable characters and dialog--vivid imagery.
Sugg:
A buzz began on her cell phone again=>her cell phone began to buzz again.
strait=>STRAIGHT fall
With Gabe and Ron, they had dinner=>They had dinner with Gabe and Ron.
Together they cheered Ivar as he played guitar with the band [and was their main=>HE WAS THEIR LEAD] singer.
But Danielle fell short of telling=>DECLINED TO REVEAL her plans.
[She ignored offering=>DIDN'T OFFER details.

Your chapter is excellent. It was an interesting and enjoyable read. Your dialogues are natural and realistic. Your chapter held my interest to the end. I usually don't read romances but I found yours really good and interesting.

This is an interesting and engaging story with an excellent pace. The characters are likable and you have created a flow of events that hold the reader's attention throughout and leave one with a desire to see what's next. Well done!
