I just don't get to FS much, so always am reading a chapter as a stand alone. This was had a lot of meat to it and was as always well written. I was struck with your background statement, "Respect any man who heals a broken woman he didn't break and raises a child he didn't make." Says a lot!
Very well written Barbara!

Hi Barbara, I didn't didn't realise , but all my sixes have gone so a fiver it has to be. As per usual it's very well written and I enjoy the story. I'm now looking forward to the next chapter. I hope your family is okay in Missouri as some severe tornadoes have swept through. Ulla xxx

nicely written.
"Those are touchy subjects. Some members will allow them to point. - to 'a' point?
Tyler sounds off-puttingly controlling in this chapter.
Best wishes.

Thank you for the kind review and the catch. I have made the correction. I'll keep an eye on Tyler's bossiness. I believe his intentions are good.
Comment from Sankey
I am really enjoying this. I come from a background similar to Rebekah's religious restrictions for men and women. Just one small miss I think."I'm waiting for you to return (to?) the couch."

Thank you for the catch and the kind review. My home had religious restrictions too, but not this bad.

The plot makes it interesting, as the pair who are strangers at first find themselves under the same roof. Bridge out, power out. That's when you can deepen the emotion and learn about each one, as they learn about each other. I like the way you present her, having been raised to be a saved Christian, but under a roof where legalism chokes the liberty in Christ. I may have read too much into it, but that's me. You have me along for the reading ride. Blessings...

Nope. You got it. With too much law one misses the message of Jesus. Thank you for the kind review.

I enjoyed reading this chapter. It's very romantic, as usual. I would love to have Tyler as my doctor.... he is so attractive... lol
Well done!

I love this new book of yours, it has all charms and romance in the right places, how I wish this will be true in real life. I guess I am still longing for that:) in the meantime I am just stuffing myself with your pretty dreamy romance.

Thank you for this kind review. True romance is difficult to find. I feel most of the time we find it when we're least expecting it.

I hope that Tyler would be successful in recovering every trace of guilt from Rebekas mind .He is determined to face her father too . Rebecca will take some time to melt off her reservations..

It does take Rebeka time to recover and to trust Tyler. None of this will come easy. Thank you for the kind review.
Comment from Paul McFarland
This was one of your best pieces, Barb. The story flows very nicely, and you are developing things very well. You have picked a good spot for a chapter break.

Tyler seems almost too good to be true. He is taking good care of Rebeka, but I believe that's the way he'd treat anyone. Oh, dear, if he has to leave, Rebeka will probably have some kind of emergency. I'm curious to see how she'll handle the situation with her father. He outdoes the Amish in his beliefs. I hope she won't let him continue to force his beliefs on her. Look at Tyler's statement "I'm waiting for you to return the couch." I think something's missing. Seems like it's taking a long time to get that bridge repaired. Great job with this chapter! judi

So far, the bridge repair has only been 2 days and it's a weekend. Thank you for the kind review. Rebeka's father is an interesting character. We will discover more as the story continues.

I can't remember whether you had mentioned Rebeka's mother. I am assuming she's dead. You are right--those repairs do take time. My brother lives in Georgia and just got his roof repaired after it had been damaged in a storm several months ago. judi

Rebeka's mother will enter the story shortly. She will bring another dimension to Rebeka.
