I did read this chapter, but I need to do some backreading. I have missed some prior chapters. and have been wondering what the outcome is of Emma and Seth. He has a sling on his arm in this chapter. Hurt for some reason~

Thank you for the kind review. Seth was shot when the stalker broke into Emma's house. Emma shot the stalker.
Comment from Ric Myworld
It's make sense to me that those who are late to lose their virginity are higher educated, have a better income, and healthier relationships than those who are active earlier. It makes sense. They aren't studying, working, or learning, since they are having sex. Now the problem is: deciding which kind of person you'd rather be. :-) Thanks for sharing.

I agree. I have reviewer who continually states my novels aren't realistic because they don't immediately have sex and I like to develop the relationship. This reviewer states, there's no reason for the guy to stay with her. Thank you for the kind review.

It's sad that people of today miss out on the thrill of the chase and give up their most sacred possession so easily and free. Stick to your views, which are more practical for people with morals. :-)

Thank you.
Comment from estory
Seth and Emma continue to dance around each other without taking that final step. She still seems to be holding him at arm's length, he still is trying to maneuver her into taking that final step. Then there is the scene where Calhoun shows up and casts a shadow at the restaurant. He is poised to make trouble, and since he hasn't done anything yet, Seth can't take him out of the picture. So there's some suspense building. estory

Comment from royowen
Both my daughters married their one and only boyfriends, so I think your research is spot on, after all sexual purity is a gift from God and also a gift to one's partner in life, both my daughters have successful long term relationship, you keep on writing your heroes and heroine's the same, well done, blessings Roy
Typo : You'd be in (a) sort of uniform. 2: I bet (it) was good.

This is an excellent chapter. I appreciate the fact that you keep you stories clean and the relationships or healthy. I like the Christian values your characters. I think these romances are something parents would be happy to see their teens reading but I couse we older people love them too.

I agree. I don't want to be embarrassed if my mom, who reads my novel, by Bible Study ladies, who read my novels, or my pastor, or my granddaughter read them. Thank you for the kind review.
Comment from Daylily
Your story is developing very well, Barbara. The main characters are relatable and are watching out for each other. I like the small town flavor, too.
Note: Something appears amiss with this sentence:
He held up a hanger holding with his uniform shirt.
Also:
She touched her cheek. "Pretty good. You're timing (is?) perfect."

Comment from Jim Wile
That was a delightful chapter, Barbara. At least we got a kiss on the cheek. We're getting closer to the real thing!
I loved how the Elliotts are beginning to come around now. Maybe hanging around some good kids will do Marc some good.
Not sure why Seth didn't enjoy the moment more when Emma was helping put his shirt on! I guess he wanted to see her reaction when he warned her about it. That was amusing.
I sure like these longer postings, especially when the story is interesting as this one is. You're right, though; 3,900 words is too long for FS.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Sorry, my temperaments only improved slightly." - Missing ' in temperaments
He held up a hanger holding with his uniform shirt. "With one arm there's no way I can tuck in this in." - Eliminate "with" and the first "in"
"Ace, go with her. Let me know when you're about ready, and I'll call Carl." - I know Ace is smart, but does he really understand that second sentence? (Just kidding. I know the second part was for Emma.)
Ms. Barton arraignment begins at three. - Should be "Barton's"

Seth enjoyed Emma's moment, probably a little too much. I think that's why he asked her to move. LOL Thank you for helping with the errors. They've been corrected. I always appreciate help.
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Things are falling into place nicely, Barb, and Marc has learned a valuable lesson, as has his father. Just a few niggles to take care of, Ronald Calhoun for one. I think there is more to him that we don't know about. A man doesn't behave like just because he dated someone in high school. We will have to wait and see. Now the trial for Peggy, will this really stop her? Great chapter, Barb, well done! :)) Sandra xx

This was a fun read, Barbara. I loved the scene when she tried to help Seth out of his tee shirt. I could just imagine it all. Now, the danger for Emma is not quite off yet. I'm looking forward to the continuation. Ulla xx
