I enjoyed the timing and style of your story. It is an apt description of falling in love, with the fear and playfulness included. Good luck in the contest. Diana

    Thanks, my friend. Your reason is probably why it?s doing well. Everyone has been there or done that.

A heart donor, that's a very generous gesture.

Good flash fiction entry for the 75 Word Story writing prompt contest. You followed the rules and developed an interesting story.

Good luck in the contest.

    Thanks! Seems this one is ringing true with the voters. Good or bad as it may have ended.

She stole whatever belongs to you? What a crying shame. How about you get whatever she stole returned. If she laughs, I hope it is not too loud because they'll find her. You wrote, a story that had a plot; met the requirements.

    Thank you Rosemary. I bet you have stolen a few hearts in your time.

    I hope the only heart that I stole was my husband's heart!

very good, portraying someone perhaps flighty and callous, with the full meaning of reciprocal feelings at the end. And that picture helps with the reader's feeling that she was indeed covetous. However ...
A story told in just 75 words is a neat achievement.
Good luck in the contest.

This is a sweet little love story packed into 75 words. You breathed a lot of life into her playful character. I think she had an appreciation for the value of a vintage heart.

    Thank you, Nicki. Not sure why, but Flash Fiction has become one of my favorite venues to write. Feels like a tease.
