This is another well-written and interesting chapter, Barbara. It looks like Katherine will be alright, but of course the chemo could bring her down. Her relationship with Gabe is developing further and more quickly. He's a really good guy. I'm enjoying following them.

Again, enjoy your time with your mom. We'll all be here when you get back. Hugs

Hey, Barbara! I know I haven't reviewed in a while so I popped by to say hello and WHAT?

How much have I missed? Katherine has cancer? Her parents-in-law are trying to get custody of the boys again? There are only six posts LEFT? I going to have to catch up, lol. I hope you're feeling better! I read your author notes. I can't wait for the next chapter!

Those in-laws will stop at nothing, it seems, and the only reason they want the boys is because of the inheritance. I must believe that they won't be successful, but I'll see how it goes in the story. Texas can't be anymore football-minded than Arkansas! lol

Another chapter chronicling the romantic day to day lives of Gabriel and Katherine. It is interesting to see how the circumstances of their lives show their different character traits as they interact. I'm enjoying the story very much. Your writing is superb.

One typo...

She cuddled into his chest and yawned. "I'll agree with that. I'm sorry I was being ridicules. (I think you meant ridiculous didn't you?)

This an excellent chapter. Of course, another problem popped up in that the former in-laws are going to take her to court again. These people have not feeling except from themselves. I thought I new what meant about the sewer drainage. I came home with a tubes for drainage with appendix and gall-batter surgery.

Barbara, this is the best book you've written, and that's a fact. It's believeable, because you know what Katherine is going through and you're using your experience to write this. I'm worried again about her dreadful in-laws, they should be put in prison and the key thrown away. How dare they use Katherines illness to gain points. I'm so glad she has Gabe by her side, and here son's are grounded in their loyalty to their mum and their coach. This is a lovely story, my friend. I'm loving it. :)) Sandra xx

The storyline and your blushing characters are excellent as always. They are settling into a nice groove and Gabriel seems to have a firm hold on what really means the most to him.

I appreciate all the information you shared in your notes as well. Thank you so much.

Hugs, Carol

    Thanks... LIfe has jumped into the cesspool again but I am handling it, I think. Or at least I am trying. Have a great visit with your Mom.

    And Arianna has paid for 5 treatments and I believe Mayo has agreed to transfer her to the clinic on Tuesday if necessary. That's a plus!
