Another good read. I like the way Miranda knows Dougie so well, but isn't afraid to speak her mind to him. I feel that they are going to retrieve something from that underwater dive that they'll wish they hadn't disturbed. A fine chapter, still engrossing.

So they're off to the pond to seek out Aaron's favourite mission in life, and as Miranda says to herself, he just wants to be approved of, preferably by someone older than himself, Dougie the useless calls to see how Waylon is, and assures that he'll call beck the next day. He seems to have as much moral fibre as a stone wall, beautifully written Gretchen, blessings Roy

Yes, she is really something. I think Miranda has a big heart and is a pushover for these young men. Two boys who need a dad. Bless her heart she will be the one thinking right when they do find something at the bottom of that pond. Good job,
Gretchen. Nancy:)

I doubt Dougie will call again. I can't wait to see what they find, and I'm wondering if they find Missy's husband. That would be interesting. I really enjoy this story.

Like you admitted the other day, you aren't the Miranda type, which I figured. I'd even go as far as to say maybe prim and proper. But it's nice to know when people are versatile and know there way around in any setting. LOL. Because as you say, everyone's greatest treasure in life is to be loved. Thanks for sharing.

    Awe, thank you. I was an under the radar person. Still am. Love to watch people. Learn their tics, habits, body language. You can learn more about someone just by watching. Great review. Thanks. Gretchen

I particularly enjoyed this one as it showed another side of the coin where Miranda is concerned. She seems to be a softy at heart, which only enhances her character's depth. A great chapter, Gretchen.

    She'd tough and no nonsense but has a heart of gold ... unless she thinks you've killed someone. Lol. Thank you for this awesome review. Gretchen

Aww. I liked Miranda's conclusion about Aaron. He's a little daft but he seems like a good-hearted soul and much better for Miranda and Waylon than Dougie ever will be. Hope they find something!

I think I've enjoyed this the most of the Miranda chapters I've read. I especially liked the fight oon the phone with Douggie - it rang so true. Kate xx

Still a great read. So glad I can depend on you for some new reading most days. All sounds very real as well. I am glad Miranda has gotten used to Waylon. He seems to be caring about her as well. No spags.

Dougie didn't disappoint. He was his typical self -- an ass through and through. I'm glad that Miranda got the last word.

Hey, Gretchen, why don't you use a larger font ... like a 16? It sure makes it easier on my old eyes.

I don't know why I'm worried about Waylon going deep-diving. It gives me the heebie-jeebies thinking of him down in all that muck.

    I'm terrible on the computer. I tried to enlarge one time before. It was the same as before. Getting a new laptop for Christmas. I'll try again though. I promise. Dougie is an ass, but a fine ass in his humble opinion. Lol. Thanks so much for this great review. Gretchen

    All you have to do is highlight the entire text and next to font you have size. Just change it to about 16 or even 18, since your chapters are rather short. It will probably increase your reads.

    Will try on next chapter. Thanks
