This chapter makes the reader really feel the family connections in an organic way. I felt like I too was visiting with Troy and his parents. The way you make the warmth jump out without it being cliched is impressive.

The family scenes are nice, but I'm still wondering what purpose they serve. Are they character development for Troy? Do they show that Troy has powerful people working for him. I"m sorry if I just sound harsh. We already know that Troy and his dad are on the trail of Anna. That's all.

Finally we get a look at What Troy does for a living. I never guessed that heowned the bookstore. I thought there were building inspectors who inspected construction work as it progressed and had to give their okay on it.

No spags.

Barbara, this is a good chapter as always. Lucky that Troy and his parents seem to be in the know on who to call upon when needed. Keep writing for us.

Great read. I'm enjoying the storyline and anxious to find out how Anna has fared and where she is. You are keeping us in suspense. Troy sounds like a fine man. I'm now heading for the next chapter.

The search for Anna goes on. A new character appears in this chapter. Everett, the private investigator, is on the case and has taken the lead in the search for Anna. This story is well written and the interest is building. Great dialogue and story.

hiya,
i havent read many chapters of 'lonely hearts meet' but once again have wrote an excellent chapter that is beautifully crafted, i love your dialogue it is very real. my only problem with all dialogues is that it can never represent real life-how we talk over each other interupt each other etc

any way great story
keep it up

Wow, is all I can say. I wish I could make my plot and dialogue flow as smoothly as you do. As I said before this is not my normal reading material but I can help but get caught up in your story. You are a gifted writer.
