Excellent! Thanks for saving the nurse! Did they hide her because they figured she possibly was the target, vs Cassidy? Now save Faith!


Miguel has been very cooperative ... if he continues to [do so=>sugg: cooperate].

the need to know people=>NEED-TO-KNOW people

"Well, that was probably smart. [SUGG rework the next sentence--it reads as if Cassidy is referring to the nurse--I puzzled over it for a while]

[And now Cassidy says=>sugg: As for Cassidy,] she's well enough to visit her mother and decide how much she can tell her about Jon."

Thanks for the suggestions and for all your support. I appreciate your time and comments.

Every time you mention Gulf Shores, I think back to when the whole area was nothing more than a backwards community of country bumpkins. Although, I liked it better in the old days. Thanks for sharing. I'm hoping something happens to bring back your beautiful smile soon!

Oh, I thank you for being so sweet. It doesn't look good at the moment but I'll keep praying for a miracle... I know they do happen.

Thanks for reading and enjoying. Hugs to you my friend, Carol

This is another excellent chapter, Carol. Just when we think it's wrapping up, some other little thing needs attention. Well done.

A couple of little spags: "have the interrogations began(begun)"
"You would not try to leave me behind, were(would) you?"

There are one or two chapters left and then it will be finished. Just tying everything together and leaving the door open for another book.

Hugs, Carol

What a nice surprise! I thought the book ended when they got Annie back. I'm happy to see that it isn't over yet and continue to read with interest. Hope all is well with you.

Thanks, Patti!
Have a couple of loose ends to tie up, especially Liz meeting her twin sister... and there is a locker with surprises. So maybe two or three chapters to go.

Hugs, Carol

Are Allie and Garth going to get together? You've left us wondering. I'm interested in these lockers. I doubt it's nothing. I really like this story. Most of the questions have been answered. I hate to see it ending.

Me too! It's a good thing I have felt so invested in the story and my characters or I doubt I would be writing. Last night and this morning are the first times I've had alone and emerging myself in my characters' lives saved me from dealing with mine.

I am writing the chapter of Liz meeting Faith now and then I believe the last chapter (or maybe two) will be the lockers and a few other surprises. If I can keep my mind focused.

Thank you again for enjoying my story. It's proved a blessing to me and I am thrilled it meant a lot to others (especially writers who always intrigue me as well).

Hugs, Carol

This is another great chapter. I don't know how you are doing it if your have personal things on your mind. Garth seems to be a bit annoyed at Allie because he wasn't told she planned to visit her sister. I guess this is where they locate all that cash at the cabin. I surprised Miguel hadn't told anyone about that.

Exceptional

Hmm, Garth can be such a nitwit sometimes. What is his problem with Allie going to see her sister? They only began their 'relationship' yesterday, so was she supposed to tell him then and there all her plans? Men can be so pig-headed at times. I'm so glad that Liz is going to see Faith, I wonder what name she'll use, Liz or Hope? Another excellent chapter, my dear friend. You are doing so well still writing this with all that is going on in your life. Sending love and hugs, my dear. :) Sandra xxx

Thank you from the bottom of my heart as always, my sweet friend.

Yeah, I love how men think the deal is sealed with the first kiss (because flirting doesn't count). He's in for a wild ride with Allie I am sure.

Make sure you post your final chapter on a Saturday or Sunday. If it's Saturday, I'll read it and review the next day. This has been an amazing story, Carol, you should be very proud of yourself. The next job is to publish it. How many words do you think you'll have by the end? Keep your strength and your faith up, and keep that smile! xxx

reply by the author on 26-Sep-2021

I'm almost done with the next chapter... Liz and Faith. I'm not sure how in-depth I should make their conversation... I have a very emotional first moments... but I wonder if I shouldn't go into details..just know that they had a few laughs and lots to talk about. What do you think?

reply by Sandra Stoner-Mitchell on 26-Sep-2021

I think that once they see each other, their minds will connect and they will immediately be drawn together. Yes is should be emotional, they've both been through a lot, and yes, they should laugh and tell stories, It's a happy time for both, and there isn't much time for that sort of thing, left for them. xx
