Once again, an excellent read. I was surprised but thankful, you still posted and I can see the good news enabled you to do that. So much great detail and very real in situations we all know. Just one change suggested. (With just)[O](one)look

I made a correction in that area. Thank you for the catch and the kind review.
Comment from Pam Lonsdale
What a sweet scene between these two - sad circumstances, but Cord shows strength, love, and restraint throughout the scene. It was very real feeling.
I enjoyed this chapter, and now I see why readers here talk about how well you write romance. I'm hooked!
Thanks for the update on your father-in-law. Miracles do happen.
Take care,
Pam

Another great chapter, Barbara. I like how Cordero was like a medical doctor on Ali first, and then he played the part of a psychologist/counselor to help Ali understand herself next. It seems their relationship is already pretty well grounded!

Their relationship is grounded, but there's a rocky issue coming. Thank you for the kind review.
Comment from Jay Squires
I think I've said it before. Cord, to me, is the best male character you've created in your novels. He is strong and he's moral without being goody-goody. Ali is sweet and vulnerable in some ways, tough as nails in other ways. I'll point out the only possible nit I found, but I downloaded this at 8:30 AM and and am just now getting to read it at 8:39 PM, so you've probably made the small adjustment and will be wondering why it still shows.
"Sure, Boss. Anything else you?" [You either left out a word or you need three dots or a double dash after "you".]
I see where your father-in-law has been taken off life support. I hope your sister-in-law will have a change of heart and not make your father's wishes a mockery.
Blessings,
Jay

My father-in-law is still hanging on. Yes, I have added the word 'want' in that spot. Thank you for the kind review.

As always, your structural writing and editing are top notch. You do a great job keeping your characters consistent with story and who you've built them up to be. It shows you have a strong grasp of their design and keeping track throughout the novel.
Good work.

Best wishes.

I think Cord was also checking the bruising. Thank you for the kind review.
Comment from judiverse
Wow! I didn't realize Alan had done that much damage. Cord seemed pretty much in control of things, including his temper. Ali's a lawyer. She should take Alan to court and help herself like she's been helping other women. Reading about these things happen where it's a distance to get to town, I'm glad we have an emergency hospital close to us. We also have convenient care, but it closes at 8 pm, I believe. Hope Ali's had her tetanus shot. If not, she'll need one. I'd never heard of wild lettuce tea before. It's certainly worth a try if you're in pain. Great Chapter. judi

You're welcome. It's an eye-opener to realize that even professional women can be victims of abuse, and out of shame they may not report it. judi

I think your story is great, but I sure, dislike the guy who hit Alexandra and really did a number on her. Glad it is a fictional story. So sorry about your father-in-law but evidently God was there to bring him out of a coma.

Comment from John Ciarmello
I knew Alan would get to Ali eventually, but this was unexpected, him coming there to take her back to N.Y. and then beating her up to boot. I can feel Cord's temper building. I think he has had enough of this jackhole, Alan! I loved it! Best, JohnC
