Suspense, thrills, chills, and of course, romance. You might also ask your friends here to write a blurb for amazon, Goodreads, and any other site your books are on. Have a good week. Karen

I have asked people to rewrite reviews on Amazon, but mostly don't. Thank you.
Comment from Rosemary Everson1
Alexandra must really have the curves. And Luke seems like a guy you might want to stay away from, perhaps he likes trouble. I will continue to read the next chapter, catching up on the reading.

Luke you discover later on is a horrible man. Thank you for the kind review.

He sounds bad already.
Comment from Sanku
This was an interesting post and it throws light on the life of Texan ranchers. I was appalled when Luke pulled out the gun. Trigger happy lot and it is scary! I can understand why Ali wanted to go back.

Comment from amahra
Wow, ten thousand dollars for a horse. This was my first horse auction, thanks. Lol! I like this chapter...some funny moments and intense ones. Loved it when the guys were about to go at it. You did great with that action. I could be wrong, but I think it's [bloodline] and not [bloodlines] for the horse.

I think you're right. I've fixed it. Thank you for the catch.

I've been far behind on my reading but I am happy I didn't miss this one. I am enjoying the exchange between the characters and also the western atmosphere. Wonderful as always, Barbara.

Thank you. You remain in my prayers
-
Thanks so much... I can't get any answers from anyone and I am turning into a nervous wreck.
-
Have you had a mmr or any tests?
-
They refused to do the scheduled mm till I saw a dr again - Why? And I have had ct, pulmonary, labs and another test on my lungs and can't find out the results except what I found in my personal chart on line which is a limited info. I have called numerous times and she is either out, busy or the results are back yet... It's been over two weeks or more. Now I am scheduled for a bunch of drs in April and May... Hopefully!!
-
April and May may be too late. It only takes a couple of days to get lab results. You may have to go through patient relations to get help. If it's cancer, not always, but often your white blood cells are messed up. Can you see those results in your personal chart?
-
I'll look later and see exactly what I can find. Thanks for asking.
-
Dealing with a military doctor, once, I had to go to patient relations to get my results. After speaking with them, the doctor called me immediately.
Comment from RGstar
I am going to give this a six star, but some little question marks over the behaviour of the stranger who grabbed Alexandra's arm and told her to 'come over there' ...as if she was nothing, and he felt he could and she would respond....going on to imply, she would appreciate his companionship. All seems a little strange having just seen her once, seemingly knowing she was there with another party... in Cordero, even if formally boyfriend- girlfriend. Normally a person wouldn't act this way, even if bold.
Then as a result: ''She ran to him and threw her arms around him. "You're alive."
Again looks a bit rushed. If she walked away crying and Cordero found her, wouldn't it have been a better meeting if when he heard her crying, simply walking u to her and place a hand on her shoulder, asking if ok?
Apart from that, Really good writing.
Nicely balanced and the story seems to be taking good shape.
Well done.
Best wishes.

I will recheck this part. It will come out later how much of a real jerk Luke is. We will see him again. Thank you for the kind review.

Here's your six for the week. Great job as always. It was full of tension, action, and certainly held my interest. I'm looking forward to the next one. Have a great week. Shirley

Comment from Ric Myworld
Thanks for sharing another fine chapter and for a glimpse of what's to come in the future. Yes, we all have to learn the lesson about keeping Fanstorians attention. I've always kept my posts between 1200 and 1500 words when possible, because every time I got past 1800 to 2000 words, my readers cut in half or less. I don't think it's their short attention spans. They just have so many to read and so little time to get everyone read. I've often thought about cutting my readership back, but I don't have the heart. Great chapter!

Thank you for the kind review. I entered the first chapter contest and it had a minimum of 2000 words, maximum 5000 so I thought I would try my luck. Mistake. I had a high number of reviews but some protested. LOL

Seems like there are always a few protestors against anything that doesn't work to their advantage. :-)
Comment from Jay Squires
"You look fine." He swallowed and inhaled her perfume. She's hot! He opened the door. [I forgot (or didn't notice before) that you are getting inside Cordero's mind. I thought it was only Alexandra's.]
"It wouldn't hurt to put some ice on that." He turned. "I'll get some." [She wasn't hurt by Luke's grip, was she? I'll look back, but I don't recall your mentioning that he hurt her. I checked back and saw that she fell to the ground. You might want to have her grab her arm or some such action.]
Once again, a fine chapter. The relationship is beginning to grow stronger between Cordero and Alexandra.

I double checked the first one. I am in Cord's POV and I added she grabbed her arm. I was looking for Cord just wanting an excuse to get away, but I guess it didn't work. LOL

Barbara, I really enjoyed this chapter. The dialogue flows seamlessly throughout it all and it is incredibly well written. Thank you for sharing. Many blessings to you.
