It's an enjoyable read, well expressed with good character delineation but I would like to see more pace in the relationship between Seth and Emma. Call me impatient maybe! Also the shaking of the head - what's that about? Your underlying message of faith runs like a thread throughout giving the plot fluency and cohesion. Thanks for sharing. Take care, Debbie

The head shaking is starting to be explained and will continue to be explained. Thank you. I always move relationships slowly. Thank you for the kind review.

Another well written and interesting chapter.
Rich in Theme design and Imagery.
It read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
I enjoyed Thai and thanks for sharing.

Comment from Douglas Goff
Good growth chapter. Sorry I have fell behind.
This part seemed off:
After filling up on fire roasted hot dogs, chips and s'mores, Emma asked, "I'll help you clean up, then I'm calling it a night."
('Asked' but no ? mark. Maybe 'offered'. )
Not sure, just seemed off (trying to pay back some of the bajillion helps you have given me, my friend!)
Nice chapter!

I changed that line. It was first a question then I changed it and forgot to change 'asked'. Thank you for catching it. I always appreciate the help.

A smooth continuation to the previous chapter. I enjoy reading about the lose knit community and how they help each other in times like storms. Both of them are lovers of small towns and it is natural thatthey fell attracted to each other..

Comment from Jim Wile
I think we're getting close to that first kiss now. Both are obviously smitten with each other, and despite her protestations to the contrary, I think Emma likes being taken care of by Seth, and Seth likes taking care of her.
I'm wondering when the trouble will start raising its ugly head again?
Nice chapter, Barbara. Jim

Comment from BethShelby
Emma and Seth are still trying to understand each other but it is apparent there is an attraction between them. The story brings back memories of what it was like to live in a small town. I was anxious to move to a bigger city but small towns have a lot of perks you don't find in the city. Great story.

Hi Barbara,
This just may be one of those stories that build, the ones you have to read on 'cause you know there's something afoot, something building, something good...hmmmm, maybe something not so good as well?
There was a pause with a slight hint of confusion as read and then reread this sentence.
As he headed toward his cruiser, he muttered,"He's afraid of allowing you to. He's guarding himself."
If you meant to stop mid sentence maybe an ellipse?
you to... he guarding himself.
Just stalled me reading that passage.
But I enjoyed the story once again Barbara.
Shame the video was unavailable... I do like me a tad of Alan Jackson some!
Until next time!
With our thoughts we create...
a deeper connection.
Kind regards,
James.

Thank you for the kind review. I'm wondering the video didn't play. Others heard it, so I know it was working. I'll check it out.
Comment from Pam (respa)
A good chapter that has various character trying to make the best of things after the storm that had hit their area. They are a close knit community and take care of one another. Since Emma is renting from Seth, it make sense that he helps with her house, and she, in turn, helps with sprucing her place up with plants. They also spend time together, and with their dinner prepared over the outside fire, it was a good time to reflect on their feelings.
We learn that Emma feels he let her parents down not doing something with her teaching degree, but she likes the small town feel, and Seth seems to feel the same way. I assume they are getting up early to continue working on what has been damaged after the storm?
