Exceptional

This work has reached the exceptional level

You are such a tease! Clingy wet blouses in the Bahamas, a brewing romance over two latte macchiatos, and an imminent baby about to arrive early (by the sound of things!) No wonder your book is so good - it has all the ingredients to make it a great read!

Well, you've done it again, my friend. Your poetry is always delightful, and this is no exception. What a wonderful imagination you have, and your rhyme and rhythm is perfect! Sooo looking forward to the next 'chapter.'

Wow! this story just gets better and better. Although I was slightly peeved to be pulled away from Grant's Caribbean paradise, the journey was well worth it. Seeing the sexual tension building between Monica and Jeff was skilfully crafted, and the underlying tension being introduced that there might be another 'baddy' out there trying to get to Tania via Monica, was the icing on the cake.
Another great chapter, my friend, and one that has me anxiously waiting for the next!

I so enjoyed my trip to the Bahamas, and I was by Tania's side all the way as she took in the wonderful gardens and house. Having owned a German Shepherd, I could also visualise the scene when Grant introduced Sam and Ben to Tania (due to your great story telling!) They are fabulous dogs, and you described the way they acted perfectly.

As always, I eagerly await the next chapter!

This is one of the best chapters yet! Beautifully written, you managed to transport me to Tania's flat so I could watch the whole scene unravel in front of me. And now we're going to be treated to a romantic holiday on an island in the Bahamas - fantastic! I can't wait to read on.

I can so identify with this chapter! I had to address things a member of my family claimed had happened in the past that were a figment of his imagination, and send copies of my email to other members of the family to stop him from doing it again. You nailed that perfectly in this beautifully written chapter, and I felt my blood boil in sympathy with Grant.
Here's hoping Colin can't get near Tania again - fingers crossed!

I'm so enjoying this book! The way you jump from internal thoughts to candid conversation, makes the whole story so convincing. I'm sure there are many men like Grant who have not only been deceived by their wife's infidelity, but have suffered ridicule as well, and I can well imagine it would give them a tainted attitude regarding another romantic relationship. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, but I'm sure the same must apply to men!
I'm so looking forward to the next chapter.

Fantastic! You portrayed the scene in Tanya's hospital room so well, with just enough detail to make it all convincing. The internal thoughts of Grant are intriguing, and will, no doubt made the ensuing chapters even more interesting. Well done!

The Witch and the Wizard by sandramitchell

Exceptional

I love it! What a wonderful interpretation of the image. Apart from rhyming beautifully, the idea of a witch and a wizard being involved with the cleansing of the earth is enchanting - and I'm sure would appeal to adults and children alike.

Well done, and good luck in the contest.

What is it about some mothers that they think giving birth to someone gives them the right to declare themselves superior? Grant's 'mother' definitely fits into that scenario. The fact that she chose between a man and her baby all those years ago, sums her up perfectly!

Another super chapter, Sandra, and one that has me anxiously waiting for the next!
