Hi Chester thank you. The cast are slowly assembling with intrigue rising. It feels tense with a recently widowed beauty and her selected bull at odds - what next?

Awww, poor Jeremy. I wonder how long, once comfortable, Jess will be able to resist the man that looks so much like her husband. We shall see….

Hi Maria, thank you. Jess suffers from a love lost that has torn her heart asunder. I think a miracle is required to mend her. Perhaps she will be broken forever while those around her move on. Who knows? I am in new territory myself.

I do hope this is going to turn into one of your books Kate. I’m an old romantic at heart and I do believe this story will appeal to those who like a lot of romance in their tales. I’ve commented on the slow build before, and here it is perfect. You have us feeling empathy with Jeremy, longing for that connection we all hope that Jess will make with him. In the meantime, all the developments are delightful, and so you. Another great episode.

Hi John, thank you. I wanted to stretch my boundaries and create a series with short, impactful chapters that could be read on the go (over breakfast, a commute, etc) while being suitable for a novel at some point. I hope to offer an interesting plot, lots of romance, and, of course, steam where it is appropriate. I am thrilled you are enjoying this story.

I would hate my husband for preparing such a scenario behind my back. I would have preferred him sharing with me all these preparations, spending all his time together than me waiting for him at home while he travelled alone.

Apart from that personal feeling, the story is great. Did her Charles slept with the Agneas, and perhaps Jeremy?

Hi Jean-Francois, thank you. I am inclined to agree, but I can’t say more, or I would reveal too much. Thank you for your lovely comment, and I am thrilled you are enjoying the story

Catching feelings? How will it play out? Slow burn? Fun times Kate. Thank you. I look forward to the growth in their three relations.

Hi Bill, thank you. The die is cast in the spiritual homeland of Ngai but where will the end take us - perhaps the end is a beginning.

The first sign of compassion regarding the stud muffin had selected by her now dearly departed husband. Poor guy, two years hard work and study value, evaporated. Maybe Agneas will help out with a hand job just to take the pressure off. As if the Jeremy situation want enough, toss in Agnes and of course she is beside herself, just like real person would be. If she were less of a stable person she could end up sniveling on a corner damn near in shock. Ya think, OMG! What a story Kate, amazing and just enough daily to keep the appointment when it is released. So very well done, and I say this with true admiration, AGAIN!

I agree with her. If she's going to go with a new man, I can understand why she would want a NEW man, not a copy of the old one.

Hi Jeff thank you. It’s a winding path and I am using all I learned from my readers to set up a game with all to play for. Erotic sensual love is a stones throw away
