I love that she climbs the ladder up to the gutter to talk to him and tells the foreman to go pound sand. This is getting more interesting!

@Barbara Angermeier Malcolm Sometimes we need to make an uncomfortable and risky climb to get a relationship back on track…

I love this so much! I'm so proud of Will for setting a firm boundary! From personal experience, a healthy love includes trust. Minimum.

Jealousy is not love. It's ownership.

Excellent read as always. Somehow this one snuck by me and I'm only seeing it now. I'll have less time to wait for the next installment now!

You’ve really hit your stride, can’t wait for the next installment! By coincidence, I watched Rear Window last week. I love the way you wove it in!

@John Klassen Thank you! Glad that you had a chance to watch “Rear Window” in concert with reading my story by the same name…

Because I moved out of my house of forty-eight years, I was too busy to look at SubStack. My reward? To have two new chapters to read one right after the other. I’m still loving the awkward romance.

@Stephanie Foster Moving out of such a long-time home must have been very challenging, and I hope all is well with you. I am glad that you are enjoying the series!
