You have given us another top quality romantic story with more than a little heartache Jack. So impressive and beautifully written, I really love stories that have such a sad but happy ending. Further comment, on my part, would be superfluous! Pete.
Very good. I loved it, I could feel the emotions and the romance. Thanks for the story and your time.
and perfect pace. About as good as it gets.
Kudos!
Regards, Jack
I haven't read many of your stories. I plan to change that. if the rest of your stories this great. I can't wait! thank you for a great read. jrj
This story is the best that I've read on this site and others. Keep up the good work. If you keep writing, I'll keep reading and enjoying your work.
Pretty racy writing for a bible thumper, hope you don't have to go to hell or anything. Lacked plot (ya know boy gets girl, boy looses girl, boy gets girl back again) but good sex and dramatic touch with ex-wife being dead, rather than a cheating slut who ran off with a large dicked, black, satanic, drug dealer.
Really enjoyed this story. You are up there among the best in Literotica as a writer concerned with character, story line, and not just with obscenity.
A couple of minor points: Watch the occasional mis-use of "like" -- although I suppose in fiction one should not care too much about proper usage; and perhaps the word "funk" is not what should have been used to describe Kristi's mood at one point.
Here we have a great tale of overcoming tragedy and moving on with living, for both of the main characters. Damn Jack, you write a wonderful story.
Higher than a 5 and growing. <P>
Thanks for your time, imagination and talent Author.<P>
You are looked forward to !<P>
With Very High Regard
An enjoyable read from one of my favorite authors. What could be better? Thanks, jack.
This was the best of your stories to me. I like your writing but this was just great. It touched me as a good romance but it means more to me as I have gone through all the emotions on a personal basis. You have a wonderful way of bring the story into my minds eye by transporting me to the events. As I said before I have lived these feelings and know the sadness along with the fear of starting over again. It is funny how a man can be scared of sex with someone new after so long a time with just one person, as it is like being 20 again and trying to date is really tough to get into the GAME again. It is a great and scary feeling when you realize your equipment still works and that first woman stirs those feelings you wondered if it would ever want to work again. Hey, tenting your pants the first time after so long brings a smile to you. You know life will go on for maybe the first time.<P> Enough of my dribble, just thank you for the wonderful fantasy and great effort.<P>PT
With all tha mediocre stuff I've seen here recently it's really refreshing to see a work from a really talented author. No incest, kinky bondage, or guys getting off watching their wives with somebody else. I had almost given up on this site. Believe me, you are a treat for sore eyes.
Thank you for a very good, "make-you-feel-good" story. Please keep up the good work.

I was a bit worried with the artistic community at a New Year's Eve Party. We could have discovered that Goldie had a weak point, but no she knows what she wants. Thanks for a nice piece of work.
nice,well-paced story of love lost and love found. only slight quibble was how a sports editor finds vacation time to go hunting in november, right in the middle of football season. still, a 5-star story all the way.
there is life after losing a devoted loved one and he found her quite unexpectedly....and they found each other...loved it
2/6/12 Anon- Just so you if he is a writer that covers high school football and the teams in his coverage area don't make the playoffs(or don't advance very far) the season for high school football can be over by mid November.
I thought that was what this site was? Shouldn't all your stories be in a similar vein as this one? I just don't like to read about cheating skanks unless they're being savagely kicked to the curb. This seem s to be about people who truly love one another. In so many of the stories on this site you have the whore spouting that shit about loving only the husband and completely overlooking the fact that you don't disrespect, emasculate, lie and set up for ridicule someone you love. It has no ring of truth. In this story you see the growth of mutual admiration an the building of a committed relationship.
Well done.
There haven't been any comments on this story in quite literally 12 years. This is the second of this author's stories that have put tears in my eyes in the last hour or so. Not even a mention of another losing Lions season necessary. Signed: BTW
My first time through this tale, I found it very moving and wonder how I would have handled losing my other half as he did. Thank you Jack, 5 stars.

Fantastic!! Jack_Straw has come a long, long way as a writer since Bonnie's Obsession...
Great, well written story! So many times I’ve read stories like this and at the end the writer comes up with some off the wall ending just trying to be different. Thank you! LM
So what happened to slut Kristi's boyfriend the politician??!!
