Your build up and story was a delight. I loved how the tale starts with their encounters over 4 years, and then blossoms. The role of Gramsy is priceless. Thank you for this great story of love.
Sweet story well told as are all of your stories very glad to see you back here writing again.
Enjoyed the play between Mira and Davey and Gramsy. The characters were brought to life by the dialog and bantering back and forth. And we, your readers, got to enjoy every moment of your story. Truly outstanding work.
This is an amazing read. Glad you wrote it! Can't wait to see more work from you!
Truly worth the time to read. Looking forward to more great writing
I feel almost as lucky as David having found this story! I said "almost"!
This is the first story I have read of yours but I can assure I will be sampling some of your other postings. I believe it is the least sexual but sexiest story I have read on this site. Extremely well done and appreciated.
I see from your bio this is the first you have submitted in awhile. Sure hope you can conger up a squeal. I feel like I just met David and Madi, really like them and really want to be part of their life experiences going forward. Of course we may have to wait for this cursed virus to clear out since it was a key piece of the plot.
Cheers!

I've read a bunch of pandemic stories, and this is only the second one that I found worth the time to read. It was excellent as a story, and the length of time you took to introduce the players and to build up was excellent.
I enjoyed every page
As another note... at the beginning, you talked about misspelled words... there really weren't that many, but there were a couple of typos that made me smile... My favorite one was when Miranda asked with nervousness spelled "nervousnrdd", which I read as nervous nerd :). Made me smile.
Generally, I'm fairly picky about reading stories with lots of typos, misspelled words, and bad grammar... this wasn't a problem.
You have shared some excellent stories with us and I think this rates as one of the best. Thank you for this heartfelt love story.
Considering I still loved it, clearly it was a 5 and a 5+ with editing...
Thanks for the story...
on this story. It is really good and I can't really say more than that. Congrats on winning the contest, well deserved. And now that you are rich and famous, don't forget the little people who await your next story. I would put LOL but I don't do that.

Not just about a young couple falling in love but finding love in family. A young man finally learning about his grandmas love of her departed husband and family history. Dealing with the pandemic with the family and family away. Five 5*****
How many women know what they want for the rest of their lives at age 14? As improbable as that is its refreshing to read a story about a woman who's not changing her mind or cheating on her marriage every several years. Well, at least we are left with that implication. When Mira's children are grown and gone she will likely be in her 40's, and probably will have not yet lived half of her life. So we might yet read about her in the Loving Wives category if she explores lust versus love, passion versus passivity, excitement and danger versus complacency and settling. Then there's that pesky old Martian Slut Ray. A middle-aged Mira now thickened and heavier from the burdens of childbirth, nursing, and her love of food might be an easy target.
So many hopes and dreams, so many hazards and realities.
It was a nice love story. Thanks for the effort.
Great story. The part where Gramsy told David she loved him hit home to me. My mother and her mother was the same way, they let you know they loved you by their actions for you. They both seldom used the word love.
Long time love beginning at an early age was once more common then it is now.
I put off reading this because of the coronavirus theme being worked into it but I really enjoyed it. I can only suggest that it would be improved with some proof reading before publication to catch the errors.
... oh so drawn out. Not knocking the plot, but there was lots of dialogue but not so much forward movement. But I still enjoyed it, and thought the ending was quite sweet.
But as has been noted, so many typos. Romas for Ramos many times, even Miranda was misspelt, and many other spelling mistakes. A quick spell check would get rid of these, and really there’s no excuse for such errors.
Roger. 5* nonetheless
This was a very enjoyable love story wih just a little sex at the end.
I just read this great story again, and was reminded again that I (and a lot of other Lit readers) really wish that JoeDreamer had lot more time to share his great writing with us. (and, on the second reading, it remains a five-star effort!)
reminds me of the love I have for my wife except this is much better phrased Embodies love trust respect affection Written in the mils and boon/silhoette romance /Harlequin romance/barbara cartland style but only better
Don't read this if all you want is erotic action. But it's for you if you like interesting characters and a gradual build up. A well deserved winner. Thank you, joe_dreamer!
A great story.
I even teared up a couple of times.
I didn't notice the spelling errors or the grammar problems some of the others commented about. I'm sure that I was so much into the story that were insignificant to me as I read.
Thank you for your story.
Romas one sentence, Ramos the next. Maranda or Miranda? There, they’re, or their? So many mispelled words. I love the story, it’s upbeat, fun, great character development. But the errors cloud the enjoyment a bit. There are so many great proofreaders/editors, why not enlist some for your story? Just one star off for the errors - great story!
Great story - I was in tears at points, good characters - I want a to be part of their family! But really, pretty please with a cherry on top, get a proof reader and fix the errors that scar your writing all the way through. P.S. Thank you for writing and submitting. 5*.
Loved the story and the build up. Was a bit dissapointed when the characters' eventual union was practically glazed over right after penetration. Still loved the story enough to not mind the grammar mistakes and rushed sex scene to give it 5 stars.
Outstanding. I enjoyed the story and the quality of the writing.
Solid 5 star effort.
I'd love to read a story of David having his "revenge" on Lorenzo. Maybe when he's returning from college, 8 years in the future, and slowly falls for a girl working with Mira in the beauty parlor...
A nice sweet romance story.
I found the use of Mira and Miranda to be confusing. I thought they were sisters or something.
Turn that up to 11 stars! Probably one of the five best stories on the site (IMHO, of course) 😊
OMG!! I didn’t expect this tale to be so excitingly heart grabbing. Congratulations Mr Dreamer. This was the first of your stories I’ve read, but it will certainly not be the last!
You are going onto my list of authors to return to. Jim
What a wonderful and descriptive coming of age story. The 'best of times and the worst of times...'.
Well written and surprisingly a high-water mark of our recent turbulent history. Painful and yet heart achingly nostalgic.
1,000.00 it deservied more than a 5... Nice , neat ,*little* story.. glad u didnt draw out the virus part as well. Just enough to move the story along. Lots of folks are touchy bout that subject.. anyway thank you 4 this and other storys.. hope u hang ard some. Lots of the older writers are gone now it seems.. any who take care and thk u. 😉🤷🤷😁🎉🎉🥳👋👋🙋👍👍👍💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍
Beautiful story, very well written and something good coming out of disaster. 5*, thank you.
It’s crazy how different areas handled Covid pretty much nothing where I lived shut down businesses wise and schools only offered online courses to people who wanted it.
I don't really know how to put into words how good this story is. Saying I love it doesn't seem enough. This is one of the best I've read in a long time. Thank you so much for writing this and sharing it with us. I look forward to reading again.
Damn. If it were a movie we would call it a chick flick, and I'm no chick but i couldn't put it down. Things didn't get done today because if it. One of the best. I never expected to find the level of storytelling I sometimes find here when I first found literotica. Thanks for sharing it with us.
