Being married to such a lady as Kate, I am still looking for my out and my Sarah.. Thanks for the story of Hope..
This was a good story, but could use some work. An editor would help in some places. Dialogue, for example. I think it's the hardest thing to write, and an editor would be very helpful. Some of it is choppy, some is clunky, and in the exchange between Geoff and Thomas, there are big paragraphs but no indication of who is talking, or what they're thinking/feeling. That would give the story some depth, I think. And Geoff seems kind of weak, even by his own admission. I'd like to see something where he stands up for himself. He could tell of Kate, for example. Or simply take some time to think; he seems easily led.
I am only sorry that there was not more of it. Thank you for a really fine tale.
But I should that the father would worry about the submissiveness of this man. After all he is leaving the company to------ Oh I see, the daughter, Sarah.
What a wuss. Why do I seem to read about British men being constantly portrayed as weak characters. This must be part of the emasculation of men in today's atmosphere.
glad his soon to be ex wife gets nothing at all for being such a whore and he and his new wife will get every thing....just proves the old adage....CHEATS NEVER PROSPER
There should be an awesome confrontation when Kate finds out she has been disinherited and that Sarah is her sister who will get everything. What will young Tom think about all of this?
The whole face finger nonsense was ridiculous. All I could imagine was someone pretending their fingers were spiders running up and down someone's face.
What's funny is the author absolutely believes that imagery is somehow erotic....
This is one of those times when showing but not telling is an epic fail. Can you imagine? You get a gorgeous person in your bed and they treat your face like a typing lesson. Lol.
