A few additional chapters would be appropriate as their lives go forward.
Loved this chapter as much as the others, only one word bothered me. "END" is not what I was looking for or expected. It seems to me there are several chapters possible yet. Please?
As I read the last? chapter, it dawned on me why I like your writing and this one in particular. You write about fairly normal people, who do normal things and have events happen in their lives that happen to other people we know and maybe even ourselves. You throw in a few twists and turns to add a little suspense, but nothing way out of left field. Your characters pretty much react normally to what happens. It is refreshing and enjoyable to read and not have to wade through paragraphs of purple prose about endless sex acts that come close to being impossible.
Keep up the good work.
I really enjoyed your story of good, common people. Thank you.
Loved Replacement Therapy. Just another of your great stories. Please keep them coming.
Thanks
It is hard to find something that isn't reasonable in your stories. I think that the wildest was the wife who decided to her afternoons stripping! All very enjoyable.
Thanks Coaster, for this very nicely story, well written, with believable characters.
i have read all of your stories and they just keep getting better and better
You do an excellent job of describing your characters. You also manage to have interesting plot twists. I was worried to the end that perhaps the death of Yolanda's dead husband's buddy and attacker was staged and that he'd show up again in a menacing manner.
I see that others agree, so we all thank you for your work.
It was especially fun to be reading it from here in Redding.
This is my second read of this wonderful heart-warming story. Thanks!
<p>Thanks for a great story.

Man this guy had a load of shit dropped on him that just seemed to keep on dropping. But he shook it off and moved forward with his life, Yep this time the bug won. Very well written, I know I gave it a lot of 5s.
great people. I do believe Yolanda was being selfish in depriving her children in order to "prove" she could make it on her own. She put her own needs ahead of those of the kids.
I'm glad it all worked out ok, but he should have told Meg that if she didn't here from him in 15 minutes (or however long it takes to get to Yolanda's house) to call the police.
giday coaster2
gee guy or girl, you've got a way with expressing yourself.
im envious, really.
you successfully tapp into what ever sources you have, eg personal experience, perceptions of what happens around you, to throw a couple in there.
essentially you hit the mark.
im not great with words and understand myself even less but your words, phrases etc hit the mark.
cheers very much.
must read onto the next story,
cheers
