This was a great story. Thank you for sharing it. It was perfectly themed for. Not just for this time of year but for all of the time.
I enjoyed reading your story. It is easily worth 5 stars. Thank you for sharing.
If this quality is maintained with some variety your popularity with the quality readers will know no bounds!!

Brilliantly written, I would agree one of the best, NO the best written on this site.
Many congrats! Superb storyline that held my attention throughout.
I've never been keen on the romance section of literotica, but I'll now have to rethink my prejudice.
Thank you for this story, which I see is your first, here. Please post more stories in due course.
I don't give 5 star ratings very often.
This story deserves 10 stars...
On p. 4 "Ruth was in a strapless Empire Line Geek Style creation in cornflower blue,"I think is almost better than Greek. David
Thank you for a lovely, simple, but by no means ordinary, and sweet tale of redemption, love renewed, and generous hearts. Hope to see more stories by you.
That's a wonderful start. Don't stop now. I'd love to find a new story of yours every month! You obviously have a talent for this. Where else can you find an author whose first story is wearing a 5.00 score?

5 stars aren't enough. You my friend have hit the ground running. Please continue writing.
even the bit at the end where in the consummated their love for each other. her fears, his tenderness, their compassion. it speaks well of the potential for all four of them.
next?
I Wish I could think of something catchy to say but I can't. It's already been stated far better than I ever could. I don't know where you found this story but go back and find some more, NOW!!! Thanks to you for a fine read and to those before me for your all your kind words!
Incredibly well written, and what a story line. Not a dry eye in the house.
Perhaps if the first husband had abused her instead of her abusing herself she would have had a harder time accepting him. But Emma's stepfather in this case was worse and I am sure that if she had not been conscious she would have fled him.
Great story and I am looking forward to more.
a most remarkable & wonderful tale .
very well written , engaging & interesting .
xxxhugsxxx
especially nice that it was from a British Author ,
you managed to avoid very Adroitly using words & terms that might have confused our American / Canadian / Austrailian cousins
seasons greetings & godbless.
A British counterpart to the American Callicious. Different story category, but similar in a number of respects. That is a definite plus! 5 stars gladly.
Exceptionally well-written. Inspirational. A tear-jerker with the hoped-for ending. Favorite Story. Favorite Author.
Well plotted, good characters, and just enough tension to keep one's attention.
Thanks.
Loved the idea, but it was long winded and I gave up, what I did read was repetitive.
I loved the story. It was well written, even if there were a few typos, the story line was interesting and well laid out.
Please continue writing and submitting stories, as long as they of this same quality.
Thanks for sharing your story with us.
A very good example of the romance genre, yes the theme has been done before and we know the ending.However this is well written, the characters are interesting so we care, and want to know, how it all works out. 5 stars.
I really hope you will continue to write very nice and enjoyable stories.
Thank you! I enjoyed your story immensely, but it seemed as though you skipped ahead quite a bit. Personally, I would have loved it if you had filled out the gaps and made this story four times as long.
A very nice tale with interesting characters. Don't make us wait too long for your next story.
A very beautiful believable story. You are very gifted so please give us mere mortals (readers) more.
Thanks for the story. I enjoyed reading it, cried when I read about Ruth's past, and appreciated the happy ending. (Pun intended; I am a nerd.)
The moments from Emma's and Ruth's past lives brought tears to my eyes. The future life offered all of them made me glow inside. You seem to have captured some very emotional details perfectly. The events must have been from your own experiences or you did some very good research. Either way I hope you continue writing such good stories. You have great talent.
The author, with humanist grace and a skillful writing, clearly displays the difference between self-righteous braggadocio and Christian social action. These characters, as vividly imagineered by this writer, are people I would want to know.
I wonder if this author will ever post another fine story. I certainly hope so.
Everyone deserves second chances. This vast world needs more compassionate people like your characters. Things happen and cause so much heartache between even the best of lovers and they never find true love again. Your story has blessed many, as well as, myself. Beginnings of forever love always. 😊
Wow, what a story. Made me cry, made me smile, made me very impressed with this author.
Not often one can read a story on this site and it actually be a story, this is that exception.
Wonderful story. A shame this is his only submission, a talent like this should exercised more often.
5*, only because I can't give more
Romance and nice eroticism, this is quite good.
The only thing missing is the author, for 7 years, now...
(2/21/2022) Nicely done, This was an enjoyable read. A warm story for a cold night. Five stars.

What a warm and loving story how these 4 individuals not only found a second chance in life but also a new and loving family. The storyline flowed well and was well written. Well done: 5 stars
A wonderful story brilliantly written despite a few mistakes like she got married on her 22nd Birthday and then you had written not only was it her 30th Birthday but her 9th anniversary of her wedding to her first husband but that was nothing compared to everything else that was so well thought out in this wonderful story Thank you for all your wonderful efforts All the very Best Paul (Hayboys)
Since I read this Story more than a month ago . I have read many more in the same vein , ( around 25 or more ) , all about homeless women being taken in by men most just out of kindness or some kindness but slightly self serving , ie after a sexual relationship as well if not only a sexual relationship, but most with only the intention of helping someone down on there luck and where love blossoms as well in the process , and one where sex never occurred but a lasting relationship was formed between them both and the young lady found a loving relationship with another man, with the help and insistence of the caring man who helped her get back on her feet , and one where their sexual relationship helped them both heal enough to both move onto a loving caring sexual relationship , both with another but this is in my opinion the very best in this genre . This is a very well thought out loving , caring story in this genre ; I have had the pleasure of reading on this or any other erotic site. One or two ran a fairly close second but not a photo finish even ( so this was a clear winner and out ran most of the stories by a mile ) . So if you like a lot a sentiment with your erotica , especially if there is more sentiment than raunch ) I highly recommend that this is very deserving of a read. So Please do give it ago/ a good read , and I hope you like it as much as I did both times of reading ; as I though it was 100% deserving of a Five Star marking ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Not a bad story, could be a lot better, if the author would just forget about using exclamation points.
