Great story! I agree that even after Covid-19 is resolved, there will be future pandemics. I just hope our leaders will have learned their lessons and be better prepared.

That was a great story except for the new pandemic you dreamed up in our future! Just kidding! I am sure there is one out there waiting.
Good story, well developed, few trivial errors, believable and well paced. Thanks for a good ending too many writers give the ending short shrift leaving to much to the "readers imagination" IMO. Thank you for your effort. Job well done.
Cheers

Believe it or not .... the "Black Death" is still out there!!!

Somehow the flow of this tale was very smooth and it all fit together well. I liked the characters...even the villain was properly villainous and except for a few grammar errors (apparently there's another pandemic going around whose symptoms are an inability to learn how to use pronouns) and one time where Trey's dad called him Trey instead of Bobby it went very well. I have been accused of never giving 5* ratings, but I do and this one was worthy of it. Thanks.
Another winner !! Thats two i've read....out of the six so far..... I like the believability Good job Keep it up...
Money can't buy you happiness, but it does bring you a more pleasant form of misery ;-) (Spike Milligan)
Fun read. Deuce was a real Deuce. I've enjoyed everything of yours that I've read!
Loved the main character, Syn, and the way it was written. Maybe a few mistakes but not enough to upset me. Knew there were going to be money problems but not the way you brought them up and was surprised with Syn's actions on money as it seemed out of character. Didn't stop my enjoyment though. A classic for Valentine's.
5 stars.
“He apologized and begged Trey and I for forgiveness.”
What? Would you ever say “He apologized and begged I for forgiveness”?
I’m surprised Overcritical gave 5* for this. For the first time ever I had to rate a story lower than he did. I mean, with people literally starving from the economic crisis of Covid, I find it hard to gin up any interest in a story of the super rich who are just too proud to ask for money from a relative.
This was really good BH. Your climax was unexpected which is always a plus but that you managed to take a well known theme and deliver it so convincingly is a testament to your talent and growth. The end was so emotive and real. I don't give a shit about golf but you still kept my attention. I really loved this.
Very nice, plus now I know what “skins game” means. Good job explaining it to a non-golfer.
I'm sorry I didn't find your stories earlier, at least in time to have voted for this. I enjoyed all your stories I've read and this is my favorite. Thank you.
You explained my slice perfectly. I'm a little guy that can hit with the big boys, except for my perpetual slice. I'm working on the feet thing, but it ain't easy after all these years...
Loved your story, and am binging on the rest. I especially love your world building, where characters continually cross. I grew up on Sci-Fi future histories, and similar plot devices. I'm going to try to have an element of that in some of the ones I would like to write.
Keep on.
TREY IS SUCH A LOSER....HE AND SYN WERENT A GOOD FIT FROM THE OUTSET...SYN WAS TOO GOOD FOR HIM....SYN WAS SO FOOLISH TO DUMP HER EGGS IN ONE BASKET BY INVESTING IN THEIR FUND....SHE SEEMED LIKE A STRONG CHARACTER UNTIL SHE BECAME INVOLVED WITH TREY
It is interesting that Syn’s father wanted to hide his wealth from US taxes just like Trump! Trump’s father estate of over one billion dollars got presented as one hundred million to the US Government when he died. Trump even boasts about this since the estate tax payable requirement is outside of the legal time limit.
Excellent! Great story flow and character development!
***** stars!

This story is an example of my philosophy on investment. NEVER PUT ALL OF YOUR MONEY IN ONE PLACE. SPREAD IT AROUND TO AT LEAST 5 DIFFERENT INVESTMENT PROCESSES. THAT INCLUDES 20% IN GOLD BULLION.
Syn was supposed to be a strong smart character yet she just gave in to Trey and especially Deuce when it came to investing her money!! Guess greed goes with stupidity for rich bitches
Really gullible of Syn who started of as a strong independent character to be so easily swindled by her in laws.
Simply delightful! You are officially my favorite romance writer. Great characters interesting framing pacing
5 stars
Amazing story.
True love conquers economic megalomania.
What a tough jock wife. Most spouses would have folded and run from disaster. Kudos to marital teamwork. I've never experienced it.
A smart woman like Syn gets taken in by the likes of her stupid husband and his father. Cuck writer weakened her character
