Anon- Timelines get compressed, people are much more, or less perfect. The important thing is the message, this is a little corney, but still a great story. This authors theme is always consistent, I appreciate his efforts.
Thanks to GatorRick

A heart warming story for the true romantics among us. A bit off topic: Tower, just off Newberry, actually SW 75th Street? As a Brit Abroad I lived there and hope to return permanently next year. It's always good to read a story where you can relate to the location. Suspend your belief and you could be watching a good movie!
first let me start by saying Christmas Cookies is my all time favorite story. and your other stories are great and part one and two made for great reading. what I do not understand is the need for this chapter yes it was good writing and everything but to me it added nothing and answered no unanswered questions from the first two parts. please keep writing for many times I look for you to see if there is something new.

you my friend officially did it. you made this grown man cry,well done, excellent writing.
wow, just, wow.
Very emotional.
I love your feel good stories.
Please keep writing.
Rick, I really appreciate your stories in Romance. Thank you. I hope this one inspires other authors to write stories that fit the category. I am getting really frustrated with some other authors publishing to Romance category, stories with themes, without remorse, of cheating, swinging and worse. Thank you for keeping true to the category.
Please keep up the great writing.
Looking forward to your next great story!
I stopped reading after mommy casually told her children about bad men who broke into a school and shot everyone who resisted. I hope to god you don't have children cause that is not an ok thing to do.
WOW! This is a Wonderful story loved the story! The ending was a little bit out there? Though all in all it is better than reading Mills and Boone! HA HA, LOVE YOUR STORIES RICK! Love you all! Bye. Greg. Oh 10 stars = 100 %. Bye.
Sure, just copy and paste the whole first page and change all the first person words to "your daddy". The beginning of all the Promise stories are very weak. Also, I agree with the comment about the Emily telling her kids about "Allahu Ackbar" being totally innapropriate for seven year olds. I get it, this is fiction, but that's never going to be believable.
Sorry, but the criticisms just keep rolling in. There was very little suspense in your military action romance story, and what little was present was resolved within a couple paragraphs. You can't just say "he miraculously survived the EMT shock" then jump to "two months later he was at 100%". Such a wasted opportunity. No character development except for a minimmal change in Emily after a lame "I realized I was selfish".
At least one good thing came out of this story: strong syntax.
Only 3* for me.
I only wish you had it numbered pt.1, pt 2, pt 3. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thanks for sharing this Fantastic story with us! It's Perfect!
You have to admit that it's better than the love yarns my wife reads!
Love you all! GREG OH That's""ME"" SEE YA!

If the new life details were added to the end of Ch. 02 as a prologue it wouldn't have been so repetitive.
A very good romance story, sweet and sentimental. There was no need for sexual scenes to describe a beautiful romance.
Very good work.
5 * for you.
I apologize for my English (yet and forever), isn't my native language.
This one had me in tears. I hope you write more, I've enjoyed all of your stories.
This story and the previous one are outstanding. Thank you. I would really like you to expand more about the time he was hit with the EMP and the kids going to college.
Take care.
All I can say is that this story was warm and loving with a sad but happily ever after ending. The series gets 5 stars from me.
There must be something wrong in this room, my eyes are watering.
I’m speechless. Such a beautiful story. This old retired Sailor is unashamedly weeping. Thanks to the author.
I, too, stopped reading after the main character told her very young children about their mother being kidnapped & punched by terrorists. Then she continued by telling them how their father was shot. That was inappropriate and could cause the children psychological trauma. It ruined an otherwise good story.
Again, I enjoyed the series. Was a very heart warming love story. But, alas, i have the same critique. It is a series... 3 parts... we were told to read them in order. As a result i feel that the whole recap of the first story was totally unnecessary. I have never written a story. But it felt like the author put it in to make the stort longer. Totally not needed.
5 + 5 + 5 for the trilogy! Tearful ending. Thank you for a wonderful tale.
good, Hallmark movie worthy. BUT, when Emily wrote a letter and left the hospital only to be escorted back due to Rick's recovery you never said what was in the letter.
