Great coming of age story. Maybe Kid Rock can make a song out of it? LOL! Given you seem to stay busy with life, need to move the story along a bit before you burn out on it. We need to jump to Colorado quickly to keep this moving. How will she handle deployments? What happens at the 2 year mark and he gets assigned overseas? Lots of possible points of divergence! 5*
I think leaving the ending open to a sequel or continuation for the near future is a great idea
Well, at least you didn't misspell George Strait this time around...but then again you didn't mention him either! 4/5
@ScottishTexan I've been laughing reading your comments. I didn't even realize those mistakes. I guess the spellcheck and autocorrect (I write in the notes app of my phone) must have just changed it and I didn't catch it as it reads right since it's the real word. I have no formal writing training, so I am trying to do better with every story I write.
Love this story. Editing is getting better, too. Thanks for the Leonard Wood shout-out; I was stationed here 3 times and ended up retiring here. Your characters remind me of folks I've known both in the Army as well as my small hometown in Texas. I love that vibe. Keep it rolling, can't wait for the next chapter. 5/5
