Good story although Mike is kind of a wuss. Turned down multiple times then uses a favor type scenario to ask her out again, and when she says no AGAIN he makes her feel guilty about it? Mike is that creepy guy that never takes no for an answer. It worked out here because it's a story, irl not so much
I have to admit I got lost a bit. You gave the impression that they had their first time together during their wedding night. And then Lila is pregnant. So, who dunnit?
Too many holes in the plot to enjoy the story. A recurring theme with this author which indicates an unwillingness to do even perfunctory research. That's plain lazy.
To any who wonder if the author is still out there, he is.
The two comments I had left from prior stories that were not glowing recommendations but instead pointed out flaws in plot were deleted.
Mut be the author's form of justice.
That speaks more to me than anything the author could write.
On page 5 you got Lila and Dawn mixed up. Writing is really good, story kind of mediocre with lots of holes. But thanks for the effort.
Stories a 5 but the hero is a dufus from the word go. That he would pick his woman with the requirement that they be snow white while he is used goods strikes me as just a tad two-faced. I reckon his dad is a far better man than he!
Excellent story in a story. Great creativity. I love reading the negative comments too. What a bunch of neanderthals.

Love the story within a story. Well worth 5 stars. Yes Tom was being an idiot. Glad he grew up and was able to make the right decision. As always with this author well written and entertaining. BardnotBard
I was as intrigued as the Anon who posed this query:
"I have to admit I got lost a bit. You gave the impression that they had their first time together during their wedding night. And then Lila is pregnant. So, who dunnit?"
So I went researching into the story. Found this nugget of info:
"From the second date, we moved to our third and then our fourth and so on until we were basically shacking up together at my place. I finally convinced her to drop her lease and move in with me as a money saving proposition. We instantly adapted into our newly found status as roommates, best friends, and lovers.
I took her home to meet my parents during Christmas and they fell in love with her..."
Makes sense, if any?
Great story. It clearly states the MC and Lila were lovers after she moved in with him. Thought the story within a story was top notch. Nice twist with the names of Mary and Dawn for Kate and Mary. MC was overly melodramatic regarding Lila and Fitzgeralds. It it in the past. He has no proof that she did anything beyond dancing and stripping. Get a grip. So what if she went out with a couple of the rich patrons. He had girlfriends before Lila. Move on in love. Lila clearly adores him. Of course not entirely sure why give how he reacted the night of their wedding. Yikes. As always 5 blazing stars with this author.
I can appreciate his despair, I think he was somewhat immature in how he reacted. So he was forced to grow up and look at things honestly. The confusion about Fitzgeralds is understandable. In this instance, the ignorance was definitely to his benefit. Hers too, if I’m honest. - This is a wonderful story of redemption, and true love. A very easy 5/5
All I can say is the can write a great story. I have read a few of his/ her works and they well worth my time. They all managed to draw a tear to my eye. At least 5 stars
This is Story telling at its best..5stars.. this is the 4th story you have penned that I have read. Anxious to check out your other ones...JZK
I've read all but one of osha's works, enjoyed most, this is the best. Just my opinion, of course.
The mom and dad's story was great, could have been the whole story.
Mike was far too immature to have been allowed to get married.
👍👍👍💯💯💯😉😁🤷🍕🍕🍺🍺🙋🙋🤷🤷justvcurious why u stoped posting here . Good storys. Hope yall r alright,. Any way thks.. and happy " retirment 🤷🤷🍺🍺🍕🍕🙋🙋🙋👍
A fantastic story. Life can be messy and complicated. We all have to grow up and see things through different lenses. As demonstrated in this story communication is vital. Misunderstandings are going to happen. Maturity comes by seeking council from those you trust and then making an informed decision. Mike got his world rocked, and i would dare say that it would take most people a little while to wrap their head around something like that. Kudos to the author for having her quit after their date. That showed her desire for better things. I would like to think that Mike would have got there even without dads intervention as it took place B4 :) they proceeded into their relationship. Love is not always easy but is always necessary. .
As soon as oshaw indicated that "Randi" touched this story, I knew her agenda would stain the undertones of the original arc. Oshaw, before you associated with that "crowd" your stories were uniquely flavored. They may not have been always and completely liked, but at least they stood on their own. This story is lost some of that as soon as I began seeing parts of her "work" on here. Tsk tsk.
There were many errors in it as well, so I'm not exactly sure what she meant to edit.
