I enjoyed reading your story. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for a good story. Ain't a damn thing wrong with a happy ending, we need more of them in life.

Just finished reading your story. I do believe this is one of your best ones yet.

Of course when I saw your name I knew that I am in for an enjoyable read.

Thank you

Because if he was living there, they were bound to meet sometime, maybe in the kitchen, or living room, or . . . . .

"Maureen met a widower living in the same condo and they got married"

I know, I am old fashioned, but, really, they should have gotten married before he started living in the same condo.

A condo can refer to the entire complex of apartments as well as an individual apartment. Sorry you were confused.

I seek out stories with a military romantic flavor.

You never fail to entertain and provide a little (or more) emotion.

You have a gift for excellent story-telling.

Thanks for the stories! I've read then all!

OAs an Iraq combat vet well done thanks

I liked the characters but the plot points came one after the other with no time to process or enjoy the ride. Would have liked to savor this a little more.

Holy shit, I'm from Starke! But Gators are yuck, FSU 4 life >_>

As enjoyable as it was, I wanted much more. Many authors ramble on in many directions in one scene taking excursions to others. This story has the potential to be a great outline for a novel. I think best selling one. At anyrate, GatorRick is quite an entertaining author and among the best of the best. This story gets my 5* rating.

What a well written story. It touched my soul. thank you.

Your stories are generally heartwarming. But there is so little character development. Too much rushed. Sometimes a little elaboration is needed.

thanks

Love ur stories. Let Dexter_S write his own if he's not satisfied with ur character development. I think your characters r full enough, no elaboration needed. You are one of my favorite writers and are responsible for making Romance, right there along with Loving Wives as my preferred categories from which I'm willing to edit stories. Thanks for all ur endeavors.

im old and have lost the loveof my life, but have wonderful loving daughter and her husband, three grandsons and their special mates and a great grandson. so am thankful. but your stories sure make me cry. good work.

In this story you had to know the ending before you wrote the beginning, the result is a well integrated tale.

You would have to be daft not to see this is a CLASSIC STORY Perfect in every way shape or form. 10 stars Love you all! Bye. Greg

Children are meant to be happy and safe. Even if they are adopted. Being raised in a family with 2 half siblings, I can almost relate to these 3 kids. Good job.

You have just became my favorite author. I wish there was a 20 button. Maybe I'm an old softy but the happy endings I love. Keep up the great writing.6F5E

I loved it! May I ask! PLEASE WRITE MORE FANTASTIC STORIES!

THANKS FOR SHARING THIS FANTASTIC STORY WITH US! GREG!

OH 100 % OF READING ENJOYMENT BYE. ★★★★★

Absolutely beautiful story . Had me in tears at different points . You managed to portray a wide variety of emotions and experiences . From total innocence and unbridled love . To absolute Evil and despicable intolerance . You managed to instill all possible emotions into the reader . From absolute disgust and hatred towards the terrorist to sadness through to happiness and joy 😂. Especially towards the two little girls and their very special parents . Please keep writing .

Huh! And old Jake Rivers finally got a real job and had a good woman make an honest man out of him. Priceless. But seriously, this is a great story, definitely a tear- jerker of the highest order. Thank you, GatorRick, for sharing it with us. This is without a doubt a 5 star effort, 10 stars if I could rate it that high.

to be introduced to GatorRick with this story. Only a handful of writers on Literotica who can write a story like this one where the writing is so good I do not notice the writing but my mind is on the story it tells, leaving me with a tear on my face and happiness in my heart.

Every time I read this story my eyes fill with tears. I cannot think of any other story that impacts me so much.

I cried my eyes out

It was my heart that was ripped from my chest

Awesome story!

Wonderful story. It might help to place in your preface that tissues may be required. 5 STARS CC

Heart warming Indeed!

Yes, not only military folks deal with PTSD, and it is no laughing matter as I can personally attest. There is much less understanding and help for civilian sufferers, but if you are lucky, as I was, it can be found. there is life and joy after trauma and this story filled my heart. To find yourself, give yourself away to others! Thank you.

Another wonderful story. I only wish that there were others out there doing what these two did.

What a heart warming story. Well done. 5 stars

Loved it, looking forward to more of your stories.

You made me cry again. BTW I knew what Usafas meant right from the start.

5*5*5*5*

How can You not love this beautiful story. Yes I'm a sap for happiness in stories. I may have commented before but Hey two for one offer. 5🌟👍😁

I can't help reading this over and over again. The scene at the orphanage in Baltimore shows a guiding hand. The one man the girls would trust came to find them.

They were afraid of men because bad men had killed their family. Then came their Usafas and he made them feel safe, then he had to leave.

Then concerned for them, he found them, and they felt safe again. Usafas was the only one able to take away their fear.

Little Sima saying she was not afraid anymore Daddy, meant that with their Usafas, they could let go of their fear and finally enjoy life again.

If I ever need to check my tear ducts, this story will do nicely.

What a heart warming story. Not the typical tear-jerkier, but with a very sweet twist.

Great story.giving hope to children !!! Doesnt get much better than this. Plus the rest of the story was really enjoyable. Time well spent 5 stars

I only want two things from a author when they write their stories, a brilliant storyline AND a happy ending, you gave us both. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
