If you did, why not throw a star or two on it?"
How about 5 Big stars. Beautiful story, with a nice lead up to the wonderful and emotional ending.
I've read your story, 'Last Summer'. That too was a beautifully written.
BlueFox00729 days agoThank you for reminding me of all those pictures I took of my sweat heart 62-40 years ago, and still have framed on the refrigerators at the cabin. We’re older now, but still so much in love. You told our story beautifully. 5 stars. Keep writing.
G590229 days agoO my goodness, I thought that I had favorite stories over the last few years but I was wrong. This is the most romantic story I’ve ever read!!! Thank you so much for sharing this incredible story!!!
A_767829 days agoGreat story. Sometimes you can see where the story is going but it's all about the journey.
RFFAST29 days agoI believe your line,
"Her high heels made her statuesque, like that singular plane of existence she occupied had finally tipped up to float above the world of mere mortals."
Is likely the most romantic line on this entire website.
As a photographer, THANK YOU for capturing the essence of romance through the lens.
Fantastic story.
FromGrnMtn28 days agoA beautiful and perfect story. Perfect in that there wasn't any part of it that I felt it should have been told differently. I was just along for the ride so to speak.
And I find this one of best stories I've read here!
I look forward to reading more of your work.
Anonymous28 days agoGorgeous story! Painted pictures in my mind of the photos he took, and the love that developed between them over the years! One of the best works on this site in my humble opinion. Please continue to grace us with your tales!
Anonymous28 days agoWhat a great story. Somewhere along the way I began to get an idea of how this would turn out, but the moment they both realized they had already met "the one" was very well written.
rangerted28 days agovery well done, remarkable story and beautifully written. thank you for sharing your talent with us readers.
Anonymous28 days agoSweet story. I like the entire notion of a person documenting a life well lived…the good and the bad. Such a good premise to build a story around. There were a couple of unbelievable moments, as you likely know, but you did a wonderful job of showing a friendship growing into a loving relationship. 5
Vitavie28 days agoI like this and other stories by intim8, because this author is subtle, thoughtful and credible, rather than sensationalist and far-fetched, like so many others. I only attempt to do the same in my own stories.
SlithyTove28 days agoA very unique approach, and extremely well done. Yes, it was clear where this was going to go, but it was well worth the journey.
Anonymous27 days agoThis is certainly one of the best conceived and written stories on Lit. 5 stars unreservedly. Only one slight complaint. If her death is supposed to be an almost current event he could not have been recording pictures for all those years on memory cards. He would have started out when roll film was the most available medium for amateur photographers. Not a big deal really but just a mildly distracting anachronism.
Anonymous27 days ago“I knew it wouldn't, and besides, I had a date tonight.”
Unfortunate slip from past tense to present. Should have been “…that night.”
I don’t see her not having had sex with “the one”. Having Jason be her first was a bit too cliched.
Otherwise a nice story. 5*
Anonymous25 days agoWe are so misty and so touched by two finally becoming one forever and ever - to the moon and back ❤️❤️
A beautiful beginning to a warm and beautiful ending - together as it was meant to be.
Thank you!
Goosebumpgiver24 days agoWell now. 5 ⭐️. All the way. I am not much of a Romance category guy but stumbled across this story and just couldn’t put it down. Great job.👏🏻👍🏻
Anonymous22 days agoThere are many outstanding stories on this site. Each for its own reason.
This story, imho, best captures both the name of the site and of the category.
I am simply amazed.
It simply deserves many more 5's so that it gains its rightful place in the Romance Hall of Fame.

Anonymous19 days agoA truly extraordinary story from an author new to me. What a pleasure! Thanks for sharing your talent here. Just a couple of minor errors: “taught tendons” should have been “taut” and “complimented” should probably have been “complemented.” Now, to start reading some other stories from this author. Joy!
Publius6818 days agoSimply fabulous.
The slowest of burns, and in a great way. Your descriptions are sensuous and rich, and accomplish exactly what they are meant to.
I loved this story, despite the way it sometimes frustrated me, because it frustrated me in exactly the way you meant it to.
Anonymous16 days agoJust amazing, although I have mixed feelings about being told that they were separated by death— you know it has to happen but being told, explicitly, is so beautiful and bittersweet.
Anonymous15 days agoThank you. Great emotional impact. I feel the ending appropriate, as you said: bookended.
Anonymous11 days agoWow, that’s some seriously great story, intim8, thanks for sharing it here. I wasn’t really surprised when Jason and Tina fell in love with each other, after all this is the Romance section. But as they say, it’s not necessarily the destination but the journey that’s important. And this was one helluva journey you took us on. Again, thanks again for sharing, it’s a great story. Five stars.
