First off I would like to say that I thoroughly enjoyed your story it was a great romance, wonderfully paced, and well written. Definite 5 stars from me, the one issue I have is that when Laura was telling Chris why she had reserves when it came to men, she said that when the father of Emily put Laura in the hospital, she said that her dad and two brothers were ready to kill him. Then at the end of the story when Laura's family visited them at their home, you said that Laura's siblings were her sisters. That is realistically the only piece of criticism that I have with your story, now if I have misunderstood that statement I am immensely sorry for the unjust criticism I gave you. I understand you have edited this story yourself and lord knows how many errors I've made in my life. I just thought that this would be something that you might like feedback on, however, you have written a wonderful story and I am have enjoyed greatly many of your stories that you have written and let us users on here read. I hope you have a wonderful day and that continue to write many more amazing stories in the future. I wish you the best!

A bit far fetched , all a bit sudden, but a good tale anyway and well worth the telling, enjoyed the emotion of it all. Five stars as per usual .

A great story. Love it. AAAAAA++++++

AnonymousAnonymousabout 2 years ago

Gave it five stars. Wished I could had given it more. Loved the emotions it had in it. I felt them as I was reading it. I found myself re-reading the lines that made me laugh. And fighting back sadness to the lines that touched me. This was a fantastic story. Can't wait to read more of them from you. Well done, Sir.

Very nice story. I enjoy most all of your stuff but this may be my favorite. Thanks for this

AnonymousAnonymousabout 2 years ago

Well paced, well written and a bit predictable — but that’s just fine. Thanks…

linnearlinnearabout 2 years ago

Wonderful as always and I enjoyed it immensely. My only issue was in the end you mentioned Laura's parents and two siblings both girls were at the part but earlier you said her father and two brothers wanted to kill Brian.

AnonymousAnonymousabout 2 years ago

I have to give Chris points for perseverance, and for his philanthropy. That he keeps it mostly hidden is more admirable. He treats everyone very well, and once he sets his sights on Laura, things develop slowly. Love his description -- his slightly hairy chest, but not a gym rat! Good story all the way around!

Damn! You’re good! ( from a 45 yr old male)

chick2206chick2206about 2 years ago

I gave you 5 stars but i absolutely hated the story. Why would you write a feel good story which makes me cry. My emotions during the story were all over the place and there was no reason for it

AnonymousAnonymousabout 2 years ago

Wow! Very well crafted. Great character development. I thoroughly enjoyed the development of of Chris and Laura's relationship. The back stories for both of them were perfect. They gave great insight to how Chris and Laura became the people they were. I loved how Laura accepted Chris for who he was and was in love with him for who he was. The "Pay it Forward" part was excellent and how Chris did it was presented the right way. No emphasis on the things he did past and present. This truly was a love story. I've edited romance stories and this is one of the very best I've read. Thank you for the opportunity for reading this story. K

Good story, well written

Your main character is definitely not of Scandinavian decent, we would never display wealth like this

Yor editor missed: "Dad was ready to kill him, so were my two brothers. But I.... " and at the end "Laura's parents and two siblings, both sisters, came along."

SouthernCrossfireSouthernCrossfireabout 2 years ago

Lovely story! After a really rocky start, they finally hit their stride and things moved really quick! From a realism standpoint, I was glad to see they took time at the end to be sure before moving forward for an equally lovely ending. An easy 5*!

AnonymousAnonymousabout 2 years ago

Incredible. I relate very very heavily to Laura. I hope to find love like this one day. In tears reading this.

AnonymousAnonymousabout 2 years ago

The ‘rich man’ trope is pretty old and overused. There is no real explanation as to why she suddenly decided to like him after being so rude in the beginning. She sure tumbled into his bed fairly quickly even knowing he was a man-slut around the neighborhood. As noted above, the ending was fairly abrupt. Not quite 5* material. Sorry.

PhotoMeisterPhotoMeisterabout 2 years ago

You really should write more romance. This was just perfect. It didn't need a lot of sex. Those kinds of stories have other categories. If others haven't read it yet, I recommend his 'Outback' story. It's longer but worth the read. Thanks again for a marvelous story!

LivingWordsLivingWordsabout 2 years ago

Great story, made even better by your decision not to include the graphic sex scene, there is plenty of that here.

Your character development has become much better (not saying it was bad) as you have published here- the characters have much more depth than your earlier stuff and the emotions really show through now.

Looking forward to your next story!

I LIKE SAPPY LOVE STORIES WITH ENOUGH SEX !!!!!!!!!

AnonymousAnonymousabout 2 years ago

Well written and romantic with a hint of eroticism - what could be better. The fact that you can spel ‘colour’ helps too.

AnonymousAnonymousabout 2 years ago

The streets of John Bunyon's celestial city may have been "paved with gold", but I had no idea the streets of suburban Oz were filled with single women.

olddave51olddave51about 2 years ago

I liked it, 5*

Just short. An epilog just let g the reader know how the neighborhood continued. Did any of the other single mothers find love? Who moves into Laura's house? Maybe Julie and Jennifer decide to have a child? Maybe he helps Sofi kick the husband out. Your story could just keep going

Way to go US, just the story that I needed to read at this time in my life journey. Very very well done, thanks so much.

DurtyBongwaterDurtyBongwaterabout 2 years ago

i truly loved this story. And throwing in some NightWish and Unleash the Archers references made this possibly the greatest story ever written.

BighornzBighornzabout 2 years ago

Really enjoyed this story, you are a mighty fine storyteller who captures the emotion of life.

Bra46Bra46about 2 years ago

You are an amazing and talented writer. I cannot express how much I enjoy your stories!

ca_daveca_daveabout 2 years ago

@Anonymous it was never said that she had 2 siblings. Yes she had said her Dad and 2 brothers were ready to kill the guy. Then later that her parents and 2 siblings both sisters were at the party. It is very possible she has 4 or more siblings. So the editor who was the author most likely did not miss anything. Either way it in no way took anything away from the story.

Damn you - making a grown man cry through most of the story. 5+!

GREAT STORY THAT NEEDED ANOTHER CHAPTER....END WAS TOO RUSHED

Nasty56Nasty56almost 2 years ago

Outstanding you have a talent for romantic stories, another chapter pls!

AnonymousAnonymousalmost 2 years ago

Does Laura have 2 brother or 2 sisters? I'm confused. Still a great story tho, even if the ending was a tad rushed

Oldsofty1961Oldsofty1961almost 2 years ago

good story only one confusing part he went from haveing washinng a vet in his driveway to picking up emily in a mustasng ? still a five story

AnonymousAnonymousalmost 2 years ago

Great story. Thank you. It's a pity you have just two romance stories. Sorry, I'm not into the rest of the subjects on which you write so prolifically. Not being judgmental, just not my cup of tea. 5*s.

AnonymousAnonymousalmost 2 years ago

Liked it was Romance. Too much drinking. The baby Katie seemed to vanish at points when the other 3 were at his house. Even knowing how it had to come out, I very much enjoyed it. Thank you.

AnonymousAnonymousalmost 2 years ago

Lol, too much drinking. Was also confused about 2 or 3 kids. Did Laura have 2brothers or 2 sisters??!! The visit to his office, flat, restaurant was over the top and poorly written.

Nonetheless great story

oldtwitoldtwitover 1 year ago

A good story nicely written and well thought out, my only concern/ complaint is why the main character has to be a rich bugger? I understand it makes it easier to get to the end but it just disappoints me!

This is one of those stories that just feels good. Also having a box of Kleenex handy is a good idea when nearing the end of the story. A solid five stars and thanks.

Superb story, very well written and wonderfully more about love than lust. I have to be honest and say that most of your other stories have categories I'm not much interested in, but you're clearly a very good writer!

We are soooo touched with words from your heart in a beautiful love story.

Yes, it’s a mushy and sweet story of nerves, hesitation, trust, and the gradual smiles opening one’s heart!!!!!

Thank you for sharing.

More please……..

AnonymousAnonymous4 months ago

Some of the writing in here felt way too fast paced for me.i also tend to find philanthropists for philanthropy’s sake characters not that interesting. But I’m a simple man and anyone willing to randomly Name drop nightwish gets a 5 no matter how I feel about anything else.

AnonymousAnonymous3 months ago

That was a sweet and moving story. You've done it again, Sin. Then again all your stories are top-notch. Chris and Laura have both had a rough run of it in the department of love and relationships. Nice to see they found each other and were able to share wonderful life together. Oh, and those damn ninjas were cutting onions again at times during this story. :')

People like his ex-fiancé especially (and his rebound ex-girlfriend to a lesser degree) are truly horrible people. I mean who casually aborts their child because they don't want to be burdened and even plans to do it again if they fall pregnant, all the while planning to only use the guy she's with for money and living the good life? Truly abhorrent behaviour from people that barely deserve to be recognized as human. Megan was just a selfish slut. Terrible, yes, but not on the level of Samantha at least. I sincerely hope to never run into anyone like those two in my lifetime.

Another Kleenex story. I love all of your Kleenex stories. Many of them make me think of what I have been missing through my life.

I enjoyed reading this even though it reminded me of the romance stories in my mother's Redbook Magazine from the 1950's. Simple but good fun.
