A thoroughly enjoyable story to read. Thank you for sharing.

Good

It would have been nice to see this in the Loving Wives category, which needs more good stuff.

Nice.

Good. Fine. Most of all, Well written. (just suspenseful enough, just enough humor to keep a smile on this reader's face, just....just a wonderful, happy tale.)

Lovely story

I agree with a previous post that it could have been in the Loving wife category. That category needs all the levity we can put in it. Lucky for me that I recognized your name beside the title or I would have skipped the story.

Pretty good story

A bit convoluted in places but entertaining none the less. I would have liked to have read the scene where she clobbers him for being a supposed pervert and then the truth was revealed but one can't have everything. And I suspect in a court of law no Judge would rule against his seeing his daughter based upon hearsay evidence not supported by evidence. Good read. Thanks.

What a spectacularly Disney-esque story...

But I enjoyed it nonetheless...

Very well put together even if I could have enjoyed much more of it. This could just as easily have been in Romance... Though interestingly enough, I feel like I need a long hot shower with lots of soap to get the sleaze of Stevens off of me... ewwww....

Thanks for the read...

Nice job!

I would suggest possibly adding a scene wherein the lady realizes she has overreacted and injured an innocent man. The jump from being assaulted in his sleep to having a suite in the east wing is too large, adding in conversation to clear up the misunderstanding would establish their meeting and reveal their initial interest in each other.

Excellent Story

Don't worry about Anonymous 10/10/15 comment. He is just another USA redneck from one of the interior hick states who usually reads comic books. He will be voting for Trumph as President! He obviously hates the Brits since they don't speak "American". He probably couldn't get past the sixth grade.

Thank You

I enjoyed your little story very much. Thank you for sharing and am looking forward to more. As for anonymous 10/10/15-- he is an idiot.

AnonymousAnonymousabout 7 years ago
Good story

Couldn't agree more about the Anon comments from 10/10/15, obviously a moron. However they are rivaled by the idiotic comments from Anon on 06/21/16 talk about prejudices!! Anyway back to the story, I thought that the basic storyline was excellent, however it ended too suddenly. Would like to of seen more of the relationships between the good Doctor and the "princess" as well as their daughters. Gave it a 4 but would of liked to give it a 5

Good Fun

It's nice to see an author with a good sense of humor. Didn't need any sex - just tongue in cheek. Thanks, 4*

Fun read

Rather short but fun to read, it has been said that "the best revenge is to live well".

This story shows this.

Thanks for sharing

Brenda took it in the ass, both literally and figuratively!

Karma

It is a bitch. Love it. 5

AnonymousAnonymousover 4 years ago
It was quite obvious

That Brenda was a money scavenger and never loved the good doctor from the start. Would like to have seen that more developed.

AnonymousAnonymousabout 4 years ago
Comeuppance supreme...

....Always nice to see, but rarely happens. Here, it is easily devised via characteristic British understatement. 4 stars

AnonymousAnonymousabout 4 years ago
Yes

What a charming little story! 5 *s.

Good Story

Funny how "trading up" doesn't always work out so well.

Okay that made no sense. It could have been a great story though.

Nice! Burned the ex-wife to a nice crispy finish.

Well that was a hell of a lot of fun to read through a second time!

It's a good story but I can't help feeling like a middle part is missing maybe just a few paragraphs of exposition. I still rated highly.

Grab the fire extinguisher and turn on the sprinklers, Brenda is as overcooked as a Thanksgiving turkey.
