A Home for Christmas

unique!!

I liked the way you integrated the helping theme into this story. It's a bit wordy and the first page could be tightened a little. But I enjoyed your writing style and the sex was hot!

very well done

I've seen a few attempts at incorporating the gulf coast mess into stories,,, they all seemed to be rather weak.

This story though has enough depth of character to be believable.


Very well done,,, yes indeed,,, very well done.

Nicely done

Good luck with the contest.

outstanding!

This story is an extremely well-written blend of the hurricane disaster with the aftermath, the personal tribulations, and the emotions of the Season.

You did a great job on this story. The story has wonderful plot development and as someone from Michigan and a wife of a construction worker, I can see this man going down there. The plot line was so well done, as well as the characters. You have told a tale of two needy people who have found each other.

Keep up the great work!

Katrina Construction

Very romantic and kind! I liked your characters and would like to hear more about them. You gave enough backstory on each of them to get me interested, then fleshed them out so that they seemed real. Good people finding some happiness in a disaster, and bringing some joy to a little girl. Tugged most of the relevant heart strings for me. The sex scenes were well done, any more would have distracted from the story. I didn't want to hear about them moving apart, but then again that's reality and the problem with short stories. Thanks for sharing!

Great Story

This story should continue. It really intrequed me. and had agreat plot which would be so easy to continue. keep up the great work

Beautiful

very well done, characters were believable and the story moved along nicely

Please give us a sequel

I have read and reread this story. Would love to see a sequel.

hope

You should know that I read these stories in this genre to see what they can convey as far as romance and, hope for the protagonist(s). This was Wonderful!! Thank you for the story and the persons in it. Somewhere there is a person around who will match my wishes. Do this more often,please?

Wonderful uplifting story

By no means would I consider myself a writer BUT I do know what I enjoy reading and this story was great. I would make a small comment though. You missed an amazing opportunity to paint a picture of them opening and enjoying the presents. I though you drove by this part of the story too fast. Anyhow keep these stories comin

ALAS.................

a beautiful and heart-warming story...................but alas, even at this date (12/01/2010) there are still many, many still in that same quandry from that devastating hurricane!!!!!!!!

Awwwwww!

A truly wonderful story. I truly loved it. Thank you so much for writing it.

Heartwarming Tale - Triumph over adversity and a new beginning!

Really enjoyed this story.The start of a turnaround for mother, daughter, and the lonely 'instant Santa'. Excellent upbeat story about emotional connection, family, and a rebirth. Gave it a 5!

:)

yeah 5 stars too !! you write so well !

Good stuff

This is the second time around for this one for me. It still reaches into my soul just as much as it did the first time. I agree with earlier comment that the helping theme adds tremendously to the overall story. Overcoming adversity (rather than just a straight jerk story) makes this so much better!

Keep writing as you definitely have a gift.

Couldn't give anything but a "5"...

Excellent story, well written, and HOT!!! I'm one of those old truck drivers, had been through the area just before Katrina hit, then just a few days later, I was bringing supplies down to the area... Was just unbelievable what kind of devastation that was there... Can't even believe that it was the same country... People just can't imagine the kinds of things that went on during the storm unless you saw it for yourself...

an excellent story of two lost souls finding each other as well as making her daughter happy

Unless you have been through it you can never imagine what it must be like to lose everything due to a hurricane....thankfully she was strong enough to keep going and then found love...really romantic...loved it...

A1 Prime Story............. Perfect............

Awesome

This has all the makings of a Hallmark Channel movie. Of course it would have to edited for TV and that would take out all the good parts....lol. Truly well done from start to finish.

I saw the utter and complete destruction first hand...

People just can not understand something like that unless they've seen it first hand... I'm one of those old truck drivers, I pull a refrigerated trailer around this great country of ours... I remember pulling quite a few loads of food, water, and ice down there in the aftermath of Katrina... I will never forget it... Once you've seen it, you just can't forget it...

OK MORE

OK SO WHAT HAPPENED DID THEY STAY TOGETHER DID THEY MARRY . IT SEEMS THE STORY IS NOT FINISHED.
DO YOU HAVE A SEQUEL??
