waifabout 1 year agoI do not care for celebrity fiction, because it is easier and safer to substitute fictional characters in the place of the real people in the author's mind. Mario Puzo did it with The Godfather. Orson Welles and Herman Mankiewicz did it with Citizen Kane. Almost every major character has been based on a person, or an amalgam of several.
Beside the danger of attributing characteristics, moral values, and actions to a celebrity that may not actually align with that person's, there is also the danger of how the celebrity's fans (who have their own subjective beliefs) might respond.
I have never listened to Lainey Wilson's music, nor have seen her perform on television, so I do not have a subjective lens of my own with which to compare your characterization of her.
With all that said, I still gave each of the three installments a 5-star rating.
Anonymous12 months agoReally hope this isn't the end, each chapter has gotten better and better in my opinion!
Anonymous12 months agoJust read through the entire story again, and while I still want more (because you made me love the characters), I do think you setup a good ending...
Always leave them wanting more I guess. :)
Anonymous11 months agoI've read most of what you have written and every story starts out with you being humble and asking people to tell you what's wrong with your writing. I've got tears in my eyes from this story, it's that good. And I'm a 61 year old dude writing this at 8am, so it ain't the wine talking. Your writing is great, don't change a thing, just keep telling stories. I'll read 'em.
SCWMen8 months agoThis was a great story. Everyone's relationships weaved well together. I enjoyed the relationship Seth had between his daughter. That can be a tough age for a father to break through. It helped that he had always been there for her and that he had strong females in his life to help raise her. Loved that Emma got to play on stage at the last concert. It gave all the feels.Also the flirting between Lainey Wilson and Seth just seemed so normal. It wasn't outrageous pick up lines, it was just moments that flowed together. The two of them made a believable pair together.
Anonymous4 months agoYou absolutely nailed this, a real story of genuine people just trying to live good lives.
Anonymousabout 2 months agoSomething about kids in a romance story seem to add richness and reality. It isn't always sex. Think of the percentage of time you spend on sex versus the time you spend doing other things. And this story balanced that. I also liked that the folks in the story weren't fabulously wealthy and successful. Just ordinary folks trying to make it through life the best way they could. Thank you.
vandeheide11 days agoA well crafted trilogy which had me in tears more than once. I will be reading more of your stories and hope they are of the same quality.
