I think it is really important to have stories like this to read. Yes, it is a tragic situation and very painful indeed, but that pain brings sincerity and truth and realism that can't be denied or hidden. Nor should it! But what you have shown is that through talking, engagement, acceptance with the 'survivors' (not quiet the right word!) people/relatives/lovers can slowly begin to move on with their grief. I really liked the empathy between Dirk and Woodrow. They understood each other and each other's pain. I think you have achieved an awful lot in one chapter, and I don't believe there is a need to write any more about these characters. The story has hope and that shows progress, which for me means their encounter was blessed and perhaps endorsed. Well done and thank you for writing such an epic story. Brilliant. Chris

I think this story should be illustrated and read across the world in all schools as a way of showing prejudice. My late mum always used to say 'if you can't say anything nice, say nothing at all' and I think she's right. How can holding hands be anything other than peaceful. People just need to learn to accept we are from all walks of life and no body needs to harm anyone else. Why humankind can't live in peace I don't know. Chris England

I feel like I am a little late to the party! This story I have read in one sitting as it gripped me from the start. Very Well written, lots of twists and turns and full of pure love throughout. It was so sincere and warm, but we never found out whether Mia had a boy or a girl! I am so glad Corbin didn't have a clue about how to lite a fire and that Paul's gaydar was working so well. There love is infectious and a joy for all to see. A beautiful story and something you should be proud of. Thanks Chris England

Geoff, this whole story I have read this afternoon in one go. It has been so exhilarating and awesome. I have cried a lot along the way too. Thank you for sharing your creativity with us readers. I have really appreciated your skill. I wish all your readers all the luck and happiness they deserve. Great work - shared - makes its EPIC thanks Chris

What a beautiful, quintessentially English story. Thank you so much for writing this. Absolutely loved it all. Laughed and cried with all my other fellow readers too! Magical. Chris

Wow hitched in real life and two possible hitches to come in this story. Perfect. I am really enjoying having an english based story and love the way you write. So fluid, with a developed story line. Great work and thoroughly enjoyable. I have now read all 26 chapters and it only two me three nights! Hope there is plenty more writing left in you! Bravo.

Beautiful😍

This is so funny! It could be a BBC Comedy show. Brilliant🤣

When a plan comes together..... well written, gripping and with some strong characters. Delightful story. Thank you.

Love this story so relaxed and genuinely natural. I'm sure that there's a future for these two hunks. Thanks for the light-hearted story.

Yep sure has! I think its his haircut that does it for you......

Its amazing what can happen in life, and seemingly from beyond the grave! Wasn't sure where this story was going at first but it sure unraveled through excellent explanation. Very well written, liked the suspense and being introduced to the D/S thing - (its not my cup of tea - though) Best wishes and thanks for entertaining. Chris

Please spill why you heart is captivated by Cal? I'm intrigued now......

I have re-read this story again this afternoon. WOW. It really tugs at the heart strings all the way through. The way you capture the unconditional love between Cal and Davey is extraordinary. Its great that they have found each other and that they were meant to be together. I am in awe of them and very jealous of their love for one another. Brilliant writing, considered and heart felt, emotion and truth all poured out in a realistic way. Oh and by the way nice to have story set in England for a change too! Keep up the good work. Its so enjoyable. Thank you. Chris York England (on the day that Ellie Goulding got married in York Minister!) 31.08.2019
