And this is still the best ever!

Thank you for reposting it. 5 stars.

Just one little thing.....

Kept it from being perfect. It doesn't make sense that Logan would get jail time for defending himself. The police knew that he didn't start it and you didn't tell us anything worth seven years to a guy who had enough money for a good legal defense.

Everything else was a very enjoyable read. You are special.

Amazing

I love the humanity of your characters so much. They feel real. You carefully craft them and make the reader care for them. Love it. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Randy, from the bottom of my heart I thank you for posting this one! I will never quite understand why it resonated with me so much when you first published it and maybe even more so now but I will always appreciate it and rate it a 5* no matter what. And I still stand by my statement that this is the best one you ever put out, even though all of your stories are super all the time, but this one does hold a special place in my heart.

So once more thank you for resubmitting it when I needed it most!

Wonderful story

Thank you, it was a pleasure to read.

I think that I said this before.....

when I read this story before. I live and play in the panhandle of Florida and Mobile/Gulf Shores area. I love old and new muscle cars. I have several that I take to shows. I love 80% of your stories that I have read. there are a couple that I didn't agree with the perspective or topic but everyone of them are extremely well written and very good reads. You should be proud of your work as it is quite good. Anytime I see a new post with your name on it I immediately click on it to read it. Thanks for making a return so that we can enjoy your writings again. Have a great day!

@anonymous "Just one little thing."

Thank you for reading. The typical prison term for aggravated assault in Florida is five years, combine that with battery, conspiracy to commit assault and battery and a possible domestic violence charge, seven years is about right, I believe. I did consult with my Aunt, who is an attorney and has been a prosecutor. Logan did not receive jail time in the story. He was arrested at the scene of a fight, as is usually the case, then when the police learned the facts, he was released.

So, I did, indeed, tell you something worth seven years, no matter the legal defense. Conspiracy to commit crimes receives the same punishment as the actual commission of those crimes. Thanks to everyone who read and was so kind. Randi.

Thanks for posting this one here!

That was a beautiful, romantic story

It should be a made for TV movie, or perhaps the reason I could see the story was due to the powerful and evocative writing?

Mind you, always good to see an author do well. Sixth book, eh? Lucky Logan. He married well.

Trouble expressing my thoughts

You do so much for this site and are so talented I just don't know how to react.

Except to say a very deep felt thank you for all you do.

This site would only be half as good if it weren't for your efforts.

Ok, so I'm a big fan, and thank you.

Of course 5* & 😊😍😊🤩😊

This story reads just as delightfully the second time around as it did when I read it "over there." Lit readers who are new to your work will get to enjoy your older stories as you repost them here. Keep 'em coming!

You got me!

Yes, you got me again. I always love the way your story line flows. Your readers are never confused about the story or its characters. You are a great story teller. I only wondered about where he played college football and what his major was. Oh well. That is only me. 5*

Wonderful!

"Three days before Logan and Sydney were married, he was sentenced to seven years in prison" - I think this sentence was the source of the Anonymous "Just one little thing....." comment. It reads as if the "he" refers to Logan, not Roland. My apologies for not picking up on it when I read it originally. My only excuse was that I was enjoying the story too much to pay close enough attention!

I'm gonna use the same excuse for missing the "stimulating auditor"!

This story holds a very special place for me

This was the very first BR'58 story I ever read .

I actually read it on SOL because I only read in LW on Lit in those days . ( still mostly do )

But it was such a wonderful story , I immediately started reading more of your posts !

I'm so glad that you're bringing back the classics here , I hope that more readers can discover what I have known for a long time !

I simply adore that line about southern belle and southern comfort. Nice.

Cute story, but it seemed to move too fast. New favorite line is about a southern belle now; we’ll done.

Every Time I Read

One of your stories I have to wonder how much of it is autobiographical. I don't think I really want to know, just leave an old, white man with his fantasies. Signed: BTW

Please give us more!!!!

AnonymousAnonymousabout 4 years ago

There has to be more to this story. Sometimes a story is so good and, sinfully so, condensed so much it just has to spread out more and continued. This is one of those stories. PLEASE!!!

loved it!...

however, to @artful codger: ¨greatly enjoy your work

but this should have been caught¨, "She was not a stimulating auditor".

it is obvious that @artful codger is lacking in the origin of words department.

¨auditor" means LISTENER. i bet he/she doesn´t know what ´decimate´ really means, either.

randi, thank you for writing!

Every Story a winner

Randi, I came across your stories and have been blown away by the consistent high quality of your writing, and the superb editing so that the stories flow without the interruptions and diversions of the atrocious spelling and grammatical errors found in so many of the stories I have read on this type of website.

I've been going through your stories mostly in alphabetical order and have yet to come across one that does not move me in some way, whether it be tears or erections and sometimes both.

I realize I am writing anonymously but I want to assure I'm not a troll, but a senior (60+) who has been an avid reader all my life, and therefore appreciate your attention to the smooth grammatical flow of your captivating and arousing stories.

good story BUT 27 yrs. old, his own company, beautiful house, etc. etc. Really?

Stargazer5154Stargazer5154over 1 year ago

Great story, especially with the nice ending. The "magic trick" reminded me of of the time my wife did it while driving. She handed it over to me, expecting me to put it in her purse. Instead, I leaned half way out my window and hung it on the radio antenna. My left arm was sore for a week, but it was worth it hearing car horns all the way home.

Dirtyoldbiman, I had a contractor do a job for me. He was 24 years old and ran his own excavation company. He built a semi as his High school graduation project. He owns and operates backhoes, semi trucks for hauling, and on my place, used his huge D8 Cat excavator to pull out and haul away a 19,9080 lb sycamore stump for me. It is possible for young people with the drive and skill to do great things. Logan was completely believable to me.

Love your stories. I normally read LW, but after reading your story Catch of a Lifetime I've been reading your romance ones. Super story line nice pace and believable characters. I thought the ending seemed rushed but still an amazing entertaining story. High rating from me. Thanks for sharing. I'm planning to read your other romance stories. Thanks John.

Btrying2Btrying27 months ago

Went back and reread the ending from where she meets Logan’s family. Intriguing story. I just want more of them. I realize it’s been 5 years since you published this story, but I’d love more. Sydney’s relationship and interaction with Logan’s sisters is one area - they were her bridesmaids must be an interesting story; couple of times this story mentions the three of them planning to get together I’m intrigued; and they will become aunts how does that go? April the PI how did the dinner go; what did they discuss and/or decide; did Sydney ever call in the chip if so to do what; and lastly did she get enveloped in the Sydney-Logan world? Julie/Jules is another interesting character I’d like I know more about. There most be quite a back story on Logan’s attorney Audra.

I am not a creative writer and I am in awe of those who can captivate and enrich my imagination with words as you do. I surmise from what others say the story must speak to - beckon you to produce the words to bring it to life as you and other brilliant writers do. I just hope one day this story again entices you to share more.

Thanks for giving me joy while I walk with your characters. John.
