A great romance story, very different from the ones usually found here...keep up the good writing.
..but I'll say it again. Outstanding! This story was a pleasure to read, even the second time around. Thanks for the opportunity to edit! :)
They say that real men don't cry, but I say "b.s." This old man snuffled through it especially at the ending and epilogue. My wife wanted to know what was the matter. Of course, I had to say nothing.
It is truly a pleasure to read a story like this, I hope you continue writing.
This was a lot of time and effort dedicated to your
public and your story. Keep up the great work!
While generally predictable & long - it was WELL worth the time to read and enjoy. Thanks.
just the best story, a true love story
The scores are indeed high but the entertainment value compared to sleep lost by far exceeded it.<P>
Your next is anticipated - Thanks Author<P>
With Very High Regard
hugely romantic. i like the pacing of the story. its not those "they didnt met on a monday, fucked on a tuesday, and married on wednesday". usually, in those kinds of story, the couple are divorced by friday.
WOW!!, this story was great, even by your high standards. Please do not take so long to send in more submissions.
Don't know how I missed this one when it came out. Glad I found it now. A beautiful story.
I liked their physical imperfections. It's boring to read about perfect bodies all the time.
She was a really vibrant person in this story and he was a nice guy. His first wife was nuts!
that was kind of the best thing i've ever read. there has never been another story on this site that has made me laugh, cry, AND get turned on at the same time. i loved how real it was (um, except for the lottery... but oh well.)
two VERY enthusiastic thumbs up!
The most obvious thing is that, i really love this story. The personalities of characters are simply superb. The last part of the story really touched me. You will not believe but i really cried, a little, but not too much. Actually, i cried when you wrote that they died.. and their son found an card and on it was written "can you live without me?"...Well thats it, you are really great. Keep it up. My good luck goes with you.. Bye. You can write to me i you like. tushar033@gmail.com
OMG YOU ACTUALY MADE ME CRY!!!!!!!!!! AND IM A GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! jesus dood, nice...fucking nice, realy that was a SUPERB story keep writing for the sake of mankind.
I'm still wiping the tears from my eyes! Thank you for an amazingly beautiful story. I have been moved!
This was one of the best stories I've ever read! I absolutely loved it. Great story!!!!!
I was a teacher for 20 years and we've been married for 36. This is a beautiful story. Thank you.
This was one of the best amerture stories i have ever read. You should consiter publishing.
This is one of the best stories I've read off this site. It has also been the second piece of erotic lit I've ever read that's made me cry. All of it seemed very, very legitimate until the 6 kids part - but the rest truly inspired me. I'm fresh out of a two year on/off relationship and I've realized that I don't wanna hook up anymore. Because of this story I feel dreary and lovesick enough to believe that my prince charming is still out there for me. PLEASE WRITE MORE!!! You have some serious talent.
An excellent, moving story. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and will return to it again and again I'm sure. There are only two others that have moved me as much as did this one, and they are different enough that it is difficult to pick one over the other. I look forward to reading more of yours. Don't know why I haven't before now. Jerry
Extremely well written and a pleasure to read. Thank you for giving us this masterpiece
obviously on of those stories that allows for the hope that there is someone out there for everyone. truly a grand tale of the utmost sincerest love between two people.
The authors we read here at Literotica are by far the best. A great mix of story, character development, and of course sex! This story takes the already high bar and raises it a few notches. Well written, good characters you root for the whole time and a good dose of lovemaking make this one of the best i have ever read! Kudos to you sir!
Omg. I loved it. This was an amazing love story. I absolutely enjoyed every second of it. Thank you for this.
...and most realistic stories I have ever read. I actually cried. Kudos
The way he proposed to her was amazingly sweet and unexpected. The ending had a nice gentle downfall. It wasn't one of those stories that left you wondering and with a million questions. Another thing I liked was that it wasn't some porno story where they are are having sex every other paragraph while screaming cuss words at each other. By far one of the better, if not best, stories I have read on this site. Good job, very good job.
As usual, HLD leaves us excited, with a sad smile. Just another heartwarming, engrossing tale of this turbo-talented tale-teller. Wilhelm & friends
Thank You for your time, effort, imagination and writing skills. I enjoyed this story very, very much - so much, this is the first time I've ever commented at Literotica! Excellent story line, great plot device with the cards, and so well scripted and described. I found this story to be a wonder, a treasure and the time spent reading it well invested. Thank you!
As I followed this story to what I had hoped was its logical conclusion, at times I was moved to a point of tears. I held back since 'real' men don't weep. A hard job though as Jacob and Anne Marie learn about each other.
Keep up writing in this vein
Wow, one of the best stories I've read on this web site, and unquestionably the best sex scenes I've read in my life, ever! The build up was just right, as was the pacing. I really liked the idea of passing notes, and it was a great plot device. Also, nice job on revealing the contents of the notes after the fact, at the end of the scenes. What's great about these characters, too, is how you can relate to their emotional struggles and their reluctance to dive into something that might be just a rebound for him. The ending was entirely predictable, but that's OK. Also, I could've done without the epilogue, especially because I thought it was overly saccharine. Another criticism I have is that I think most women hate the words "pussy" or "tits," but that's your call as the author. Well done, overall, and now I'm excited to read your other stories!!! Bravo.
A true masterpiece would love to see a published novel! So the story can last longer. Well done you deserve all the praise!!
You have a gift and I hop you continue to let the rest of us enjoy it. One of the very best stories on this site. Thank You
That has to be the most romantic story I have read on this site. It's absolutely beautiful. You have a great talent. Don't stop writing!!!!!
I wold have to say this storie is one of the most beautiful/romantic storie's I ever read!
Wow, I just wanted to let you know how muchI enjoyed this story. It is so nice to see two such nice people as Jacob and Anne-Marie, get together. Their respective pasts were done with, and did not give them any problems. Please write more stories like this.
I loved the story it was one of the best one i have read so far
i liked it, but thought the epilogue was a little too cheesy for my taste.
great story thoughh!
Loved it - and the epilogue touched my romantic heart just the right way :)
Beautifully written, completely developed, always smooth. It flowed like a brook and rumbled like a river, always at the right time, and at the right pace.
Brilliant writing.
other then she should have kept teaching too. no complaints just coodos
Whatever it is, this story deserves it. I loved it. Thank you.
This is a well-written story, with sufficient character development, sympathetic leading characters, and engaging depth of emotion. I haven't read a story on Literotica that better contrasts erotica from pornography (or the stroke story).
Keep up the great work - can't wait to read more of your stories!
beautiful. Very well written, and not plain ole porn. Fleshed out characters, setting and tone. Has something of its own, covers the elements of a properly planned and written story quite well. Really well done. One of the very few literotica authors I'd call 'authors'; will be following your work from now on.
:-)
The Lit Grad
Beautifully composed, Thoughtfully prepared, emotive, with heart felt warmth in your characters. Thank you for the time it took to write, and for your creative talents. I look forward to reading more of your work in the near future (if you would please).
It seemed forced or awkward early on and even a bit in the middle. Then at another point roughly 2/3 or 3/4 in there was a bit where I wondered WTF was going on because there was some sort of flashback-like thing going on. It was odd.
But then, having been invested that much by the time the end crept up to me it worked out nicely. A little rushed at the end, I still found it enjoyable enough to rate it at the top.
I've read this story again, again, and again and it never fails to move me. I must have read other stories on this site that were as good--but I can't seem to recall them...
Senrab said it so well that I'll simply second the comments. A very nice job.
This is the first story I have felt compelled to write a comment about. It was captivating. GREAT JOB!!!
That was the most amazing love story I have read in a long time! It made me laugh and cry in all the right parts! I thoroughly enjoyed this story. 5 stars!
That was remarkable. Thank you for that great read.
this story is one of those that should get countless stars seriously well written and heartfelt.

I'll be sure to add the notecard ploy to my list of pick up lines.
The entire story was incredible to read, with so many points that brought the characters closer and closer together to make the romance real. Everything was so convincing that I read the last paragraph and started balling.
I cried as well. That was a really good story, thank you very much for sharing ^_^
That was a great story, and damn it I cried at the end. It takes a good story like this one to do that.5***** toby9790.
i dont like chopping onions. it brings tears to my eyes. oh, and the story was great.
This was one of the best romance stories i've read. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy because maybe there is still true love in this world. Excellent work
heartwarming story, when I feel sad or blue there a very few stories I go to for a pick-me-up. This is the best of that.
Ther no spelling or grammer issues that attract my eye
and the story itself is beyond great yet simple and homey
It was really long and took me more tan a week og reading it only a page or two when I had the chance but I really loved it it was amazing soo sweet but at the same time verry erotic and feel honored this is only the second comment I've left and I've ben reading from here for like 3 or 4 years
very well written. i just think that it is a shame that they died in the epilogue. i dont think you should have included that bit but this might just be mt opinion.
That was touching... Seriously, tears of joy piece. Nicely done.
I've read this countless times, and it still brings a tear to my eye at the end.. Just an amazing story.. Thanks so much for writing it!
VERY NICE, ENJOYED ALL OF IT.
A LITTLE LONG AND SOME OF THE SEX WAS A LITTLE REPETICIOUS, OTHER THAN THAT FOUND IT VERY NICELY WRITTEN, ESPECIALLY THE DIALOGUE.
OEP
I never comment on these, but I'm still sitting here with tears.. Loved it!!
This story was the most amazing love story. The sex was perfect and I especially love the line ' Jake and Ann Marie fucked like rabbits until she peed on a stick and it turned blue.' The end was sad because of the death of Jake, and later the death of Ann Marie, but it was the perfect end to the perfect love story. This story is simply inspiring.
I've never commented on these stories, but this is absolutely my favorite one. It's going to be very hard for others to top it. Great job!
This story was so sweet. It really brought me to tears when I was loading the pages and scrolled down and saw the last line by accident! Great job. Thank you for the story. ~<3
but to let one go is disaster, TK U MLJ LV NV
